2-DISC SPECIAL EDITION INCLUDES 3 REMASTERED VERSIONS + NEW SPECIAL FEATURES!

More than 40 years ago, it ignited a firestorm of outrage in America and DPP 39 condemnation in the UK. Now one of the grisliest gems of the ’80s can be seen uncut and fully remastered like never before: A shy incinerator worker (an unnerving performance by Dan Grimaldi of The Sopranos) scarred by memories of his mother’s abuse begins luring women to his childhood home for incendiary torment, including ”one of the most shocking, notorious scenes in sleaze-horror history” (Mondo Digital). Director/co-writer Joseph Ellison delivers ”an underrated classic on the same level as Maniac” (Ninja Dixon), now featuring a new 2K scan from the original negative – plus the alternate TV Version and The Extended Cut combining scenes from both – with 2+ hours of exclusive Special Features.

STARRING: Dan Grimaldi, Charles Bonet, Bill Ricci

THEY SHALL HAVE MURDER WHEREVER THEY GO…

For his feature film debut, director Peter Maris (Ministry Of Vengeance, Diplomatic Immunity) took portions of an unfinished urban conspiracy thriller and added a new psycho-killer procedural to create what may be the most unusual/vicious proto-slasher shocker of the ‘70s: When a series of savage murders rocks St. Louis, the police investigation will lead to a deranged Vietnam vet ”who looks like a cracked-out Seth McFarlane” (HorrorNews.net), an underground organization of white-collar vigilantes, gratuitous nudity, graphic violence and an absolute masterclass in low-budget regional filmmaking. One of the very first Section 2 Video Nasties, this longtime VHS rarity – also known as Psycho Puppet – is now presented on disc for the first time ever, restored from the only known 35mm print in existence.

STARRING: Turk Cekovsky, Debi Chaney, Terry TenBroek

Deadly Games (1989) Available February 22

February 21, 2022 4 Evil Eyes

Steve Railsback (famed for his unhinged performance as Charles Manson in 1976’s TV mini-series “Helter Skelter”) is at his sinister best as a troubled Vietnam Vet in 1982’s Deadly Games – a tale of madness, murder and adultery from writer/director Scott Mansfied.

A masked maniac with a penchant for a horror-themed board game is playing his own twisted game with the women of a small American town. Each time the dice is rolled, another victim meets a grisly end. Returning home to mourn the death of her murdered sister, Keegan (Jo Ann Harris) befriends local cop Roger and oddball cinema projectionist Billy (Railsback) – but soon finds herself in the killer’s sights.

Originally entitled Who Fell Asleep, Deadly Games is an intriguing early ’80s slasher oddity which benefits from focusing as much on the development of its female-led cast as it does on its scenes of stalking and slashing. Available for the first time ever on disc, Arrow Video is proud to present this long-overlooked creepy gem in a brand new restoration from the recently-unearthed camera negative!

STARRING: Sam Groom, June Lockhart, Colleen Camp, Steve Railsback, Jo Ann Harris

Sherman (Poltergeist III), and featuring ultra-grisly gore effects by Oscar winner Stan Winston (Jurassic Park).

Ray and Bob Perkins are brothers whose grisly killing spree has landed them on death row. Plotting a daring escape, they break free from prison with vengeance in mind, setting targets in the form of the key witnesses against them, but particularly the judge in their trial and the prosecuting attorney. Leaving a trail of maimed corpses as they enact their revenge, the brothers finally arrive at their prime target: the home of district attorney Walter Davenport and his wife. What they don’t expect, however, is the late return home of the Davenport’s teenage daughter, Stephanie…

Mixing action, home invasion drama, and slasher pretenses, Gary Winick’s (Charlotte’s Web) directorial debut, Curfew, is a tense, edge of your seat thriller with a high body count and a healthy dose of dark humor.

A MOVIE SEEMINGLY MADE BY SATAN HIMSELF!

With classics like Whirlpool, Symptoms and Vampyres, writer/director José Ramón Larraz explored bold new realms of erotic horror. But with his most infamous film of all, the late Spanish auteur defiled nearly every taboo of sexual mayhem: When a young couple visits in-laws in the UK countryside, they will instead discover a haven of the occult where lesbianism, incest, sodomy, bestiality and beyond may all be commanded by Lucifer himself. The legendary Helga Liné (Nightmare Castle, The Loreley’s Grasp), Carmen Carrión (The Inconfessable Orgies Of Emmanuelle) and Mauro Rivera (The Sexual Story Of O) star in this notorious orgy of Satanic depravity – also known as Hot Fantasies, Naked Dreams and Sexual Rites Of The Devil – now scanned uncut in 2K with all-new Special Features.
