Sorry, this entry is only available in German…
Wie vor einigen Tagen bei Twitter angedroht, dünne ich für meinen bevorstehenden Umzug ein bisschen mein DVD Regal aus. Da ich relativ wenig Lust auf ebay habe (Zielgruppe, Altersbeschränkung, Arbeit mit Artikelbeschreibung usw.) und dafür lieber die Leser beglücke, werde ich in den nächsten Woche immer mal wieder einige Sammlerstücke unter das lesende und vor allem kommentierende Affenvolk bringen.
Alles was ihr tun müsst, ist in den Kommentaren schreiben, weshalb gerade ihr das aktuell dargebotete Schmuckstück bekommen solltet. Das ganze soll wie immer eine Aktion für Leser sein, irgendwelche Schnorrer von Gewinnspielseiten können also gleich weiter wandern.

Den Anfang dieser kleinen Umzugsaktion macht das Scarface Deluxe Gift Set, das neben Brian De Palmas 1983er Kultfassung auch die Vorlage von 1932 enthält (beide RC1). Das ganze ist in einer riesigen Box (31x24x9cm) aus schwarzen Lederimitat mit Kunstsamteinlage etc. verpackt. Dazu gibt es noch eine “güldene” Geldspange mit Scarface Logo sowie großformatige Aushangfotos.

Alle Kommentare, die bis Mittwoch (26. Mai) 12:00 Uhr hier eintrudeln nehmen an der Aktion teil. Der Rechtsweg und sein hässlicher Bruder müssen wie immer draußen bleiben…

I guess the school girl theme has already been worn out to the limit, so our Japanese gore friends decided to pick another fetish nice for their next project as you can see in this English subtitled trailer for Go Ohara’s (Geisha vs. Ninjas) Gothic & Lolita Psycho.
Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police, The Ancient Dogoo Girl, RoboGeisha, Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl etc.) will take care of the thriftless use of fake blood spraying from all kind of open wounds…

Synopsis via Nippon Cinema:

Yuki (Gravure Idol Rina Akiyama) is a girl who lives at home in peace, until one day a unit of assassins breaks in and slaughters her mother.

In order to reveal the truth behind the seemingly senseless murder, Yuki transforms herself into a demon of vengeance by donning gothic lolita clothing, wielding a parasol as a deadly weapon, and executing the guilty in the name of God.

About a week before the Japanese Blu-ray Disc release of Evangelion 2.22: You Can (Not) Advance hits the shelves, Asia Video announces a little present for us Japanese-impaired Evangelion fans. According to YesAsia.com, the Hong Kong based distributor will release the film on Blu-ray Disc and DVD with English subtitles in two editions on June 25th. Next to the standard edition (DVD) which looks a lot like the Japanese release, there will also be a limited Edition (DVD) with some goodies…an Evangelion shopping bag and something Google just can’t translate.

The Blu-ray Disc editions will include the original Japanese 2.0 and 6.1 track and the Cantonese dub in 2.0, the used audio codec isn’t mentioned. Traditional Chinese subtitles are also listed, let’s hope Asia Video won’t make the same mistake as Panasia Films with their 20th Century Boys Blu-ray Disc releases. All editions are listed as Region A/Region 3.

Apparently this first trailer for Wen Jiang’ s Let The Bullets Fly has been captured at some kind of promotion event during the Cannes Film Festival. The film stars Chow Yun-Fet, Carina Lau and the director himself, and will open in Chinese theaters on October 1st.

Synopsis

Set in China during the warring 1920s, notorious bandit chief Zhang descends upon a remote provincial town posing as its new mayor, an identity that he had hijacked from Old Tang, himself a small-time imposter. Hell-bent on making a fast buck, Zhang soon meets his match in the tyrannical local gentry Huang as a deadly battle of wit and brutality ensues.

Good news for those of you who just couldn’t get enough from The Cup of Tears. The amazing trailer/short film from Irish director Gary Shore that hit the net last October and raised some eyebrows (it’s embedded below if you haven’t seen it yet) is about to be turned into a full-length film! According to Heat Vision, Universal and Working Title have acquired the rights and are bringing writers to work out the script for the film while Shore is supposed to direct.

The narrative follows a scorned geisha who creates a magical cup made of tears that causes any man who drinks from it to fall under a stasis of permanent sleep. One night the cup is stolen, setting off a chain of events that threatens civil war amongst the clans. Taro, a once gifted samurai, and his companion Jin set out to find the cup and the one who can break the spell before inner turmoil.
