On the eve of her wedding to a minister, Catholic priest's daughter Mina (Female Coed: Sexy Dynamite's Mari Tanaka) sneaks away to a love hotel intending to cut things off with her lover Ozaki (Bodyguard Kiba's Kinji Takinami); however, they instead decide to continue seeing each other after the nuptials. Celebrating in the car afterward and distracted by a tape Ozaki has made of their lovemaking, Mina accidentally runs down Ryô (Violent Cop's Ken Yoshizawa). They speed off and only then does Mina feel remorse. When she wants to go back and drive the victim to the hospital, Ozaki cuts ties with her, going from "I love you" to "We had some fun." Mina drags Ryô into her back seat, not realizing that he is "playing dead" and has second thoughts and instead drives him to a secluded beach. Rowing him into the...

Vittorio fills his days with his clocks and watches which he has been collecting for seventy years while Sara does her gardening. They regularly take time out to tend to the rotting corpses of their nephew (Paolo Bernardi) and his wife (Francesca DeRose) who they murdered when they realized the younger couple was less interested in being a happy family than in their money. Housekeeper Maria (The Sect's Carla Cassola) discovers their secret and decides to beat a hasty retreat only to end up with...

"TwentyFourSeven" (1997) Darcy (played by Bob Hoskins) is a middle-aged man who decides to revive a local boxing gym with the main purpose of giving some hope and positive energy to the teenage boys in the area. As many of them have gone into gang violence and drugs as their daily routine, he tries to enlist the young men into joining him on the journey. He is set to teach them discipline and respect while being able to use physical strength, but there are still obstacles to overcome such as drug addiction, bullying, and trauma from broken homes. "TwentyFourSeven" was the feature film debut of director Shane Meadows, following years of shot on video shorts and the acclaimed hour long television drama "Small Time" in 1996. This was the first time he would be shooting on 35mm film, and it would be on black and white stock, which was a rarity at that time, bearing striking visual similarities to one of the greatest boxing films of all time, ...

"Women in Love" (1969) British author D.H. Lawrence's "The Rainbow" and "Women in Love" - two books that follow sisters Gudrun and Ursula Brangwen - two upper class sisters from the Midlands who mostly go against the norm of society, represented through expressionistic art, relationships with men, conflict of class, and freedom of expression. "The Rainbow" was published in 1915 and caused controversy in its native country challenging obscenity laws for its sexual content to the point that it was banned for 11 years. It was however available for purchase in America. With the controversy ensued the publishers were weary of releasing the sequel, but it was finally printed in America in 1920 and in Britain in 1921. Reception was also controversial for its frank sexuality portrayed which was not a surprise, and reactions from critics and the public were extremely negative - linked to pornography and trash. It was only after his death in 1930 at the young age of 44 that contemporary writers including ...

When her French husband Pierre has not returned for four days after a fight, Kyoko (Wolf Guy's Kumi Taguchi) takes the advice of her old girlfriend Eiko (The Horrors of Malformed Men's Mitsuko Aoi) to fly back to Tokyo to give her some time and space to think about whether her marriage is worth saving. Upon arrival, Kyoko is reluctant to resume the more intimate side of her relationship with Eiko but finds distraction in a hotel bellboy (Street of Joy's Kunio Shimizu) when no one picks up the phone at home. Eiko introduces her to Maki (Gamera vs. Gyaos' Fujio Murakami), a professor at the women's university who has developed new laws of sexuality in w...

A new all-natural sweet treat known as "The Stuff" has managed to get passed through the FDA and sweep the country seemingly overnight, with the mysterious company buying out the "Chocolate Chip Charlie" empire and on their way to driving out other ice cream and frozen yogurt companies out of business. Unable to analyze the ingredients, rival executive Evans (The Big Heat's Alexander Scourby) hires disgraced FBI agent turned industrial spy David "Mo" Rutherford (Pale Rider's Michael Moriarty) to carry out his own investigation and sabotage of the company. When looking into the FDA, he discovers that everyone who approved it have resigned and taken long vacations with the exception of Vickers (Moonstruck's Danny Aiello) who seems to have been bought off with a lifetime supply of "The Stuff" and is...

