Film Movement has provided a promotional trailer for the recent restoration of Kinji Fukasaku's cult film Ferocious Fukasaku: Two Films By Kinji Fukasaku (1976), which will be included in a double-feature release scheduled to arrive on the market on October 29. Also included below is a promotional trailer for the recent restoration of Fukasaku's Wolves, Pigs & Men (1964). Special Features and Technical Specs: This thrilling two-disc set features a double dose of hyperbolic heist movie mayhem directed by the great Kinji Fukasaku (Battles Without Honor and Humanity, Battle Royale), restored to HD, and, for the first time ever, available on Blu Ray in North America. Fukasaku's 1964 breakthrough Wolves, Pigs and Men finds three brothers pitted against each other as rivals in the Yakuza underworld. Jiro, alongside his girlfriend Mizuhara, devises a scheme to rob his younger brother Sabu's gang. However, when the eldest brother Kuroki learns of this, he seeks to conspire against them to take it all for himself in a treacherous nightmare of unbridled violence. While lesser known, 1976's Violent Panic: The Big Crash wreaks havoc across the streets of Japan with stylishly nihilistic aplomb. After expert bank-robber Takashi's big job is foiled, he goes on the lam. Trailed by the police, his lover, his partner-in-crime's brother, and countless others, Takashi becomes the target of a manhunt filled with twists, double-crosses, and explosive action that gives the 70's car chase genre a run for its money. Special Features and Technical Specs: TWO-DISC SET Wolves, Pigs and Men: • Audio commentary by Japanese cinema expert Jasper Sharp • Interview with Fukasaku biographer Sadao Yamane • Interview with co-screenwriter Junya Sato • Interview with Producer Tatsu Yoshida • English subtitles Violent Panic: The Big Crash: • Audio commentary by Japanese cinema expert Jasper Sharp • Fast, Furious, Fukasaku video essay by Tokyoscope author Patrick Macias • English subtitles • 16-page booklet with New essay by film critic Kenji Fujishima • REGION-A "LOCKED" Spoiler

Grindhouse Releasing has dated its upcoming Blu-ray release of Hollywood 90028 a.k.a. The Hollywood Hillside Strangler (1973). The release is scheduled to arrive on the market November 26. Description: HOLLYWOOD 90028 shows the dark side of the L.A. dream in the bleak and downbeat story of an aspiring movie cameraman turned serial murderer. Mark (Christopher Augustine) is a disturbed loner who toils in the sub-basement of the movie business as a cameraman shooting porno films for swinish boss Jobal (Dick Glass). In his off hours, Mark prowls the peep shows and strip clubs of Los Angeles to prey on random young women who he picks up and strangles to death. When Mark pursues a romantic interest in Michelle (Jeannette Dilger), a model who he films in one of Jobal's sleazy movies, the grim reality behind the fantasy leads the frustrated cinematographer to shoot a different kind of Hollywood ending. Written and directed by esteemed experimental filmmaker Christina Hornisher, and beautifully captured through the lens of camera operator Jean-Pierre Geuens, who later shot the horror classic LEMORA: A CHILD'S TALE OF THE SUPERNATURAL, HOLLYWOOD 90028 offers a vivid time capsule of Los Angeles in the early 1970s. Special Features and Technical Specs: • NEW 4K RESTORATION FROM THE ORIGINAL CAMERA NEGATIVE • Provocative, in-depth interviews with stars Christopher Augustine, Jeannette Dilger, Gayle Davis, editor Leon Ortiz-Gil, and Tom DeSimone • Audio commentaries by Marc E.

^ Teatterissa kävin ihastelemassa tätä genreperusteita kylmäävän tehokkaasti ruoskivaa ja kuvatun kätkettyä symboliikkaa tulvivaa sekä sisällöllisesti(kin) suorastaan ratkaisevan erilaista trikkien ja kameraotosten kirjoa, missä mielikuvituksen puute loistaa poissaolollaan ja saa kylmät väreet valumaan pitkin selkäpiitä. Tämä, jos mikä on 4K restauroinnin ansainnut, sillä niin surullista kuin se on, on olemassa olevat Blu-ray julkaisut elokuvasta häpeällisen heikkolaatuisia kaikki tyynni. Tällä välin 4K restaurointia yhä hartaammin toivoen myös elokuville: Spoiler

^Shout Factory julkaisun omistan ja jää tämä ostamatta. Kunpa 1 ja 2 olisi saanut 4K UHD julkaisut. Tuli Critters nähtyä elokuvissa ja olen aina pitänyt (3+/5). Critters 2 (2,5/5) on myös ok. Mutta muut ovat mitä ovat.
Arrow -julkaisustahan levisi tiedot mm. foorumilla jo 27.9. Minkäänlaista tarvetta kärsiä ko. julkaisusta ei onneksi enää ole, kun Scream Factory boksi löytyy hyllystä, mutta todella hienoa jälleen, että myös B-alue saa arvoisensa julkaisun. Sääli vain, että boksin estetiikka on lähes yhtä hirveä kuin verrokki Scream'ssä. Aivan järkky... Spoiler Tämä ensimmäisen osan alkuperäisjuliste olisi ajanut asiansa boksissa mennen tullen koko saagan edestä. Tunnelmaltaan paras ja hieno kuin mikä!
