Since 2004, Bleeding Skull has explored otherworldly cinema through reviews, books, and home video releases. We shine a light on independent genre films that have flown under the radar but deserve to be seen by all. Fangoria has called Bleeding Skull “The go-to encyclopedia for trash, bizarre, and shot-on-video cinema,” while Vice referred to it as “like a fever dream glimpse into parallel worlds". Visit us at BLEEDINGSKULL.COM.

Welcome to the 1980s TV horrorshow that never was . . . again. Set around Halloween, PHANTASMATAPES II is a psychotronic VHS mixtape that reimagines ATOM AGE VAMPIRE (an Italian mutation of Georges Franju's EYES WITHOUT A FACE) and DON'T LOOK IN THE BASEMENT (the gritty proto-slasher from filmmaker S.F. Brownrigg) as a late-nite, home-taped double feature—complete with local TV commercials and a new synthesizer score from Taken by Savages (JUNGLE TRAP). Inspired by hazy memories of channel-surfing at the witching hour, this is a nostalgic and experimental art project from the minds behind Bleeding Skull.

For even more midnight chills, grab a bundle featuring the PHANTASMATAPES II synthesizer soundtrack on cassette—limited to just 100 copies.
