"the inserted scenes are very short and have been inserted and adjusted from a good quality SD source, unfortunately those scenes are not available in HD, like in the case of Shootfighter. we are very content with the result..."

Näyttää siltä, että "COMPLETELY in HD" on hiukan harhaan johtavaa tietoa, kun tosiaan Unrated kohtaukset (noin 5sekunttia) on SD lähteestä.

The funniest movie I have seen in a long time – Roger EbertIn 1988


John Cleese, former Python and the mastermind behind Fawlty Towers, teamed up with the veteran Ealing Comedy director Charles Crichton (The Lavender Hill Mob) to produce another classic of British comedy.

"Cleese plays Archie Leach, a weak-willed barrister who finds himself embroiled with a quartet of ill-matched jewel thieves – two American con artists played by Jamie Lee Curtis and Kevin Kline, Michael Palins animal-loving hitman and London gangster Tom Georgeson – when Georgeson is arrested. Only he and Palin know the whereabouts of the diamonds, prompting plenty of farce and in-fighting as well as some embarrassing nudity and the unfortunate demise of some innocent pooches Nominated for three Academy Awards and winning one for Klines outstanding supporting turn as the psychopathic Otto, A Fish Called Wanda has stood the test of time, earning its rightful place among its creators remarkable comedy pedigree."

"Besides the color correction (removing the yellowishness) we also made the following corrections and adjustments to create our 161 Minute cut of the Theatrical version" :

1. The flip cut transition/optical wipe from "Tuco talking to Blondie and taking a bite of his cigar to being hung" was restored to its original version

2. The fadeout to black of the "gun shop owner with the sign in his mouth" scene is now a cut to exodus scene.

3. The fadeout of the "Blondie passing out as Tuco is bringing him water" scene happens exactly 1 second later than how it was on old MGM DVD release of the Theatrical Cut.

4. The dissolve from "night" scene to "coach arriving at the mission" scene now fades up from black.

5. The shot of the train leaving the station (with Tuco and Wallace on it) was supposedly longer in the US theatrical cut, before cutting directly to Tuco in the train and not dissolving out earlier to the early morning camp scene – Our 4K of the 161 minute cut matches the old MGM DVD of the theatrical cut exactly.

***NEW TITLE ANNOUNCEMENT! Zavvi EXCLUSIVE SOCIETY STEELBOOK!***


Good news! SOCIETY will be getting the SteelBook treatment!

Limited to 2,000 copies.


"IT IS A MATTER OF GOOD BREEDING. REALLY."


Spot Gloss On The Title Treatment


After producing Stuart Gordons hit Re-Animator, Brian Yuzna (Bride of Re-Animator, Return of the Living Dead III) turned his hand to directing with 1989s Society, and gave birth to one of the ickiest, most original body horror shockers of all time.

"Teenager Bill Whitney (Billy Warlock) has always felt like the odd one out in his wealthy, upper-class Beverly Hills family. For some reason, he just doesnt seem to fit in. But his sense of alienation takes a sinister turn when he hears an audio recording of his sisters coming-out party, which seems to implicate his family and others in a bizarre, ritualistic orgy. And then there are the strange things hes been seeing glimpses of people with their bodies contorted impossibly out of shape Is Bill going mad or is there something seriously amiss in his neighborhood?"


Packing stomach-churning grue and thought-provoking social commentary in equal measure, Society is a biting horror satire which culminates in one of the most gag-inducing climaxes in all of horror history.

Booklet: Collector's booklet featuring new writing on the film by critic Alan Jones, illustrated with original archive stills and posters.

Dark Age – Numunwari – uhka menneisyydestä (1987)




88 Films has detailed its upcoming Special Edition of cult Italian director Joe D'Amato's film Anthropophagous (1980), starring George Eastman, Tisa Farrow, Saverio Vallone, Zora Kerova, and Serena Grandi. The release will be available for purchase on August 7.


Synopsis:

"Perhaps the most notorious 'video nasty' of all time, Anthropophagous is back to deprave and corrupt a fresh wave of horror film viewers! Joe D'Amato cemented himself into genre film history with this slickly directed, and sinisterly suspenseful, creature feature which has some unprepared tourists arriving on a desolate Mediterranean island only to find themselves stalked by a silent cannibalistic Neanderthal! Featuring gory special effects, that convinced some British moral guardians that Anthropophagous was a legitimate 'snuff movie', there is little doubting that this timeless terror totem still holds up today."


Special Features and Specs:


· NEW 2K restoration of the film from the original 16mm negative

· Uncompressed English Audio

· Uncompressed Italian Audio with newly translated English subtitles
