As the constraints of censorship began to see in the late 1960's and early '70's, visionary French filmmaker Jean Rollin created a series of mesmerizing thrillers that injected the Gothic vampire film with a more contemporary strain of eroticism. Fluctuating between visual poetry and shocking violence, Rollin's deeply personal films have come to be recognized as classics of the horror genre, and are presented here in deluxe editions, mastered in HD from the original 35mm negatives, and accompanied by printed essays by Tim Lucas (Video Watchdog).
This box set contains:
THE RAPE OF THE VAMPIRE
THE NUDE VAMPIRE
THE SHIVER OF THE VAMPIRES
REQUIEM FOR A VAMPIRE

The zombie comedy schtick has been done to death at this point, but I know Synapse wouldn't waste their time releasing a movie that sucks, so I trust Reel Zombies will be worth a look.
Independent underground filmmakers Mike Masters and David J. Francis
(playing themselves) are eager to complete the third film in their
ZOMBIE NIGHT film trilogy, a series of rather unsuccessful low-budget,
shot-on-video gore fests. The problem, however, is a recent zombie
apocalypse has taken over the world since their series began. The dead
are rising from their graves and eating the living... for real this
time! Masters and Francis embark on the production of their newest
masterpiece anyway, only to discover shooting in a post-apocalyptic
world offers many unforeseen challenges. Instead of giving up, they
decide to capitalize on the cannibalistic catastrophe. No need for latex
and fake blood when there's an entire world of flesh eating undead to
add realism to their film, and help save money on special effects costs!
Touching upon the real-life headaches of low-budget filmmaking, with
numerous nods to the zombie film genre, REEL ZOMBIES is a satirical
mockumentary feature that dives head-first into self-parody and an
improbable but inspiring lesson in film craft proving that passion and
dedication can overcome all obstacles even the ones that want to chomp
your brain out! (Simon Laperrière, Fantasia Film Festival)

Abigail Breslin (Ender s Game, Zombieland) stars in HAUNTER, a
unique take on the traditional haunted house story from director
Vincenzo Natali (Splice, Cube). In 1986, teenager Lisa (Breslin) and her
family died in their home under sinister circumstances. Unable to move
on, their spirits continued to roam the house during the intervening
years. Now, over a period of six days , Lisa must reach out from beyond
the grave to help her living counterpart Olivia avoid the same fate that
Lisa and her family suffered long ago. Uniquely unsettling and
shocking, HAUNTER is a one-of-a-kind reverse ghost story that chills
long after the final frame.
Haunter is currently available on Amazon at the suspiciously low release date price of $10.

Impulse continues their wildly popular Nikkatsu Collection with the absurdly titled Nurse Girl Dorm: Sticky Fingers from director Yoshihiro Kawasaki.
There's a new group of young ladies working at St. Elizabeth Hospital
and they're all looking for love. These nurses are watched over by a
fairly strict dorm supervisor, but with the help of the mysterious Yuki,
they are able to sneak in their boyfriends at night. Yuki is a terrible
influence on the girls, but she sure knows how to have fun! When a
bandaged man walks into the hospital looking for Yuki, her past is
revealed. His name is Tadao and he was secretly married to Yuki. He
wants to rekindle their failed relationship, but she has other ideas. On
one strange night, the boyfriends, Tadao and many others all converge
at the hospital for the evening. NURSE GIRL DORM: STICKY FINGERS mixes
madcap comedy and jaw-dropping scenes that only Nikkatsu studios could
unleash.

Also from Impulse is the less ridiculously (though still ridiculous) titled Sex Hunter: 1980 from Toshiharu Ikeda:
Miki, a young and talented ballet dancer is accepted into an exclusive
and very private academy run by a mysterious woman named Kaibara Akiko.
Miki wants to further her dance education and rekindle her relationship
with her boyfriend, but soon discovers all the horrible things forced
upon the academy students. She is subjected to constant torture and
realizes there may be no escape! With similar tones to Italian horror
maestro Dario Argento's masterwork SUSPIRIA, SEX HUNTER: 1980 is one of
the more controversial entries in the Nikkatsu Erotic Films Collection.
