Film Fanaddict News : Jean Rollin's RAPE OF THE VAMPIRE, REQUIEM FOR A VAMPIRE and DEMONIACS coming to Blu-ray/DVD May 29!
Posted by Film Fanaddict on 2012/5/5 11:42:25 (51 reads)

Open in new windowKino Lorber and Redemption Release Jean Rollin's The Rape of the Vampire (1968) on Blu-ray and DVD in new HD Masters!

Following the Blu-ray releases of five films by French cult filmmaker Jean Rollin, Kino Lorber and Redemption are proud to announce the release of three erotic horror films made during the prime of Rollin's career: The Rape of the Vampire (1968), Requiem for a Vampire (1973), and The Demoniacs(1974).

These three films come to Blu-ray and DVD mastered in HD from 35mm negatives. Each disc comes with a special 16-page booklet with an essay by Tim Lucas, editor ofVideo Watchdog. Each one has a street date of May 29th, with individual SRPs of $24.95 for the Blu-ray, and $19.95 for the DVD.

Each Blu-ray and DVD comes packed with special features, providing an illuminating look at these unique films. Bonus features on the discs include a special introduction by Jean Rollin, deleted scenes, documentaries, interviews with Rollin's collaborators, trailers, and - on The Rape of the Vampire disc - two bonus short films directed by Jean Rollin. (See below for details of special features included on each disc).

The Rape of the Vampire (1968)
"A psychiatrist (Bernard Letrou) ventures to a remote castle to convince a brood of four vampire sisters that they are misguided, brainwashed by superstitious villagers, and not truly creatures of the Supernatural. The villagers (including director Jean Rollin) confuse and abuse the sisters, before finally storming their castle. The cast descends on a hospital run by a young doctor (Jean-Loup Philippe), charged by the Queen of the Vampires (Jacqueline Sieger) to discover a cure for vampirism. The bewildering action culminates in a "blood wedding" presided over by Sieger, in her regal hot pants, on the legendary stage of the now-defunct Theatre du Grand Guignol. The shoot was anything but professional. Everyone on the crew was making their first film. All copies of the script managed to get lost within two days, which quickly forced the production into improvisation mode. Rollin opted to let the film become what it wanted to become. It was in the spirit of the times to experiment. The resulting film, The Rape of the Vampire (Le Viol du Vampire) is a glorious puzzlement, like nothing else in the horror genre." (excerpt of the essay by Tim Lucas)

French with optional English subtitles

Film Fanaddict News : THE THEATRE BIZARRE coming to DVD 4/24/12
Posted by Film Fanaddict on 2012/4/4 11:24:08 (121 reads)

Open in new windowImage Entertainment presents a horror anthology like no other with its release of The Theatre Bizarre. The film was directed by seven veterans of the horror genre including Richard Stanley (Hardware), Buddy Giovinazzo (No Way Home), Tom Savini (Night of the Living Dead (1990)), Douglas Buck (Sisters), Karim Hussain (Ascension), David Gregory (Plague Town) and Jeremy Kasten (The Wizard of Gore (2007)). This boundary-pushing film featuring stories of ancient evil, love, obsession, addiction, gluttony, sexual nightmares, pain, brutality and of course, death, is now available On Demand with cable and satellite providers, and will be available on DVD April 24, 2012.

Down a seedy city street, a young woman is obsessed with what appears to be a long abandoned theatre. One night, she sees the front door slightly ajar and impulsively decides to sneak inside. But there in the vast, eerie auditorium, a show unlike any other unfolds before her eyes. Its host is an odd marionette-like man who will introduce her to six tales of the bizarre: A couple traveling in a remote part of the French Pyrenees crosses paths with a lustful witch; A paranoid lover faces the wrath of a partner who has been pushed to her limit; The Freudian dreams of an unfaithful husband blur the lines between fantasy and reality; The horrors of the real world are interpreted through the mind of a child; A woman addicted to other people's memories gets her fix through the fluid of her victims’ eyeballs; And a perverse obsession with sweets turns sour for a couple in too deep. But as the stories unfold, something strange is happening to the woman. Something irreversible and horrific. Something that awaits its next audience in The Theatre Bizarre.

The Theatre Bizarre enjoyed a successful 2011 festival run, screening at Fantasia International Film Festival, Frightfest, Sitges Festival De Cine Fantastic and Toronto After Dark. The film began its theatrical release in the U.S. on January 27, 2012 in seven markets including NY & LA, expanding to additional cities across the country.

