<span style="color: black;">So, been a while, no? Some of you may have noticed there hasn't been a brand new post in, what, three years? Well, that's not changing now, but for those who stumbled upon this site via weird googling or were directed from another location, I at least wanted to pop a quick note up letting you know where the real action is:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Our</span> <b><a href="http://bruceholecheck.blogspot.com/2009/12/upcoming-dvd-blu-ray-releases-of-note.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Upcoming DVD & Blu-Ray Releases of Note</span></a></b> <span style="color: black;">list is constantly updated -- I'm biased, but I think it's the best of its type, and hopefully you'll find it useful.</span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Also, I post multiple times a week at the</span> <span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/cinemaarcana" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Cinema Arcana Facebook Page</span></a></b> </span><span style="color: black;">with pre-order write-ups, exclusive news announcements and other ramblings. I've also started an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cinema_arcana/" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: blue;">Instagram Page</span></b></a> and a <a href="https://twitter.com/CinemaArcana" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: blue;">Twitter Feed</span></b></a>.

<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">CARROLL BAKER stars in this amusing, and amorous escapade about a honeymoon gone sour and a wild plot to "revitalize" the groom.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Baker plays mother to virgin bride Valentina and impotent new husband John.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">John's uncle tempts the groom with a delectable diet of willing sex partners -- servant girls, waitresses, and even his own lover... with no success. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Still a virgin, Valentina flees to a nudist camp, only to be tracked by her mother and husband John, who discover the answer to John's problem after a rainy night together.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">In a rollicking "romantic" fiasco, husband, wife and mother embark on a colorful and "unique" honeymoon together.</span><br />

<span style="color: black;">A classic of the Chinese cinema! Directed by the "David Lean of China," Sun Chung, and starring the amazing Billy Chong, it has the sweep and grandeur befitting it's subject: the creation of the Republic of China. But more than just a majestic epic, it is a thrilling martial arts showcase with some of the best fights ever put to film. If you're never seen a kungfu movie, this is the one to see! If you've never liked kungfu movies, this is also the one to see. And, if you love kungfu movies, you have to see this one!</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">Bladestorm ... a terrifying story of brutality, horror and violence.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">A powerful, emotional and violent story of war and determination, of a man's hatred as he takes on the superior firepower of the enemy.</span></div>

Smiling Mask thought that it was the best chance to fulfill his plan. He appointed Hsueh Yen-Niang and some men to rob. They captured Chin Hsiaoi-Yu. Chin Liang was forced to fall down the cliff by Crying Mask. Nevertheless, he gave the Phoenix Sword to the boy Lin while he was in danger...</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Roger, the president of the agency, uses his power and charm to seduce the girls and fulfill all his sexual fantasies. A young writer for the agency discovers the swinging activities and decides to have an affair of his own with one of Roger's prize clients.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The star-struck lovelies all parade through Roger's bedroom giving him sexual favors in exchange for fame. They soon realize he's exploiting them when their bodies are used as prizes in a wild game show orgy!</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">Welcome to <b>Five Films</b>, a self-descriptive feature here at Cinema Arcana where I invite guests to contribute lists of movies they feel are underrated. No rules, no limits -- just a quintet of motion pictures they'd love more people to know about. Hopefully in doing so we can turn you, the fearless reader, onto a gem you've previously skipped or remind you to rewatch a past favorite you've forgotten about.</span></div>

There's only 113 available, so if you're into that sort of thing, don't delay! But back here at Cinema Arcana, it's nostalgia time, as Leif takes us through his formative years.

