Arrow Video is extremely proud to unveil not one but TWO
as yet-unannounced forthcoming titles! SUBMITTED FOR YOUR APPROVAL: from the master Italian
schlock, Ovidio G. Assonitis, the barmy 1979 sci-fi horror mash-up THE VISITOR
and – for the hardened cult movie freaks amongst you – the infamous 1987
underground German shocker NEKROMANTIK!!!
For those of you who've been living under a rock in recent months,
THE VISITOR is the ultimate experience in B-movie madness from Ovidio G.
Assonitis, shlock producer extraordinaire and director of such deliciously guilty
pleasures as Beyond the Door and Tentacles. Described by various sources
as “one of the most mind-altering cinematic experiences of the 1970s” and “the
Mount Everest of insane ‘70s Italian movies”, THE VISITOR brings together an astonishing
ensemble cast (Lance Henriksen, Shelley Winters and Mel Ferrer to name but a
few) in a hallucinatory intergalactic tale of a demonic little girl and her pet
hawk. In the words of one astute reviewer, THE VISITOR is “the most fun you can
have in a movie theatre without risking permanent brain damage”!
Next up on the chopping block, it is with immeasurable pleasure
that we can finally announce our upcoming release of Jorg Buttgereit’s inimitable
girls (and guys!) 'n' corpses flick NEKROMANTIK. Never released on home video
in the UK (distributors didn’t even dare submit it for classification),
NEKROMANTIK plunges the viewer into a depraved world of nihilism and
necrophilia – weaving the tale of Rob, a young man who finds himself competing
for the affections of his girlfriend with a putrefying cadaver. So prepare
yourself for Arrow Video's full, uncut version of NEKROMANTIK – the film once seen, never
forgotten!
What’s more, we’re deliriously happy to reveal that both
films will form part of the core programme of this year’s SCALARAMA, which was
unveiled last night at the inaugural event in London’s Horse Hospital. Over the
month of September, SCALARAMA will bring together screening venues up and down
the UK in a nationwide celebration of all things cinema! Keep your eyes peeled –
screening details (as well as more title-specific news) to follow.
