NEW UK TITLE: Nekromantik 2 (Dual Format Blu-ray & DVD) Jörg Buttgereit’s follow-up to his ground-breaking Nekromantik is just as shocking as its reputation would suggest. Pre-order your copy via Arrow: http://bit.ly/2oRzBYY Pre-order on Amazon: http://amzn.to/2oRAO2s Release Dates: 3 July 2017 THE RETURN OF THE LOVING DEAD Monika isn’t like other young women. She shares her small flat with Rob, a recently disinterred corpse which serves as the object of her affections. But then she meets good-natured Mark, and soon finds herself torn between the prospect of a ‘normal’ life with a living, breathing partner and her overwhelming desire for her rotting bed-fellow. Once prosecuted in its native Germany for “glorifying violence”, Jörg Buttgereit’s follow-up to his ground-breaking Nekromantik is just as shocking as its reputation would suggest. But it’s also a profoundly moving (if decidedly twisted) love story, and a thought provoking meditation on the nature of life and death.

I'm glad I didn't pursue buying the DVD of Psycho 2 last week. I can't remember what it was that made me want to buy it, I think Tom Holland talked about it in 'You're So Cool Brewster' and I realised I've not seen it for years!
