From the mind of one of Italian genre cinema’s most outrageous and uncompromising filmmakers comes Black Magic Rites (Riti, magie nere e segrete orge nel Trecento… aka The Reincarnation of Isabel), Renato Polselli’s (The Vampire and the Ballerina) delirious masterpiece of salacious horror.
When beautiful Laureen throws a wild party at the castle which she has just inherited, she is blissfully unaware that its dark cellar harbours an occult sect that is hellbent on avenging the death of Isabel, who was burned at the stake 600 years earlier as a witch. The occultists’ satanic rituals call for the blood of virgins… Could Laureen be next?
Starring Mickey Hargitay (Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?) and Rita Calderoni (A Quiet Place in the Country), this bizarre, psychedelic fusion of titillation and Italian Gothic horror is presented in an all-new 4K restoration from the original negative.

The terrifying talents of Newcastle’s Norman Carter ‘Tod’ Slaughter – the first true icon of British horror cinema – are showcased in this long-overdue box set. Featuring the eight films which ‘Europe’s Horror Man’ made in collaboration with British producer-director George King (Tomorrow We Live), this comprehensive collection also includes a number of rare shorts and newsreel items.
Unlike his contemporaries, such as Boris Karloff and Charles Laughton, Tod Slaughter never left his native shores. Instead, he chose to make his mark in Britain by transferring his most sensational theatrical performances to the screen. Portraying every kind of cruel and cunning criminal – from petty thief to murderer – he became the first great villain of British horror, at a time before the Grand Guignolof Hammer Films began to take hold, without once donning monster make-up.
Criminally overlooked by film historians, and only previously seen in compromised versions, these fascinating films have been newly restored using original film materials preserved at the British Film Institute (BFI) National Archive, and are accompanied by an array of essential contextualizing extras, including archival short films and radio plays presented with optional soundtracks by British music legends Current 93, newly recorded commentaries, critical appreciations and personal recollections, and a 120-page book. Strictly limited to 6,000 individually numbered units for the UK and US.
STARRING: Tod Slaughter, Eric Portman, David Farrar

Haunted by erotic visions, a young woman (Lina Romay) comes to discover that her sexual possession is the result of a bargain struck nineteen years earlier between her playboy father (Patrick Mariel) and an ethereal, pansexual seductress (Pamela Stafford). In a parallel narrative, a visionary doctor (Jess Franco) tries to unravel the particular form of psychopathia sexualis that torments a beautiful patient (Catherine Lafferière). In the 1970s, Franco’s films reached a level of voyeuristic extremes, especially when collaborating with Romay, his soulmate and creative muse. Along with Shining Sex and Female Vampire, Lorna the Exorcist (Les possédées du diable) demonstrates the outer limits of the erotic horror film: hallucinatory films with languorous love scenes, drenched with lyrical music, and punctuated with moments of stark horror.

Weekend party plans are derailed when an ancient Toltec curse unleashes an army of zombies upon a houseful of college coeds. But the odds are evened when whip-cracking lawman Ranger Girard (Western legend Lash La Rue) arrives to stage a showdown with the evil dead. The first of two films by North Carolina horror auteur Phil Smoot (Alien Outlaw), The Dark Power manages to be both nostalgic and irreverent as it revisits the creature feature phenomenon. This director-approved 4K restoration of The Dark Power showcases the early work of special effects masters Tony Elwood (Cold Storage) and Emmy Award-Winner Dean Jones (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) as well as, ahem, eye-popping cinematography by Paul Hughen (The Mandalorian).

Aliens have landed! And these aliens hunt…for sport! When a UFO crash lands in the Appalachian back country, it releases a squad of interstellar predators, playing The Most Dangerous Game with any Earthlings who cross their path. But these alien outlaws encounter unexpected resistance in the form of a gun-toting blonde (Kari Anderson) and her mentor (Western legend Lash La Rue). Phil Smoot’s second creature feature (following The Dark Power) is both a clever send-up of the 1950s rubber-suit monster genre, and a loving homage to the 1940s B Western (with a special appearance by Sunset Carson). Photographed by Paul Hughen (The Book of Boba Fett), Alien Outlaw is presented here in a director-approved 4K restoration from the original camera negatives.

The Bat is a 1959 American mystery film starring Vincent Price and Agnes Moorehead. Cornelia Van Gorder (Agnes Moorehead) is a mystery writer who rents a summer home in a small town from a local bank president John Fleming (Harvey Stephens). Over $1 million in securities is discovered missing from the bank while Fleming is on a hunting trip with his physician, Dr. Malcolm Wells (Vincent Price). Fleming confesses to Wells that he stole the securities and offers to split the money with Wells in return for help in faking his own death and threatens to kill him if he doesn’t agree to help. A forest fire breaks out nearby and Wells shoots Fleming and uses the fire to cover up the murder. Meanwhile, the town is being terrorized by a mysterious murderer known as ‘The Bat’. The Bat is said to be a man with no face who murders women at night by ripping out their throats with steel claws. The Bat breaks into the house and releases a real bat which bites Van Gorder’s maid. Van Gorder calls Dr. Wells to treat the bite. Wells (Vincent Price) is in his laboratory doing experiments on bats and leaves to go to Van Gorder’s assistance. Wells catches the bat that bit Van Gorder’s maid and checks her wounds. Van Gorder is then visited by detectives who are investigating the stolen securities from the bank and discover blueprints which may indicate in the house walls where the stolen money has been hidden. The women are told to go to bed, but soon after The Bat re-enters the house and cuts the phone lines and goes to the third floor where he begins chiselling a hole in one of the walls. The plot thickens when Van Gorder investigates the room where the noise was coming from and realizes there is a secret room behind the wall where The Bat was chiselling. She accidentally traps herself in the room and things go from bad to worse as the identity of The Bat becomes apparent. This is a classic horror movie with a memorable cast and an unforgettable plot.
