From Victoria, British Columbia and developed by long time exploitation film fan Brenin Barrow, the first major release for Shivers Ent. is the truly disturbing Canuxploitation film ‘MASSACRE UP NORTH‘.

mall town Canada.
Shivers Entertainment will be re-launching this title, 15 years after its original release.
