PRODUCT INFORMATION
After virginal teenybopper Joy is assaulted by a trio of burglars, she finds herself in an unexpected predicament: she wants more! Unsatisfied by her prudish and inexperienced boyfriend, Joy sets out across Manhattan to seduce any and every man she can find, while unwittingly setting into motion a wave of female sexual liberation that sends the entire city of New York into an orgiastic frenzy. With pleasure way up and crime way down, everyone is happy, except of course for the NYPD and stuck up Lt. Handcock, who becomes increasingly concerned that all of the carefree sex going on will put him out of a job…
A patently bizarre mix of raucous sex comedy and thoughtful commentary on contemporary mores, with hefty helping of “sticking it” to the man anti-authoritarianism, Joel Bender's (Gas Pump Girls) debut feature film, JOY, stars Sharon Mitchell (Maniac) in one of her first starring roles along with Crystal Sync (Punk Rock), Richard Bolla (Indecent Exposure), Jake Teague (A Woman’s Torment) and many others. Working from a witty and fast paced script co-authored by Bender, along with slick cinematography and tight editing, JOY is a witty, and unexpectedly heartfelt classic which makes its Blu-ray debut from Quality X, newly restored from its 35mm Interpositive and including a comprehensive slate of exclusive 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.
