Blood-A-Rama Triple Frightmare Available December 28

A horror triple feature from the vaults of the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA)!

Help Me . . . I’m Possessed: A free-form nightmare that takes place at a sanitarium in the desert, this surrealist gem includes a psychopathic hunchback, delirious monsters, and a killer early synthesizer score.

Night Of The Strangler: A southern-fried whodunnit with murder, racial tension, and a starring role from The Monkees’ Micky Dolenz, this sweat-soaked sleazer feels like a cross between an American giallo and a trashy airport paperback novel.

Carnival Of Blood: An ominous, semi-cinéma vérité horror movie that was shot at Coney Island in NYC, Carnival Of Blood features an early role from Burt Young (Rocky), pop-art gore that would make H.G. Lewis proud, and a gloriously seedy atmosphere.

NOTICE! These preservations were made from the only known film elements in existence. Please approach the technical quality of the source materials with empathy.

STARRING: Micky Dolenz, Burt Young

Zombie Cop (1991) Available December 21

One Hollywood stunt rarely attempted in shot-on-video movies is the car chase, yet “Zombie Cop” spends a big chunk of its short running time attempting just such a feat, with mixed results. Voodoo rituals, fight scenes, questionable police procedure, and ample gunplay with actors using real weapons firing blanks also contribute to making this one of the most gonzo horror/action hybrids ever made. After a cop named Gill and Haitian voodoo master Doctor Death kill each other during a routine drug bust, the duo rise from the grave to continue their game of cat-and-mouse as members of the undead. Gill enlists the help of human partner Stevens in tracking down Death and putting a stop to his nefarious plans for world domination! Painstakingly restored from original Super-VHS-C camera masters with a dynamic new 5.1 surround remix, “Zombie Cop” is more arresting than ever on Blu-ray together with never-before-seen bonus materials from the Tempe vaults, three audio commentaries, and original 1991 home video presentation captured from the archival edit master.

STARRING: Michael Kemper, Ken Jarosz, James R. Black Jr., Bill Morrison, James L. Edwards

Before Black Sabbath, before I Vampiri, director Giorgio Ferroni (The Lion of Thebes, Blood for a Silver Dollar) introduced audiences to period horror Italian-style with his chilling 1960 shocker Mill of the Stone Women – a classic tale of terror redolent with the atmosphere of vintage Hammer Horror.

Young art student Hans von Arnam (Pierre Brice, Night of the Damned) arrives by barge at an old mill to write a monograph about its celebrated sculptures of women in the throes of death and torture, maintained and curated by the mill’s owner, the hermetic Professor Wahl (Herbert Böhme, Secret of the Red Orchid). But when Hans encounters the professor’s beautiful and mysterious daughter Elfi (Scilla Gabel, Modesty Blaise), his own fate becomes inexorably bound up with hers, and with the shocking secret that lies at the heart of the so-called Mill of the Stone Women.

The first Italian horror film to be shot in color, Mill of the Stone Women prefigured a raft of other spaghetti nightmares, including the work of maestros Mario Bava and Dario Argento. Arrow Video is proud to present this brand-new restoration of one of the foundational titles of Italian horror.

STARRING: Pierre Brice, Scilla Gabel, Wolfgang Preiss
