The BluRay:

Secta Siniestra (Bloody Sect) comes on a 25 GB single layer BluRay. The film is presented in a 1080 progressive widescreen. The transfer for this release was newly scanned & restored in 2k from its 35mm original camera negative. The source used for this transfer is in great shape and any print related debris is minimal and never intrusive. Colors are nicely saturated, flesh tones look correct, image clarity and black levels look solid throughout, grain remains intact and there are no issues with compression.

This release comes with one audio option, a DTS-HD mono mix in Spanish and included with this release are removable English subtitles. The audio is in great shape, dialog comes through clearly and everything sounds balanced.

Extras for this release include, a reversible cover art, a promotional stills gallery (poster/home video art/lobby cards) and an audio commentary with film historian and author Kat Ellinger.

Topics discussed in the audio commentary include, Spanish horror/slasher cinema, director Ignacio F. Iquino, her thoughts about Secta Siniestra (Bloody Sect), how there’s a lack of information about the film’s distribution/home video releases, the cast and screenwriter Juan Bosch.

Also, included with this release is a DVD that has the same content included on the Blu-Ray included as part of this combo. Overall Secta Siniestra (Bloody Sect) gets an excellent release from Vinegar Syndrome, recommended.

Note: This special limited edition embossed slipcover (Earl Kessler Jr.) is limited to 2,000 units.
