Lionsgate Home Entertainment has announced that they will be releasing the tongue-in-cheek vampire film Sundown: The Vampire In Retreat on Blu-Ray for the first time as a part of the Vestron Video Collector’s Series on August 17, 2021. The film stars Golden Globe® nominee David Carradine (2005, Best Supporting Role – Motion Picture, Kill Bill: Vol.2), Maxwell Caulfield (Grease 2), Morgan Brittany (Gypsy), Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead), and Golden Globe® nominee Jim Metzler (1983, Best Supporting Role – Motion Picture, Tex).
Synopsis: The road to Purgatory is paved with good intentions, and Count Mardulak (David Carradine) wouldn’t have it any other way. He’s seeking atonement for centuries of human carnage, which is why he’s instructed Purgatory’s vampire residents to slather on SPF 100 sunblock, pursue daytime activities…and drink only synthetic blood. But some vampires don’t agree with Mardulak — they want the real thing — and if that means wooden bullets flying in a vampire civil war, so be it! This wild horror-comedy also stars Bruce Campbell, Maxwell Caulfield, M. Emmet Walsh, and John Ireland.
