PRODUCT INFORMATION
Alferd Packer, awaiting his execution on the charge of cannibalism, recounts his harrowing story of survival in the snow-covered Colorado mountains while on an ill-fated quest for riches. After being convinced by a group of gold prospectors to join their expedition, Alferd loses his beloved horse, Liane, which unwittingly sets the men on an unplanned adventure, including encounters with a group of very unusual Indians, facing off with ultra-manly fur trappers, and, of course, fudge packing, all before becoming stranded in the freezing winter with no provisions. As tempers flare and stomachs growl, the posse is forced to make the only logical decision: eat each other!
From the deranged and brilliant minds behind the international TV sensation South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s legendary feature filmmaking debut CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL is the over-the-top, all-singing, and all-dancing story of real-life Colorado cannibal Alferd Packer! Starring Parker as Packer and featuring a guest appearance from legendary experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage, this unpredictable and thoroughly unhinged musical memoir through one of the grislier footnotes in American history comes to Blu-ray from Degausser Video, newly restored from the best-surviving video and film materials; presented both from the video master plus, for the first time ever, from the only existing 35mm print, and featuring an exclusive and all new feature-length making-of documentary in addition to loads of archival extras and revealing new interviews!

Shipping
No, we only ship inside the US
Most orders for in-stock items take less than 24 hours to ship (may take longer if you place an order over the weekend). Pre-orders are shipped as soon as the product arrives. International pre-orders may not come in before the street date. This is especially true with Australian pre-orders.
We only use USPS for all shipments. If there is an issue after your order ships you will need to contact your local post office.
Product
All items that come with a slipcover will say so in the product page.
Pre-orders will not say WITH SLIPCOVER until the product comes in.
Slipcovers are not guaranteed to be in mint condition.
If you can order it, it's either in stock or a pre-order. If an item is out of stock you will not be able to add it to your cart. It's rare but our inventory may not be correct. So in some cases an item may have to be shipped separately.
Other
We do not sell bootlegs. All product arrives from the distributor or is directly from the filmmakers. All items are new and sealed. Some indie titles or signed editions may not have shrinkwrap.
