PRE-ORDER SYLVIA KRISTEL 4-DISC BLU-RAY/DVD & HARDCOVER BOOK WEB EXCLUSIVES

Tuesday 2nd November 2021 - posted by Eric_Cotenas

Cult Epics proudly presents the Sylvia Kristel 1970s Collection, featuring four of the legendary Dutch icon’s most diverse films in new 2K transfers and entirely uncut, for the first time on home video in the United States.

Released in 1975, Alain Robbe-Grillet’s surreal, absurdist sado-masochistic drama Playing with Fire (Le jeu avec le feu) features Sylvia in one of her most challenging roles alongside Jean-Louis Trintignant, Anicée Alvina and her Emmanuelle co-star Christine Boisson.

The set’s two Dutch films are co-starring Rutger Hauer, and Sylvia at the peak of her career. Submitted for the 1978 Academy Awards – Best Foreign Film, Wim Verstappen’s Pastorale 1943 is a war drama centered on the Dutch resistance during World War II, and features also the debut of Renée Soutendijk. Painter turned director Paul de Lussanet’s romantic psychological drama Mysteries, based on the world-famous novel by the Norwegian Nobel Prize winner Knut Hamsun and shot by renowned cinematographer Robby Müller, also stars Rita Tushingham and David Rappaport.

Filmed and released right after Sylvia became one of the world’s biggest stars as Emmanuelle (1974), Sigi Rothemund’s 1974 film Julia is a German sex comedy drama, with Sylvia as a young boy’s first love, foreshadowing her later U.S. commercial hit Private Lessons.

THE BROKENWOOD MYSTERIES SERIES 7 RETURNS ON DVD, UK DIGITAL & BOX SET

Monday 13th September 2021 - posted by Eric_Cotenas

Time for a trip down under, back to the town of Brokenwood, New Zealand, where the population is small, and the murder rate is high, as The Brokenwood Mysteries returns for a seventh series and delivers another slew of gripping murder mysteries. Following its run on UKTV’s Drama Channel, Acorn Media International brings the much-loved show to DVD and digital as The Brokenwood Mysteries Series 7 and the full bumper box Series 1–7 Box Set on 18 October 2021.

This delightful Kiwi mystery drama follows Detective Mike Shepherd (Neill Rea, Go Girls) who arrives in the seemingly sweet and sleepy town of Brokenwood. Arriving in a classic car, with a country music collection and an indeterminate number of ex-wives, Shepherd is joined by his by-the-book assistant, DC Kristin Sims (Fern Sutherland, The Almighty Johnsons). It’s not long before Shepherd discovers that Brokenwood is full of secrets and suspicions... From mysterious murders to secret societies, alongside gruesome goings-on, killers lurk between the shadows in the seedy underbelly of this town.

Series Seven sees Brokenwood C.I.B’s finest, D.S.S. Mike Shepherd and his associates, back for more enthralling investigations. This curious team of detectives work together with a warm camaraderie and deadpan humour against the background of sublime small-town New Zealand and must investigate fresh murder cases including the demise of an antiques show host, a death at a health retreat and a killing at a farmer’s market.

Featuring a soundtrack of Mike’s favourite soulful country music to match the rural setting, each series contains six enthralling stand-alone, feature-length murder mystery cases.

Murder lies just around the corner in The Brokenwood Mysteries.
