Vinegar Syndrome goes Halfway to Black Friday with THE CARDONA COLLECTION VOL. 1 (review)

Three of prolific Mexican exploiation filmmaker Rene Cardona Jr.'s pictures are showcased in THE CARDONA COLLECTION VOL. 1.  In TREASURE OF THE AMAZON, gold miners, a former Nazi, and oil prospectors converge on the Amazon in search of treasure but run into cannibals and headhunters instead.  In THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE, a family on a yachting trip fall victim to strange deaths when their daugther rescues a creepy-looking Victorian doll from the ocean.  In CYCLONE, tourists exploring a coral reef are thrown off course by a storm and must consider cannibalism when no help reaches them.
