A box set DVD collection of the underground hit trilogy “Amateur Porn Star Killer” has just been announced and will be released by Cinema Epoch. An early 2010 seems likely though no set date has been revealed.
The trilogy began just a year and a half ago when the first APSK hit stores in November 2007. Director Shane Ryan made the film back in 2004 but just weeks before the first film was finally released he shot APSK 2 (released May 2008) and followed that with APSK3 (January 2009). The entire trilogy was made with just 75 bucks on a cheap DV camcorder and has sold thousands of DVD’s since its release.
Ryan follows his dark and disturbing trilogy with “Amateur Porn Star Killer 3D: Inside the Head”, a parody of his own APSK films. The movies became very much loved or hated by critics and audiences and Ryan challenges both in a joke about himself, the films, and the people who critiqued them. Production wasn’t as easy for the 3D film, however, with an original release date set last winter the film will more likely hit stores this winter. Anywhere from being held at gunpoint by the police, to running out of money, has halted production, but Ryan says “that’s fine with me. In the meantime I can finally make something else.” The director never intended to make a sequel, let alone 3 sequels, so the delay has given him a break to make the upcoming “Warning!!! Pedophile Released” and “Statick”, both due out at the end of the year.
It’s still up in the air about what exactly will be included in the box set. It will contain the APSK Trilogy, as well as 1-2 other films. Most likely the 3D film, though another film sold exclusively in the box set has been talked about. You can send your thoughts and opinions to [email protected]

Press Release: Amateur Porn Star Killer boxed set
I got sent this from Alter Ego Cinema, and since you have to go through hoops to email me press releases, I might as well post them because, hey, free articles! and because some of my readers would be interested in this even if I am not, as I am not a big horror fan. They even sent me something else I’ll post later in the week.
