![Beyond Evil [Blu-ray/DVD Combo]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71lJbm6eX3L.jpg)
Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterful restoration and distribution of cult, horror, and erotic films from the 1960s-90s.Architect Larry Andrews and his glamorous wife, Barbara, have just arrived on a Filipino island where Larry, and his business partner Del, are completing work on a new luxury condominium building. Del reveals that he's found them the perfect island home: a centuries old mansion nestled next to the forest. The only problem is that local legend has it that the mansion is haunted by an evil witch named Alma Martin, who was murdered by her adulterous husband, only to rise from the dead and kill him, along with anyone else who comes near her cursed property. As the Andrews settle in, Barbara begins to sense a strange presence surrounding the house and is slowly possessed by Alma's vengeful spirit, who is determined to use Barbara's body as vessel for her to re-enter the world and soon demonstrates that she has no concerns over murdering anyone who tries to stop her.The second film directed by Herb Freed (Graduation Day), BEYOND EVIL is a gothic inspired supernatural horror film, taking liberal inspiration from the castle-set Italian chillers of the 60s, but with a healthy dose of early 80s sleaze, including creative kills and outrageous optical effects. Starring John Saxon (Black Christmas) and Linda Day George (Pieces) and featuring a lush score by Pino Donaggio (Dressed to Kill), Vinegar Syndrome is proud to bring BEYOND EVIL to Blu-ray, newly restored in 2k from 35mm archival film elements.Bonus Features:1.

Thought I'd really like this one because of the premise and the cast
Thought I'd really like this one because of the premise and the cast. The special effects were a real turn-off for me, and i have a rather high level of forgiveness for such things. This was 3 years after the star wars and close encounters; they could'a done better.Lynda Day George did nothing but get on my nerves the entire movie; The crazy should have been brought a little bit harder.John Saxon delivers a good performance and is shirtless a lot. He also wears many painted on lacoste shirts...no complaints here.Many of the other actors aren't all that great, but the setting is nice and believable. And there is a car scene that made me chuckle a few times.Movie of the Week type fare if your in the mood for such a thing. Watchable for the fashion of the day.

Dull and Forgetable Low Budget Horror Film
Not much to say. Couple moves into haunted house, possession occurs, people die, resolution occurs. Its just bland overall. No gore, no suspense, no tension. The special effects are terrible. Acting is about what I'd expect from this type of movie, mediocre. It does have John Saxon so that helps. Otherwise not the worst, but very forgettable horror film.

The picture it self was probably good in it"s time, but not the kind of horror that I am use to.It should be reconditioned or something, picture quality was bad.
