In an early announcement to retailers, Massacre Video is preparing 'Diary of A Deadbeat: The Story of Jim VanBebber' for Blu-ray on April 12.
Jim VanBebber, an uncompromising, underground, outlaw filmmaker from Greenville, Ohio has become one of the most infamous and controversial American independent filmmakers of our time.
