Summary Notes

When Jesse Lujack steals a car in Las Vegas and drives down to LA, his criminal ways only escalate - but when will it end?

US: Uncut and MPAA R rated for:

Promotional Material

Jesse (Richard Gere, American Gigolo), a restless and cocky common criminal with a penchant for fast cars, rock n roll music and comic books, finds himself obsessed with Monica (Valérie Kaprisky, La Femme Publique), a French exchange student at UCLA. On the run for car theft and the accidental slaying of a highway patrolman, Jesse finds himself on the streets of Los Angeles, passing time in swimming pools, making love with Monica and dodging the law that is closing in on him.

A controversial remake of Jean-Luc Godards iconic staple of the French New Wave, Ŕ bout de souffle (1960), BREATHLESS is a decidedly 80s updating of the tried-and-true merging of romance and crime, giving way to the sex and violence expected from its era. Directed by American iconoclast Jim McBride (David Holzmans Diary, The Big Easy), who co-wrote the script with L.M. Kit Carson (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2; Paris, Texas), BREATHLESS is a potent blast of pop-culture idolization, eschewing the gritty monochrome of its source for a vibrant, colorful, Los Angeles, gorgeously captured by director of photography Richard H. Kline (Body Heat, The Fury). Cinématographe is proud to present Jim McBrides illustrious neo-noir in its world UHD debut of a new 4K restoration from its original camera negative.

The story of two outlaws and a bounty hunter in 1940s Manchuria.

ONE MAP. THREE VILLAINS. WINNER TAKES ALL.

Genre maestro Kim Jee-woon (A Tale of Two Sisters) set his sights on new frontiers and spiced them up with his rollicking kimchi western The Good, the Bad, the Weird. Wrangling three of Korea's biggest stars, he orchestrated an audacious action epic sweeping across the dusty Manchurian plains.

In the 1930s, three gun-toting Koreans converge on a train with different objectives but after an explosive altercation they leave it with the same goal: track down a map leading to an unfathomable treasure. The 'Good' is bounty hunter Park Dowon (Jung Woo-sung, 12.12: The Day), who is chasing down the 'Bad', the ruthless bandit Park Chang-yi (Lee Byung-hun, A Bittersweet Life), rumored to be the notorious 'Finger Cutter'. Meanwhile, wily thief Yoon Tae-goo (Song Kang-ho, Parasite), the 'Weird', is on the hunt for anything he can get his hands on. Backs are stabbed, fingers are cut, and many bullets fly as this dangerous trio blast their way through the desert in search of untold riches.

This glorious resurrection of the Manchurian Western was the biggest and most ambitious production ever undertaken in Korea. Presented here in stunning 4K, experience this spicy slice of wild west mayhem as you've never seen it before.

Promotional Material

101 Films presents The Dollman Toybox: Dollman X Demonic Toys Collection featuring Dollman (1991), Demonic Toys (1992) & Dollman Vs Demonic Toys (1993). This limited edition 4-disc set brings together Dollman, Demonic Toys and their many spin offs for the very first time, and includes the complete Dollman Kills the Full Moon Universe comic book.

Dollman: Brick Bardo (Tim Thomerson - Trancers) is a traveller from outer space who is forced to land on Earth. Though regular sized on his home planet, he is doll-sized here on Earth, as are the enemy forces who have landed as well. While Brick enlists the help of an impoverished girl and her son, the bad guys enlist the help of a local gang. When word leaks out to his location all hell breaks loose. Brick is besieged by an onslaught of curious kids, angry gang members, and his own doll-sized enemies. Now he must protect the family who has helped him and get off the planet alive.

Demonic Toys: Theyre cute and cuddly by day, lethal demons by night. Ruthless killing machines come out alive for just one purpose...death. And for five adults in an abandoned warehouse, every childs worst nightmare has become a deadly reality. While on a stakeout, Judith Gray (Tracy Scoggins), a beautiful, tough cop, is trapped inside a warehouse full of toys. But these are no ordinary playthings - they have been awakened to murderous life by a strange child of darkness, The Kid (Daniel Cerny). Each toy feeds on blood: Jack Attack heads straight for the throat, Grizzly Teddy is not afraid to show its claws, and Baby Oopsie Daily is truly to die for. Now its up to Gray and a passing delivery boy, Mark Wayne (Bentley Mitchum), to stop the Demonic Toys!

Dollman Vs Demonic Toys: All is not well in Toyland! When undercover cop Judith Gray (Tracy Scoggins, reprising her original role) discovers the murderous Demonic Toys have returned to the Toyland warehouse, she has only one thought in mind: destroy the hideous playthings at all costs. But she needs help. She turns to the only man on Earth who can measure up to these toy chest terrors, Brick Bardo aka Dollman (Tim Thomerson). Joined by his girlfriend, the equally diminutive Ginger (reduced to 11 inches in Bad Channels), future cop Bardo teams with Judith to battle the mutant toys. Now Bardo must fight to save his life and his love as Baby Oopsie develops a large 'crush' on the luscious Ginger...

