Last Exit Entertainment proudly bring Andrey Iskanov’s epic juggernaut of extreme cinema, Philosophy of a Knife, to European DVD with this special edition, filled with exclusive bonus materials and footage never previously seen. At the end of World War II the Russian Army enter Japanese-occupied Manchuria and discover Unit 731. A prisoner of war camp where they realize horrendous crimes have taken place when they find documentation of experiments performed on the prisoners. Experiments so horrific that they immediately get stamped as confidential. Through interviews with doctor and military translator Anatoly Protasov, archive material and reconstructions, Andrey Iskanov creates an overwhelming and powerful story that takes us into the dark heart of Unit 731, force feeding us the gruesome experiments performed in the good name of science. Philosophy of a Knife is a story of human atrocities, but it is also the story of Unit 731 staff questioning their role in these merciless experiments. Quick cuts, loud music, horrific images and Iskanov’s stylistic surrealism all come together in this 256minute documentation of the vileness of man. Philosophy of a Knife is an endurance test and one of the most extreme movies ever made. But never forget, THIS REALLY HAPPENED!

Disturbing, Nacho Cerda, Cult, Underground, Horror, Arthouse, RARE!, Collection; 3 Film DVD Box - Ex Used condition
Wonderful trilogy of short films on the theme of death from Spanish director Nacho Cerdà. Cerda's films here are striking and intense. Featuring magnificent cinematography, these films project the viewer, without any real dialogue, into the world of death. “Aftermath” is truly disturbing and sometimes unbearable, but Cerda manages to make a horrible moment (the necrophilic inclinations of a forensic doctor...) into a somewhat aesthetic moment... Those familiar with Cerda's work will want this. Rare find in Australia, this 3 film DVD box is a nice item indeed....

The Singing Ringing Tree, partly due to its foreignness as both fairy tale and for the unfamiliarity of its German production, was 'indelibly carved on the psyches'of english speaking western cultures who viewed it as one of the most frightening things ever shown as a children's producton. The story they tell has an authentic Brothers Grimm feel, and not at all like the Disney versions of their works. Even Grimm had characters that children can feel comfortable with, but there are none in this outlandish fable. The Prince starts out charming enough and then turns into a bear, and a nasty bear at that. The Princess is spoilt and cruel, and gets turned into something hideous. These are the nearest to a ‘good’ people you get, everyone else seems to be either mad, ugly or an evil dwarf. The giant fish that totally terrified ususpecting kids is actually meant to be ‘friendly’, but the way it looked and moved freaked out most who saw it. It was otherworldly, and not something that anyone would consider comfortable...... this film is a strange and creepy trip indeed.

Quote: "Me and my girlfriend have killed dozens of people over the last years, worthless pieces of filth that won't be missed by anyone. We also captured some of our murders on video for a small group of like-minded people. But killing started to get boring, and so I decided to make my last dream become reality and have my girlfriend video tape it. For ages, I have been dreaming of inflicting actions of hatred and lust on a corpse, and then getting buried next to this last victim. So I kidnapped a 21 year old whore yesterday. I will kill her, bleed her, then let her ripen for four months, in order to commence with my final masterpiece. These are the videos leading up to my last, most depraved act. There is no dialogue in any of these shorts, which tell this story of madness through the actions of the killer. They consist of the following shorts: Snuff Tape 0 - Black & Died (4 min) Snuff Tape 1 - Red (6 min) Snuff Tape 2 - Red & Yellow (10 min) Snuff Tape 3 - Dead, Red & Brown (24 min) Snuff Tape 4 - Dead Fast Food (8 min) Snuff Tape 5 - Final Extreme Suicide (11 min) Snuff Tape 6 - Organ Trade Autopsy (6 min) Snuff Tape 7 - Gore (20 min) The Lost Snuff Tape - Dead Body (7 min)"

FISH STORY is a very strange film. It's a Japanese apocalyptic tale featuring four separate story lines that are woven together in such a way that'll have you scratching your head and trying to figure out how they all intertwine. Based on a novel by Kotaro Isaka, Fish Story weaves together several seemingly separate storylines taking place at different points in time over a 37-year span to explain how a little-known punk rock song can save the world. In 1975, an unpopular Japanese punk band called Gekirin (Wrath) break up soon after recording their final song: Fish Story. In 1982 a timid college student named Masashi (Gaku Hamada) becomes fascinated by strange rumors surrounding the song. In 2009 a teenager named Asami (Mikako Tabe) falls asleep during a school field trip and gets left behind on a boat which is taken over by terrorists. In 2012 a huge comet can be seen in the sky on a path to destroy Earth. How does a little punk song connect all these events?
