ABDUCTED-Obscure and well-made 1986 Canadian film, starring Dan Haggerty as a mountain man trying to control his mentally disturbed and psychotic son after he kidnaps and threatens to rape and enslave a young woman jogging in the mountains. Some beatings, foul language, shootings, etc. Not bad! Uncut, in Engl., good qual.

 

ANGEL OF DEATH :1986 Dir. Frank Drew White. (Andrea Bianchi). Howard Vernon is Dr. Josef Megele (yes, Hitler's Mengele) who has concocted a plan to make kidnapped women mate with Chimpanzees and develop a super race. (!?!?) If he's had any success they are never on screen. Even the monkey seems embarassed to be in this hysterically funny mess... Chris Mitchum breaks into Mengele's camp with a bunch of weapons specialists, super spies and circus tumblers, including a pretzel man who is injured and benched before showing off any stunts. Also with Fernando Rey, Jack Taylor & Robert Foster. A pathetically conceived giggle fest. Quality good/very good.

 

AVENGER X-1968 Dir. Piero Vivarelli.  If you like the classic crime/caper stuff like Danger Diabolik, this one is for you. Fast moving and complicated- maybe a sequel... Not sure but it is a lot of fun. Recommended! In English. Very Good quality.

DIRTY HEROES   (1967) Dir. Alberto DeMartino.  Daniela Bianchi and John Ireland as Captain O'Connor. Holland. Spring 1945. Two armies face each other in the final confrontation of World War II. On the one hand are the powerful forces of the Allies, on the other, all that remains of the Third Reich. The scene is set for the Battle of the Ardennes.

DOBERMANN -(1997) Dir Jan Kounen.   The charismatic criminal Dobermann, who got his first gun when he was baptized as an infant, leads a gang of thieves. After a complex and brutal bank robbery, they are hunted by the Paris police. From the director of Vibroboy, “Dobermann” features some of the most amazing photography since the dizzying experimental days of Sam Raimi.  It is wall to wall hyperactive, cartoon like violence, including an absolutely explosive John Woo like shootout inside a heavily populated trannie rave club climaxing in a stunt explosion unlike anything I have ever witnessed elsewhere. You’ll want to jump up and applaud at the sheer lunacy of this film and undeniable brilliance with which it is delivered.  Please note we will trade with anyone who has a good quality unwatermarked and English subtitled version of this movie. If you do, get in touch. Currently in French, no subtitles in okay quality.

At one point the gang tie up an entire family in a farm house and sexually humiliate them. Bordering on horror at times because of it's cruel "Last House on the Left" sort of attitude, this one is a must for all Italian shock fans, not just horror.

FEAR CITY (BORDER-RIPPER)-VERY RARE UNCUT print of the 1984 Abel Ferrara sleaze-action-slasher film, which has some more brief shots of violence in the psycho-killer's attack scenes tht are not in ANY of the other video or DVD releases here and elsewhere!  The scene where the black female stripper is brutally slashed across the forehead down on the subway tracks is definitely a few secs. longer and BLOODIER in this print! Engl., o.k.-good qual. 

FENOMENAL AND THE TREASURE OF TUTANKAMAN:  1967 Dir. Ruggero Deodato.  A masked superhero (Diabolik type) seeks a magical artifact, and tries to keep bad guys from plundering an ancient tomb.  A fun caper film that's a must for fans of the like, and collector's of Deodato's work.  With Lucretia Love.

Of course, this man also wants his wife dead. The two make a pact to bump off one-another’s wives. This one is more unintentionally funny (one of the guys was raped by two male wrestlers!!) and there’s also a special cameo by the HOT American porn starlett Mai Lin! In English. Ok-good quality and is quite obscure.

FRANCO NERO'S FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE: (Specify Nero to avoid confusion with another film called Fight For Your Life).  A sort of comic adventure.  Nero's sailboat is smashed to bits by a gigantic corporate transport ship.  When Nero has no luck seeking restitution from the company responsible for wrecking his vessel, he storms the company's headquarters and there unwittingly befriends a small boy who, as it turns out, is the CEO by means of inheritance.  As the story developes, Nero discovers a plot to kill the kid and becomes his personal bodyguard.  In English in Good/Very Good quality.

HOSPITAL, THE WHITE MAFIA: -1973 Dir. Luigi Zampa.  With Senta Berger. A very political drama about the Italian medical system, where being a doctor of medicine is a step towards becoming a professor of medicine, and a professor of medicine is so well regarded that they run the system as “barons”. It’s all about fame and money, not about helping people at all.  People may die unnoticed on the operating table, because it's the physicians wish in this unusual crime drama. Also, at the time this was made, apparently Italy did not have laws to  prevent refusal of service to those who need medical help and had no money… In English, in okay/good quality from our Venezuelan factory pre-record 

I AM THE LAW- Rare1977 Itln. crime-drama, about a ruthless law enforcer who'll stop at nothing to destroy and dismantle the Cosa Nostra operating in Sicily. Shootings, fights, some nudity. Uncut, in Engl., good qual.

