Promotional Material THE SUPERHERO MARTIAL ARTS CLASSIC FROM WRITER / PRODUCER TSUI HARK (ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA, KNOCK OFF) NOW AVAILABLE IN A 2-DISC LIMITED EDITION
BLU-RAY! Tsui Chik (Li) is a librarian who leads a quiet, unassuming life - or, at least, that's what he wants people to believe. In truth, he was once a member of the 701 Squad, a group of elite combatants produced by a failed
super-soldier project. In kind with his former comrades, his central nervous system has been altered to render him impervious to pain. When several of his fellow test subjects resurface and embark on a crimewave under the leadership of their former
commander Hung Kuk (Patrick Lung), Tsui is forced to use his extraordinary abilities once more. Donning a costume, he sets out to face his past - as the vigilante known as the Black Mask. Adapted from the manhua by Pang Chi-ming and Li Chi-tak and
heavily influenced by Bruce Lee's turn as Kato in The Green Hornet, Black Mask is one of the most entertaining movies in Jet Li's filmography and boasts action orchestrated by Yuen Woo-ping, who would later win an Academy Award for his work on Crouching
Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Eureka Classics is proud to present the film in its rarely seen uncut version on Blu-ray from a 2K restoration! LIMITED EDITION TWO-DISC BLU-RAY SET FEATURES: Limited Edition of 2000

Promotional Material THE FIRST MOTION PICTURE BASED ON HISTORICAL FACTS ABOUT THE RISE AND REVOLT OF SLAVERY IN AMERICA! The film considered too shocking for the
world! Written, edited, produced and directed by Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi of MONDO CANE fame, this epic recreation of the American slave trade atrocities was both condemned as depraved exploitation and acclaimed as an unprecedented cry of
Black anguish and rage. The Detroit Chronicle hailed it as "a graphic, moving, nerve-paralyzing film." Legendary film critic Pauline Kael called it "the most specific and rabid incitement of the race war." It became one of the most
reviled and misunderstood films of its time. Five decades cannot diminish GOODBYE UNCLE TOM's impact or quiet its controversy as it has become even more relevant TODAY! In 1971, distributors forced the filmmakers to completely re-cut the film and
radically re-write its extreme narration, removing more than 13 minute of race-war politics and inserting alternate scenes - creating what would become an entirely different film - before it could be released. Now more than 50 years later, both versions
of GOODBYE UNCLE TOM can finally be seen in brand-new restorations, scanned in 4K 16-bit from their original negatives, with Dolby Vision HDR & newly restored DTS-HD Master Audio, and packed with over 5 hours of Extras!

Killer Nun is a 1979 Italy horror mystery thriller by Giulio Berruti
Starring Anita Ekberg, Alida Valli and Massimo Serato
The 1981 pre-cert VHS release briefly appeared on the Video Nasties List. Later released with BBFC cuts for 18 rated VHS release in 1993. Uncut and 18 rated on DVD since 2006. Uncut and MPAA Unrated in the US.
Summary Notes Legendary Swedish sex bomb Anita Ekberg stars as Sister Gertrude, a cruel nun who discovers depraved pleasure in a frenzy of drug addiction, sexual degradation and sadistic murder.
UK: Uncut and BBFC 18 rated for strong bloody violence:
Promotional Material Dubbed the sex symbol of the silver screen, Anita Ekberg , renowned for her iconic frolicking in the Trevi Fountain in Fellini's
La Dolce Vita , delivers an amazing powerhouse performance in THE KILLER NUN . In an interview exclusive to this edition, Ekberg reveals her frustration with subsequent
"bombshell" typecasting, expressing a preference for working on films like Killer Nun and boldly declaring, "This is the kind of film I like!" Originally banned as a Video Nasty
, Killer Nun is a true "Nunsploitation" great, which uniquely crosses into the Giallo genre. Presented here uncut and pristinely restored from a 2K scan of the camera negative, this release
finally does justice to the uninhibited and frenzied vision of its creator. With impressive high-style photography and vivid, deliciously surreal murders, it is superbly enhanced by the dreamy yet dystopian score of Alessandro
Alessandroni (immortalised by his twangy guitar and his legendary whistling in Sergio Leone's westerns ). The music itself is a manic masterpiece. Based on a true story, Ekberg's tour-de-force performance
portrays a nun who turns junkie and engages in robbery, possibly torture and murder of pensioners in a Church-run Elderly Care Home - all while luring young nuns with her sapphic desires! The Nun is abetted by a hunky doctor played by Andy Warhol's
superstar protégé, Joe D'Alessandro (lionised as "Little Joe" in Lou Reed's famed Walk On The Wild Side ). Special Features:
- Interview with Fellini's muse and iconic Sex-Symbol Anita Ekberg - "After La Dolce Vita"