Sorcerer

Sorcerer is a 1977 US/Mexico adventure thriller by William Friedkin
Starring Roy Scheider, Bruno Cremer and Francisco Rabal BBFC link 2020 IMDb

The European version titled Wages of Fear was shortened. The US version titled Sorcerer is complete

Summary Notes

Four unfortunate men from different parts of the globe agree to risk their lives transporting gallons of nitroglycerin across dangerous Latin American jungle.

UK: The US Version is uncut and BBFC 15 rated for strong violence, injury detail:
  • 2025 Spirit Entertainment R0 4K Blu-ray at UK Amazon #ad released on 6th October 2025

Promotional Material

A hallucinatory journey into the heart of darkness, William Friedkin's pulse-pounding reimagining of the suspense classic The Wages of Fear was dismissed upon its release, only to be recognized decades later as one of the boldest auteur statements of the New Hollywood. In a remote Latin American village, four desperate fugitives-a New Jersey gangster (Roy Scheider), a Mexican assassin (Francisco Rabal), an unscrupulous Parisian businessman (Bruno Cremer), and an Arab terrorist (Amidou)-take on a seemingly doomed mission: transporting two trucks full of highly explosive nitroglycerin through the treacherous jungle. Aided by Tangerine Dream's otherworldly synth score, Friedkin turns each bump in the road into a tour de force of cold-sweat tension-conjuring a hauntingly nihilistic vision of a world ruled by chance and fate.

Chromeskull - Laid to Rest 2

Chromeskull: Laid to Rest 2 is a 2011 US slasher horror by Robert Hall
Starring Brian Austin Green, Thomas Dekker and Mimi Michaels BBFC link 2020 IMDb

The German version was ridiculously edited for violence by 9 minutes in order to get a FSK-18 rating, pretty much every death scene is shortened to reduce the blood and gore. Uncut version is soft-banned (put on the BPjM Index B list which means medium chances of being confiscated down the road).

Summary Notes

"ChromeSkull" is the sequel to the 2009 horror hit "Laid to Rest." It brings back ChromeSkull, who barely escaped death in the first movie and is hell-bent on continuing where he left off... and forging a new path of terror and destruction.

UK: Uncut and BBFC 18 rated for strong gory violence, horror:

As a new wave of victims is drawn into his path, a mysterious organisation backing his murderous spree begins to surface. Meanwhile, the survivors of his first rampage struggle to stay alive, realising that Chromeskull is no lone maniac... hes part of something much more terrifying. Directed once again by Robert Hall, Chromeskull: Laid to Rest 2 raises the stakes with more blood, more lore, and even more inventive kills. Featuring genre favourites Brian Austin Green and Danielle Harris, this gruesome sequel builds on the originals brutal legacy with higher production values and a relentless pace that slasher fans will devour.

THEY WILL RISE TO SUCK THE BLOOD OF THE LIVING!

From the sleazy video nasty vaults comes a movie so stained with controversy and moral indignation that the very mention of its name sends shudders down the spines of the weak-stomached and censorious -- Zombie Flesh Eaters .

A young American woman and a journalist investigate a tropical island where a deadly disease is making the dead walk... Soon, thoughts of getting to the bottom of the murderous curse will be forgotten, as Fulcis walking corpses overwhelm the living and reports come in that the Big Apple is swarming with the living dead...

After over 45 years, Zombie Flesh Eaters still has the power to shock and offend the unwilling. Check out this classic sadist video and revel in a wonderfully tasteless movie that once helped usher in a moral panic!

Death Packs a Suitcase

Death Packs a Suitcase is a 1972 West Germany/Spain/UK crime horror thriller by Jesús Franco
Starring Horst Tappert, Fred Williams and Barbara Rütting IMDb

There are no censorship issues with this release

Summary Notes

A London slasher pack the suitcases of his victims before stabbing them to death in this adaptation of Edgar Wallace's 'Secret of the Black Suitcases.'

US: Uncut and MPAA Unrated for:

Promotional Material

A black-gloved killer stalks London, packing the suitcases of their victims before murdering them with an exotic dagger. Surrounded by potential suspects but lacking hard evidence, a smooth-talking Inspector (Fred Williams, The Vengeance of Dr. Mabuse) seeks the help of famous crime-novelist Charles Barton (Horst Tappert, German TVs Derrick). Euro-horror filmmaker Jess Franco took a break from his decadent sex thrillers (Vampyros Lesbos) to demonstrate his versatility with this whodunit. Working carefully within the genre of the German 'Krimi' film, Franco nevertheless managed to infuse the film with personal touches: dynamic camerawork, seductive women, comic flourishes, all set to a jazz soundtrack by Rolf Kühn. Also released as Der Todesrächer von Soho (The Avenger of Soho), Death Packs a Suitcase was adapted from a story by Bryan Edgar Wallace, who carried on the literary tradition of his father, legendary mystery-writer Edgar Wallace (The Dark Eyes of London).

