Three Fantastic Journeys by Karel Zeman
A one-of-a-kind silver-screen illusionist, Czechoslovak filmmaker Karel Zeman devoted his career to transporting viewers to realms beyond their wildest imagining.

An iconic trilogy of J-horror films comes to Blu-ray for the first time! Tapping into the same brand of terror as the Ring and Grudge movies, visionary director Takashi Miike (Audition, Blade of the Immortal) presents a modern, high-tech twist on that mainstay of Japanese folklore, the yurei or vengeful spirit, in the form of its own iconic antihero the terrifying Mimiko.

Mom And Dad (Forbidden Fruit: Golden Exploitation Picture Volume 1)
In the 75 years since its initial release, Kroger Babb’s Mom and Dad has achieved mythical cinematic status. It was a film that, during the height of the Production Code, not only dared to address issues of venereal disease and unexpected pregnancy but presented graphic footage of bodies scarred by syphilis and multiple unobstructed views of childbirth.
Reefer Madness / Sex Madness (Forbidden Fruit: Golden Age Exploitation Picture Volume 2)
No films better represent the 1970s midnight movie phenomenon as Reefer Madness and Sex Madness: two finger-wagging camp classics that hysterically warned the public of the horrors of marijuana and syphilis.
Unashamed: A Romance / Elysia (Valley Of The Nude)(Forbidden Fruit: Golden Age Exploitation Picture Volume 3)
In an unusual reversal of the usual exploitation formula—in which scenes of sex, violence, and drug abuse were wrapped in a dire warning of moral degradation—the nudist film took a more positive approach to its subject matter.
Deadly Manor
Whilst en route to a lake, a group of youngsters make an unscheduled stop-off at a remote, seemingly abandoned mansion where they plan to spend the night. But the property is full of foreboding signs – a blood-stained car wreck in the garden, coffins in the basement, scalps in the closet, and photographs of a beautiful but mysterious woman adorning every corner of the house.
La Barraca
First time on Blu-ray produced from a new 4K restoration. This classic is recognized as one of Mexico’s Top 20 movies of all time!

The Astrologer
Writer/director James Glickenhaus made his feature debut with this bizarre tale of government skullduggery, satanic killings, zodiacal mayhem and messianic horror.
Night of Open Sex
Jess Franco wrote and directed this delirious hybrid of sexy caper comedy, EuroSpy suspense thriller, hard-boiled erotic noir, and depraved fetish shocker complete with jaw-dropping girl-on-girl violence.
Cries of Pleasure
Obscure even by hardcore Jess Franco fan standards, it remains the legendary writer/director’s most daring work of his early ’80s erotic shocker oeuvre.
Mindgames

The Hunt for Red October Collector’s Edition Steelbook (4K)
