***RELEASE DETAILS*** Coming soon on #4K and Blu-ray in the US from @MondoMacabroUSA: #BlackMagicWithBuddha (1983)! *PLEASE NOTE - the reverse cover image and the Blu cover are still in the design stage but will be revealed soon* Looking for a way to get rich quick, ne’er-do-well Ben Chin (played by Shaw Bros regular Chen Kuan-tai) travels to West Papua in order to steal the brain of a mummy and make it do his magic bidding, as one does. Though warned by a holy man to destroy the brain after using it only once, Ben cannot help himself and continues to use the malefic cerebellum to bump off his enemies and rise the corporate ladder. But the situation moves quickly out of his control, leading to a hallucinatory final confrontation between the grisly Brain Demon and a powerful deity known as the Four-Faced Buddha. BLACK MAGIC WITH BUDDHA is a particularly wild example of the ultra-gory ‘black magic’ themed horror films that were made in Hong Kong in the early 1980s, full of insane plotting, goopy, gross-out effects and deranged psychedelic imagery. Directed by another Shaw Bros veteran, Lo Lieh, for his own independent production company, BLACK MAGIC WITH BUDDHA has remained underseen for decades though it has become legendary among devotees of offbeat Asian horror. Mondo Macabro is very excited to present this amazing relic of Hong Kong trash-horror in a brand new 4K restoration, which was overseen by producer and Asian film expert Frédéric Ambroisine. This disc marks the first ever US release of the film in any format.
