Cobbled together with loose change by George Romero's friends, EFFECTS is a mesmerizing D.I.Y. frightmare that no one talks about, but everyone should. A group of coked-up filmmakers -- including Tom DAWN OF THE DEAD Savini, Joe DAY OF THE DEAD Pilato, and John TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE: THE MOVIE Harrison -- gather in Pittsburgh to make a slasher. As filming begins and accidents happen, it's clear that something isn't right. And no one can be trusted. Landing somewhere between SNUFF and a student film by John Carpenter, EFFECTS is a meta-enhanced takedown on the philosophy of horror that doubles as a sleazy and terrifying movie on its own. Bonus features include: New 4K scan from the only 35mm theatrical print in existence, BEASTIE short film, Archival commentary track with John Harrison, Dusty Nelson, and Pasquale Buba, UBU short film, Liner notes by Joseph A. Ziemba of AGFA and Bleeding Skull!, AFTER EFFECTS documentary with optional commentary track
