Gate trilogy, Lucio Fulci

Posted 20th February 2010 at 10:16 AM by kevarno1982

With Arrow realsing ''City of the Living Dead'' on Blue-ray in the not to distant future, will they be releasing, ''The Beyond'' (Lucio Fulci best work in my opinion with Zombie Flesheaters) and the third in the trilogy, ''House by the Cemetary''
Does anyone know if arrow will be releasing the full trilogy?

Thirst (Bakjwi - 2009)
Focus Features

The vampire genre, as we all know, has arisen from its coffin once again – thanks, some may say, to a Mormon. Though I don’t see Twilight as the saviour of the genre, I like to think Alan Ball and his excellent adaptation of Charlaine Harris’ Southern Vampire series, True Blood, is the saving grace behind the re-birth. It’s the anti-Twilight in everyway, and everything vampirism should be; dark, brooding, dangerous and sexual –...

Terror Express (La Regazza del Vagone Letto - 1979)
Camera Obscura

Terror Express is a late-comer to the rape/revenge genre that was launched by Wes Craven’s sadistic Last House on the Left, but it’s also one of the sleaziest, scrap that, possibly the sleaziest; though that really isn’t that shocking when you realise it’s from the same mind that conjured up such classy titles as Porno Holocaust and Erotic Nights of the Living Dead - Luigi Montefiori (A.K.A George Eastman)....

The Slasher genre is no stranger to controversy, but there was one film that went a little too far with its seasonal slaughter – 1984s Silent Night, Deadly Night.

Well, one of Liverpool's premier CAMRA pubs was hosting a German beer festival so I went to that and generally filled up on German beer plus one Halloween-themed ale entitled Headless Horseman. All in all it was pretty awesome.This was then topped by staggering home, ordering pizza, drinking Fosters and watching Halloween and Halloween...

Last night I screened the Argento cut of Dawn of the Dead to a rapturous and occasionally confused audience of Halloween freaks in the achingly hip Buffalo Bar, Cardiff.

Rapturous because it's Dawn of the Dead, it's Halloween and nothing gets a crowd in the mood for all night dancing like gut munching Zombies in an abandoned shopping centre.

Confusion because most of the people were familiar with the film and the alternate...

I’ve decided to write down my thoughts (as a humble user) about high definition, specifically blu-ray, and list what I have found to be the pros and cons of the format. With the Arrow release of Dawn of the Dead on blu-ray looming hopefully this may help people to decide if the switch to HD is really worth it.

If you watch the American cut it’s a fun, care-free sex comedy! How can one film vary so dramatically?

You're prepared, you know where you want your story and characters to go: Time to write!

But before you start writing you should remember that there'll ALWAYS be a 2nd draft, a 3rd, probably many, many more.
Which means- to me at least

- that the first draft is still very much a testing ground.
Thanks to the treatment, you don't have to think about the whole of your script for each and every line, you can concentrate on your script scene by scene, as the path you've intended...

So they put their best men - Bull (Miles O'Keeffe), Karl (Milton Morris) and Paolo (Chuck Bishop) on the case with instructions to kidnap Pinheiro and bring him back to the U.S.A.

How to start Scriptwriting Part 4: The Treatment

Posted 8th June 2009 at 06:31 AM by Peter Neal
Updated 8th June 2009 at 07:54 AM by Peter Neal

A treatment in the "professional" sense- the kind you send on its journey to production companies and cultural/media funds- is telling your movie's story from start to finish, scene by scene, on 10+ pages (depending on the length you're aiming at).
You should avoid reflecting too much about what's happening INSIDE your characters, most important is what's actually supposed to happen on screen.

OK so I'm an aspiring Horror Director; have been making Short Films since I was 10. To cut a long story short, a few years ago I decided to attempt a homage to my beloved Giallo genre. That was SLASH HIVE (aka SIX DEATHS IN A WASP'S EYE);

which you can see here:

...We screened it around the place, various festivals, even got a plug on XFM by Alex Zane, who really liked it.

SLASH HIVE was shot in one day on bugger all money, so the...