INDIO: – Dir. Antonio Margheriti. A fun actioner from Margheriti in which an educated military man who was originally part of a South American Indio tribe rescues his people from technology advanced whites of the modern world, Rambo style. Overall very good but there’s a line crease about ¼ way from top of the screen during part of the movie so only good. In English.

 

IRON HAND OF THE MAFIA-MEGA-RARE 1980 Itln. mafia-action, starring Gordon Mitchell as a deadly crime boss in the old country! One victim is buried alive in cement! Shootings, beatings, explosions, etc. Uncut, in Itln. w/NO engl. subts., o.k. pic qual. 

JUNGLE RAIDERS:(1985) Directed by Antonio Margheriti  This is probably one of his best Raiders of the Lost Ark rip-offs.

English in very good quality!

KILLER VS.

Uncut, Itln. w/Engl. subts, very good qual. Dir. by Fernando Di Leo! 

*THE LAST HUNTER-Bloody and fast-paced war film starring David Warbeck as a tough-ass officer who is sent out to destroy a Vietcong radio transmitter. Sounds simple huh?

Also stars Tisa Farrow with a special appearance by John Steiner. UNCUT import print and is in English! Good picture quality. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Lots of beatings, stabbings, shootings, etc..Stars Erica Blanc among others. In English. Good quality.

 

MAFIA-VERY VERY RARE and OBSCURE European crime film about a Mafia hitman who bumps off his target and is caught by a local man. The Mafia later kill this guy as well and the police are on the case to figure out how to catch those responsible for the reign of terror. Has some interesting moments and action going for it as well and so makes a good addition to the crime genre! This film has the appearance that it was transferred directly from film onto video so you know how rare this one is! Good picture quality overall but has that "film/theatre" look (and feel!) to it. In English.

THE MAN WHO WOULDN'T DIE-Cool unreleased Lamberto Bava crime thriller about a gang of thieves who break into a mansion and steal the art. While there, one of the guys decides to have some fun and rapes the maid, but is bashed in the head! The gang decide to dump him, thinking he will die anyway. But he doesn’t! His body is found and he’s taken to a local hospital where he starts planning his bloody revenge! This is yet another good European film that should not be missed by any true fan. In English and in ok-good quality. Recommended!

When the pimp's wife and daughter are murdered in the course of the "manhunt", he swears revenge on everyone who had anything to do with it. Good quality in English.

MARK OF THE SCORPION - 1982 Dir. Massimo Pirri, great synth score by Luigi Ceccarelli. Another fun spaghetti “Raiders of the Lost Ark” inspired adventure quickie.  Andy J. Forrest is pretty good as an all-american treasure hunter out to find a mysterious lost tomb of Cleopatra out in the Sahara desert. He gets captured by some Foreign Legion type soldiers who force him to seek the treasure for them. Forrest teams up with Danilo Mattei (“Cannibal Ferox”) to break out of prison, dig up artifacts, and then return to the prison and give their finds to the Warden. Yeah- it’s that ridiculous. But professionally photographed and nicely paced. Good quality- would rate higher save for a few glitches… In English.

 

THE MONACLE-1962.  This is a great little French spy film about British and Soviet spies after a German commando who has hidden a lot of gold in an undersea cave. There's a little damage to the opening titles.  Otherwise in English in good quality. Black & white...

 

MYSTERE under the title DAGGER EYES -Hard to find European thriller directed by Carlo Vanzina about a photographer who catches an assassin on film. He makes a deal with the mastermind behind the hit but has the film stolen by a high-class prostitute. The prostitute is then killed and her friend, also a high-class whore but who looks great, is next! Stars John Steiner and Gabriele Tinti. Good quality.

OCCUPATIONAL KILLER (POLICIA DE NARCOTICOS)-ENGL.-DUBBED!!- Here is a MEGA-RARE good qual. print in ENGLISH of this SUPER-VIOLENT 1985 Mexican crime-action-sleaze flick starring Valentin Trujillo.

UNCUT version! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! 

 

ONE ON TOP OF THE OTHER:1969 Dir. Lucio Fulci.  Likely one of Fulci's most overlooked English language films, it's a pity because it is also one of his most intelligent and glamorous works.  A thriller of sorts with a touch of erotica, the story is about an insurance scam in which a man's wife fakes her own murder so that she can collect the money and put her husband on death row.  Scenes were actually filmed in a real prison's gas chamber with the actors. The photography is very stylized, the script is strong. LBX in English. Good quality.

OPERATION INCHON-Rare 80's war-action film by prod. Joseph Lai  from Asia, about the war between Korea and Japan. Some good battle scenes, bloody bayonet stabbings, impalings, fights, some nudity, etc. Fun stuff! Uncut, in Engl., good qual.

OPERAZIONE SAN PIETRO-1967 Dir. Lucio Fulci. Lando Buzzanca and Edward G. Robinson (who missed doing "Planet of the Apes" while doing this) star in a caper comedy about small time gangsters who try to steal an important statue.