All UK releases have been cut for animal cruelty. The film was banned as a video
nasty in 1983. There is an uncut extended version released in the US. This Extended Version was passed 18 for 2018 UK video but was still cut for animal cruelty. Summary Notes Susan
Stevenson and her brother Arthur get off a plane in Papua New Guinea, looking for her missing husband. They team up with, Dr. Edward Foster. The three head into the jungle, get in more than a few fights amongst themselves, and view lots of gratuitous
animal cruelty, notable an iguana getting eviscerated.
UK: The Extended Version was passed 18 for strong violence, gore, sex after 2:01s of BBFC compulsory cuts for:
The BBFC commented in the annual report covering 2017: Required cuts to remove sight of real animal cruelty that appeared to be orchestrated and directed for the purposes of the film (a crocodile attacking other animals

All The Colours Of The Dark, The Strange Vice of Mrs Wardh, Torso ) invites you on the trip of a lifetime to The Mountain of The Cannibal God - for tropical sun, wildlife and... flesh munching natives!
Ursula Andress (voted the Top Bond Girl of all time in Dr No - The Nurse) here stars as 'THE SLAVE OF THE CANNIBAL GOD'. The film follows her as she travels to the New Guinea jungle in search of her scientist husband
who's vanished in the untamed Green Inferno. Soon, giant spiders, killer crocodiles and deadly giant snakes bare their teeth as her expedition, led by cult-favourite Stacy Keach , journeys towards the sacred mountain of
the Cannibal God! There a flesh-eating tribe will enslave her in an eruption of frenzied orgiastic climax... Banned as a 'Video Nasty', Shameless now reinstates the original dramatic gore and the extended - and here complete - explicit scenes to
serve up this 2K-sharp restoration of this ferocious unflinching exploitation treat, to be savoured in all its blood-soaked glory! Special Features:

The Minus Man is a 1999 US crime mystery drama by Hampton Fancher
Starring Owen Wilson, Sheryl Crow and Dwight Yoakam
There are no censorship issues with this release Summary Notes Aimless Vann Siegert takes a bizarre turn in life and becomes a serial killer, tracking down the miserable,
the self-destructive and those who otherwise seem willing to die.
US: Uncut and MPAA R rated for:
Promotional Material When quiet, aimless and amiable Vann Siegert--a haunting Owen Wilson (Wedding Crashers)--drifts into town, no one suspects the evil that lies beneath the surface. Despite his easy
charm, he is merely a reflection of what those who encounter him want him to be. The more Vann tries to make a go of his new life, the stronger the mysterious forces are that pull him in a darker direction. When locals start to disappear, it becomes
clear that an eerie subtraction is at work among the lost and lonely of this sleepy, seaside hamlet. People look toward Vann, but no one can quite put their finger on who he really is. Through it all, he carries on a surreal dialogue with imaginary
detectives who question his crimes and motives. Written and directed by Hampton Fancher (Blade Runner, Blade Runner 2049) from the acclaimed novel by Lew McCreary, this unsettling and offbeat psychological thriller gazes unflinchingly into the mind of a
serial killer. With Janeane Garofalo (Clay Pigeons), Brian Cox (Manhunter), Mercedes Ruehl (Married to the Mob), Dennis Haysbert (Far from Heaven) and music icons Dwight Yoakam (Sling Blade) and Sheryl Crow. Special

Promotional Material This sensual and striking chronicle of a disappearance and its aftermath put director Peter Weir on the map and helped usher in a new era of Australian cinema. Based on an acclaimed
1967 novel by Joan Lindsay, Picnic at Hanging Rock is set at the turn of the twentieth century and concerns a small group of students from an all-female college who vanish, along with a chaperone, while on a St.
Valentine's Day outing. Less a mystery than a journey into the mystic, as well as an inquiry into issues of class and sexual repression in Australian society, Weir's gorgeous, disquieting film is a work of poetic horror whose secrets haunt viewers to
this day.

