In the small English town of Newton, a pharmaceutical company’s experiments with a new vaccine take a disastrous turn when a laboratory accident triggers an outbreak of a deadly virus. With head scientist Dr. Adams missing, and the authorities eager to keep the incident under wraps, Captain Kirk is drafted in to try to get the situation under control. When horrifically mutilated bodies start turning up, drained of all their blood and bearing strange radiation burns, the awful truth soon becomes clear - Dr. Adams has been transformed into a blood-drinking mutant and is on the rampage! With the area under quarantine, the pressure is on Captain Kirk to track down and eliminate Dr. Adams before the authorities take drastic action.
An Italian/Spanish co-production helmed by director Tonino Ricci (Cave of the Sharks, Rush), appearing under his regular pseudonym Anthony Richmond, BAKTERION (aka Panic) is a good old-fashioned monster-on-the-loose romp starring Euro horror regular David Warbeck (The Black Cat, The Beyond) and Swedish starlet Janet Ågren (City of the Living Dead, Eaten Alive!). Featuring plentiful scenes of monster mayhem, including the creature running amok in a movie theater and terrorizing a group of choir boys in a church, the celluloid scientists at Vinegar Syndrome are thrilled to unleash BAKTERION from the laboratory in its world UHD premiere, restored in 4K from the original camera negative and accompanied by a host of new bonus features.
