In the mid-'20s, British author A.A. Milne (Domhnall Gleason)-still troubled by the traumas of his WWI service-found solace in his relationship with his young son Christopher Robin (Will Tilston), and inspiration from the boy's beloved stuffed menagerie. By the time a decade passed, however, the phenomenal success of Winnie-the-Pooh would find the father frustratingly pigeonholed in his aspirations, and his teenager (Alex Lawther) bitterly resentful of his literary counterpart. Telling, effective biodrama co-stars Margot Robbie, Kelly Macdonald. 107 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.

DARKNESS HAS FOUND A NEW BRIDE. HEAVEN HELP US. The third feature by director Michele Soavi - his second collaboration with producer/co-writer Dario Argento - has been called "deranged" (We Are Cult), "disturbing" (Blu-ray.com) and "long overdue for reevaluation" (Bloody Disgusting). Now it can be experienced like never before: As a global satanic cabal grows in ferocity, an unwitting young schoolteacher (Kelly Curtis - sister of Jamie Lee - in her sole genre role) is chosen to deliver the ultimate evil. Herbert Lom (COUNT DRACULA), Mariangela Giordano (BURIAL GROUND) and Giovanni Lombardo Radice (THE HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK) co-star in "a nightmarish fever dream from a visionary filmmaker" (Good Efficient Butchery), scanned in 4K from the original negative with over 3 hours of Special Features - including new interviews with Soavi and Argento - for the first time ever.

Product Description There s fear around every corner with a diabolical sect on the loose! Kelly Lee Curtis (sister of Jamie Lee) stars as Miriam, an American schoolteacher relocated to Germany in an area plagued by a satanic cult that murders and tears out the hearts of anyone who betrays it. One afternoon Miriam accidentally hits an elderly pedestrian, Moebius (Herbert Lom, The Pink Panther, The Dead Zone), standing in the middle of the road; alarmed, she takes him back to her house to recuperate, only for him to secretly drug her and then secrete a hallucinogenic insect in her nostril. Clearly targeting Miriam for a sinister plan, Moebius triggers an uncanny string of events in Miriam s life involving nightmares, a diabolical cult leader, Damon (The Church's Tomas Arana), her magic pet rabbit, and a dark well filled with mystical water. Directed by Michele Soavi (The Church, Stagefright) and produced by maestro Dario Argento (Suspiria, Opera), this hallucinatory shocker now merges from the darkness with a new HD transfer! Review Visual brilliance...a wonderful, surreal plot that is as deeply engaging as nightmarish. --Classic-Horror.com

*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!* Like an analog Frederick Wiseman, legendary cinéma vérité documentarian Larry Wessel (Ultramegalopolis, Taurobolium, Eric & Shaye) has tackled a wide array of eccentric subjects and captured some of underground cinema’s most striking and unforgettable visuals, equipped solely with his camcorder and a nearly non-existent budget. An aesthetic terrorist of the highest order, Wessel’s simplistic, fly on the wall approach to documentary filmmaking has allowed his subjects to reveal their stories and actions in the most candid and uninhibited means conceivable. In SEX, DEATH & THE HOLLYWOOD MYSTIQUE, Wessel turns his camcorder lens on the seedy and salacious underbelly of '90s Hollywood by profiling the lives and confessions of several enthralling Tinseltown luminaries. Notorious L.A. novelist and true crime scribe John Gilmore (author of Severed, The Garbage People) shares intimate and lurid details about the Manson Family murders, the “Black Dahlia” Elizabeth Short, the “Pied Piper of Tucson” killer Charles Schmid, and his early friendship with a young James Dean. Legendary filmmaker Curtis Harrington (Night Tide, Whoever Slew Auntie Roo, Queen of Blood) recalls his personal interactions with classic silver screen legends Gloria Swanson and Marlene Dietrich. Famous Monsters of Filmland publisher Forrest J. Ackerman gives a memorabilia tour of his jaw-dropping “Ackermansion” and recounts setting Metropolis director Fritz Lang up on a blind date. Most poignantly, Wessel cross cuts all these anecdotes with a day in the life of sex worker Kelly Monroe, who candidly preps and plans for an evening of clients from a single, seedy hotel room locale. Featuring additional appearances by Karine Elkins (Superstarlet A.D.) and disabled trans icon Sandie Crisp aka The Goddess Bunny, Wessel’s SEX, DEATH & THE HOLLYWOOD MYSTIQUE combines the true crime, biographical, and travelogue aesthetics of documentary filmmaking into one sprawling and unforgettable 2.5 hour SOV epic.
