Mondo Baltimore hosted a screening of Robin (1979), which will likely be released by Reviver.

Filmed in several CT locations, about 2 Vietnam vets (Robert De Niro and Ed Harris), one of whom falls in love with the other's sister. Seems to be owned by Lionsgate. There was a German Blu-ray in 2009, though.

That picture definitely looks like an US Army helmet from the Vietnam War era.
So this could point to a deal with Lionsgate.

At least there are a few suitable titles for the mainline of Vinegar Syndrome:

The Possession of Virginia (1972)
Death Weekend (1976)
Junior (1985)
The Sleeping Car (1990)
Metamorphosis: The Alien Factor (1990)
Black Magic Woman (1991)
Servants of Twilight (1991)
Pinocchio's Revenge (1996)
Carnival of Souls (1998)
Strangeland (1998)

If they have a Lionsgate deal, I could see them do the Sometimes They Come Back sequels.

Paperhouse is a major one. More Abel Ferrara, too (China Girl, one of his very best)

Anyone know whether, if I order something the day before the store closes for the sale, it will be eligible for Add To Order during the sale? (I think it's safe to say it won't ship before the sale, lol) I want to pick up a title that's low stock but don't want to miss it in case it sells out on Tuesday...

I think I tried doing that once and they managed to ship it out right away so that I couldn't add anything to that order

Don't forget Mike Figgis' Megadoc. There's a disc release of the making of documentary than the actual film.

LIonsgate deal confrimed. It remains to be seen how many titles have been acquired. Perhaps they'll say something on Punk Vacation: An Unofficial Vinegar Syndrome Podcast.

I imagine both versions will get a North American release eventually

There is a European disc that even includes a commentary

They really love Mike Figgis. I hope we’ll get Timecode

It's so frustrating that Megadoc gets a U.S. blu-ray release while this film it's about the making-of still hasn't

Any guesses about what the hell Reviver 4 is?

The pitch for Reviver 4 reads like "this time it's an actual good movie". I dunno, bro.

And now for what you’ve all been waiting for: hints for what’s left to come in 2026!

February — world UHD debut of an early film from an iconic (perhaps the most iconic) director of the New Hollywood

March — blu-ray upgrade of an often overlooked 70s crime film

April — world blu-ray debut of a truly strange 90s genre film from an Oscar nominated writer/director

May – two releases: the world UHD debut of an early film from one of America’s most important, and controversial, filmmakers; and the world UHD debut of an eccentric entry in the career of one of America’s most prolific auteurs

July — world UHD debut of a forgotten 90s studio movie, presented in two cuts of the film (if not three), for the most exhaustive release it has ever had

August — our first box set of three feature films (four if you include a feature length documentary in the extras), all blu-ray debuts of films from the same filmmaker

September — our first double feature, of world blu-ray debuts, pairing two films from a noted American iconoclast

October — world UHD, and blu-ray, debut of a 90s indie that hasn’t had a disc release since 2000

November — world UHD debut of one of the great American films of the 70s
With the August release being delayed and with Jacknife being the September release which doesn’t correspond to any of the clues as far as I can tell. Does that mean the box set is coming in October?
