DVD, Hong Kong, (Frolic Pictures – Grindhouse series) New
After his sister dies under mysterious circumstances while on vacation, Wai Lun decides to take matters into his own hands. Soon enough, he discovers a family curse, battling wizards, and centipedes — lots and lots of centipedes. Written by Suet Ming Chan (making this one of the only Hong Kong Category III horror movies written by a woman) and filled with creepy crawlies, melodrama, evil spirits and insect-barfing, CENTIPEDE HORROR is a true discovery for adventurous horror-fiends. Never released legitimately on home video in the U.S., This DVD is repressed from the only 35mm film print in existence. Also of note, there is a great bit of moody 80s synthesizer work in here, which sounds awfully familiar to something from El-p’s ‘Fantastic Damage’ album.