Director: Ernst Hofbauer
Stars: Wolf Ackva, Puppa Armbruster, Sandra Atia, Astrid Boner Genre: Erotica

Those promiscuous schoolgirls are back and more naked than ever, in this eighth installment of the super sexy German softcore series! A two week bus trip to a country hostel turns into a series of crazy sexcapades for some young female students. In a series of eye-and-pants-popping vignettes (a trademark of the Schoolgirl Report series), the girls take us on the ride of our lives and we learn Gisela seduced a worker at her home (watch for a strange "cameo" from Swedish sensation Christina Lindberg here) to open his eyes to the pleasures of lovemaking. Annette is hiding her pregnancy from her parents, because she fears their reaction. A few of the girls turn their prudish Biology teacher from a lame dame, to a boobtastic sexpot. Two skinny dipping teens compare breast sizes as a perverted man swipes their clothes. A beautiful girl dodges huge sticks and balls (on a pool table) as she makes love to her father's boss to keep him from getting fired and, in the final story, blonde bombshell Evi inadvertently reveals one teacher's secret after trying to molest him and confess her love.

JAPANESE EROTIC DELIGHTS — WITH AN EDGE!
A Wham! Bam! Thank you, ma'am! double-whammy sexy slammer double feature from the masterminds of Nikkatsu!

Due to their juvenile crimes, a group of fresh young girls is thrown into a horrid, squalid jail. They soon wish they were back on the outside, as a gang of inmates subjects this “fresh meat”
to the horrors of being locked up. Mayumi, a new inmate with a mysterious past, stands up for herself and fights back! NO ONE is going to push her around, and she hatches an escape plan to seek revenge on the person who had her incarcerated.

TRUE STORY OF A WOMAN IN JAIL: SEX HELL
is a sleazy, sexually graphic and surprisingly violent entry in the “women in prison” genre. The opening uniform changing, nude medical examination sessions, communal scrubbings in the bathhouse, nimble-fingered lesbians and vicious catfights are all here… and more!


Open in new windowIn DEBAUCHERY, the sexy Ryôko Watanabe stars as Ami, a jaded housewife who pitches herself, body and soul, into the Tokyo decadence of the decade in an attempt to pep up her marriage. She secretly joins the elite “Madame Machiko Society Club” to experiment with discrete sex games and the thrill of making love to anonymous men. The sexual perversion and sick depravity she is subjected to, by her clients, is much more than she bargained for. Bondage, beads and whips are only the beginning! Can she escape this secret life she has chosen, or will it destroy her forever? Impulse Films proudly presents two historic stunners from the heyday of the violent sex film. Nikkatsu always delivers. DEBAUCHERY features an original theatrical trailer and both discs include liner notes from Japanese film scholar
Jasper Sharp.

It’s 10 pm and the employees of Michigan’s Walnut Lake Supermarket are in for a really bad night. The place is shutting its doors for good, and the night crew has a long shift ahead of them...longer than they think! The lovely check-out girl has a deranged ex-boyfriend, the store’s phone lines are cut and the employees start dying in the most stomach-churning ways imaginable (courtesy of Academy Award-winning KNB EFX Group).

Film Fanaddict News : CHILLERAMA available on Blu-ray DVD NOW!!!
Posted by Miranda on 2011/12/23 11:07:01 (286 reads)

Open in new windowChillerama is a Late Night Classic for the new millennium." — Jason Bene, Killerfilm.com

"The most offensively nostalgic fun time I’ve personally experienced in theaters in I don’t know how long." — Aaronflux, Dread Central

"Ghoulishly good and delicious." — Why So Blu?

"Highly recommended fun." — Fangoria

"Worth checking out for a laugh and some seriously gross-out moments." — Shock Till You Drop

After a triumphant premiere at the famed Hollywood Forever Cemetery and after grossing out, er, entertaining audiences all over the country with a 20-city Roadshow Tour, the long-awaited new cult classic finally comes home!

From the depraved minds of directors Adam Rifkin (Detroit Rock City, The Dark Backward), Tim Sullivan (2001 Maniacs,VH-1’s “Scream Queens”), Adam Green (Hatchet, Frozen), and Joe Lynch (Wrong Turn 2, Knights of Badassdom), CHILLERAMA is a festival of gore, guts, goofiness and good times. In addition to experiencing all the chills, thrills – and goo – of the ultimate midnight movie in high-definition 1080p picture and DTS-HD audio, CHILLERAMA boasts two hours of insightful and heretofore unseen bonus features that delve deep into the creative process of these four renowned directors of the macabre, as they labored and toiled to create a cinematic love letter to horror and film fans.

