A lush retelling of the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, Excalibur is a dark and engrossing tale. Director John Boorman (Deliverance) masterfully handles the tale of the mythical sword Excalibur, and its passing from the wizard Merlin to the future king of England. Arthur pulls the famed sword from a stone and is destined to be crowned king. As the king embarks on a passionate love affair with Guenevere, an illegitimate son, and Merlin's designs on power, threaten Arthur's reign. The film is visually stunning and unflinching in its scenes of combat and black magic. Featuring an impressive supporting cast, including early work from the likes of Liam Neeson and Gabriel Byrne, Excalibur is an adaptation of the legend both faithful and bold. --Robert Lane

When two pretty hitch-hikers are hired for a modelling assignment at a creepy English manor house, all is not what it seems – a witches’ coven is in residence, populated by nude swingers, frustrated lesbians and a boiling cauldron of kinky sex! Directed by prolific filmmaker Ray Austin (The Avengers and Space 1999), Virgin Witch is a psychedelic mix of naked girls and bloodcurdling horror. This naughty British sex-thriller stars real-life sisters Vicki Michelle (from BBC sitcom ‘Allo ‘Allo) and Ann Michelle (Pyschomania), with show-stopping support from Patricia Haines (Michael Caine’s first wife) and ‘X’-rated smoothie Neil Hallett (Keep It Up Downstairs).

The title says it all--the abominable Dr Phibes Rises Again and he's as ruthless as ever. No longer content with merely avenging his wife's death, Phibes is now bent on her resurrection. With his mute assistant, Vulnavia, he sets off for Egypt, meting out bizarrely elaborate deaths--everything from clockwork snakes to a particularly severe exfoliation treatment--to all who stand in his way. This time Phibes has two competitors to race against: the trusty Inspector Trout and the renowned archaeologist Biederbeck, who has his own reasons for chasing Phibes. Like its predecessor, Dr Phibes Rises Again adds dark wit and imaginative art direction to the mix. Vincent Price is once again in high form, playing his organ with swooping arms and adding dry comic touches with a delicately cocked eyebrow. Watch out for cameos from a host of familiar faces, including Peter Cushing, Terry Thomas and Beryl Reid. --Ali Davis
