Comedy great John Ritter stars in Problem Child, a hilarious comedy with an offbeat sense of humor. Good-natured Ben Healy (Ritter) and his social-climbing wife Flo (Amy Yasbeck) adopt seven-year-old Junior (Michael Oliver) to help brighten their lives. However, Junior soon turns an ordinary camping trip, an innocent birthday party and even a little league baseball game into full-scale comic nightmares. Thinking all his new son needs is some loving attention, Ben puts up with Junior's mishaps – but only to a point. Just as he's ready to take drastic action, Ben realizes that beneath the little monster lurks an angel craving affection in this satire on the trials of modern-day family life.

Commissioned to make a working-class family drama for public television, up-and-coming director Rainer Werner Fassbinder took the assignment and ran, dodging expectations by depicting social realities in West Germany from a critical-yet far from cynical-perspective. Over the course of several hours, the sprawling story tracks the everyday triumphs and travails of the young toolmaker Jochen (Gottfried John) and many of the people populating his world, including the woman he loves (Hanna Schygulla), his eccentric nuclear family, and his fellow workers, with whom he bands together to improve conditions on the factory floor. Rarely screened since its popular but controversial initial broadcast, Eight Hours Don't Make a Day rates as a true discovery, one of Fassbinder's earliest and most tender experiments with the possibilities of melodrama.

From cult filmmaker Curtis Harrington (Night Tide, Queen of Blood, Whoever Slew Auntie Roo?) and producers Golan-Globus (Runaway Train) comes this torrid tale of deception, desire…and double agents. Dutch goddess Sylvia Kristel (Emmanuelle Trilogy, The Nude Bomb) is the ultimate spy-vamp, Mata Hari. There has been no name more notorious, no eye more lethal, in the history of international seductresses. The daughter of a sacred dancer, Mata Hari tours the capitals of Europe with her hypnotically profane version of Java’s ritualistic choreography. It is her destiny to beguile men and women alike, in an era when the shadow of World War I endangers every liaison. When she takes as lovers two former friends, a German and a Frenchman, now enemies by the war, she becomes a pawn in their deadly cat-and-mouse intrigues. From the Folies Bergère in Paris to the sinister Fraulein Doktor’s office in Berlin to an orgiastic party in Madrid, Mata Hari weaves her spell between enemy camps and between satin sheets leaving behind her broken hearts…and lifeless bodies. The stellar cast include Oliver Tobias (The Stud, Arabian Adventure), Christopher Cazenove (Heat and Dust, Aces: Iron Eagle III), Gottfried John (Goldeneye,The Ogre) and Vernon Dobtcheff (The Day of the Jackal, Jude).
