FEAR THE REAPERS DUO SLIPCASE
Love of two is one: This rigid duo slipcase with luxurious silver ink and red foil is the ONLY way to preserve and display Joe D’Amato & George Eastman’s pair of ItaloSplatter classics.
Outlandish protagonists and grandiose productions. This July, the masterful art thief DANGER: DIABOLIK (1968) infiltrates the collection once more in 4K UHD, and a demigod makes himself known in HERCULES AND THE CAPTIVE WOMEN / HERCULES IN THE HAUNTED WORLD (1961). 🌙
Directed by Mario Bava and based on the Italian comic series, the colourful crime caper Danger: Diabolik follows the suave, psychedelic-era thief and his sensual lover as they pull off elaborate heists under the noses of snooty officials. Restored from the original 35mm negative, this 2-disc 4K UHD and Blu-ray Hardbox is accompanied by a Hardcover Booklet.
Our Italian sword-and-sandal HERCULES adventure classics also come to a double-bill Limited Edition Blu-ray Hardbox. Fulfil the fates' destiny and accompany the titular legend, played by bodybuilder Reg Park, as he foils the Queen of Atlantis in Hercules and the Captive Women, and as he journeys to the dark and foggy underworld of Hades in Hercules in the Haunted World.
1500 copies only of each title. 📀 Pre-orders open next Tuesday 16 June.

DISC 1: SONNO PROFONDO: REDUX EDITION (2013)
After murdering a woman, a killer that is traumatized from his childhood memories gets a mysterious envelope slipped under his door. The hunter becomes the prey when he finds out that the envelope contains photos that show him killing the young woman.
A unique and experimental approach to the Giallo standard, with its first-person killer perspective; Sonno Profondo is as much mood-piece and evocation of atmospheres surrounding the genre as much as it is an intoxicating narrative horror thriller and is presented here in the Redux director’s cut edition.

Filled with a pulsing Goblin-esque soundtrack, 70’s atmosphere and all the earmarks of a classic Giallo, Abrakadabra at once pays homage to the bloody films of Dario Argento and Sergio Martino, while firmly taking its own place as the concluding chapter in the Onetti Brothers Giallo trilogy. It is presented here in the definitive director’s cut edition.
