Severin Films Launches Kids Line with Legendary, Bizarre Children’s Film THE PEANUT BUTTER SOLUTION

Hot off successful releases of sleazy exploitation classics like The Beast in Heat and Byleth: The Demon of Incest, Severin Films is celebrating the Christmas holiday the only way that makes sense – by launching a new line of otherworldly children’s films! The inaugural Severin Kids title is the generation-ruining Canadian classic The Peanut Butter Solution, in a lovingly restored presentation packed with brand-new special features! The release date is December 10th, just in time to get it under the tree for the kiddos to unwrap on Christmas morn.
If you were a child in the ‘80s, you were likely traumatized for life by repeated viewings of this on cable or VHS. If you’ve never seen it, nothing can prepare you for the damage that awaits your psyche: For our premiere release, Severin Kids presents the “notoriously strange and creepy” (BeatRoute.ca) Canadian kiddie feature about burning winos, sudden baldness, psychotic teachers, suburban abductions, juvenile sweatshops and the icky concoction that grows long lustrous pubes. Mathew Mackay, Michael Hogan, and Siluck Saysanasy star in this surreal mind-roaster that Moviejawn.com calls “The real deal…It plays like an Afterschool Special telling kids their hair will fall out, peers will make fun of you, and you will be whisked away to a demented underworld where Celine Dion sings and children beg for their lives.”
The Peanut Butter Solution is also available in bundles which include Severin Kids T-shirts and enamel pins, plus a reproduction of the original video store poster!
Synopsis:
Ghosts restore a boy’s (Mathew Mackay) hair when it falls out from fright, but then it won’t stop growing.
