The Blu-ray disc of Vinegar Syndrome's 2-disc set contains Sweet Sixteen (1983) in both its original theatrical and international versions, newly restored in 4K from the original camera negative. In the small Texas town of Sun Valley, all the boys are going crazy for the new girl, Melissa. Beautiful and confident, and still a few days shy of her sixteenth birthday, she has caught the eye of men and boys alike. But things take a sinister turn when the boys she gets involved with start turning up dead, viciously stabbed in a series of seemingly frenzied knife attacks. It falls to Sheriff Dan Burke to investigate the perplexing rash of killings, aided by his eager, mystery-loving daughter Marci. With the townspeople eager to point the finger at the local Native American population, can Burke figure out why all the boys are quite literally dying to be with Melissa before even more blood is shed?