"Years before Nordic Noir took the TV world by storm with such hits as The Killing and The Bridge, writer-director Ole Bornedal had already put the genre on the map with Nightwatch, an unforgettably nail-biting thriller and the breakout film of both Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Game of Thrones) and Kim Bodnia (Pusher)." Nightwatch: Facing imminent graduation from law school, twenty-four year old Martin (Domino's Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and his buddy Jens (Pusher's Kim Bodnia) are starting to get cold feet about going into the real world despite being in relatively committed relationships with, respectively, acting student Kalinka (Fortitude's Sofie Gråbøl) and vicar Lotte (...

Orphaned prostitute's son Max (Martin Hreben) has tired of being mistreated by the traveling circus that took him in and escapes as the troupe passes through "vampire country" where he meets water spirit Alojz (Alphaville's Eddie Constantine) who trades fresh-caught fish in the village for booze. When they overhear blacksmith/amateur inventor Humschmied (Uprising's Andrej Hryc) telling the villagers that Dr. Henry Frankenstein (The Inheritance or Fuckoffguysgoodday's Bolek Polívka) is following in his ancestor's footsteps and creating a monster, Alojz and Max race to the castle ahead of the torch-bearing mob to warn the castle's inhabitants including Count Dracula (...

Architect Joe Wong (Hard Boiled's Chow Yun-Fat) is in Tibet with his ballet teacher girlfriend Ida (The Bride with White Hair's Yammie Lam Kit-Ying) looking for inspiration for an account. He starts to realize that he is being followed by a woman named Sheila (Rouge's Emily Chu Bo-Yee) everywhere he goes. While he falls off of an elephant and breaks his leg, Joe is rushed back to Hong Kong where the doctor tells Ida that there is something "problematic" about his blood; and yet, Joe's leg miraculously heals when Sheila stows away on a plane and appears at his bedside. Hiding Sheila from immigration (and Ida), Joe discover that not only does she have magical powers but so does he and Sheila reveals that he is the chosen leader of their Tibetan tribe who are being terrorized by "The Tyrant" (...

"Wake in Fright" (1971) John Grant (played by Gary Bond) is a schoolteacher assigned to a tiny schoolhouse in Tiboonda, a village in the middle of nowhere in Australia. With the school season ending for the Christmas holidays, he is ready to travel to Sydney by plane, but that means having to catch the train to nearest airport located in the mining town of Bundanyabba, or the ‘Yabba as the locals refer to it. While he is only scheduled to stay one night before leaving, he gets caught up in a night of drinking and gambling with the locals, eventually losing all of his money in the process. His stay in town is extended in which the locals are friendly to help him out, but John’s time in the town becomes a living hell for him with seemingly no way of escaping… Adapted from writer Kenneth Cook’s debut novel of the same name from 1961, “Wake in Fright� has all the elements of a psychological suspense film. One man’s madness and descent, an escape at reach but ever so far away. But it is quite different from other horror films of the same premise of be...

"The Waves of Madness" (2024) The Elder of the Seas is a lavish cruise ship sailing across the ocean with hundreds of passengers. But the ship mysteriously veered off course and a distress call was sent. Rogue Agent Legrasse (played by Jason Trost) is sent on a mission not to look for survivors, but to grab intel from the ship and deliver it to his employers. Though he is notified that there may be others looking for the same target. He is the first to find and board the ship, which is mysteriously deserted. He first encounters a young woman named Francis (played by Tallay Wickham) who asks if she could follow him and be protected, as something sinister is lurking on the ship. She is also willing to help him with directions aboard. There are other survivors encountered, but along the way there are militia forces boarding the ship, as well as the mysterious entity that is devouring everyone on board… The main draw for audiences to "The Waves of Madness" is its uniqueness as being supposedly the first side-scrolling feature film, with the entire story being p...

"No other filmmaker better embodied the spirit of the gay liberation movement than Arthur J. Bressan, Jr. (Passing Strangers, Forbidden Letters). A true pioneer of queer cinema, his films fearlessly blurred the boundaries between the artistic, the erotic, and the cinematic--especially with his final two adult films, the critically-acclaimed Daddy Dearest and Juice. Altered Innocence and the Bressan Project are proud to present these two classics of gay erotica, newly restored in 2K from their original film elements and with a host of new bonus features." The titular Juice is a bestselling gay magazine – with apparently a staff of two and one photographer – but photography Jim Bennett (The Best Little Warehouse in L.A.'s Michael Christopher) has been getting a bit too artsy for the tastes of his editor (Eric Ryan of the legendary "big budget" ...

