THE BIRDEMIC TRILOGY TAKES FLIGHT WITH LATE NIGHT CABLE'S SEXIEST HITS

Severin Films will have hearts, minds and pants aflutter as James Nguyen’s BIRDEMIC trilogy is brought together in one soaring collection, loaded with Special Features that explore, celebrate and swat with hangers what Bloody Disgusting hails as “one of the most unimaginable feats of moviemaking in the history of modern cinema.” Then Severin indulges your ‘80s softcore fantasies with THREE BETWEEN THE SHEETS, featuring the Blu-ray premieres of erotic favorites ECSTASY, BLACK VENUS and MELODY OF PASSION.

WINGS OF DISASTER: THE BIRDEMIC TRILOGY: In 2010, software salesman turned writer/producer/director James Nguyen harnessed the powers of action, adventure and environmental awareness to ask, “Why did the eagles and vultures attacked?” Nguyen’s groundbreaking BIRDEMIC: SHOCK AND TERROR soon became a global phenomenon and launched his career as The Master of the Romantic Thriller™. In 2013 Nguyen returned with his biggest budget to date for BIRDEMIC 2: THE RESURRECTION, never-before available on Blu-ray and exclusive to this collection. Nearly a decade after his original classic took flight, the auteur The New York Times hails as “a latter-day anti-genius” brought his extraordinary saga full circle with BIRDEMIC 3 - SEA EAGLE. For the first time ever, WINGS OF DISASTER: THE BIRDEMIC TRILOGY gathers Nguyen’s complete avian epic on 3 discs with 13+ hours of Special Features for a cinematic vision that remains unlike any you’ve ever seen. 

BIRDEMIC: SHOCK AND TERROR: It is a tender love story. A graphic horror shocker. An urgent ecological warning. And around the world, it became the must-see 'midnight movie' sensation of the year. From writer/producer/director/visionary James Nguyen –The Master Of The Romantic Thriller™ – comes the story of a sexy lingerie model (Whitney Moore) and a successful software salesman (Alan Bagh) on a weekend getaway to a quaint Northern California town. But when the entire region is attacked by millions of homicidal birds, their picturesque paradise becomes a winged hell on Earth. Can mankind now survive the avian onslaught of Birdemic? Hollywood legend Tippi Hendren of Hitchcock's THE BIRDS makes a Special Appearance in the global cult movie phenomenon Videogum says "might end up being the greatest film of all time!"

BIRDEMIC 2: THE RESURRECTION: Three years after he unleashed BIRDEMIC: SHOCK AND TERROR, writer/director James Nguyen – The Master Of The Romantic Thriller™ – was given the biggest budget of his career and literally ‘went Hollywood’ for the insane sequel: When an award-winning movie director (Thomas Favaloro) meets a struggling young actress (Chelsea Turnbo), their budding romance will be disrupted by giant jumbo jellyfish, hostile cavemen, unconscionable dancing, gratuitous nudity, incongruous zombies, endless ammunition and hordes of prehistoric eagles and vultures that rise from The La Brea Tar Pits to attack Los Angeles. Alan Bagh, Whitney Moore, Rick Camp, Steven Gustavson, Patsy van Ettinger and Damien Carter of the original BIRDEMIC co-star in this staggering depiction of ecological horror and independent filmmaking, filmed on location in Tinseltown and the Universal Studios backlot.

BIRDEMIC 3 - SEA EAGLE: With full creative control restored, writer/director James Nguyen goes back to basics to complete his immortal action-adventure eco-terror vision. As The Reprobate proclaims, “there is so much madness at work here that nothing seems impossible”: When global warming triggers climate chaos along the Northern California coast, two scientific researchers will discover tender romance, sudden wealth, awkward dancing, appalling CGI, space elevators, automatic weapons and a plague of sea eagle attacks that could lead to the extinction of life on Earth. Ryan Lord and Julia Culbert star – along with the return of Alan Bagh and the ever-engaging musical stylings of Damien Carter – in the film Hi Def Digest hails as “a five-star blast…it reiterates how much fun a filmmaker and his actors can have by returning to their home base.”

THREE BETWEEN THE SHEETS: Indulge your ‘80s fantasies with two softcore classics produced by Harry Alan Towers (99 WOMEN, Franco’s COUNT DRACULA): In BLACK VENUS, former Miss Bahamas Josephine Jacqueline Jones (LOVE CIRCLES) leads a sumptuous orgy of Victorian lust co-starring Florence Guérin (FACELESS), Karin Schubert (BLACK EMANUELLE), Helga Liné (BLACK CANDLES) and Profumo Affair temptress Mandy Rice-Davies. Drive-in goddess Tiffany Bolling (THE CANDY SNATCHERS) stars in ECSTASY – also known as LOVE SCENES – as a Hollywood actress caught between reel passion and her own erotic hungers that include Britt Ekland, Julie Newmar, Monique Gabrielle and Jack Carter. As a Bonus, Austrian centerfold Sonja Martin (RED HEAT, EMMANUELLE IV) stars in MELODY OF PASSION from director Hubert Frank (VANESSA), with all three features scanned in 2K from their original negatives.
