#horror – #horrormovies – #AliceSweetAlice – #ArrowVideo – @ArrowFilmsVideo –
A young Brooke Shields meets an untimely end in this religious-themed proto slasher par excellence from director Alfred Sole. On the day of her first communion, young Karen (Brooke Shields) is savagely murdered by an unknown assailant in a yellow rain mac and creepy translucent mask. But the nightmare is far from over – as the knife-wielding maniac strikes again and again, Karen’s bereaved parents are forced to confront the possibility that Karen’s wayward sister Alice might be the one behind the mask. Bearing influences from the likes of Hitchcock, the then-booming Italian giallo film and more specifically, Nicolas Roeg’s Don’t Look Now, Alice, Sweet Alice is an absolutely essential – if often overlooked – entry in the canon of 1970s American horror.

THE NORTH AMERICAN BLU-RAY PREMIERE
From writer/director Lamberto Bava (Demons) comes a modern-day reimagining of his father’s classic Black Sunday featuring FX by Sergio Stivaletti (Cemetery Man), music by Simon Boswell (Santa Sangre) and hailed as an impressive evolution of ’80s Italian horror that not enough fans have seen (At The Mansion Of Madness): When a group of skiers becomes trapped in a crevasse, their discovery of a long-frozen female corpse will unmask an ancient evil, unlock a portal of the damned and unleash a nightmare of Satanic vengeance. Mary Sellers (Stagefright), Debora Caprioglio (Klaus Kinski’s Paganini) and Michele Soavi (director of The Church and The Sect) star in this visual roller coaster (Ninja Dixon) – also known as Demons 5: The Devil’s Veil – now scanned in 2K from the original camera negative for the first time ever in North America.

When deviant director Stanley Durall returns to his erotic thriller, God’s Lonely Woman, to record an audio commentary for a boutique label, he accidentally unleashes vengeful spirits — cursed spectres who are ready to enact brutal and bloody revenge for his past transgressions…
The A Little More Flesh films combine bold performances with transgressive scripts to create unique cinematic experiences critics have called “Funny, shocking, sad, beautiful and very, very clever” (Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Alliance of Women Film Journalists) and “The best film of the year. A completely new form of horror” (The Devil Times Five podcast). Bringing together an unforgettable cast of characters played by Elf Lyons, Harley Dee, Hazel Townsend, and many more, featuring cameos by Lloyd Kaufman (Troma), Laurence R Harvey (Human Centipede II), and Lauren Ashley Carter (The Woman), all shot on iPhones, brace yourself for an experience comparable to “recent masterclasses including Peter Strickland’s In Fabric and Jordan Peele’s Get Out” (Heller-Nicholas).

Broadcasting through a makeshift network of discarded televisions, KUSO is a shifting series of vignettes tangled in the aftermath of Los Angeles’s worst earthquake nightmare. Travel between screens and aftershocks into the twisted lives of the survived. Blending nightmarish visions, animation and a shocking image of a distorted America, this is the daring debut and Sundance sensation from director Steve, aka renowned musician Flying Lotus.

Nazi-occupied Romania, 1941: In a small and gloomy village hidden deep in the mountains, German troops have arrived to lay siege. Although warned by the townspeople to stay out of a mysterious and ornately carved structure known only as “The Keep,” two arrogant soldiers ignore their orders and break into the obelisk, hoping to find stowed treasure, but instead unleash an ancient evil force which, with each new victim, grows stronger and more powerful. After suffering large casualties at its hands, Captain Klaus Woermann is informed that the only person who might be capable of defeating this monstrous and demonic entity is an elderly Jewish historian named Dr. Theodore Cuza, who is being held captive with his daughter in a concentration camp…
The legendary horror spectacle from director Michael Mann (Heat, Miami Vice), adapted from genre writer F. Paul Wilson’s New York Times best-selling novel, THE KEEP is a mesmerizing visual feast of supernatural terror enhanced by a remarkable original score by Tangerine Dream (Sorcerer) along with jaw-dropping special effects by Nick Maley (Superman, Lifeforce).

After being convinced by a group of gold prospectors to join their expedition, Alferd loses his beloved horse, Liane, which unwittingly sets the men on an unplanned adventure, including encounters with a group of very unusual Indians, facing off with ultra-manly fur trappers, and, of course, fudge packing, all before becoming stranded in the freezing winter with no provisions.

Initially concerned about how working on such a project might affect his already fragile mental health, the allure of a regular salary is too hard to resist, and Derek agrees.
