The Dungeon of Andy Milligan Collection (8Blu-ray+CD)

He's been described as "The Fassbinder of 42nd Street" (Artforum), "a celebration of hate" (Bleeding Skull) and "an unmatched voice from the underbelly of low-budget cinema" (Rue Morgue). More than a quarter century after his death, he remains perhaps the most divisive name in genre history. Severin Films now presents the cranium-cleaving collection devoted to writer/actor/director Andy Milligan - "a gay sadist who pioneered New York's avant-garde theater world and made astonishingly unique exploitation movies" (Diabolique Magazine) - on 8 Blu-rays featuring 14 surviving films from his NYC and London years, 10+ hours of trailers, outtakes, interviews & audio commentaries, a bonus CD and an all-new 128-page book by Stephen Thrower that explores the profane madness behind it all. From his provocative underground work through his international scuzz-horror classics, experience the venomous legacy of the filmmaker Time Magazine calls "depraved, degenerate, desperate, damned" like never before.

"Toga Party" (1971) - The 70s Were Tough For William Mishkin Motion Pictures. The Company Would Often Try To Reap As Much Profit From Their Tepid Offerings By Making Titles Available In R, X, And XXX Versions. "Hot Times" Became The Hotter "My Erotic Fantasies" While "The Slasher" Did The Rounds As "Penetration". This Practice Is Not Unheard Of In The Exploitation World In An Effort To Squeeze Every Possible Cent Off Films Which Failed To Find An Audience First Time Round.
