2-DISC COLLECTION
THE WORLDWIDE BLU-RAY PREMIERE
INCLUDES THE THEATRICAL AND DIRECTOR’S CUTS
WITH 5+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES

In 1985, movie-obsessed entrepreneur Richard Horian – who’d made his fortune inventing a vinyl record cleaner sold at K-Mart – wrote, produced, directed, edited, scored and starred in the film that redefines vanity projects forever. With a cast that includes Eric Douglas (son of Kirk/brother of Michael), Marlon Jackson (of The Jacksons) and Susan Scott (Playboy Playmate of the Month, May 1983) as troubled high school students, along with Oscar® nominee Ronee Blakley (NASHVILLE) and a deliriously sincere lead performance by Horian himself, THE COUNSELOR was retitled and released in 1987 by Troma Entertainment to scathing reviews and savage dismissal. Nearly four decades later, this misunderstood masterpiece of auteurism can now be experienced on two discs with the Theatrical and Director’s Cuts scanned in 4K from their original camera negatives – which Troma had been instructed to destroy by the director – plus over 5 hours of revealing Special Features that include the first-ever on-camera interview with Horian, the complete podcast The Vanity Project and much more.
