THE LADY IN RED KILLS SEVEN TIMES – Also Known As LA DAMA ROSSA UCCIDE SETTE VOLTE – RED QUEEN KILLS 7 TIMES – THE CORPSE WHICH DIDN'T WANT TO DIE – FEAST OF FLESH – BLOOD FEAST
Directed by Emilio Miraglia in 1972, Starring Barbara Bouchet, Marina Malfatti, Maria Pia Giancarlo, Pia Giancaro, Ugo Pagliai, Marino Mase and Sybil Danning.
A gothic family legend may just come true for Kitty Wildenbruck! It seems that every 100 years one of two sisters kills the other and the dead victim returns to kill seven people! The surviving sibling is saved for last, a victim of the ultimate revenge! Now, Kitty has killed Evelyn by accident and with the help of her older sister and gimp husband hides the body in a secret room in the cellar. A year later, the murders start with Kitty's husband being the prime suspect! Red herrings abound bring to the surface many family secrets, despite the continuing murders, in this fantastic golden-age giallo. Beautiful slow motion shots of the killer in a red cloak running towards the next victim, violent murders, blackmail, the curse over the family fortune, nudity, and a very young Barbara Bouchet as Kitty Wildenbruck! From the director who brought you the excellent The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave and featuring an incredible musical score from Bruno Nicolai, it's hard not to highly recommend this outing to even the most jaded gialli fans! We now bring you this very rare and exciting film completely uncut, widescreen, and in the English language with Greek subtitles.
BLASTFIGHTER – Also Known As FORCE OF VENGEANCE
<>Directed by Lamberto Bava in 1984; Starring Michael Sopkiw, Valentina Forte, George Eastman and Michele Soavi Michael Sopkiw is “Tiger” Sharp, an ex-cop fresh off the block after serving eight years for blowing the brains out of the smirking psychopath that murdered his wife. Now he just wants to retreat to his cabin in the woods and relax. Not going to happen. He starts by adopting a baby deer he finds alone in the woods, but the local yokels decapitate the animal in his car while he is buying it some milk and a baby bottle. Conflicts between Sharp and these overly-aggressive poachers escalate steadily and quickly but it really hits the fan after his best friend is killed, his daughter’s boyfriend is killed, and his daughter, whom he is seeing for the first time in years, barely escapes being gang-violated and killed. Now we have action, lots of it, practically non-stop! And oh crap is it violent! Redneck dip-shits are strangled, set on fire, blown to pieces limb by limb, and with increasing frequency as the movie rolls on! Sopkiw really stands out, as usual, as the stone-faced protagonist and Eastman is fun to watch as king-hillbilly-bad-guy. Honestly, everybody does fine with what they are given but nobody was reaching for tremendous emotional depth here! Just kick back, relax, and enjoy the carnage! The soundtrack by the De Angelis brothers is as cool here as it would be in 85’s Massacre In Dinosaur Valley. There’s lots of talent on both sides of the camera and though it all might seem rather brain-dead, it’s certainly never boring. Besides that, this is another great title to play ‘catch the cameo’ with! Somewhere between Southern Comfort and Hunter’s Blood… Blastfighter finds a home. Many versions are cut to 87 minute; now you can enjoy Blastfighter uncut at nearly 92 minutes and in the English language with Japanese subtitles.
WELCOME TO ARROW BEACH – Also Known As TENDER FLESH – AND NO-ONE WOULD BELIEVE HER
<>Directed by Laurence Harvey in 1973; Starring Meg Foster, Laurence Harvey, Stuart Whitman, John Ireland and Joanna Pettet The free-spirited and beautiful Robbin Stanley (Foster) is a wandering hippie who tries her best to stay out of trouble and just wants to travel and see what’s around. After catching a ride with a hopped-up druggie that ends disastrously (police pursuit and subsequent crash), Robbin just wants to take it easy on the beach and relax for a little while. It turns out that this area, Arrow Beach, is privately owned and she has inadvertently trespassed on land belonging to one Jason Henry (Harvey). He seems to be a pleasant sort of fellow, though, and invites Foster up to his house for a real meal and some proper rest. As it turns out, Henry is a very disturbed individual; a veteran of the Korean War who now lives with his sister Grace (Pettet). Together they fight Henry’s sickness… The uncontrollable desire to murder women and eat their flesh! Robbin narrowly escapes this ugly fate but upon reporting her experiences to the police, finds that nobody believes a single word of it. For our innocent young heroine, the worst is yet to come! Neglected and all but forgotten through the years, Welcome To Arrow Beach is a stylish and horrific excursion into the mind of a madman that deserves to be acknowledged! Some prints of this title are cut by up to 15 minutes! We are very proud to offer you the completely uncut version of this entertaining exploitation classic in the English language with Dutch subtitles.
GREEN INFERNO – Also Known As PARADISO INFERNALE
<>Directed by Antonio Climati in 1988; Starring Mario Merlo, Fabrizio Merlo, Jessica Quintero, Sasha D’Arc and Bruno Corazzari
First things first… Many have called this a cannibal film. Well, there is no cannibalism, there are no cannibals, and there are no such references in the entire length of the movie. Generalized comparisons to that genre hold no water either. As an example, early in the proceedings our heroes are distracted from their goals by an animal in trouble and go out of their way to save its life! The worst you’ll endure is the non-gratuitous death of a boar and a bunch of monkey’s that are manhandled while being captured alive so they can be donated to a center that uses its proceeds to help those in need! The central plot involves a lost professor and the obsessive reporter who believes he is still alive somewhere in the Amazon. With the help of an aspiring anthropologist, a pilot, an all-purpose water-skiing tough guy, and even the occasional completely mad loner, our endlessly driven heroine sets out to locate and/or save the missing researcher. Along the way they encounter all manner of nasty individuals; pirates that drug and box up native children for shipping to other countries so their organs can be sold (!), treasure hunting bandits whose greed knows no limits, and vengeful natives who don’t appreciate their monkey’s being stolen! Those treasure hunters believe our heroes can lead them to tremendous riches and as a method of torture (to get information) break out an incredibly large snake to castrate one of the leads with. This movie is filled with such set pieces (The flesh-eating fish is crawling into his what?!) and, although not often over-the-top, there is a little gore (F/X courtesy of Paolo Ricci) and plenty of violence on display. In the end, Green Inferno is a rousing and competent adventure featuring a very, very, cool soundtrack by Maurizio Dami! Entertaining and even a little surprising (especially considering the previous work of the semi-infamous director), you can now enjoy Green Inferno uncut (Other releases are missing footage!) and in the English language with Japanese subtitles.
That's it for this update!
