Jean Rollin
 

I'd love to see Shameless get there hands on some of his back catologue, esp Reqium for a vampire and the living dead girl. I know redmeption/salvation released these a while back, but I can't recall there being any extras.

The world rights are owned by Redemption - they're currently re-transferring them all to HD.

Le Frisson des Vampires in HD? I'll be all over that like a rash. :cool:

Which of his films should I seek out? I've only seen Lips of Blood, and that bored me to tears :sleep: . . .

I've not seen Lips Of Blood but i liked The Living Dead Girl, Fascination and The Grapes Of Death, some think he's a bit too arty but i've seen about 6 of his films and i liked them.

Id start with Living Dead Girl. Its like Rollins 'Smells like Teen Spirit' as its the most well known and I personally think its his best. Even Rob Zombie named a song after it, so you know its worth a look.

Really sure that they own the rights in the whole world? Many of them has been released by AWE

Well, if it's good enough for Rob Zombie :lol: ...

Cheers. I'll seek that one out and take it from there . . .

News for all Jean Rollin fans, this year, AWE releases Schoolgirl Hitchhikers in Scandinavia:

Have they spelt his name wrong there . . . ?

It should be " Jean Rollin's "

Not in Swedish

No. its the same as saying Rob Zombie's best album. It not spelling his name wrong just adding an S...?

Living Dead Girl is funnily enough the only film of Jean Rollin's I have seen and I really think its a wonderfully made film with a great artistic feel
I have the uncut UK dvd release by Redemption