In sexually-liberated seventies France, Gerard Casanova (Sexual Chronicles of a French Family's Yan Brian) prefers the women to come to him for seduction, so he is no gigolo but a self-proclaimed "call boy" (travel costs extra). He has some regulars like the dominatrix Baroness Desieux (Dear Inspector's Jacqueline Doyen) and her masochistic butler (Cop or Hood's Philippe Castelli), Olga who only makes love in the dark and whose face he has never seen, fun-loving Tina (Phantom of Liberty's Jenny Astruc), and widow Alice (Naked Sex's ...

"Storm Warning" (2007) Rob (played by Robert Taylor) decides to take his wife Pia (played by Nadia Farès) on a short trip by motorboat for fishing and sailing. But during their trip through the mangroves, a storm comes in and they are forced to disembark on a nearby island. They find an old decrepit house and decide to enter to take shelter and find a phone for help. They are confronted by brothers Brett (played by Mathew Wilkinson) and Jimmy (played by David Lyons) who are concerned about the couple breaking into their home. The brothers are less than respectful toward the stranded couple as they taunt and harass them constantly, but there is a much bigger issue at home. They do not want their father Poppy (played by John Brumpton) getting involved, as he is not going to tolerate the intrusion and the mess that was caused… Director Jamie Blanks studied film and wo...

"One of the Shaw Brothers Studio’s most prolific directors, Chang Cheh – or the “Godfather of Hong Kong Cinema� – is the filmmaker behind Five Deadly Venoms, Chinatown Kid and Boxer Rebellion. Collected here are two films by this maestro of martial arts cinema that showcase his considerable talents at both ends of his career: The Magnificent Trio, produced when wuxia films ruled the Hong Kong box office in the mid-1960s, and Magnificent Wanderers, made at the height of the kung fu craze at the end of the 1970s." The Magnificent Trio: Having left the border war against the Xings lead by his uncle, Lu Fang (Master of the Flying Guillotine's Jimmy Wang Yu) stumbles upon a trio of men abducting a young woman.

Wong Kar-Wai’s "Chungking Express" is a film of aching transience and restless yearning, one that captures urban alienation and romantic longing through a lens that is as impressionistic as it is emotionally sincere. Released in 1994, during the uncertain pre-handover years in Hong Kong, the film became an emblem of both its time and its director’s unique cinematic language—fragmented, deeply stylized, and hauntingly human. Divided into two loosely connected stories, "Chungking Express" eschews traditional narrative structure in favor of mood, texture, and rhythm. The first half follows a lovelorn cop, He Zhiwu, Cop 223 (Takeshi Kaneshiro), who obsessively consumes canned pineapples with expiration dates that coincide with his emotional deadlines. He crosses paths with a mysterious drug smuggler (Brigitte Lin, in a noir-soaked trench coat and blonde wig), whose stoic detachment mirrors his own emotional vacancy. The second half shifts focus to Cop 663 (Tony Leung), who is quietly unraveling after a breakup, and the quirky snack b...

"A devilishly erotic adult double-feature that contains enough smut to send unclean souls straight to hell!" Young reporter Janice Lightning (Blood Shack's Carolyn Brandt) accompanies sexorcist/demonologist Professor Ernest Von Kleinsmidt (Psyched by the 4D Witch's Kelly Guthrie) on an expedition to The Marsh outside the city where once dwelled a coven of sex-crazed Satan worshippers. They discover a parchment which Ernest takes home to translate. Reciting the words aloud, he unknowingly wakes hooded cultist Volta (Wayne Williams) who offers the gift of true pleasure to Janice's hooker roommate Diana (Lilly Lamarr), taking sexual possession of her in order to deliver souls to the devil from her clients (along with pimp Richard Zufger).

