Sinister Cinema

Eddie Arent, Joachim Fuchsberger. Though thought by Scotland Yard to be dead, the mad murderer known as "The Wizard", is alive, well, and spreading new terror throughout London. 16mm.

John Warwick, Jenny Laird, Paul Neville, Ivan Wilmot. This is a great B British crime film. A British agent, carrying important papers, is knifed to death on a passenger train. Before his murder, he plants to papers in the trunk of a female passenger. Who will reach her first, the police or the killers? A taut, well-staged climax helps make this forgotten crime film a must-see. From 16mm.

Arline Sax, John Hoyt, Robert Kelljan, King Moody, Elisha Cook, Jr. Wow! A really weird psychological horror film. Hoyt and Kelljan play detectives investigating Sax for the strange slaying of a local businessman. Moody is the twisted artist who knows more than he's telling. Cook is the mysterious man with the cane who haunts Sax's bizarre delusions. This film, while cheap and crude in places, features some wonderful delusional sequences with Sax, who looks and acts much like Candace Hilligoss...

Robert Clayton, Doris Burnell, Alan Barbour, Barney Noto, William K. Everson. Made by a group of the world's most prestigious serial fans, this 4-chapter silent mini-serial is an amazingly well done b/w tribute to the movie serials of the '30s and '40s. The sinister "Master Duper," abducts negatives to silent film classics and duplicates them for himself using his "Instant Transmission Printer," which duplicates film in seconds! An agent for the Association of Film Distributors--who is...

Christopher Lee, Betta St. John, Alexander Knox. A must-see for all Chris Lee fans. He plays a man, tormented by murderous dreams, who eventually becomes a Jekyll and Hyde type. Very rare and very unusual. The ending really packs a punch. From 35mm.

George Nader, Heinz Weiss, Sylvia Pascal, Helga Schlack. The first Jerry Cotton movie is a good one. Jerry's after crooks who pose as a musical band. He infiltrates the gang, cozying up to their gun moll boss and trying to find out what she knows. What's in their violin cases? Great opening titles. Cool movie. B&W, scope, 35mm.

Tony Kendall, Brad Harris, Olga Schoberova, Christa Linder. One of Tony and Brad's best with the boys on the hunt for a treasure of missing LSD that has been stolen by a criminal organization. Their quest eventually leads the boys to far-off desert oil ruins where much of the film's best action occurs. The scene where Tony hides in a bathtub with a totally naked gorgeous gal is playfully erotic. Watch from some terrific Motorcycle chases. Great location shooting in Istanbul. Considered by many...

Annik Borel, Howard Ross, Dagmar Lassander. A beautiful babe has dreams of becoming a werewolf. Soon after, she begins having sex with different guys before she rips them to shreds. What is the secret of her familys past? Rated R for nudity and violence. Aka Werewolf Woman. Color, scope, 35mm.

Mitchell Kowal, Wim Hollard, Lili Dawn, Vicki Carlson. In what has to be one of the campiest exploitation films ever made, the police are baffled by a series of hair-fetish murders in which the killer slays his victims and then gives them a haircut. A psychopathologist is brought in to give the police advice much like in GLEN OR GLENDA

Eddie Constantine, Nelly Benedetti, Daniel Ceccaldi. One of Eddie's better films. He plays a secret agent searching for a missing NATO weapons scientist who has invented a ring that emits a paralysis ray. Very James Bondish, and good fun. From 16mm.

Brad Harris, Gloria Milland, Fernando Rey, Barbara Carroll. Goliath is headed toward home to take the place of his dead king. The kingdoms regent wants him dead! He faces assassins, Amazons, a killer gorilla, sea monsters, gladiators, giants, and cavemen. Great fun! Great color, scope, 16mm.

Fabio Testi, Ivan Desny Christine Kaufmann, Jack Taylor. The third of Dallamano's trilogy of “schoolgirls in peril” is a good one. A teenage girl's mutilated body is found. Testi investigates. Suspected are three girls who have their own secret society. Very creepy in spots. Rated R for violence and full nudity. Great color, 16mm.