Beefed Up Scary Audio For the "Video Nasties" in 70's/80's Germany

Posted 2nd May 2009 at 10:16 AM by Peter Neal
Updated 2nd May 2009 at 10:28 AM by Peter Neal

Okay, I have no clue whether this newest entry to my blog will be of any interest to UK genre fans, but as a long term German collector of horror titles from the 70's and 80's I felt an urge to add a bit of info on what makes some of the German language versions of our beloved "Video Nasties" so unique compared to any other editions around the globe.

Very much unlike today (apart from cuts to escape the wrath of the German censors

), distributors toyed a lot around with...

Dementia (Daughter of Horror)

Dementia (Daughter of Horror)

A real oddity, Dementia (also known by it's alternate title, Daughter Of Horror), started life as a 10 minute short before Director John Parker expanded this essentially silent movie into a 60-minute feature.

The movies only real dialogue comes from a narrator, a trick used in a lot of sleazy sex pictures in the 60s such as the Olga series of S&M movies. He welcomes us in the horrific depths of a fractured...

If

Malcolm McDowell (Clockwork Orange) takes on the establishment in this allegorical tale about the horror's of the British Public school system. Made in 1968, when popular culture seemed to be questioning everything, If... mirrored the global explosion of youth rebellion and it presents an educational system for the sons of the well off that seems designed to brutalize and beat the will out of young boys.

Directed by Lindsay Anderson...

Rosemary's Baby

"This isn't a dream... This is really happening!"

Mia Farrow stars with John Cassavetes in Roman Polanski's timeless chiller about Guy, a jobbing actor, and his elfin wife, moving into an old fashioned apartment building in New York City*. The filmmakers used the Dakota Building, which became infamous later on as the place outside which John Lennon was shot. The loving couple soon become friendly with the apparently...

Terror

A very young Jack Nicholson stars in this Roger Corman cheapy in which a young soldier in the Napoleonic wars chases a mystery women into an old, and of course creepy, castle occupied by a frail Baron, played by Boris Karloff.

The Baron is a deeply troubled man as a twisted old witch is trying to drive him to suicide and the strange girl that Nicholson followed is in on the plot...With Nicholson trapped in the eerie castle, all...

Unlikely Horror Gem #1: Nature Morte

Tags art, dvd, killer, obscure, salvation

I thought that I would start my blog with a topic that is very close to my heart: Obscure, but excellent (in my eyes anyway) pieces of horror film-making available on DVD, that may have escaped the radar of even the most keen eyed movie hound.

The DVD market is saturated with obscure horror DVD’s nowadays thanks to the disappearance of the BBFC’s iron fist on censorship, growing demand from a wider fan base, and great DVD labels who are prepared to invest in movies, and who believe...

Cat in the Brain

My review of Lucio Fulci's gore-opus is up over at Wildside.

Veteran filmmaker, Lucio Fulci, is haunted by the crimes he’s committed – on celluloid! Visions of graphic murder are consuming him and driving him to the brink of insanity; murders that he shot for his movies and for his audience. When reports of a real-life serial killer hit the news, Fulci seeks the help of psychiatrist, Egon Schwarz, but the professor has other designs for poor old Lucio… Deadly designs, in which...

My review of Shameless Screen Entertainment's latest DVD is up at Wildside.

Valentina Rosselli (Isabella de Funés), narrowly escapes getting mowed down by a swank limousine while returning from a party. The owner of the limo is Baba Yaga (Carroll Barker), an older woman who is instantly smitten by the young Valentina. It turns out that Baba is actually an ancient witch, who digs women – and she wants Valentina. When she is rejected by the young fashion photographer, the hag places...

Memories of Murder: Death of a Nation’s Innocence.

Bong Joon-ho’s 2003 masterpiece, Memories of Murder (Salinui Chueok) may not be held in such high regard with international audiences as, say, Park Chan-wook’s teeth-pulling, hammer-time classic Old Boy; which was released the same year and would go on to earn many, many awards on the international festival-circuit but in its homeland, it was Memories of Murder that was the smash-hit; drawing wayward of five-million admissions...
