There’s always a fear when a bunch of new people move into the neighborhood at once. The normal fear is they’ll take up all the good spots on the street. But there’s also a fear that they’re part of a religious group looking to start their version of Utopia on your street. Bryan Love You is a found footage film based on a true story. The movie stars Tony Todd (Candy Man) and George Wendt (Norm of Cheers). The Blu-ray finally comes out in March. I’m excited that Wendt has a nearly 45-minute-long interview about making the film. Here’s the press release from MVD Entertainment:

| SETH LANDAU’S CULT “FOUND FOOTAGE” HORROR MOVIE ‘BRYAN LOVES YOU’ MAKES ITS LONG-AWAITED DEBUT ON BLU-RAY FROM JAL SMITHTOWN VIA MVD ENTERTAINMENT GROUP. POTTSTOWN, PA – February 3, 2022 – MVD ENTERTAINMENT GROUP IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE DEBUT OF THE CONTROVERSIAL 2008 CULT CLASSIC “BRYAN LOVES YOU” ON BLU-RAY COMING MARCH 2022. In the early 1990s, a 32-year-old psychotherapist (Seth Landau, Take Out) began to suspect that his small Arizona community was being taken over by a homicidal religious cult known as “The Bryans”. His entire ordeal was captured on camcorder footage and security tapes. This is what was recovered. George Wendt (“Cheers”, House), Tony Todd (Candyman), Tiffany Shepis (Abominable) and Daniel Roebuck (The Fugitive) co-star along with cameos by Lloyd Kaufman (Guardians of the Galaxy), Chuck Williams (Bubba Ho-Tep), Bobby Slayton (Bandits) and scream queen Brinke Stevens (The Slumber Party Massacre) in this disturbing chiller based on the 1993 true story that shocked America. Director Seth Landau says “Bryan Loves You is my take on the dangers of homogenous thinking, and also a very personal story about my experience growing up in rural America and being forcibly admitted to a mental hospital as a child. I think the movie is more relevant today than ever before, as our lives are increasingly tracked, recorded and monitored. If you resist what the big machine wants, it can be quite dangerous. I’m thrilled to be working with Eric D. Wilkinson and MVD Entertainment on the Special Edition Blu-ray and digital re-release of my film. There aren’t many companies nurturing and caring for cutting-edge independent film. I’m lucky and fortunate grassroots guerrilla cinema can still exist in 2022 through MVD.” Bonus Materials· NEW! 2022 Audio Commentary with Writer / Producer / Director Seth Landau· 2008 Commentary with Writer / Producer / Director Seth Landau, cast and crew along with JoBlo Writer/Critic James Oster, Elissa Dowling and Professor / Religious Expert Dr. Phillip Baker· NEW!
