PRODUCT INFORMATION
When he was a young boy, Chris’s entire family was slaughtered during one of his father’s archaeology digs at a remote monastery, nestled deep in the mountains of Yugoslavia. His father’s assistant was arrested for the murders and consigned to a psychiatric hospital. Still plagued by nightmares about the incident as a man, Chris resolves to tackle his demons headfirst by returning to the monastery, where he hopes to complete his father’s quest of unearthing the tomb of Ilok - a torture-obsessed child prince who, legend has it, made a pact with an ancient Slavic demon for eternal life. But no sooner has the excavation gotten underway than Chris starts behaving erratically, becoming obsessed with locating the tomb and teetering ever closer to the brink of bloody madness…
From Smart Egg Pictures, one of the key financiers behind the original A Nightmare On Elm Street (not to mention the production company responsible for 1985’s hair metal horror Blood Tracks), 1989’s PLAYROOM - released in some territories as Schizo - marks the directorial debut of Manny Coto (Dr. Giggles). Featuring a gloriously demented lead performance from Christopher McDonald (The Black Room, Happy Gilmore), alongside noted character actor Vincent Schiavelli (One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest), and culminating in some unexpected and hugely entertaining creature effects, Vinegar Syndrome is delighted to dust off PLAYROOM for its world disc debut, in a brand new 4K restoration from 35mm negative elements and accompanied by a host of newly-produced bonus features.

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.
