The Strangler (1970) Available February 27

4 Evil Eyes

#horror – #horrormovies – #TheStrangler – #AlteredInnocence –

An unconventional French giallo released before the subgenre’s popularity boom resulting from filmmakers like Dario Argento and Lucio Fulci, THE STRANGLER centers on Émile (Jacques Perrin, The Young Girls of Rochefort), a handsome young man targeting women he believes are too depressed to go on living. As multiple women fall to Émile’s suffocating white scarf, inspector Simon Dangret, the detective assigned to track down the killer, resorts to seriously unorthodox and even unethical methods to get his man with the assistance of Anna, a beautiful woman who believes herself to be a potential victim.

Praised as a “complex, melancholic meditation on isolation as well as a portrait of collective hysteria” by the New York Film Festival, the film equally subverts and indulges in the conventions of the giallo with unexpected beauty and refinement. Director Paul Vecchiali has been hailed as an “icon of a rebellious, reflexive, and emotionally excessive cinema” by Le Monde and celebrated for his prolific filmography and decades-spanning career as a critic, director, and producer.

STARRING: Jacques Perrin, Julien Guiomar, Eva Simonet, Paul Barge, Jacqueline Danno

Age of Demons (1993) Available February 27

4 Evil Eyes

#horror – #horrormovies – #AgeofDemons – #SaturnsCore –

A trio of sorceresses are hellbent on offering 100 human sacrifices in order to access Hades and bring forth the age of demons. They kidnap Mitch Feinstein (Eric Matson), a satanic punk rocker with unique psychic powers, and force him to summon a demonic monster who is let loose into the world to wreak mayhem and destruction. Mitch quickly enlists his goofy brother Don (Damon Foster) and his karate club compadres to do battle with the coven’s evil henchmen. In a final ditch effort to save humanity, the brothers combine their powers to resurrect Don’s mammoth robotics class project Cybertron, who flies to the rescue and challenges the demon head-to-head in a blood soaked, laser beam battle to the death!

A brain-scrambling amalgamation of high-risk amateur kung-fu stunts, raucous punk rock, bursts of extreme gore, crude visual effects, and scads of gratuitous nudity, notorious publisher, martial artist, filmmaker (Hot Dogs on the Run), and outspoken satanist Damon Foster turned heads in 1993 with Age of Demons; his homespun, madcap SOV homage to the Asian Tokusatsu and Kyodai Hero films. Like a primitive, analog episode of Ultraman captured through the subversive camcorder lens of Hugh Gallagher, Age of Demons simultaneously revolts and charms with its blend of crude humor, hair brained homemade creature suits, and vibrant visual insanity.

STARRING: Damon Foster, Eric Matson, Butch Portillo, Anthony Houk, Rebecca Torres

NO MORE PENCILS. NO MORE BOOKS. NO MORE TEACHERS’ DIRTY LOOKS.

High school can be murder. Just ask Paula (Jill Schoelen, The Stepfather). Her overprotective father disappears during a weekend hunting trip. She’s being romantically pursued by Brian Woods (Donovan Leitch, The Blob), a creepy classmate who recently graduated from a mental institution. Her jealous jock boyfriend Dwight (Brad Pitt, Moneyball) is looking for any reason to release his juvenile rage. The lecherous school principle Mr. Dante (Roddy McDowall, Fright Night) is after her tight student body, and her friends and teachers are rapidly falling victim to a silent, shadowy mass-murder.

But unless she learns his identity soon, her high school education will quickly come to a nasty end.

#horror – #horrormovies – #DarkWater – #ArrowVideo – @ArrowFilmsVideo –

After terrifying audiences worldwide with the blockbuster J-Horror classic Ring and its sequel, director Hideo Nakata returned to the genre for Dark Water, another highly atmospheric, and critically acclaimed, tale of the supernatural which took the common theme of the “dead wet girl” to new heights of suspense and drama.

Based upon on a short story by Ring author Koji Suzuki, Dark Water follows Yoshimi, a single mother struggling to win sole custody of her only child, Ikuko. When they move into a new home within a dilapidated and long-forgotten apartment complex, Yoshimi begins to experience startling visions and unexplainable sounds, calling her mental well-being into question, and endangering not only her custody of Ikuko, but perhaps their lives as well.

Beautifully shot by cinematographer Junichiro Hayashi (Ring, Pulse), and featuring an especially unnerving sound design, Dark Water successfully merges spine-tingling tension with a family’s heart-wrenching emotional struggle, creating one of the very finest and most unsettling contemporary Japanese horror films.

STARRING: Hitomi Kuroki, Mirei Oguchi, Asami Mizukawa
