The Godfathers of Italian cult cinema director Umberto Lenzi (Nightmare Beach) and co-writer Dario Argento (Suspiria) bring you this blazing WWII actioner about the bold men who challenged the Devil and won! Grizzled Jack Palance (Shane) puts on a roguish brogue as Scottish Colonel Charley MacPherson, who's just had his platoon of 28 massacred by the Germans. Furious at his superiors for this suicide mission, he assembles a dirty half-dozen convicts for his next one, along with American explosives expert Major Burke (Thomas Hunter, The Hills Run Red), to clear a path for British commandos through a minefield off the Normandy coast on the night of June 4th, 1944. Aka Legion of the Damned, this rip-roaring classic of the Macaroni War genre co-stars Aldo Sambrell (Navajo Joe) with The Longest Day baddies Curd Jurgens (The Spy Who Loved Me) and Wolfgang Preiss (The Train).

From Michael Winner, the acclaimed director of The System, The Jokers, Lawman, The Nightcomers, The Mechanic, Death Wish and The Sentinel, comes this charming WWII adventure-comedy.

When the zoo is bombed by the Americans, Brooks is ordered to transport Lucy by train to a safer zoo in Innsbruck. But when the train is commandeered by German troops, Brooks must escort the feisty pachyderm across the Austrian border on foot. Two of the film’s best features are the terrific color photography by Robert Paynter (Little Shop of Horrors) and original musical score by the great Francis Lai (Love Story). Co-starring Michael J.

Description

Before Black Sabbath, before I Vampiri, director Giorgio Ferroni (The Lion of Thebes, Blood for a Silver Dollar) introduced audiences to period horror Italian-style with his chilling 1960 shocker Mill of the Stone Women – a classic tale of terror redolent with the atmosphere of vintage Hammer Horror. Young art student Hans von Arnam (Pierre Brice, Night of the Damned) arrives by barge at an old mill to write a monograph about its celebrated sculptures of women in the throes of death and torture, maintained and curated by the mill’s owner, the hermetic Professor Wahl (Herbert Böhme, Secret of the Red Orchid). But when Hans encounters the professor’s beautiful and mysterious daughter Elfi (Scilla Gabel, Modesty Blaise), his own fate becomes inexorably bound up with hers, and with the shocking secret that lies at the heart of the so-called Mill of the Stone Women. The first Italian horror film to be shot in color, Mill of the Stone Women prefigured a raft of other spaghetti nightmares, including the work of maestros Mario Bava and Dario Argento. Arrow Video is proud to present this brand-new restoration of one of the foundational titles of Italian horror. 2-DISC LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS New 2K restoration from the original negative by Arrow Films 1080p Blu-ray™ presentations of four different versions of the film: the original 96-minute Italian and English export versions, the 90-minute French version, containing exclusive footage, and the 95-minute US version, containing alternate dubbing, re-ordered scenes and added visual effects Limited edition packaging with reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Adam Rabalais Illustrated collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the film by Roberto Curti, an in-depth comparison of the different versions by Brad Stevens, and a selection of contemporary reviews Fold-out double-sided poster featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Adam Rabalais Six double-sided, postcard-sized lobby card reproduction artcards DISC 1 – THE ITALIAN AND ENGLISH EXPORT VERSIONS Restored original lossless mono Italian and English soundtracks Newly translated English subtitles for the Italian soundtrack Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for the English soundtrack New audio commentary by Tim Lucas, author of Mario Bava: All the Colors of the Dark Mill of the Stone Women & The Gothic Body, a new visual essay on the trope of the wax/statue woman in Gothic horror by author and critic Kat Ellinger Turned to Stone, a newly edited featurette containing archival interviews with actress Liana Orfei and film historian Fabio Melelli A Little Chat with Dr. Mabuse, an archival interview with actor Wolfgang Preiss Rare opening titles from the UK release, re-titled “Drops of Blood” German opening titles US and German theatrical trailers Image galleries DISC 2 – THE FRENCH AND US VERSIONS (LIMITED EDITION EXCLUSIVE) Restored original lossless mono French soundtrack for the French version Restored original lossless mono English soundtrack for the US version Newly translated English subtitles for the French soundtrack Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for the English soundtrack