<span style="color: black;">When asked to contribute my list of Five Overlooked Flicks, a potential line-up instantly started to take form. It included titles I thought might be too obvious, a few that would hit the mark perfectly, and some that would appear to not fit the criteria at all -- though I'll happily argue that certain elements of the more widely known films are being overlooked. Romero's <i>Knightriders</i>, Friedkin's <i>Bug</i> and <i>Cruising</i>, Zulawski's <i>Possession</i>, <i>The Changeling</i>, <i>Jack's Back</i>, <i>Local Hero</i>, Howard S. Berger's <i>Original Sins</i>, Ronnie Sortor's <i>Ravage</i>, Guy Benoit's <i>Crosley Fiver</i> short, <i>Real Men</i>, <i>Risky Business</i>, <i>Hair</i> and <i>Rocky</i> were the first to come to mind, but the five I settled on are:</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The Chuck Norris flick <em>The Octagon</em> was the first R-Rated movie I ever saw in a theater without an adult; I was accompanied by my buddy Scott Ford. <em>The Black Hole</em> was the first movie I ever saw on the big screen by myself; no adults, no friends. When <em>The Black Hole</em> was over I sneaked into the theater next door and caught the last two-thirds of <em>Going in Style</em>, a comedy starring George Burns, Art Carney and Lee Strasberg. Though I doubt I was the target audience, as I was only nine or ten years old at the time, I thought the flick was hilarious, touching and flat-out entertaining. I actually went back and bought a ticket so I could see it from the beginning and eventually ended up sneaking into the theater again and watching it a few more times before it was gone. Today, the movie is still fresh, funny and eminently watchable with a genuinely great script and wonderful performances. Screenwriter/director Martin Brest went on to make the big hit <em>Midnight Run</em>, the smash <em>Beverly Hills Cop</em> and the super-bomb <em>Gigli</em>, but in my opinion this is the one he should be known for at the end of the day. It's just a damn great flick. Most people I've spoken to have never heard of <em>Going in Style</em>, let alone seen it, so I don't want to spoil things by describing it to death, just check it out if you get a chance.</span><span style="color: black;"></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">My dad and I caught a number of drive-in triple-features back in the late '70s and early '80s. I remember watching several specific movies very clearly but the actual line-ups are a bit foggy now. I know we saw <i>Fear No Evil </i>on the tail-end of a triple-bill that included either <i>The Hills Have Eyes</i>, <i>Friday the 13th</i>, <i>Prophecy</i>, <i>An Eye for an Eye</i>, <i>Vice Squad</i>, ...or something else I can't remember. I feel like I recall saying <i>The Hills Have Eyes</i> was the most suspenseful of the three, <i>Friday the 13th</i> was the most scary, and <i>Fear No Evil</i> was easily the weirdest of the bunch, so it <i>seems</i> that was the lineup, but for years I assumed <i>FNE</i> played with <i>An Eye for an Eye</i> since they were both Avco/Embassy releases. Regardless, I thought the trailer was compelling, with the shot of the kid hurtling against the wall in gym class, and had almost caught <i>FNE</i> previously on a program with <i>Phantasm</i> and <i>Maniac</i>, but Philadelphia Inquirer critic Desmond Ryan had just written a huge article eviscerating <i>Maniac</i> as worthless, misogynistic gore-porn, so my dad refused to check it out. I'd have to wait a few years to finally see<i> Maniac</i> and <i>Phantasm</i> on video and HBO, respectively. Anywho, I first viewed <i>FNE </i>at the drive-in and it made an indelible impression. I was ten or eleven and didn't fully grasp the plot, nor the overt homoerotic themes, nor did I always understand what exactly was happening onscreen, but man, it was just such a bizarre, energetic movie made by a filmmaker with an undeniably unique vision and, in my estimation, <i>clearly</i> talent to burn. Sure, the film was all over the place, just wildly uneven, often seeming largely out-of-control, but I couldn't help digging the hell out of it. It features some damn good cast members who give excellent, compelling performances, and then there are some folks who I still wonder how they got onto the set. Its soundtrack is a bizarre mix of beautiful, driving, often furious original orchestral music (co-composed by the director LaLoggia) and a selection of punk and new wave songs from The Ramones, The Sex Pistols, Talking Heads, Boomtown Rats, B-52's and others. There's carefully composed camerawork with exciting, atmospheric cinematography throughout (the time lapse on the house being a personal favorite moment), along with bright, garish, unconvincing optical effects that my friend Steve Turner appropriately called, "Disney-esque." Of all the flicks on my list, <i>Fear No Evil</i> is the one that will leave most scratching their heads wondering what I was thinking, but there'll be a few who get it. And if you get it, you'll get it good.</span></div>