When the discover of an early-2000s pop star's (Martha Kirby) body in her bathtub pumped full of drugs proves suspicious, it puts the lie to the notion that Everybody Loves Chloe, sending Max and company delving into her relationships with her mother (London Has Fallen's Penny Downie), former producer (Trigger Point's Nabil Elouahabi), supposedly ex-junkie roommate (Poppy Gilbert), her too-solicitous downstairs neighbor (The Hunting Party's Nitin Ganatra), and even a respected MP (The Madness of King George's Julian Wadham)...

"Heretic" is a taut psychological horror-thriller from Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, the writing duo behind "A Quiet Place" (2018) and leans into minimalist suspense and high-concept terror to deliver a chamber-piece of creeping dread. At its center is a chillingly reimagined Hugh Grant, playing against type as a charismatic yet unsettling religious recluse. The film, distributed by A24, marks another entry in the “elevated horror� trend, but it succeeds in grounding its stylized premise with nerve-fraying tension and committed performances. The story follows two young Mormon missionaries Sister Barnes (Sophie Thatcher) and Sister Paxton (Chloe East), who knock on the wrong door—one belonging to a seemingly polite and inquisitive man, Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant), who lures them into what appears at first to be a theological conversation, but quickly becomes a harrowing cat-and-mouse game. The setting rarely expands beyond the interior of the...

The Golden Triangle near the Vietnamese border is a haven for heroin production and trafficking, and the Thai government has had enough of it, hiring a group of Chinese mercenaries lead by Dr. Jin Ho-geol (The Butterfly Murders' Eddy Ko) order to destroy the operation run by General Samton (Brawl Busters' Jang Il-Shik) with the reward of securing passage to America for himself and his family. They ambush the General outside his fortress and Ho-geol and three surviving surviving mercenaries (The 36th Chamber of Shaolin's Chin Yuet-Sang, Eastern Condors' Ka Lee, and ...

José Bénazéraf's Naked Sex is an odd but not uninteresting failure as an experimental work of erotic cinema. The film opens with a science fiction element as text sets the stage noting that Alain (Sexus' Alain Tissier) relates the details of his erotic life to "Elle" – "the safe haven woman, the zero woman" – who experiences them physically and psychically through the recollections of his orgasms. Aside from one or two more cutaways, the rest of the film forgets that thread; instead intercutting his sexual past with bedroom tussling and verbal sparring with mistress Rosa (The Blood Rose's Valérie Boisgel) including his high school art teacher (Nadège Millerot), a salesgirl (Successive Slidings of Pleasure...

When Yellowstone forest ranger Bob Crane (Fever Pitch's Tom Schanley) psychically senses the mortal peril of his fashion model twin sister Jessica (Nicola Perring) halfway across the globe, he travels to Milan only to discover that she is missing. None of the models staying at the boarding house Hotel Scala have seen her and she has missed four consecutive shoots, but there is no evidence to suggest that she has met with foul play. Police commissioner Danesi (Halloween's Donald Pleasance) is, however, willing to concede that something is amiss when model Carrie (Catherine Noyes) is stabbed to death with a pair of dress shears that Bob saw in his psychic vision. With models and photographers hiding their own secrets and vices, Bob constantly hits brick walls in his investigation, with only Danish model Barbara (

"Slade in Flame" (1975) Following some shenanigans by two rival rock bands leads to them being arrested by the police for their disorder. Their cell time together leads to a more positive outcome, with members joining forces to start a new band altogether. Members Stoker (played by Noddy Holder), Paul (played by Jim Lea), Barry (played by Dave Hill) and Charlie (played by Don Powell) start playing some small gigs, and are scouted by an agency run by Robert Seymour (played by Tom Conti) who is looking to make them the next big thing. The band, now named “Flame� are off on a roll with hit songs, a large tour, and going from place to place to promote their songs as well as recording follow-up tunes. But the work is relentless and pressuring, leading toward internal conflicts and rivalry from outsiders as well. British hard rock band Slade made quite an impact...

Rock band Holy Moses has just landed a gig in the township of Grand Guignol. It matters not to manager Ron (Ted Wells) that they receive a very unfriendly welcome by the town council - headed by the mayor (The Tomb's David O'Hara) and the very Southern sheriff (Scarecrows' Richard Vidan) - because they can finally get an audience with talent agent Don Matson (Alien Nation's Michael David Simms) who is stopping through. Lead singer Jesse (E.J. Curse) is unnerved by a warning from willowy teenager Cassie to stay away from the town, but his bandmates (Dr. Alien's ...

