Haxan (1922) (Directed by Benjamin Christensen)

 

  • Blu-ray
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Benjamin Christensen, Maren Pedersen, Clara Pontoppidan
  • SYNOPSIS: Demonic possession, inquisitional torture, ritual orgies, fair maidens losing their virginity to the Devil — All these are featured in Haxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages, a one-of-a-kind “documentary” just as shocking today as it was in 1922. Its genesis began in 1919, when Benjamin Christensen, a filmmaker often referred to as the “D.W. Griffith of Denmark”, discovered the Malleus Maleficarum, a 15th century manual on capturing witches, in a bookstore. Convinced that witches still existed, the director set out to expose their persecution from medieval times to the present day. Christensen procured funding from a Swedish production company with the guarantee that he would have complete creative freedom. The director then assembled the best craftspeople and technicians possible, resulting in the most expensive Scandinavian film of its day. Unwilling to compromise, Christensen included massive amounts of nudity and gore unseen in any other film of the silent era. Audacious scenes include naked witches cavorting around a bonfire and a baby, supposedly drained of its blood, being tossed into a stew pot, all lorded over by Satan himself (played by Christensen.) Other sequences feature groundbreaking uses of optical effects and stop-motion animation. Haxan was banned for decades due to its graphic imagery and anti-religious themes. Regardless, its influence can be seen in the works of filmmakers such as Luis Bunel, Carl Theodor Dreyer, and Val Lewton. Christensen himself subsequently moved to Hollywood and worked for MGM and Warner Brothers, directing the horror films Mockery (1927; starring Lon Chaney) and Seven Footprints to Satan (1929).

Scary Movie (1991) (Directed by Daniel Erickson)

But is the haunted house as harmless as it seems, or has a psychotic mental patient found a new stomping ground? Shot in Austin, Texas, SCARY MOVIE combines Argento-esque neon, Freddy Krueger dreamscapes, and slapstick inspired by EVIL DEAD 2 to forge a valentine to Halloween, rubber monster masks, and chopped-off limbs. From the songs by Roky Erickson and Butthole Surfers to the surrealistic mood, this is a true discovery for adventurous horror-heads.

Killer Nun (1979) (Directed by Giulio Berruti)

 

  • Blu-ray (Special Edition)
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Anita Ekberg, Joe Dallesandro, Alida Valli
  • FROM THE SECRET FILES OF THE VATICAN!
  • Aging blonde-bombshell Anita Ekberg (La Dolce Vita, Pick-up Alley) gives a full-bodied performance as a sex-crazed sister with some seriously bad habits in the lurid cult classic Killer Nun.
  • One of the most notorious nunsploitation films, Killer Nun tells the sordid story of Sister Gertrude, a disturbed woman of the cloth who degenerates into a perverse mire of drug taking, sexual perversion, sadistic torture and murder. Joe Dallesandro (The Climber, Flesh for Frankenstein), Alida Valli (The Possessed, Suspiria) and the ample Paola Morra (Behind Convent Walls) offer spirited performances and able support to Ekberg, in this outrageous tale based on real events.
  • Boasting an incongruously classy score by legendary composer Alessandro Alessandroni (Women’s Camp 119) and stylishly rendered scenes of sex and murder, Killer Nun takes the viewer on a hair-raising journey from the heights of religious ecstasy to the depths of devilish degeneracy. Now Giulio Berruti s sleazy classic is presented in a stunning new 2K restoration with a liturgy of new extras, ready to be preyed upon.
