IT WILL TAKE YOU FURTHER THAN FEAR. Of all the many slice-and-dice films that emerged in the early 80s, few remain as gruesomely effective as The Burning the notorious video nasty now finally unleashed on Blu-ray! When an ill-advised prank misfires, summer camp caretaker Cropsy is committed to hospital with hideous burns. Released after five years, hospital officials warn him not to blame the young campers who caused his disfigurement. But no sooner is Cropsy back on the streets than he's headed back to camp with a rusty pair of shears in hand, determined to exact his bloody revenge. With standout gore effects courtesy of FX legend Tom Savini, The Burning proved too shocking for UK censors upon its original video release. Now, fully uncut and in High Definition, The Burning is ready to reclaim its place as the ultimate summer camp nightmare.

A well-oiled Jean-Claude Van Damme makes his starring debut in what may be one of the few kickboxing films to be based on a true story. The Muscles from Brussels plays Frank Dux, the first Westerner ever to win the extreme "whupfest" known as the Kumatai (a long-running, no-holds-barred fighting tournament in Hong Kong). While a bit deficient in the script department (to say the least), this undeniably exciting flick succeeds by letting Van Damme play to his strengths: namely, minimal acting and a lot of impossibly acrobatic splits while kicking people in the head. Bloodsport is a guilty-pleasure testosterone blast of the highest order, with a memorable villain (the massive Bolo Yeung from Enter the Dragon) and a multitude of well-choreographed fight scenes. An embarrassed-looking Forest Whitaker cameos as a hapless (and non-kickboxing) cop. --Andrew Wright
The scenario of this notorious splatter movie may be familiar- a group of teenage-counsellors at a lakeside summer camp face the vengeance of a twisted psychotic - but the nail-biting tension and graphic gore sequences of this bloody shocker will certainly not be. Described as 'a searing pulse-pounding bolt of energy sure to shock even the most hardened gore-addict' The Burning not only boasts the directorial talents of Tony Maylam - Director of The Recent SF/ Horror smash hit 'Spilt Second' - but also special effects by the genius of gore Tom Savini music by Rick Wakeman and a special appearance by 'Raising Arizona' star Holly Hunter. Long considered one of the goriest of horror films. The Burning the subject of numerous prosecutions has been unavailable since 1983. It is seemed to be an extremely frightening and nerve jolting movie.