Produced by ArieScope Pictures and in the spirit of classic “omnibus” films like Dead of Night, Tales From the Crypt, Creepshow and Twilight Zone: The Movie, with four vignettes that not only celebrate the golden age of B horror schlock but also nearly the entire history of horror cinema itself, CHILLERAMA offers something for every bad taste. With titles like “Wadzilla,” “I Was A Teenage Werebear,” The Diary of Anne Frankenstein,” and “Zom-B-Movie,” CHILLERAMA features appearances by Joel David Moore (Avatar, Hatchet), Lin Shaye (Insidious), Ray Wise (X-Men: First Class), Kane Hodder (Hatchet and Hatchet II), Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight, Sharktopus) and more cameos than one can (body)count.

It's the closing night at the last drive-in theater in America and Cecil B. Kaufman (Richard Riehle, Bridesmaids, Hatchet) has planned the ultimate marathon of lost film prints to unleash upon his faithful cinephile patrons. Four films so rare that they have never been exhibited publicly on American soil until this very night! What could possibly go wrong?

Bonus features on CHILLERAMA Blu-ray and DVD include:

Directors' Video Commentary
Wadzilla Deleted Scenes and Trailer
The Making of The Diary of Anne Frankenstein
I Was A Teenage Werebear Behind the Scenes, Deleted Scenes, and Trailer
Zom-B-Movie Deleted Scenes
Directors' Interviews

Film Fanaddict News : Rudy Ray Moore is DOLEMITE "Weird Wobbler" bobblehead coming soon!
Posted by Film Fanaddict on 2011/12/5 20:48:30 (321 reads)

Open in new windowCult Collectibles in association with Donald H. Randell / Dolemite Records are proud to announce the release of the Official “Rudy Ray Moore is DOLEMITE” “Weird Wobbler” bobblehead figure.

Known as “The King of The Party Records” and “The Godfather of Rap”, Rudy Ray Moore is an immeasurably influential legend for his groundbreaking comedy albums and films. In the course of a lifelong career in entertainment, Moore released nearly three dozen comedy and vocal albums along with a handful of legendary films (DOLEMITE, HUMAN TORNADO, PETEY WHEATSTRAW: THE DEVIL’S SON IN LAW, DISCO GODFATHER, etc.) which have sold into the millions. Moore’s most famous character, “Dolemite”, is so well known it has been referenced in hundreds of hip-hop/rap songs and spoofed on such major television shows as MadTV, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Saturday Night Live. Rapper Snoop Dogg even stated, “Without Rudy Ray Moore, there would be no Snoop Dogg, and that’s for real!”

Cult Collectibles’ owner, Mark Jason Murray, worked with Rudy Ray Moore in various capacities for over 15 years and continues to work hard in efforts to keep his legacy alive after his passing in 2008. Outside of operating Moore’s only official website since 1997 (www.rudyraymoore.com), Murray was granted authorization by Moore to write his official biography, a project over a decade in the making. “Rudy was not only my ‘idol’, he was my friend and I have always felt he never achieved the success and recognition that he not only wanted so badly for himself, but genuinely deserved,” states Murray. “I continue to dig deeply into Moore’s life and career and look forward to being able to present this book when completed. Doing a bobblehead figure of Rudy was the main motivator for me to start this company and I am happy that it has become a reality. It’s just another way for me to honor him and his work and also give his fans something special that they can enjoy as well.”

Moore’s manager, Donald H. Randell of Dolemite Records, continues to work in all areas relating to Moore’s legacy. “A Rudy Ray Moore bobblehead is something long overdue! Moore continues to be a source of inspiration for so many comedians, musicians, filmmakers and fans and this is something to help keep that inspirational spirit alive!”

Cult Collectibles has quickly become known for its high quality bobblehead figures which frequently push the limits of the format. “I want every figure I create to really stand out,” states Murray, “and I also wanted this figure to be special and something his fans would really love.” Moore is dressed in a highly stylized “pimp” outfit and ready to launch himself off a rock encrusted base which features his name and “Dolemite” logo bursting from below his feet. “It wasn’t enough for me to just have his head be able to move so his right arm is connected by a spring, enabling it to throw a punch. I obsess over details and even made sure his pants were creased properly.” As if that wasn’t enough to please fans, the figure also includes a free double sided Rudy Ray Moore drink coaster stating “Put Your Drink On It!” (a takeoff of his famous phrase “Put Your Weight On It!”)

