PRODUCT INFORMATION

While on a solo hunting expedition, Dan (Jeff Forsyth) accidentally shoots and kills a fellow hunter. With no one in sight for miles aside from a lifeless scarecrow in a nearby field, he buries the hunter deep in the woods to conceal his misdeed. One year later, Dan returns to the cabin with his buddies for a weekend of hunting and partying. Unfortunately for his oblivious friends, an evil entity in the form of an axe-wielding scarecrow promptly returns for vengeance upon their arrival. After finding his companions dismembered, disemboweled, and displayed like hapless trophies, Dan must survive until dawn in a frantic fight for both his life and sanity.
In 1998, Syracuse, New York based filmmaker Jerry O’Sullivan combined the concepts from two of his early Super 8 shorts to create a eminently exciting and entertaining Evil Dead inspired, SOV killer scarecrow romp. Starring fellow Syracuse micro-budget filmmakers Ron Bonk (The Vicious Sweet) and Jeff Forsyth (Children of the Sky) alongside the inimitable indie legend Sasha Graham (Addicted to Murder, Polymorph), Gut Pile triumphs with its impressive practical splatter FX and mind-boggling, Raimi-inspired camera gymnastics. Saturn’s Core is proud to present Gut Pile, newly restored and jam packed with a veritable trophy wall of new and archival special features including (for the first time ever) the Super 8 short films that helped inspire its creation.

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.
