Looks dope but I HATE when a movie taking place in country X has people speaking English with X-specific accents. It makes no sense.

I contributed to their indiegogo campaign to start a US branch. I get their first 10 releases automatically.
I'm excited about all those releases except for Contamination. I really hope they continue to release the older japanese cult stuff, those yakuza films sound amazing.

I feel like those 2 Mitchell movies have been slated for release for ages now. Always wanted to see Massacre Mafia style. I've seen a screening of Gone With The Pope, it was kinda weird, slower and surprisingly more meditative than I expected.

don't rmemeber if we ever mentioned this one before



Looks like a pastiche of old highbrow French noirs with later trashy eurocrime, rinsed through Scorsese's style. I love all these things so I'm with it.

So this might be a good thread on its own, but I've been watching a lot of random stuff through youtube. Either rips of obscure stuff i"ve been trying to find for ages, or just legit streaming via wernervod channel and such.

I know some of you guys have been doing this for a while, anybody got any good channels or playlists marked?

Twitch is pimping a new creature feature about mutant killer wasps, looks pretty competent and sticks to the good old 'goofy amiable slacker has to beat the creatures and win the girl' formula, could be good

Never seen them but I want to. On another note, Wild East just put out another Castellari spaghetti. Anyone seen?

Copped the Bronx Warriors set which was released by Shameless a few years back:

Enjoyed Escape from the Bronx, largely because of Henry Silva and the film's hero walked like a duck. Really weren't feeling the other films, though.

That is a seriously awesome line-up.
Just realized that I am going to be in NYC the 26th to 29th. I could possibly make the Footprints on the Moon showing!
How hard is it to get there from Brooklyn?

Haven't booked my hotel yet but I'm doing some training at the Brooklyn Navy Yard during the days. So I'll probably try to find a place as close to there as possible.

Shouldn't be that bad, that area doesn't have that many trains but you'll be right on the water across from Manhattan at least. Let me know where you book i'll tell you what's what.

Word. I see they don't do any presales. What are my chances of being able to walk up and buy tickets less than an hour before it starts?

Very good, I routinely do it 5 mins past advertised show time as i'm joggin in from the train. FYI they only take cash.

It's a very nerdy niche oriented theater but the main room is surprisingly large, so since they don't really draw big crowds aside from big event screenings, they very rarely sell out completely. I'd be surprised if the theater is more than 2/3 full for a lot of these

Exciting new films on DVD



Awesome-looking Italian mobfilm



Psycho-sexual thriller by Fabrice Du Welz

This has hit the web but is in theaters in the US now I think



Bearfilm I have been looking forward to.

Catching these if I'm around for the CPH filmfestival



Think this German horror will be the real deal



New horrorfilm from Miike



New warfilm from Tsukamoto

+ It follows - gonna wait for Duke of Burgundy eventhough I want to see the PM of 'Borgen' naked on the big screen
Whether to Jason of Philaflava or John Podesta, I will speak my fucking perspective openly

Really happy to see BU putting out a new title for once instead of just an HD upgrade from their catalog.
Anyone seen this before?