Pre-orders are available now at www.cultcollectibles.com with figures shipping at the beginning of March 2012, just in time to celebrate the first annual “DOLEMITE DAY” (March 17, Moore’s birthday)

Film Fanaddict News : SNACK BAR BUDAPEST available NOW on DVD!
Posted by Miranda on 2011/9/15 18:56:51 (472 reads)

Open in new windowLegendary erotica master Tinto Brass (Caligula) directs this steamy, sexy Italian classic, starring Giancarlo Giannini (Quantum Of Solace) Available for the first time in the U.S.

A disbarred lawyer (Giancarlo Giannini), on the road to get his girlfriend an abortion, finds himself trapped in a no-man's land where a ruthless thug (François Negret) plans to take over a small seaside village to build an everyman's Las Vegas. The smalltime hoodlum lures the lawyer in his dreams of merciless grandeur while the man begins to think that maybe there could be a second chance even for him. But sadly fates is awaiting just around the corner.

Tinto Brass masterfully directs a luscious erotic and postmodern film noir. Graced by the pop art cinematography of Alessio Gelsini, Snack Bar Budapest can be considered a lost masterpiece by Tinto Brass, the mischievous genius of Italian erotica. With a dream cast of stunning ladies such as Valentine Demy (who later became one of the most notorious Italian X-Rated stars), Loredana Romito, cult actress Malisa Longo and Joe D'Amato's scream queen Carmen Di Pietro, Snack Bar Budapest goes back to the glory days of the Italian new wave from the sixties while upping the ante on all things sex.

Film Fanaddict News : BASKET CASE available on Blu-ray September 27th!
Posted by Miranda on 2011/9/15 18:53:38 (402 reads)

Open in new windowIn 1982, a low budget horror film raised its twisted head and created a buzz with a strange mix of comedy, gore, sleaze and heartfelt pathos. On September 27th, Image Entertainment and Something Weird proudly join forces to unleash Basket Case in a brand new HD transfer supervised by writer/director Frank Henenlotter. The Blu-ray has a basket full of bonus features including an all-new video introduction by the director, commentary tracks and outtakes.

Carrying a mysterious wicker basket wherever he goes, Duane Bradley checks into a flea-bag hotel in New York ’s Times Square . What’s in the basket, you ask? Why, it’s Duane’s hideously misshapen Siamese twin brother, Belial, who seems to wield some sort of odd control over his more normal looking brother. Together, they’re in town to hunt down and wreak havoc on the sick surgeons who separated them, but this isn’t your normal revenge flick.

With memorably gruesome scenes and some seriously disturbing stop-motion animation, Basket Case is one of the most beloved, cheerfully demented cult classics of all time. Many discovered it in the days of VHS, but now Basket Case is reborn and remastered on Blu-ray™ for a new generation of twisted fans to enjoy. Open the basket if you dare!

New Full-Frame HD Transfer Preserving the Original 16mm Camera Ratio

Film Fanaddict News : COMING SOON: THROWING STONES SEASON TWO Web Series!
Posted by Miranda on 2011/9/15 18:51:17 (499 reads)

Open in new windowIn July, Highland Myst and Throwing Stones Productions wrapped on Season Two of the award winning teen horror web series THROWING STONES which stars Chad Cox (Powder, The Good Guys), Cherami Leigh (Fast Food Nation, HBO's Temple Grandin), Rebekah Kennedy (Creature, Season of the Witch), Lindsay Seidel (The Final), Bryan Massey (Mad Money, Boggy Creek), Kayla Carlyle (From the Dark), Lynn Andrews (MTV's: High School Stories, The Ghost of Godnight Lane), and other up-and-comers. The teen series about students sent to Saturday School to learn a lesson has become one of the most watched series on KoldCast TV ever since the cliff hanger episode aired earlier this year and MTV producers recently fell in love with series and began posting episodes on their Facebook pages. Whereas the first season was about getting to know the students at Blair High while focusing more on the psychological elements, the second season moves into full Slasher-Mode. After finally coming together to overcome their differences, the students of Blair High are violently separated and forced to follow Mr. Beckett's new set of rules. One by one he challenges each student's will to live as he pushes his Broken Window Theory to the test. Their objective is to survive.

The web series is loosely based on a feature length screenplay of the same name by writers Bart D. Van Bemmel and Jason A. Wheeler. Joining the team, Jon Keeyes signed on to direct Season Two. THROWING STONES is currently in post-production with a autumn release planned. Premiere date to be announced soon.
