Blue Sunshine (1978) - Standard Edition Coming March 10, 2026

The wait is over! Jeff Lieberman's paranoid masterpiece of '70s horror returns to Blu-ray in a new Standard Edition, hitting shelves March 10, 2026.

Ten years after dropping acid at Stanford, former flower children are losing more than just their hair—they're losing their minds in homicidal rages. As bodies pile up and bald psychopaths multiply, disgraced politician Jerry Zipkin (Zalman King) races to uncover the terrifying truth behind Blue Sunshine, the legendary LSD that's coming back to haunt an entire generation.

This trippy slice of post-Watergate paranoia perfectly captures the hangover of the hippie era, delivering unforgettable imagery of chrome-domed killers and a deeply unsettling commentary on the dark side of the counterculture. Lieberman's singular vision combines conspiracy thriller tension with visceral horror, creating one of the most distinctive genre films of the late '70s.

The Standard Edition brings this cult classic back into print with Synapse Films' signature attention to quality. Full specifications and special features to be announced soon.

Can't wait until March? We have limited quantities of our Blue Sunshine 4K UHD 3-Disc Limited Edition available now—grab one while supplies last!

Mark your calendars: March 10, 2026. Because sometimes the past comes back... without its hair.
