Faceless (1987) 2-Disc Special Edition (4K Ultra HD) Available August 30

IF THERE IS BUT ONE LIFE, THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS TO DIE.

For his 1988 big-budget EuroSleaze classic inspired by Eyes Without A Face, director Jess Franco brought together an international all-star cast – including Helmut Berger (The Damned), Brigitte Lahaie (The Female Executioner), Chris Mitchum (Summertime Killer), Stéphane Audran (Coup De Torchon), Caroline Munro (Maniac) and Telly Savalas – for a glossily depraved tale of disfigurement, dismemberment, libidinous brutes, Nazi surgeons, Parisian discos, face-ripping, throat-stabbing, eyeball-piercing and what may be Uncle Jess’ most rewardingly ambiguous ending ever. Anton Diffring (Circus Of Horrors) and Florence Guérin (Caligula & Messalina) co-star – with appearances by Howard Vernon (The Awful Dr. Orloff) and Lina Romay – in this unapologetically graphic shocker, now scanned for the first time in 4K from the original negative with all-new Special Features.

Two-disc set includes the American 4K Ultra HD premiere and remastered HD Blu-ray.

STARRING: Helmut Berger, Brigitte Lahaie, Chris Mitchum, Caroline Munro, Telly Savalas

Neptune Frost (2021) Available August 9

Multidisciplinary artists Saul Williams and Anisia Uzeyman bring their unique dynamism to the Afrofuturist vision of Neptune Frost. It is a sci-fi-punk-musical that’s a visually wondrous amalgamation of themes, ideas, and songs that they have been exploring in their work, including on Williams’ 2016 album MartyrLoserKing. Neptune Frost takes place in the hilltops of Burundi, where a group of escaped coltan miners form an anti-colonialist computer hacker collective. From their camp in an otherworldly e-waste dump, they attempt a takeover of the authoritarian regime exploiting the region’s natural resources – and its people. When an intersex runaway and an escaped miner find each other through cosmic forces, their connection sparks glitches within the greater divine circuitry. Set between states of being – past and present, dream and waking life, colonized and free, male and female, memory and prescience – Neptune Frost is an invigorating and empowering direct download to the cerebral cortex and a call to reclaim technology for progressive political ends.