Tammy (Wild Things' Denise Richards) is a pretty and popular high school cheerleader, but all is not as it seems. Although she should have the world at her feet, she is the victim of abuse from possessive ex-boyfriend Billy (Timemaster's George Pilgrim) that prevents her from even imagining happiness with handsome and kind Michael (Joyride's Paul Walker) in spite of encouragement from flamingly gay best friend Byron (Street Knight's Theo Forsett). When Tammy one night asks Michael to come over and keep her company, jealous Wendy (Leprechaun 2's ...

The Long Kiss Goodnight (Renny Harlin, 1996) Looking back, The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) represents a fascinating convergence of New Hollywood talent. Shane Black’s script was written after the writer (and sometime actor; later director) had received praise from both critics and audiences for his handling of action motifs and noir-tinged referential dialogue with the successes of Lethal Weapon (1987) and Predator (1987). Positive reception to those films led to Black being awarded a record $1.75 million for his spec script for Tony Scott’s The Last Boy Scout (1991). Frustratingly for both Scott and Black, the finished picture bore little resemblance to Black’s script; both writer and director denounced the film after its release, claiming that producer Joel Silver had interfered with the material. Black then drastically rewrote Zak Penn and Adam Leff’s script for John McTiernan’s The Last Action Hero (1993), a project for which Black earned a cool $1 million. Black then became Hollywood’s highest p...

Massimo Dallamano's razor-sharp thriller WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO YOUR DAUGHTERS? masterfully fuses the stylized violence of giallo with the gritty realism of poliziotteschi in a thematic follow-up to his acclaimed ‘What Have You Done to Solange?’. Transforming genre conventions into vehicles for societal commentary, this newly restored film dares to expose the organized grooming and exploitation of young women – and the institutional corruption behind it. When a teenage girl's body is discovered hanging in an attic, it is District Attorney Vittoria Stori who leads the investigation. Toppling genre and period conventions, it is the captivatingly beautiful Giovanna Ralli who portrays the DA with striking gravitas, bringing both steely determination and sensitivity to the ground-breaking role of a woman heading a team of hardened police detectives. As her team- including the famed Mario Adorf (The Tin Drum, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage) - uncovers a web of high-level depravity and secrecy, a mysterious black-clad motorcyclist armed with a butcher’s cleaver begins eliminating witnesses and detectives alike. With their lives at stake, the officers race to uncover the truth before becoming the killer’s next victims. ...

Jack Nicholson (The Passenger) and Art Garfunkel (Bad Timing) star alongside Candice Bergen (Starting Over) and Ann-Margret (R.P.M.) in Carnal Knowledge, one of American cinema’s most daring and provocative films, masterfully directed by Mike Nichols (The Graduate). During their time in college, roommates Sandy (Garfunkel) and Jonathan (Nicholson) reveal their innermost feelings about girls and sex to one another, each taking his own approach to getting what he wants. As they grow older and establish new relationships, they continue to share their fantasies and frustrations about the opposite sex, each responding differently to the mixture of desire, distain and disinterest they experience. Note-perfect dialogue from the pen of the great Jules Feiffer (Little Murders) and exquisite photography by legendary Italian cinematographer Giuseppe Rotunno (Fellini Satyricon) combine with universally outstanding performances – including from supporting players Rita Moreno (The Night of the Following Day) and Carol Kane (The Last Detail) – to create an unflinching and uncompromising classic of the New Hollywood era....

Mark Burns (Death in Venice) and Beatrice Edney (Highlander) star in A Day at the Beach, a downbeat tale of alcoholism written by Roman Polanski (Chinatown), produced by regular Polanski collaborator Gene Gutowski (Cul-de-Sac, The Pianist), and shot by celebrated cinematographer Gilbert Taylor (Repulsion, Star Wars). When Bernie (Burns) takes a little girl, Winnie (Edney) – who may or may not be his niece or perhaps daughter – for a trip to a decrepit Danish seaside town on a day of heavy rain, he sets about cajoling the locals in a desperate quest for alcohol, leaving his young charge to fend for herself. The sole feature-film credit for director Simon Hesera, A Day at the Beach received scant distribution at the time of its production, but – after having been lost for decades – it was eventually revived and re-released to critical acclaim, with audiences particularly interested to discover the charismatic cameo appearances by British comedy legends Peter Sellers (The Blockhouse, Hoffman) and Graham Stark (The Wrong Box)....

