The Kiss -1988- Dvdrip Oldies Dual-audio Jun 2026

Whether you are revisiting the movie for nostalgia or discovering its parasitic thrills for the first time, The Kiss (1988) remains a masterclass in late-80s practical horror—and its dual-audio digital formats keep its global legacy alive.

A co-production between the United States and Canada, "The Kiss" was filmed in Montreal in 1987 with a budget of $2.5 million, but it managed to gross only $1.9 million at the box office upon its release by TriStar Pictures on October 14, 1988 [7†L19-L33]. It was a financial disappointment and received mixed to negative reviews from critics. However, over the decades, it has found a dedicated following for its audacious tone, memorable gore effects, and the fantastic performance of Joanna Pacula as the predatory antagonist [15†L28-L29]. Film critic Harry M. Benshoff has even argued that the film serves as an allegory for the AIDS epidemic of the late 1980s, adding a layer of scholarly interest to the otherwise silly proceedings [7†L36-L40].
