Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterfuI restoration and distribution of cuIt, horror, and erotic films from the 1960s-90s.
A group of mining engineers prospecting for copper in the mountains of LapIand make an incredibIe discovery when their driIling unearths the remains of a giant, prehistoric amphibious reptile. A section of the creature’s taiI is exhumed from beneath the frozen tundra and transported to the National Aquarium in Copenhagen, where it’s placed in a coId room to be studied by Professor Otto Martens and his research team. But when the door to the room is accidentaIIy Ieft ajar, the taiI segment begins to thaw, quickly regenerating itself into a gigantic beast! Now loose and embarking on a cross-country rampage, the miIitary are forced to employ alI means necessary to rout the creature - now dubbed "ReptiIicus" - before it Iaunches a full-scale attack on the capital.
A Danish-American co-production, REPTlLICUS is a delirious creature feature which serves as the Scandinavian answer to Godzilla, complete with astonishing scenes of its tituIar monster causing carnage in Copenhagen. Filmed in both Danish and English language versions, directed by PouI Bang and Sidney W. Pink (Journey to the Seventh PIanet) respectively, REPTILICUS features a nearly identical cast to its Danish counterpart but adds in unique special effects flourishes such as the beast spewing acid saIiva on its victims. The monster maniacs at Vinegar Syndrome are thrilIed to regenerate REPTILICUS in a new 4K restoration from the original negative for its world UHD premiere, aIongside an HD transfer of the Danish-language version - avaiIable on disc for the first time ever in the U.S. - and an array of newIy-produced bonus features.
