Blue Sunshine [4K UHD]

The Cult Classic Restored Like Never Before

It started as a party—eight friends gathered at a secluded lodge. But when one of the guests suddenly snaps, launching into a shockingly violent rampage, terror grips the room. There’s something wrong with his hair… and something pure evil in his eyes.

What he does to three of the girls is unspeakable.

Falsely accused of the brutal murders, Jerry Zipkin (Zalman King, Red Shoe Diaries) flees. But as more bizarre killings surface, all involving people losing their hair and turning into deranged killers, Jerry uncovers the horrifying link: a potent hallucinogenic drug called Blue Sunshine—taken a decade prior—is warping minds and turning its users into psychotic murderers.

A nightmarish blend of paranoia and psychological horror, Jeff Lieberman’s 1977 cult classic is now fully restored in 4K from the original camera negative, presented in Dolby Vision HDR and packed with hours of extras in this 3-disc limited edition set from Synapse Films.
