After the success of THE BOOGEYMAN (1980) - a slasher classic that carved its way to box office riches and video nasty notoriety - director Ulli Lommel was all too happy to reunite with starlet Suzanna Love for another bout of blood thirsty brutality... and the result is 1983 s PROZZIE, also know as OLIVIA and Double Jeopardy. Regardless of the moniker, this superb slice and dice sickie is one of the most underrated knife-play pot boilers ever imagined... with Love portraying a femme fatale that has a damaged background and a wonderfully skillful way with sharp utensils. Let s put it this way: you may well want her to undress... but the chances are that it is her who will be doing the penetrating! Whilst THE BOOGEYMAN might be Lommel s most famous freak-show, PROZZIE is his most outrageous orgy of sex and violence and only 88 Films, the label that seeks out forgotten splatter flicks and restores them in awesome HD, could have understood the need for a new generation to see this crimson-caked gem in all of its hi-def delirium!!! See PROZZIE and admire a timeless mix of curves and carnage!

Based on over 70 incidents that took place in the USA Compliance recounts this chilling true story in which the line between obedience and manipulation is hauntingly blurred. On a particularly busy day at a Ohio fast food joint high-strung manager Sandra (Ann Dowd - Garden State) receives a phone call from a police officer informing her that an employee a pretty young blonde named Becky (Dreama Walker of Gossip Girl and The Good Wife) has stolen money from a customer. Convinced she's only doing what's right Sandra commences the investigation following instructions from the officer at the other end of the line no matter how invasive they become. As we watch we ask ourselves two questions: Why don't they just say no? and the more troubling Am I certain I wouldn't do the same? The cast delivers startlingly authentic performances that make the appalling events unfolding onscreen all the more difficult to watch - but impossible to turn away from.

A performance of the Beethoven's Fidelio. James Levine conducts the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and Chorus.
A very funny romantic comedy about one witty but plus-sized gay boy's attempt to find love in a world filled with superficial hunks. In a cinematic gay film world seemingly populated solely by gorgeous buff gay boys is there any room for a romantic comedy starring a short plump young man? Yes! Jonathan Lisecki (Gayby) stars as Bob a lovelorn portly wise-cracking party planner who is in desperate need of finding Mr. Right. He may just have found that love of his life in the person of Andy (Nicholas Brendon) a sweet muscular chef. But with his catty friends commenting from the side-lines his overbearing actress mom (the scene-stealing Ann Walker) interfering and his own doubts jealousies and fears undermining things is there any chance for this affair to succeed? At times hilarious as it offers a sharp rebuke to the superficiality of gay men's body obsession this fast-paced tale is a refreshingly original story of an odd duck finding love in a pond of swans.

Clint Eastwood's second film as a director (and his first Western) is a variation on the "man with no name" theme, starring Eastwood as the drifter known only as "the Stranger". He rides into the desert town of Lagos and is quickly attacked by three gunmen. Recovering with the aid of a local dwarf (a memorable role for Billy Curtis), the Stranger is hired by the intimidated townsfolk to fend off a band of violent ex-convicts. After teaching the citizens self-defence and instructing them to paint the entire town red and rename it "Hell", the Stranger vanishes. He reappears when the marauding criminals arrive, and delivers justice and teaches the townsfolk a harsh lesson about moral obligation. Is he a figure from their past or a kind of supernatural avenger? Combining humour with action, High Plains Drifter is both a serious and tongue-in-cheek tribute to the Westerns that made Eastwood a household name. --Jeff Shannon, Amazon.com
