MEMBERSHIP POLICIES

WE DO NOT OFFER FILMS THAT ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IN THE U.S.

ALL OF OUR MASTER PRINTS ARE EITHER ALTERNATE PRINTS OR PRINTS THAT ORIGINATE OUTSIDE OF THE U.S. AND NOT DOMESTICALLY AVAILABLE.  WE HAVE NO INTENTION OF VIOLATING COPYRIGHT PROVISIONS.  WE MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO REMOVE ANY TITLE THAT BECOMES AVAILABLE AND WILL CERTAINLY REMOVE ANY TITLE AT THE REQUEST OF ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER.  

PLEASE READ.  Submission of order assumes acceptance of these terms.

Video Screams is a mail order video/dvd Archival and Transfer service specializing in rare un-cut and uncensored, gore, horror, schlock, exploitation, WIP, Spaghetti, Mondo and XXX films from all around the world.

We do not distribute prints of films released domestically in the U.S., but offer alternative versions of films to the serious collector. We do not sell factory "pre-records" (other than those offered in our collector's clearance center) Our master prints originate from sources outside the U.S. and are not subject to the jurisdiction of American copyright laws.

We do not carry snuff, beastiality films, child porn (including, but not limited to underage actors in adult films) or otherwise banned or illegal material.  Do not ask about these types of films, we do not offer them or know of anyone who does.

Video Screams is not considered a pirate operation because the section of American copyright knows as the “Berne Act” clearly states that films unreleased in the U.S., including original versions of films altered and/or edited for release in the U.S., are not protected by American copyright. Thus, they are considered public domain or master prints that originate from sources outside the U.S. and are not subject to the jurisdiction of American copyright laws.

All VHS tapes are recorded at SP format, and in Hi-Fi stereo when available.

All DVD-R are recorded on new brand name DVD-R media region 1 NTSC

For our International Members we also offer Region FREE PAL or NTSC DVD-R

Please remember many countries have strict laws regarding the import of adult, horror, and exploitation videos. We will ship any title you order but we will not be held responsible if your customs department confiscates these tapes. Please know customs policies before ordering, for we do not offer refunds for confiscated materials never received.
