Plot Sypnosis:

The Anti-Christ has been born under the streets of New York City! Available for the first time on Blu-ray with over 12 hours of bonus content.

A vicious new street drug called Rapture is flooding New York City, and two burned-out cops are sent to trace its source. What they don't know is that the poison was cooked up by an army of demons festering beneath Manhattan--creatures who have also birthed the Antichrist! Now it's a race through sleaze-soaked streets with Satan's spawn in tow, hoping to deliver the hell-baby to the last Pastor in the city (blaxploitation legend Rudy Ray Moore) for a baptism before it unleashes hell on earth.

The most ambitious, unpredictable effort from SOV auteur Todd Sheets, Violent New Breed swings for the fences, weaving clashing storylines, a sprawling cast, and Sheets' trademark splatter and monster effects. Featuring drug deals, crooked cops, strip clubs, rituals, possessed kids and slimy births, the film channels the late-80s "satanic panic" and mixes it with Sheets' raw camcorder fury and homemade charm, creating a cracked vision of a post-apocalyptic world that plays like a summer blockbuster from another dimension.

Available for the first time on Blu-ray with over 12 hours of new and archival bonus content including four versions of the film.
