With his third disturbing feature, Joko Anwar – Indonesian writer/director of Impetigore and the remake of Satan’s Slave – became one of the most daring new genre filmmakers in the world. Now discover why: As a successful young sculptor increasingly loses his grip on sanity, he imagines his wife, friends and family are all conspiring against him, begins filling his best-selling works with unspeakable human matter, becomes obsessed with brutal hidden-camera abuse videos, and inches inescapably closer towards the most horrific final act of all. Fachry Albar (V/H/S/2), Marsha Timothy (The Raid 2) and Ario Bayu (The Queen Of Black Magic) star in this “almost perfect film – eerie, terrifying and just begging to be seen” (The Focus Pull), now on disc with exclusive Special Features for the first time ever in America.

Dementia (1955) Available April 26

An entirely unique and utterly bizarre film, John J. Parker’s Dementia is a 1950s-style foray into the mind of psycho-sexual madness. Set entirely in a nocturnal twilight zone that blends dream imagery with the cinematic stylings of film noir, Dementia follows the tormented existence of a young woman haunted by the horrors of her youth, which transformed her into a stiletto-wielding, man-hating beatnik. Accompanied by George Antheil’s sci-fi score, the camera follows a “Gamin” (Adrienne Barrett) on a surreal sleepwalk through B-movie hell, populated by prostitutes, pimps, and would-be molesters – all photographed by William Thompson (Plan 9 From Outer Space). Two years after its original release, a narration track of foreboding psychobabble (diabolically spoken by Ed McMahon) was added and the title was changed to the more sensational Daughter Of Horror. This edition presents the original cut of Dementia, digitally remastered from the 35MM negative, as well as the complete Daughter Of Horror (from a 35MM print), and the original theatrical trailer.

STARRING: Adrienne Barrett, Bruno Vesota, Ben Roseman, Angelo Rossitto

Backwoods Marcy (1999) Available April 26

A wrong turn during a business trip leads an unsuspecting yuppie down a perilous road of terror after he foolishly runs afoul of Marcy; a psychotic, redneck, homeless woman who dwells deep in the ominous swamplands of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. After capturing him and caging him like an animal, the depraved Marcy methodically tortures and rapes her helpless male captive. Upon his escape, a savage fight to the death ensues where only the most cunning of the two will survive!

One of the few shot on video movies in history to be helmed by a woman, Backwoods Marcy was written, produced, scored, and directed by actress turned filmmaker Dawn Murphy, who also turns in a tour de force acting performance in a dual role that earned her a Best Actress nomination at the 1999 B-Movie Awards. Co-starring Dave Castiglione (Love is a Stranger), Pamela Sutch (Psycho Sisters), and W.A.V.E. founder Gary Whitson (Dead North), Saturn’s Core is proud to present this long sought after, strangely feminist, ’90s era SOV horror epic, newly uncovered and restored from the vaults of the infamous South Jersey based studio Sharkey Video. As an added bonus, Backwoods Marcy now comes paired with another Sharkey Video curio; writer / director Dave Castiglione’s 1995 brain-melting, holiday themed, SOV comedy An Ex-Hooker’s Christmas Carol, which arrives newly restored and accompanied by a wealth of extras of its own!

STARRING: Dawn Murphy, Dave Castiglione, Pamela Sutch, Gary Whitson
