American sweethearts Georgie and David travel to Spain seeking the wedding blessing of David's estranged and criminal father. Invited to stay at his palatial villa, they find themselves entering a world of wealth and danger beyond their wildest dreams.

When David's father is away on 'business' they head out for a night on the town where they meet seedy nightclub manager Marlon. He offers his new friends the VIP treatment, providing champagne and drugs. Caught up in the hedonistic atmosphere, David leaves Georgie alone for a moment. When he returns, she has vanished without trace, or a single witness. Now David must wade through corrupt local officials, drug dealers and crazy locals to find her, but is he ready to discover the truth?

Ichi is a blind minstrel wandering from town to town in feudal Japan. She is spurred on by the search for one man - the blind warrior who trained her in martial arts as a child. When she is threatened by a group of bandits, she is "saved" by Toma, an incompetent samurai who is unable to draw his sword. Rescuing her rescuer, she continues her journey, only to discover that the locals now think that Toma is a superb swordsman. The townsfolk want him as a lawman, the bandits want him dead, and none of them realise that it is Toma's blind associate who is the true martial artist. Reluctantly, Ichi becomes embroiled in a battle between two gangs for the mastery of the town. However, Ichi's initial feelings about her involvement change when she discovers that the gang leader Banki may know the whereabouts of the man she is seeking.

Dracula's Fiancee

Redemption Films

Director Jean Rollin

amazon link

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Draculas-Fia...0529312&sr=8-1



trailer http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi128188697/

A late addition in the Jean Rollin collection, Dracula's Fiancée has everything you might expect from the master of surreal horror, and so much more! Mad, chain-smoking nuns, raging dwarf-jesters, vampires, she-wolves, baby-eating Ogresses and wizards galore, as a professor and his young assistant on the hunt for Count Dracula's remains are thrown into a surreal parallel universe.

Reminiscent of his 1970s classics, Dracula's Fiancée is Rollin's homage to past successes, such as Requiem for a Vampire and Lips of Blood. A stunning master presented with a new and exclusively shot interview with the director on his life and work make this release a must for cult horror fans.

Suddenly their car dies and they are left alone in the dark, desolate desert. Out of the night a visitor appears in the rear window of the car... A visitor from another moment it time. Scared for their lives, Megan and Dylan run from the car into the lonely desert darkness where their nightmarish journey is only just beginning...

In the hostile mountains of Afghanistan, ancient Mongolian warfare battles the highest US military trained experts in a paranormal fight for survival.

Sentinel

Boasting a jaw-dropping cast including Christopher Walken, Jeff Goldblum, Ava Gardner, Jose Ferrer, Burgess Meredith,
Beverly D'Angelo this contemporary gothic chiller successfully manages to weave almost every successful '70's horror trend into one truly terrifying movie.

When a beautiful model, Alison Parker (Cristina Raines), rents an apartment in a gloomy New York block little does she realise the unspeakable horrors that await her behind it's mysterious doors.

Based on Jeffrey Konvitz's best-selling novel, The Sentinel is one of those films that either makes you ill or scares the bejeezes out of you!
