STUCK ON VHS: Strangers in Paradise (1984)

Sundays in January we will be highlighting a few titles that are considered to be "stuck" on VHS, with no physical releases since the format (discounting VHS transfers on DVDs, etc.) for various reasons, i.e. legal ownership disputes, music licensing issues, or perhaps just perceived lack of interest.

From the back of the box:
"Award-winning filmmaker Ulli Lommel, maker of such scream greats as THE BOOGEYMAN and BRAINWAVES, brings the outrageous adventure STRANGERS IN PARADISE to the screen. KEN LETNER (DEAL OF THE CENTURY, GOING BERSERK), stars as the warped leader of a group on a mission to reform the corrupt youth of California.

Staggers (LETNER) has mobilized an enormous group of overly concerned parents in the lazy suburb of Paradise Hills. With the help of the "Repentogram," a machine used to adjust behavior patterns, Staggers attempts to take over their minds.

It's a riotous extravaganza that combines the lunacy of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW with the street smarts of REPO MAN! California won't ever be the same after a visit from the STRANGERS IN PARADISE!"
