Happy Boxing Day - hope everyone got what they wanted from Satan, er Santa.  For the last new title of the year we have an extremely rare flick that you can barely even find on the IMDB.  It is another excellent print from Japan, so maybe a few of you out there will enjoy this rarity........




THE LION'S SHARE (1984)
     
     An Italian cop is suspended from the force when traumatic feelings begin to hamper his work.  He  returns to his home town of Sun City, South Africa once he realizes that his trauma stems from when he was child and witnessed his father being attacked and eaten by lions.

Still haunted by memories of the mysterious death, he begins an investigation to get some answers once and for all. His former partner soon shows up to help him out and together they try and figure out who exactly was responsible for letting the lions have a human dinner.


This super rare German/Italian/South African co-production combines elements of giallo, thriller and cop revenge to create a very entertaining ride that will have you guessing.  Shot on location in South Africa, its truly unique backdrop also makes the film visually stand out from your average cop thriller.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of maggot filled orifices danced in their heads........

Christmas is just around the corner and what better way to ring in the holiday season than with one of the most outstanding examples of the Asian gross-out gore horror.  We tracked down an amazing WIDESCREEN and UNCUT print from Japan that is the definitive version of this flick and it a must for fans of all things disgusting.....




THE DEVIL (1981)  

     A drifter moves into a family run hotel and falls for their daughter during his stay.  After some nifty matchmaking by the bellboy Ding Dong, a marriage is arranged despite the suspicions speed of the romance. 

     Happiness doesn't last long though as the new husband is really a conman out to destroy the family for his own financial benefit. The sighting of a dead girl suggests the conman has a past connected to murder.  When there is a death at the hotel, the old aunt delves into her black magic spells to seek revenge.

RESCUE TEAM (DVD) Filipino jungle exploitation action with Richard Harrison

This one is super rare - we've been holding onto it for quite sometime since there wasn't even a consensus on its actual existence on the Internet Movie Database until recently. Finally, we a very happy top add another addition to the jungle action flicks that came out of the Philippines in the early '80s - and of course, bonus for starring Richard Harrison.......... 



RESCUE TEAM (1983)
     

     A top CIA agent is offered a hundred thousand dollars to save a Vietnam POW. The agency's computer picks out the best men to help out on the mission and soon the merry pose of tough guys head to Thailand.


     Pretending to be  a group of archaeologists, the lethal killing squad decide to party upon arrival and soon get hammered on booze as they hit up the Thai strip clubs.  The next day they must head out on their suicide mission and only the strong will survive, but that just might be the guy with the strongest liver.


     Richard Harrison stars as the top CIA agent in this very rare Filipino jungle action flick. Bloody violence, a jungle full of bamboo death traps and some double crossing keeps things more than interesting and a definite must for fan of Filipino exploitation action.
