    Despite his best efforts, shy and modest bank clerk Thomas (Dinos Iliopoulos) struggles to fit in with the pace of modern life. On New Year's Eve, a comedy of errors ensues and Thomas is mistaken for ˜The Ogre', a notorious criminal mastermind who rules the streets of Athens. Suddenly, men respect him and a woman is interested in him - it's all he's ever wanted. However, everything comes with a price and Thomas is soon out of his depth when his unwitting white lie unravels. Rich with physical comedy and sharp social commentary, this satirical crime drama from director Nikos Koundouros (Young Aphrodites) was a commercial disaster on release and is now considered to be a true classic of modern Greek cinema.BLU-RAY LIMITED EDITION SPECIAL FEATURESHigh-Definition digital transferUncompressed mono PCM audioNew introduction from Jonathan Franzen (2025)New interview with critic Christina Newland (2025)New interview with Greek film expert Dimitris Papanikolaou (2025)Newly improved English subtitle translationReversible sleeve featuring designs based on original postersLimited edition booklet featuring new writing by Andréas Giannopoulos and an extract from Jonathan Franzen's FreedomLimited edition of 2500 copies, presented in full-height Scanavo packaging with removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings

Coming back from Europe Bloom's son Taylor teams up with his father's assistant Russell (Ron Asheton) and realising that the only thing that can stop the Zombie killers is more of the same they create their own version to bring down Vansemie's Legion of the Dead.
