Torso (1973) Available January 20

#horror – #horrormovies – #Torso – #ArrowVideo – @ArrowFilmsVideo –

A talented and versatile journeyman, director Sergio Martino (The Case of the Scorpion’s Tail, Your Vice is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key) lent his talents to multiple genres across his long and varied career, but is undoubtedly best known for his giallo thrillers from the early 70s. Among the most highly acclaimed of these, 1973’s Torso revels in the genre’s time-honored traditions while simultaneously laying the groundwork for the modern slasher movie.

A sex maniac is prowling the streets of Perugia, targeting the picturesque university town’s female students. Alarmed at the plummeting life expectancy of the student body, Jane (Suzy Kendall, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage) and her three friends elope to a secluded country villa – only to discover that, far from having left the terror behind, they’ve brought it with them!

Also known as Carnal Violence, Torso was released in Italy towards the end of the giallo boom before enjoying a second life on the American grindhouse circuit. Co-starring Tina Aumont (Salon Kitty) and Luc Merenda (The Violent Professionals), the film finds its director at the top of his game, delivering copious levels of violence, sleaze, and one of the tensest cat-and-mouse games ever committed to celluloid!

STARRING: Angela Covello, Carla Brait, Carlo Alighiero, Conchita Airoldi

The Flesh and Blood Show (1972) Available January 20

#horror – #horrormovies – #TheFleshandBloodShow – #KinoCult – @kino_cult –

With The Flesh and Blood Show, Pete Walker (House of Whipcord) transitioned from crime thrillers and nudie pictures to full-blown horror, where he would evolve into one of the genre’s most playful and perverse directors. Billed as “An Appalling Amalgam of Carnage and Carnality,” The Flesh and Blood Show is an homage to the blood-splattered, sex-smeared theatre known as the Grand Guignol. Shuttered and cursed by an especially tragic production of Othello, a seaside theatre reopens its doors as a groovy musical revue, only to have several performers fall victim to the deadly curse. For this Kino Cult release, the 3-D sequences have been newly aligned by the 3-D Film Archive LLC, and are presented in both stereoscopic and anaglyph formats.

STARRING: Jenny Hanley, Luan Peters, Patrick Barr, Ray Brooks, Robin Askwith

A group of strangers, mysteriously gathered at an isolated country estate, recount chilling tales of the supernatural. First, a racer survives a brush with death only to receive terrifying premonitions from beyond the grave. Then a teen’s innocent game of hide-and-seek leads to an encounter with the macabre. Next, a young couple purchases an antique mirror that unleashes a horrific power from its past. In a lighter vein, two competitive golfers play for stakes that may haunt the winner forever. Finally, a renowned ventriloquist descends into an abyss of madness and murder when his dummy develops a mind of its own. But even after these frightening tales are told, does one final nightmare await them all? Britain’s venerable Ealing Studios brought together four brilliant directors, Charles Crichton (The Lavender Hill Mob), Basil Dearden (The Mind Benders), Alberto Cavalcanti (They Made Me a Fugitve) and Robert Hamer (It Always Rains on Sunday) to create this classic chiller that remains one of the most influential horror films ever made. This is the uncut and complete UK version of Dead of Night, now newly restored in 4K from original archival materials for the first time in decades.

Violent New Breed (Visual Vengeance Collector’s Edition) (1997) Available January 20

#horror – #horrormovies – #ViolentNewBreed – #VisualVengeance – @VisualVenVideo –

The Anti-Christ has been born under the streets of New York City! Available for the first time on Blu-ray with over 12 hours of bonus content.

A vicious new street drug called Rapture is flooding New York City, and two burned-out cops are sent to trace its source. What they don’t know is that the poison was cooked up by an army of demons festering beneath Manhattan–creatures who have also birthed the Antichrist! Now it’s a race through sleaze-soaked streets with Satan’s spawn in tow, hoping to deliver the hell-baby to the last Pastor in the city (blaxploitation legend Rudy Ray Moore) for a baptism before it unleashes hell on earth.

The most ambitious, unpredictable effort from SOV auteur Todd Sheets, Violent New Breed swings for the fences, weaving clashing storylines, a sprawling cast, and Sheets’ trademark splatter and monster effects. Featuring drug deals, crooked cops, strip clubs, rituals, possessed kids and slimy births, the film channels the late-80s “satanic panic” and mixes it with Sheets’ raw camcorder fury and homemade charm, creating a cracked vision of a post-apocalyptic world that plays like a summer blockbuster from another dimension.

#horror – #horrormovies – #OzoneAttackOfTheRedneckMutants – #VisualVengeance – @VisualVenVideo –

A hole in the Ozone layer turns a town of rednecks into flesh-eating mutants. First time ever on Blu-ray.

When a toxic chemical spill tears open the ozone above rural Texas, backwoods locals mutate into drooling, slime-choked ghouls with an insatiable appetite for flesh. Environmental science student Arlene and hitchhiker Kevin stumble into the madness as small-town life collapses into a grotesque carnival of green vomit, yellow pus, and blood-soaked carnage. Dubbed dialogue, surreal padding, Americana weirdness, and gallons of inventive practical gore make Ozone unforgettable and stomach-churning.

Director Matt Devlen’s infamous Super-8 splatter oddity–sister film to Bret McCormick’s The Abomination–remains a true DIY regional relic, long overshadowed by its limited VHS release in the late ’80s. Now, for the first time on Blu-ray, this Special Edition features deleted scenes, outtakes, lost short films, rare images, and fresh extras with the original creators.