This was long before I eventually saw <em>The Decline of Western Civilization</em> or <em>Streets of Fire</em>, so this was my first exposure to the majesty that is Lee Ving -- who delivers a high-voltage supporting performance as a crazed rock star. (This guy could've and should've had a bigger film career.) It also features one of my three all-time favorite performances from Malcolm McDowell (the other two being <em>A Clockwork Orange</em> and <em>Time After Time</em>) and Daniel Stern (the other two being <em>Breaking Away</em> and <em>C.H.U.D.</em>). According to the IMDB, Linnea Quigley even has an uncredited role as a groupie. This was a flick that I, like most folks, would dismiss at first glance as a forgettable, goofball comedy, but like <em>Real Men</em>, there's something else at work here -- a fast-flowing, comedic energy coming from a fresh, imaginative film-making perspective. High-art? No, but in a world where Adam Sandler is remaking <em>Summer School</em> and factory-produced titles like <em>Epic Movie</em> and its ilk are cleaning up at the box office, I'll happily <em>Get Crazy</em> instead any day. (Just now looking at IMDB, I had forgotten it was directed by the great Allan Arkush who also gave us the immortal <em>Rock 'n' Roll High School</em>.)</span><span style="color: black;"></span></div>

I was eleven or twelve and thought it was a pretty damn tough, rough, riveting experience, particularly when Marjoe Gortner pulled Lee Grant's sweater up over her head and then beat the hell out of her husband, played by Hal Linden. At this point my dad suddenly got pissed off, angrily growling something about, "...watching this vile fucking bullshit on my TV..." and turned the channel. I finally caught the movie in its entirety a couple weeks later when it showed in the middle of the night and it continued to deliver on the promise of what I had seen earlier. <em>Red Ryder</em> did have a limited VHS release but I don't think it ever hit laserdisc or DVD. A couple of years ago I tracked down a bootleg copy and found that, though the overall film and writing was more raggedy around the edges than I had remembered, it still retained a lot of its brute power. Worth a watch if you can track it down.</span><span style="color: black;"></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Ten or so years ago I was out in L.A. during some last-ditch financing efforts for my proposed <i>Demon Machine</i> project. I was talking to a development executive at a fairly big studio who told me William Friedkin was her favorite director. I agreed that he was also among my favorites, saying, "I'm one of the few people I'm aware of who really loves <i>Sorcerer</i>." This development exec, with quite a bit of power to pass movies up the line of consideration, had never heard of it. I asked her, "So, you're a big fan of <i>The French Connection</i>?" She had never seen it. Nope, though she had never heard of <i>Sorcerer</i> nor seen <i>French Connection</i>, Friedkin was her "favorite director" because<i> The Exorcist: The Version You've Never Seen</i> had just received tons of press and promotion during its recent $50-million grossing theatrical re-release. These are the folks deciding what movies you get to see, people. Anyway, I absolutely love <i>Sorcerer</i> and have since I was 14 or 15. I pretty much read anything about this flick that I can find. I just devoured William Friedkin's autobiography, '<i>The Friedkin Connection</i>,' and had previously read the bio '<i>Hurricane Billy</i>,' along with Stephen King's comments in his '<i>Danse Macabre</i>.' Over the years I've heard many theories/reasons why it bombed upon its release in 1977, the most common being that <i>Star Wars </i>killed it, but I <i>still </i>don't get why it didn't find an audience. I was only eight years old when I first saw the promos on television, and the shots of the truck crossing that perilously-swinging, decaying bridge absolutely mesmerized me. I was eight and even then I realized this was a special shot, that something was happening here beyond what other movies offered. I had seen <i>Star Wars</i> and <i>Jaws</i> but I still wanted to see this movie <i>Sorcerer</i>, too, but I'd have to wait a few years. When I did finally check it out I found it on RCA Videodisc. We rented <i>The Wild Bunch</i>, <i>Cruising</i>, <i>Phantasm</i> and<i> Sorcerer</i> that night, plus an RCA player, and taped the movies off onto our Betamax. It was a hell of a line-up that evening. I had seen <i>Phantasm </i>a few times by then but none of the other movies and they all lived up to their reputations and/or my expectations. <i>Sorcerer</i> will potentially be discovered by a larger audience soon as it's currently being remastered in 4k and will be screening at various film festival and theatrical dates before hitting Blu-Ray. Hopefully it will finally get its due as a superior piece of dramatic, action / adventure filmmaking. I'm often asked what my favorite movie of all time is and I honestly can't say with absolute certainty, but this is always one of the main contenders. I can only hope someday making-of production footage surfaces to provide the basis for a <i>Hearts of Darkness-</i>type documentary.</span></div>

