It all began in 2001 with “Filthy McNasty,” the outlandish tale of two nerdy chicks whose greatest wish comes true when a horny demon named Phil turns them into sexy sirens. After sneaking onto Tempe/Full Moon’s “Dead & Rotting” Limited Edition DVD as a bonus feature, the splatter comedy became a cult sensation two years later paired with “Mulva: Zombie Ass Kicker!” — the first twisted visions from writer/ director Chris Seaver to achieve worldwide distribution. This modest success paved the way for a trio of sequels, first with Phil the Demon returning for “Filthy McNastier” before introducing D’artagnan, the more deadly female of the species, for series highlights “Filthy McNastiest” and “Filthy McNasty 4: Carnal Holocaust.” Heavily censored on digital streaming platforms, this long-awaited “quadrilogy” arrives fully uncut with newly-restored editions of the first three movies taken from archival Mini-DV masters and the final sequel presented in native 1080p HD for the first time on disc. All four gross-out horror comedies spurt onto Blu-ray with an hour-long retrospective look back at the series, archival bonus materials from the Tempe vaults, and vintage audio commentaries & trailers.

In 1970, young first-time director Dario Argento (Deep Red, Suspiria) made his indelible mark on Italian cinema with The Bird with the Crystal Plumage – a film which redefined the ‘giallo’ genre of murder-mystery thrillers and catapulted him to international stardom. Sam Dalmas (Tony Musante, We Own the Night), an American writer living in Rome, inadvertently witnesses a brutal attack on a woman (Eva Renzi, Funeral in Berlin) in a modern art gallery. Powerless to help, he grows increasingly obsessed with the incident. Convinced that something he saw that night holds the key to identifying the maniac terrorizing Rome, he launches his own investigation parallel to that of the police, heedless of the danger to both himself and his girlfriend Giulia (Suzy Kendall, Spasmo)… A staggeringly assured debut, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage establishes the key traits that would define Argento’s filmography, including lavish visuals and a flare for wildly inventive, brutal scenes of violence. With sumptuous cinematography by Vittorio Storaro (Apocalypse Now) and a seductive score by legendary composer Ennio Morricone (Once Upon a Time in the West), this landmark film has never looked or sounded better in this brand new 4K Ultra HD presentation from Arrow Video!

Daimajin Trilogy Trailer ARROW
The Daimajin films saw Daiei’s Kyoto studios bringing its own iconic movie monster to life in a unique but short-lived series that transplants the Golem legend to Japan’s Warring States period of the late-16th century. There are three films in the series.
In Daimajin, directed by Kimiyoshi Yasuda (Yokai Monsters, Zatoichi on the Road), the young son and daughter of the benevolent feudal lord Hanabusa flee to the mountains when their parents are slain by the treacherous usurper Odate. Ten years later, when the elderly priestess who has harboured them is also murdered, the rage of the slumbering ancient god that lies beneath the crumbling giant stone idol hidden deep in the forests in the mountains is invoked.
In Return of Daimajin, Kenji Misumi (Tale of Zatoichi, Lone Wolf and Cub) brings his usual stylistic flourish, as the wrathful deity is roused from his new home on an island in the middle of a lake by the violent incursions of a vicious warlord.
In the final film, Wrath of Daimajin, by veteran jidaigeki director Kazuo Mori, four young boys make a perilous trip to elicit the help of the ancient mountain god in freeing their family members who have been enslaved by a tyrannical lord.