them into walking, talking and killing Seedpeople! Can Comet Valley's resourceful residents fight off the alien invaders, or is the planet doomed to become a savage garden of alien evil? Directed by Full Moon veteran Peter Manoogian (ELIMINATORS,
DEMONIC TOYS and THE DUNGEONMASTER) and co-starring Andrea Roth (ROBOCOP: THE SERIES, THE COLLECTOR, 13 REASONS WHY), SEEDPEOPLE takes its cues from the classic 1956 chiller INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS and cross-pollinates it with the sort of evil
critter creature feature that producer Charles Band is known for. The result is a lean, mean and ferociously fun dark fantasy epic, presented here for the first time in stunning HD, remastered from the original negative.

Deep In The Heart: Handgun is a 1983 UK action drama by Tony
Garnett.
Starring Karen Young and Clayton Day and Suzie Humphreys.
There are no censorship issues with this release Summary Notes Shortly after moving to
Dallas, a young woman is raped at gunpoint. Her intense anger drives her to seek revenge, and she becomes a hunter on a vengeance mission.
US: Uncut and MPAA R rated for:
Promotional Material SHE SAID NO... AND SHE MEANT IT! Kathleen Sullivan has been raped at gunpoint. Now she plans her revenge! Having left Boston to start a new
job in Dallas, Kathleen Sullivan soon makes friends and begins to enjoy her new life. Larry Keeler is immediately attracted to Kathleen, but Kathleen makes it clear she would rather have a friend than a boyfriend. At the end of one date, Kathleen gives
Larry a peck on the cheek and dashes into her apartment, leaving Larry confused and angry. On the next date, however, Larry is determined to get what he wants--at gunpoint. The tables start to turn when Kathleen joins a local gun club and buys her own
gun. Now she becomes the hunter--on a vengeful mission. Producer, writer and director Tony Garnett (Prostitute) was fascinated and troubled by the proliferation and celebration of firearms in the United States. So, he traveled from his native
England to Texas to make a dramatic film that would explore the widespread availability of guns there and the accompanying potential for deadly violence. The result was the hard-hitting Deep in the Heart, the film that boldly examines issues that
continue to torment American society over forty years later.

Frankie is actually channeling an extraordinary and provocative message that could destroy the Church, he's convinced that she -- and the force possessing her -- must be forever silenced. Determined to stop this deadly conspiracy, Kiernan risks his faith
-- and his life -- to save her and the message that will change the destiny of mankind forever.

Starring Ursula Andress, Duilio Del Prete and Mario Pisu
Never cut by the BBFC but has been released in a long and shortened versions. In the UK, there are at least two versions around: 'Secrets of a Sensuous Nurse' runs 73 min 4 sec, 'I Will If You Will' is 86 min 34 sec. long.
Summary Notes As an aging widower begins suffering from cardiac trouble, his greedy heirs hire a super-seductive nurse in the hopes of inducing a heart attack, but the plan backfires when she
falls in love with him.
UK: Uncut and BBFC 18 rated:
Promotional Material From the producers of 'Doctor Zhivago' comes a film that finally reveals URSULA ANDRESS in all her glory! Voted the TOP BOND GIRL of all time, Ursula Andress made cinematic
history when she emerged from the sea in that bikini. Not only was this iconic scene crowned "No1 of the 100 Greatest Sexy Screen-Moments" and earned Andress a Golden Globe, but it heralded a new generation of women who wanted and
expected more: the 'sexual revolution' had started. Ever wondered what she looks like without that bikini? Well, wonder no more and reach for The Nurse! Andress stars as The Sensuous Nurse, spending most of this romp-com undressed. Screen
legend Jack Palance (City Slickers) plays an American tycoon aiming to buy a vineyard in the beautiful Italian Veneto. But the hitch is that the aging owner won't sign, despite his madcap family's eagerness to sell and get rich. The old
man, recovering from a bonk-induced heart attack, is a randy lecher. So, the family's outrageous stratagem is to hire Nurse Andress, not to cure the old boy, but for her to... ahem... undress and, hopefully, induce another - this time fatal -
cardiac arrest. It's all barmy, fizzy fun, and the clincher? A SECOND Bond Girl! Luciana Paluzzi, the one in skin-tight black leathers on the rocket launching motorbike in 'Thunderball'. Here without leathers. Or anything.
