In 2003, director Marcus Nispel made a lasting impression on horror fans with his box-office-topping remake The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Six years later, he turned his camera to another slasher icon, none other than the hulking masked killer Jason Voorhees, in his gore-soaked remake of Friday the 13th.

A group of oblivious teenagers choose Camp Crystal Lake as the destination for a weekend getaway. Among them, the young Clay Miller (Jared Padalecki, Supernatural) is not looking for fun and frolics, but for his sister Whitney who disappeared around the lake six weeks earlier. The trip turns into a waking nightmare as the bloodthirsty Jason emerges from the shadows, wielding a deadly machete and out for blood. Cut off from civilization, these youths discover too late that Crystal Lake bears the scars of a violent past as they uncover the terrifying events that spurred the masked killer’s quest for violent vengeance.

Nispel’s taut direction and the stunning cinematography by Daniel Pearl – whose credits include the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre as well as the remake – bring a fresh and terrifying new perspective to the infamous hockey-masked maniac, sure to bring chills and thrills to even hardened horror veterans!

STARRING: Aaron Yoo, Amanda Righetti, America Olivo, Arlen Escarpeta

Mondo Macabro presents I HATE MY BODY – A man’s brain, trapped in a woman’s body!

Lecherous businessmen Ernest and Peter go out for an evening of fun with two girls from work. There’s a lot of drinking and dancing and more than a little suggestion of frolics to follow, particularly when Ernest has the idea they swap partners. With the willing Rita by his side, he sets off in his car, roaring with laughter as they speed into the dark night. Momentarily distracted as he glances at his attractive passenger, Ernest loses control of the car. They crash into the side of a bridge and the vehicle bursts into flames.

The bodies are rushed to the nearest hospital where both Ernest and his passenger are certified dead on arrival. However, the hospital’s surgeon, Dr. Adolf Berger, a former medic in a Nazi death camp, discovers that Ernest’s brain is still intact. Encouraged by his female assistant, Lydia, Berger decides to try out his long cherished experiment- transplanting a brain from one body to another. However, the only body available is that of a young woman, Leda Schmidt, also technically dead in the hospital morgue. Casting aside all scruples, Berger begins the operation!

This outrageous film, which now has much contemporary relevance, was directed by horror specialist Leon Klimovsky, the man behind Paul Naschy’s WEREWOLF and THE VAMPIRE WOMAN, and numerous other Spanish “fantaterror” classics. The disc includes many exclusive extras and the feature has been fully restored.

STARRING: Alexandra Bastedo, Gemma Cuervo, Manuel Zarzo, Narciso Ibáñez Menta

19 FEATURE FILMS ON 10 DISCS

Including the award-winning documentary EXORCISMO: THE TRANSGRESSIVE LEGACY OF CLASIFICADA “S”

Plus 168-Page Book and 21+ Combined Hours of Special Features

Under the Franco dictatorship, Spain’s rigid censorship laws controlled all national entertainment. But following Franco’s death in 1975, certain films began to embody a period in Spanish history when cinematic expression became political freedom. Spanish audiences considered these films – featuring graphic explorations of sex, violence and horror – to be a cultural ‘exorcismo.’ These 18 films, including landmark features directed by Eloy de la Iglesia, León Klimovsky, Javier Aguirre and Eugenio Martín, range from those that dared to actively subvert the oppressive regime to productions made during the post-Franco era of ’70s/’80s exploitation excess. Also included is the award-winning Severin Films original documentary EXORCISMO: THE TRANSGRESSIVE LEGACY OF CLASIFICADA “S” narrated by Iggy Pop, in which writer/producer/director Alberto Sedano explores the history behind the notorious rating that rocked Spanish culture, changed the face of genre films and left its mark on global cinema forever. The majority of the titles in this unprecedented collection are Worldwide Blu-ray Premieres scanned in 4K from original camera negatives, curated with a 168-page book of essays, stills and posters, plus over 21 combined hours of new and archival Special Features.

Includes the films Exorcismo: The Transgressive Legacy of Clasificada “S”, Far from the Trees, The Bell from Hell, Creation of the Damned, The Devil’s Exorcist, After… Part One: Can’t You Be Left Alone?, The People Who Own the Dark, Battered Flesh, The Priest, Sins of a Nympho, Dimorfo, Bloody Sex, Morbus, Faces, Triangle of Lust, That House in the Outskirts, Supernatural, Poppers, After… Part Two: Tied Up and Tied Up Well