- Audio Commentary by Film Historians Troy Howarth and Nathaniel Thompson

Summary Notes

A surgeon causes a car accident which leaves his daughter disfigured and goes to extreme lengths to give her a new face.

US: Uncut and MPAA Unrated for:

Promotional Material

At his secluded château in the French countryside, a brilliant, obsessive doctor (Pierre Brasseur) attempts a radical plastic surgery to restore the beauty of his daughters disfigured countenance--at a horrifying price. Eyes Without a Face, directed by the supremely talented Georges Franju, is rare in horror cinema for its odd mixture of the ghastly and the lyrical, and it has been a major influence on the genre in the decades since its release. There are images here--of terror, of gore, of inexplicable beauty--that once seen are never forgotten.

Banned by the BBFC for 1975 and 1976 cinema release. Not submitted since. Uncut and Unrated in the US

Summary Notes

A sadistic warden at a Nazi death camp conducts "medical experiments" to prove that women are more resilient than men, all while a revolt is being plotted by a prisoner she takes a fancy to.

US: Uncut and MPAA Unrated for:

Promotional Material

The textbook example of Nazisploitation, and a cornerstone of the 1970s sexploitation cinema, Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS dramatizes the atrocities performed by a sadistic commandant (Dyanne Thorne) at a German concentration camp. Ilsa uses male prisoners as sexual playthings and women as subjects of medical torture, then brutally executes all who fail to satisfy her unholy desires. Despite being condemned by film critic Gene Siskel as the most degenerate picture I have seen... a textbook for rapists and mutilation freaks, Don Edmonds's orgy of violence became a runaway success, immortalizing Thorne as a grindhouse goddess and inspiring three sequels and a host of imitations, none of which could rival the shocking depravity of the original.

Summary Notes

A policeman forsakes his dream of world travel to care for a mentally impaired brother, who is later kidnapped by gangsters.

UK: BBFC 18 rated for strong violence:

Promotional Material

World-famous for their action and derring-do, old friends Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung teamed up for a film that shows there's much more to them than brawling.

Jackie plays a good-hearted cop looking after his learning-disabled brother Danny, played by Sammo, but doesn't always succeed in keeping him out of trouble. When Danny is taken as a hostage, his brother will risk everything - his career and even his life ---to rescue him, throwing it down as only Jackie Chan can.

Made the same year as Police Story, Heart of Dragon was a change of pace for the great action artists, giving them a chance to show of their acting chops as well as their stunt skills - even if they don't ignore the latter! 88 Films are proud to present this Worldwide 4K premiere of a Hong Kong classic.

Banned as a video nasty in 1983. Released uncut on 18 rated 2006 DVD. Uncut and MPAA Unrated in the US. Thanks to Mike.

Summary Notes

Near the end of WW2, prisoners of war are used in experiments to perfect the "Aryan" race.

UK: Uncut and BBFC 18 rated for strong violence, sex and nudity:

Promotional Material

Possibly the most infamous entry into the Nazisploitation genre, Sergio Garrones SS Experiment Camp is a harrowing and deliberately triggering experience which, even by todays standards is as powerful as it was when originally released in 1976. From its provocative, tabloid baiting original poster of a naked woman dangling crucified and naked, the movie pushed the boundaries as far as it could. Set during the tail-end of World War II we follow the deranged experiments performed on innocent prisoners of war by the utterly sadistic and evil Colonel von Kleiben in his attempt to create the perfect Aryan race. Shocking, notorious and endlessly exploitative, the movie continues to disgust audiences all over the globe nearly 50 years after its initial release.

Summary Notes

A mild-mannered man becomes a local hero through an act of violence, which sets off repercussions that will shake his family to its very core.

UK: Uncut and BBFC 18 rated for strong violence, injury detail, sexual threat:

Promotional Material

In David Cronenbergs subtly provocative film, one of his most celebrated, all is not as it initially seems. In his first of many collaborations with the director, Viggo Mortensen delivers a highly nuanced performance as Tom Stall, a small-town husband and father who is hailed as a hero when he kills the would-be perpetrators of a violent robbery. But how did this ordinary family man dispatch them with such skill? Working with an exceptional cast that also includes Maria Bello, Ed Harris, and William Hurt, Cronenberg slyly deconstructs the mythos of the American action hero, posing elemental questions about identity, human nature, and the violence that we both abhor and cant look away from.

