In his only known film performance, Gary Wallace plays Paul, a lonely man who, on a fateful night, is involved in a car crash with an old man that leaves him with a mysterious houseguest in possession of a jar containing some sort of creature. The old man disappears, but the jar stays behind — and with it comes an onslaught of inexplicable hallucinations plaguing Paul at every turn. 

Though foolishly in the past tossed aside as a “poor man’s Eraserhead” or other such silliness, The Jar is an astonishingly singular work of harrowing personal expression that will in equal parts confound, enrage, enrapture, endear, and eventually swallow you whole if you let yourself plug into its otherworldly wavelength. 

Previously only available in abysmal VHS rips, Terror Vision is proud to present this undersung stunner fully restored from a partial camera negative & the director’s personal 35mm print to finally present it in the correct aspect ratio and all its delirium-inducing glory!
