When Kao refuses, the prince has his soldiers execute her and tasks Sorcerer Bat (Iron Monkey's Yuen Shun-Yi) with killing him. Kao manages to fight his way out of the palace, taking the prince's son hostage. In escaping, however, Kao accidentally strangles the child. Years later, Kao is a broken drunk looked after by his adopted nephew Shu Gan (The Postman Strikes Back's Yuen Yat-Chor) - named after the prince's son whose medallion he now wears – who has ambitions to learn fighting skills to join the army in order to better provide for his uncle. When Kao wonder...

A small village outside of England has been the site of six bizarre and brutal murders of young men, all completely drained of blood with superficial external injuries and fatal internal ones. Inspector Quennell (Curse of Frankenstein's Peter Cushing) thinks the killings are the work of a maniac; however, when a seventh body is discovered by coachman ('s ), the witness goes stark raving mad claiming to have seen a creature with red eyes and giant wings. Apart from the dismissive local doctor, Quennell's only scientific advisor is entomologist Dr. Mallinger (The Horrible Dr. Hichcock's Robert Flemyng) who hosts a weekly colloquy for his students at his country seat Clare House; however, Mallinger also dismisses the idea of a giant eagle strong enough to kill an able-bodied man. Mallinger has reasons to be evasive, however, as he is carrying out experiments with rare, large...

"Late Night with the Devil" (2023) It was October 31st, 1977 in which the late night talk show program "Night Owls" produced their infamous and tragic final episode.

During the Qing dynasty, corpse herding was the practice of using black magic to animate corpses that have died away from home in order to more effectively transport them back to their families. The corpses are considered jiāngshī, or vampires, not due to Western notions of blood drinking but because they can be dangerous if their herders lose control of them. Young Zhengyuan (Dirty Ho's Wong Yu) spends as much time herding corpses as he does resisting the charms of Feifei (The Blood of Heroes' Cecilia Wong) and herding his own master Chen Wu (The 36th Chamber of Shaolin's Lau Kar-Wing) who spends most of his time in local gambling dens between jobs. Chen Wu is able to put off the latest trip despite family complaints and Zhengyuan's concern about the state of the ...

In London on an internship, lithe Venetian blonde Carla (Ukranian model Yuliya Mayarchuk) realizes that she needs more private digs since her boyfriend Matteo (Jarno Berardi) is on his way to join her at the end of the school term. She patronizes an estate agency belonging to Moira (Frivolous Lola's Francesca Nunzi), but she is more interested in what Carla is not wearing under her skirt and gives her "preferential treatment" in the form of a ridiculously spacious loft along the Thames ("She's kind of lesbian-like and gets the hots," Carla explains to Matteo).

"Querelle", directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, is an adaptation of Jean Genet's novel "Querelle de Brest". The film stands out as one of Fassbinder's most controversial and divisive works, often praised for its audacity and critiqued for its overt stylization and abstraction. It delves into themes of sexuality, betrayal, and the complexity of desire, set against a backdrop of a gritty, surreal port town. The film's narrative revolves around Querelle (Brad Davis), a sailor and drug smuggler, whose journey into the depths of his own sexuality and morality is marked by murder, betrayal, and lust. Fassbinder's approach to these themes is unflinchingly direct, presenting a world where traditional moralities are subverted and replaced by a complex interplay of power, control, and submission. One of the film's most striking elements is its visual style. Fassbinder uses highly stylized sets, bathed in lurid, artificial lighting that evokes a sense of theatricality and otherworldliness. This choice creates a dreamlike atmosphere, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy, which is ...

George Lazenby, in a career-defining departure from his role as James Bond 007 (On Her Majesty’s Secret Service), delivers a powerful, gutsy performance in Aldo Lado's chillingly disturbing giallo masterpiece, WHO SAW HER DIE? Lazenby portrays Franco Serpieri, a sculptor recently separated from his wife (Anita Strindberg). He invites their young daughter, Roberta (Nicoletta Elmi), to spend time with him in an autumnal Venice. As father and daughter joyfully make up for lost time exploring the city, their idyllic bonding is shattered when Roberta becomes the target of a dangerous child-killer lurking in the city's foggy canals. Consumed by grief and driven by a thirst for justice, a tormented Franco embarks on his own investigation, uncovering vicious depravity in the highest echelons of Venetian society controlled by a Machiavellian art-dealer Adolfo Celi (Largo in 007’s Thunderball). Bearing striking and uncanny similarities to Nicolas Roeg’s later film, Don’t Look Now, Lado’s WHO SAW HER DIE? delves into a father’s haunting guilt within a spellbinding giallo mystery. Enhanced by Ennio Morricone's eerie score and Franco Di Giacomo's (The Good, The Bad & The Ugly) evocative cinematography, now properly revealed in this defin...

FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON 4K-RESTORED BLU-RAY ALL REGION COLLECTORS LTD EDITION Director Luigi Bazzoni’s unique vision of ‘FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON‘ is brought to life by the striking cinematography of Vittorio Storaro (three-time Oscar winner including ‘Apocalypse Now’). Florinda Bolkan (‘Flavia The Heretic‘) delivers a masterful, nuanced performance bringing captivating depth to the character of Alice – a young translator grappling with memory loss. Tormented by nightmare visions of a sinister scientist (Klaus Kinski) deliberately abandoning astronauts to die on the Moon, Alice is struggling to recall three missing days. A mysterious postcard beckons her to the enigmatic island of Garma. Once there, an unsettling revelation unfolds: the inhabitants recognise her presence during the unaccounted-for days, not as Alice, but as another person named Nicole. Confronting uncomfortable truths, Alice embarks on a quest to unravel the mystery shrouding her identity and the events of those missing days – a quest which culminates in murder and an extraordinarily surreal finale. Touching on mental health issues as well as on climate change, it resonates with today’s challenges while immersing viewers in an emotionally charged experience th...

El Santo, the Silver-Masked Man, rides into the Wild West in Santo vs. the Riders of Terror (Santo contra los jinetes del terror), a unique blend of gunplay and lucha libre action.