From Abel Ferrara, director of The Driller Killer and King of New York , comes a terrifying revenge-thriller in the tradition of Death Wish and Taxi Driver ... Ms. 45 (aka Angel of Vengeance ) will blow you away.

New York, 1980. Raped at gunpoint on her way home from work, mute seamstress Thana returns to the safety of her apartment only to be assaulted again by a burglar; but this time she fights back. Bludgeoning her assailant with an iron, she takes his gun and begins to dispose of the body piece by piece. Fuelled by her trauma, Thana sees that sexual threat is everywhere in the city and decides to bring a .45 calibre solution to the problem.

A devastating depiction of sexual violence and female rage, with a stunning central performance from Zoë Lund (credited as Zoë Tamerlis), Ms. 45 arrives on 4K UHD in a brand-new restoration that gives an extraordinary glimpse into the grimy glamour of New York in the 80s and with all its controversial power intact.

From out the seething heat of the endless desert comes the nameless man (Robert John Burke, RoboCop 3, Thinner), his worn-down boot-heels tapping across the hard-baked earth. His old and ruthless spirit has smelled the town dying from afar and he has come to collect the souls to build his power. Soon the wasteland is littered with burned and disfigured remains and Ben Mukurob (Zakes Mokae, The Serpent and the Rainbow), the last policeman in the small town of Bethany, is faced with a mystery that threatens his eternal soul. Into this maelstrom of horror comes Wendy (Chelsea Field, Masters of the Universe), a young woman on the run from a broken marriage. Her flight has led her into the desert and perhaps into the arms of the Devil Himself. Filmmaking visionary Richard Stanley (director of the seminal cyberpunk shocker Hardware) has conjured a mystical mélange of windswept Spaghetti Western and hallucinatory horror/fantasy, spectacularly filmed on location in the Great Namib Desert of Africa. This Special Edition of Dust Devil includes Richard Stanleys Directors Cut and the original, altered Theatrical Cut -- both versions gloriously restored in 4K!

*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!*

Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterful restoration and distribution of cult, horror, and erotic films from the 1960s-90s.

"There's nothing more despicable than a bent policeman." In a less-than-swinging area of London, the grizzled Detective Sgt. Pierce is obsessed with taking down a local kingpin, Quince, who is an expert at evading arrest, as he was once a policeman himself. Meanwhile, PC Strange is a new beat cop, fresh and idealistic about serving the public good, who meets a hippie girl named Frederika while quieting a street scuffle. Frederika takes an interest in Strange, who is quickly learning the harder realities of police life. When Strange gets trapped in a budding scandal, it's Pierce who convinces Strange he can save him, but only if Strange helps bend the law to entrap Quince.

An early feature from prolific telefilm director David Greene (I Start Counting; Rich Man, Poor Man), THE STRANGE AFFAIR combines the grit of US police drama with English working-class culture, delivering a strong update to the form with its multiple storylines and cynical eye on both pop culture and bureaucracy. Featuring powerful performances from Michael York (Austin Powers, Murder on the Orient Express), Susan George (Straw Dogs, Tintorera), and Jeremy Kemp (Top Secret!, Dr. Terror's House of Horrors), it also boasts a stunning soundtrack by experimental composer Basil Kirchin (The Abominable Dr. Phibes) and photography from Alex Thomson (The Keep). Vinegar Syndrome Labs is proud to offer the disc debut of this police thriller, newly restored in 4K from its original Techniscope negative.

Bonus Features:
1. Region A Blu-ray
2. Newly scanned and restored in 4K from its 35mm original negative

Crocodile Dundee: The Encore Cut

Crocodile Dundee: The Encore Cut is a 1986 Australia/US comedy adventure by Peter Faiman
Starring Paul Hogan, Linda Kozlowski and John Meillon BBFC link 2020 IMDb

The shortened International Version was cut for strong language. This was released in the UK without further cuts for a 15 rated cinema release in 1986. However BBFC category cuts were required for 15 rated VHS. These video cuts were waived for the DVD release of the International Version. In 2025 modern sensitivities resulted in transgender jokes being cut for a version entitled The Encore Cut.

The UK theatrical version was uncut though video releases were edited by 23 seconds for a '15' certificate by the BBFC to remove shots of a man snorting cocaine and Sue's referral to the drug as "a buzz" during the party scene. These cuts were waived in 2002. However all UK releases feature the US print which replaces 'stickybeak' with 'busybody' and overdubs one of the pimp's 2 uses of 'fuck' (replaced with 'screw') which were made to secure the film a US PG-13 certificate.

Summary Notes

An American reporter travels to the Australian outback to meet eccentric poacher Mick "Crocodile" Dundee and invites him to New York City, where he comes face-to-face with the complexities of modern life.