<b><u><span style="color: black;">Verbatim Box Synopsis</span></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The year is 1994. A powerful disturbance rocks the Caribbean. From its crystal depths rises the ancient island sung of in legend... ATLANTIS, the Lost Continent!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Stranded by the powerful maelstrom created by the continent's mysterious reappearance, a group of intrepid adventurers set foot on the island's forbidden shores. There, the daring raiders engage in deadly combat with savage plunderers armed with an arsenal of subtle, deadly traps -- and a doomsday array of atomic weapons trained on the capitals of the world!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">In just a matter of hours and -- at any cost -- American soldiers must destroy a secret Nazi radar station in France. The Allied Air Force strike taking place in 24 hours will be shot down if the radar isn't destroyed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">As the GI's ambush a German truck, the French prisoners escape and hide in a nearby hay wagon. The Frenchmen pose as peasants and drive the hay wagon past a Nazi patrol to get their attention.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Meanwhile, the American GI's infiltrate the German lines. Once the Frenchmen are discovered they are tortured and executed by the Nazis for helping the Americans. But it's too late! Despite bloody battles with the Nazis and many casualties, the GI's demolish the radar station in time for the full blown air strike!</span><br />

<span style="color: black;">One of the most brutal and mysterious stories ever to be released in home video <i>Tower of Evil</i> is a haunting tale set in and around a deserted lighthouse on fog shrouded Snape Island.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The terror begins when a nude, crazed woman slaughters a sailor who visits the island. When she is taken back to civilization and an ancient relic is discovered, an expedition is mounted to solve the mystery of the island which leads to a series of psychosexual murders.</span></div>

<b><u><span style="color: black;">Verbatim Box Synopsis</span></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Welcome to Brittlehouse Manor, a "health resort" where young people are cured of all their hang-ups in one stroke. One stroke, that is, of Doc Storm's scalpel.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">You see Doc Storm, a crippled demented genius in a wheel chair, has a laboratory where he performs hideous and graphic brain surgery on his young patients -- making them cooperative, brainless, zombies.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">With the help of Frederick the dwarf, the "Bike Boys", and Doc Storm's infamous decapitating limousine the new patients are guaranteed all the "rest" they will ever need.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Welcome back to the ol' Arcana for another round of <b>Grab Bag Goodies!</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">As outlined in previous installments, I purchased a few hundred promotional stills that have had their title captions trimmed off. Some I recognize, most I don't. It's up to my faithful readership to help me decipher what they're promoting. Hell, solve enough of 'em and maybe I'll send you some of the duplicates I received!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">For those not familiar with promo stills, they occasionally carry a helpful hint or two. Some are branded with a cataloging code of letters and numbers which usually signify an abbreviation of the title (sometimes a retitling) and, if you're especially lucky, maybe the year of release (not to be confused with year of production). And that's pretty much all we have to go on...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The twenty-fifth batch is below; let's see what you've got!</span></div>

<b><u><span style="color: black;">Verbatim Box Synopsis</span></u></b></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">The techniques of budo -- kendo, karate, aikido, judo -- are explored in an astonishing look at the oriental "art of killing." Everything you see in <i>Budo</i> is <i>real</i>: the amazing action is performed by the master practitioners of these spiritual and physical skills.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">In ancient Japan, the sword of the samurai knight ruled the land. The average citizen was not allowed to be armed, so the art of hand-to-hand fighting -- BUDO -- was invented to combat the sword.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">This fascinating one-of-a-kind history penetrates the martial arts' deep roots in Eastern philosophy, the religious thought that animates the master's fearless self-confidence, and the eternal spirit of fighting protection. The myths and legends surrounding the warring arts are finally dispelled in a definitive picture of the truth about life and death in battle.</span></div>
