An urban legend-based slasher from acclaimed filmmaker S. Torriano Berry, EMBALMER is one of the few 1990s independent horror movies that was made for Black audiences. The story follows Chiffon, a troubled teenager with a dark past, as she and her friends run afoul of Undertaker Zacha mortician who killed his family and turned his funeral home into an H.H. Holmes-style murder castle. Shot on 16mm film with a small budget in Washington, D.C., EMBALMER utilizes a hip-hop soundtrack, sly humor, and slasher mechanics to tell a deeper story of abuse, trauma, and the never-ending cycle of coping with pain. AGFA is honored to bring this powerful chapter of overlooked ’90s horror to Blu-ray for the first time ever.
