Sweatshop, director Stacy Davidson's ode to old violent school slashers, is finally coming to DVD in an unrated North American edition on September 13th, courtesy Screen Media Films.
Synopsis:
In Sweatshop, Charlie and her friends break into an abandoned warehouse to set up the biggest rave they've ever thrown. Little do they know, an enormous, hulking beast lurks in the shadows - filled with rage and brandishing a pulverizing foundry hammer. It isn't long before the kids are in a fight for their lives against this behemoth and his ghoulish minions, who will stop at nothing to snuff them out, one-by-one.
Packed with the latest industrial music by Android Lust and Lucid Dementia, featuring a sexy cast of up-and-coming talent (including Psychic Experiment's Peyton Wetzel and The Final's Julin), Sweatshop is more than just an homage to the slasher films of the 70s and 80s that inspired it.

Over at the MySpace blog for the independent “smasher film” Sweatshop, the moviemakers have announced that a prequel in comics form will be released to tie in with the feature. It’s titled Sweatshop: Hide And Shriek, and you can see the first image below the cut.
Written by Sweatshop scripters Stacy Davidson (who also directed the movie) and Ted Geoghegan, Hide And Shriek explores what happens to hot young couple Brandi (played in the movie by ViVi Sterling) and Ghost (Fernando Phagabeefy) when they enter the titular dwelling of the Beast (Jeremy Sumrall). Thomas Mason, whose credits include Freddy Vs. Jason Vs. Ash and Wolverine, created the art. Hide And Shriek will initially be released to the press and then on the convention/film festival circuit, and will be included as an insert when the movie hits DVD and Blu-ray.
