"NEW UK/US TITLE: Dead or Alive Trilogy Blu-ray/DVD releases

Each of them unique in theme and tone, the Dead or Alive films showcase Miike at the peak of his strengths

Pre-order Dead or Alive Trilogy UK Blu-ray: Dead or Alive Trilogy
Pre-order Dead or Alive Trilogy UK DVD: Product not found!
Release Dates: 13th/14th March

Beginning with an explosive, six-minute montage of sex, drugs and violence, and ending with a phallus-headed battle robot taking flight, Takashi Miike's unforgettable Dead or Alive Trilogy features many of the director's most outrageous moments set alongside some of his most dramatically moving scenes. Made between 1999 and 2002, the Dead or Alive films cemented Miike's reputation overseas as one of the most provocative enfants terrible of Japanese cinema, yet also one of its most talented and innovative filmmakers.

In Dead or Alive, tough gangster Ryuichi (Riki Takeuchi) and his ethnically Chinese gang make a play to take over the drug trade in Tokyo's Shinjuku district by massacring the competition. But he meets his match in detective Jojima (Show Aikawa), who will do everything to stop them. Dead or Alive 2: Birds casts Aikawa and Takeuchi together again, but as new characters, a pair of rival yakuza assassins who turn out to be childhood friends; after a botched hit, they flee together to the island where they grew up, and decide to devote their deadly skills to a more humanitarian cause. And in Dead or Alive: Final, Takeuchi and Aikawa are catapulted into a future Yokohama ruled by multilingual gangs and cyborg soldiers, where they once again butt heads in the action-packed and cyberpunk-tinged finale to the trilogy.

Each of them unique in theme and tone, the Dead or Alive films showcase Miike at the peak of his strengths, creating three very distinct movies connected only by their two popular main actors, each film a separate yet superb example of crime drama, character study, and action filmmaking.

"NEW UK ONLY TITLE: Pieces Limited Edition Dual Format Blu-ray & DVD

Pieces is the original sickening slasher classic, now restored in glorious 4K!

Pre-order your copy: Pieces - Limited Edition Dual Format
Release Date: 27th March 2017

IT’S EXACTLY WHAT YOU THINK IT IS!

From Juan Piquer Simón, director of the equally unhinged Slugs, Pieces is the original sickening slasher classic, now restored in glorious 4K!

A Boston college campus is being terrorised by a black-clad maniac who collects body parts from his unfortunate co-ed victims. As the corpses (and red herrings) begin to pile up, can Professor Brown (genre veteran Jack Taylor) unmask the murderer before his morbid puzzle is complete?

Boasting some of the most outrageous gore set-pieces ever to splash their way across the screen (including a particularly memorable slow-motion evisceration atop a waterbed), Pieces is an essential slice of Spanish splatter and more gruesome than ever on Blu-ray.

LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS:
•Brand new 4K transfer from the original camera negative
•Two versions of the feature: Pieces, the US theatrical version, and Mil Gritos Tiene La Noche, the original uncensored director's cut, presented in Spanish with original score by Librado Pastor [Blu-ray exclusive]
•High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) and Standard Definition DVD presentations
•Original English and Spanish Mono Audio
•Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
•5.1 Vine Theater Experience

•Brand new interview with art director Gonzalo Gonzalo
•Pieces of Juan – a career-spanning interview with director Juan Piquer Simón
•The Reddest Herring – extensive interview with actor Paul Smith, including a discussion of Pieces
•Audio Interview with producer Steve Minasian
•Image Galleries
•Theatrical Trailer
•Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Marc Schoenbach
•Collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the film by critic Michael Gingold

Only The House Boxset for me this month. On the bright side I'm saving shitloads from Arrows first 3 month releases!!
Pieces, I guess if you haven't picked up the Grindhouse edition then this might appeal but there is no double dip enticement for me there, Dead or Alive I haven't seen so might look into but the re-releases are a disappointment yet again.

On an aside I have been reading that Arrows release of The Guyver is the cut version shorn of the more gory scenes, so if that is a dealbreaker for you, go for the uncut German Blu Ray instead.
