ISLE OF THE DAMNED (special edition): Dire Wit

In this loving homage/parody of the Italian cannibal genre of the late 70′s and early 80′s, private investigator Jack Steele is hired by a mysterious treasure hunter to help find the lost treasure of Marco Polo. Along for the trip is Jack’s adopted son, Billy. Their search brings them to an island off the coast of Argentina…and into the clutches of a primitive cannibal tribe, the Yamma Yamma. Alexis Kinkaid, a mysterious recluse who has made his home on the island amongst the cannibals, may hold the key to unlocking the island’s secret…if they don’t end up in the belly of a savage first!

This flick fucking rules! You can check out my review of Isle Of The Damned here

THE SINFUL DWARF (special edition): Severin

“A young bride,” promised the ads, “left alone to the lewd passions of an evil dwarf!” Severin Films is officially going to Hell – and taking you with them – with the first time ever in America DVD release of what may be the sleaziest film in EuroCult history! Diminutive former kiddie-show host Torben Bille (who looks disturbingly like Jack Black in a trash compactor) stars as a pint-sized pervert who imprisons drugged teenage sex slaves in the attic of his drunken mother’s decrepit rooming house…and that’s just the first ten minutes! The delicious Anne Sparrow – in her first and understandably only screen role – co-stars in this towering achievement in graphic depravity, now fully restored from a 35mm print discovered hidden in a janitor’s closet at the Danish Film Institute!

KEEP THE BLOOD FLOWING!!!
