Todd Sheets has quite a unique spot in the horror genre! It's fascinating how certain filmmakers can build a dedicated following over the years, especially with projects like "Violent New Breed" that really tap into the DIY spirit of horror. The special edition Blu-ray release sounds like a great way to shine a light on his work and introduce it to new audiences. Do you think this release will attract fresh fans to Sheets’ films or mostly cater to the long-time followers?
 
The gore looks so raw because of the VHS quality. I love how Visual Vengeance doesn't try to polish it too much—they keep the amateur feel that makes these movies special. Todd Sheets clearly poured everything into this. Getting emotional at the end? I can believe it. These zero-budget passion projects hit different sometimes. Definitely adding this to my cart.
 
I remember seeing Zombie Bloodbath on a bootleg years ago and thinking it was one of the goriest things ever made on home video. Violent New Breed sounds even crazier. The fact they got a slightly bigger budget and still kept that raw edge is impressive. Love that they included the disclaimer at the start—gives it that extra sketchy vibe. This blu-ray package is packed. Might have to blind buy it.
 
Nah this movie looks way too nasty for me. Demons raping women and instant gooey births? Hard pass. I get the passion and the history behind it, but some things are better left in the past. Respect to Visual Vengeance for archiving it though. At least collectors get their fix without hunting rare tapes.
 
Finally someone giving Todd Sheets his flowers. The guy made like 20 movies on almost nothing and they're all bonkers. Violent New Breed having Rudy Ray Moore is perfect casting—he fits right into that over-the-top chaos. The remaster from original tapes must look way better than the old VHS copies floating around. This is the kind of blu-ray that turns casual horror fans into deep divers. I'm in.