From cult maestro Umberto Lenzi — the notorious architect of Italian shock cinema behind depravity classics like ‘Cannibal Ferox’ and ‘Almost Human’ - comes the long-neglected, provocative home-invasion thriller OASIS OF FEAR, where Lenzi expertly balances explicit shocks with genuine suspense. Cool, calculated, and chic. "A steamy, boundary-pushing story!" reveals Ornella Muti, the ever-mesmerising Italian screen icon (Princess Aura in Flash Gordon) in a revelatory new interview exclusive to this release. "Lenzi captures how rapidly society was changing, the freedom and the danger that came with it." Sizzling with magnetic performances, OASIS OF FEAR stars the luminous young Muti and dashing cult favourite Ray Lovelock as free-spirited hippies funding their Italian adventure by selling provocative photos of themselves. When the police shut down their operation, they seek refuge in a secluded villa owned by Barbara (Irene Papas, ‘Zorba the Greek’), a wealthy widow whose sophisticated charm hides sinister intentions. What begins as a flirtatious ménage-à-trois spirals into a claustrophobic psychological power game — where tensions, hidden motives, and shifting loyalties lead to blackmail, threats, and ultima...

Renowned as the “Godfather of Gore� for legendary cult supernatural horror films like “The Beyond� , Lucio Fulci delivers the suspense of noir with the punch of a horror film in his unapologetically brutal crime masterpiece, CONTRABAND - creating a raw, uncompromisingly visceral vision of organised crime with horror-style set-pieces - including one of the most notorious scenes in Italian crime cinema, the "melting face" sequence. Fulci lays bare the raw - and completely unromanticised - brutality of the Camorra in one of his most hard-hitting and unrelenting films, merging crime thriller with Horror’s shocking aesthetics. “It got so real that the local underworld got involved in the actual making of the film�, explains star Fabio Testi in an exclusive interview for this release. CONTRABAND stars the ever-charismatic tough-guy Fabio Testi (‘Revolver’) who delivers a powerful, career-defining performance as Luca - a tough-as-nails cigarette smuggler whose world explodes when his brother is murdered and his wife abducted. This ignites a ferocious mob war, with a ruthless new order attempting to replace the old criminal order with deadly narcotics. What follows isn’t just revenge - it’s a one-man war agains...

Dario Argentodescribes FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET as a deeply personal exploration of his inner turmoil: “I decided to let loose, go crazy, and unleash all my creativity and personal nightmares. Psychoanalysis plays a major role in the film because it’s partly autobiographical – rather Freudian, in fact.� Both Argento and lead actor Michael Brandon, in exclusive interviews for this edition, reveal how the director found his alter ego in Brandon, channelling his own paranoia to create an unsettling psychological thriller. The result is a shocking, knife-edge whodunit with a stunning twist. Introspection becomes art in Argento’s hands, making FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET essential viewing for anyone seeking a glimpse into the director’s psyche. It concludes Argento’s iconic ‘Animal’ trilogy, paving the way for ‘Suspiria’ and his later expressionistic masterpieces that earned him the title ‘Master of Horror.’ Celebrated rock musician Roberto Tobias (Michael Brandon) is thrust into a nightmare. Framed for a brutal stabbing, he soon finds himself ensnared in a web of senseless murders. The only clue to the deranged killer lies in a cryptic image captured on a victim’s retina.

In The Vampire (El vampiro), the beautiful, bereaved Marta (Welter) travels with Enrique (Salazar) to visit her sick aunt in her ancestral home. There, the mysterious neighbour Duval (Robles) offers to buy the family's decrepit hacienda. However, Duval is really Count Karol de Lavud, a vampire whose aim is to drain Marta of her blood and revive his entombed brother.
