New From MVD Coming in August ..This looks like a must see!!


Soaked In Bleach coming to DVD on August 14th

Benjamin Statler's groundbreaking docudrama explores the controversial death of Kurt Cobain 
Soaked In Bleach, a docudrama by Benjamin Statler, reveals the events behind Kurt Cobain's death as seen through the eyes of Tom Grant, the private investigator that was hired by Courtney Love in 1994 to track down her missing husband (Kurt Cobain) only days before his deceased body was found at their Seattle home. Cobain's death was ruled a suicide by the police (a reported self-inflicted gunshot wound), but doubts have circulated for twenty years as to the legitimacy of this ruling, especially due to the work of Mr. Grant, a former L.A. County Sheriff's detective, who did his own investigation and determined there was significant empirical and circumstantial evidence to conclude that foul play could very well have occurred. The film develops as a narrative mystery with cinematic re-creations, interviews with key experts and witnesses and the examination of official artifacts from the 1994 case.
Statler says, "Half of the film is cinematic recreations of Tom Grant's investigation in 94' incorporating actual audio recordings, while the other half of the film is interviews with Tom Grant and some of the world's top experts in the respective areas of the case. The recreations served the purpose of helping people to see how the investigation actually unfolded and to better appreciate the context of certain situations.  The interviews provide the objective scientific facts involved in the case of Kurt Cobain's death and back up what Tom Grant has been saying for 20 plus years."
Soaked In Bleach is Benjamin Statler's directorial debut. He also wrote and produced the film under his production company Montani Productions He has been the executive producer on such projects as fan favorite Comic Con Episode 4: A Fan's Hope and the fact-based Navy Seal thriller Act Of Valor. 

Soaked In Bleach, is the first in a trilogy of docudramas to be produced by Montani Productions. Ben will also be producing and directing other projects with Montani, which primarily will be based on true life stories.

We are Monster: From Revolver is worth a watch...Not

We Are Monster is dramatization of the true story of Robert Stewart and the brutal in-prison murder of Zahid Mubarek.

Pre Order Here:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YB41F4Q/ref=cm_sw_su_dp

Trailer:
I  watched this film thinking I was really going to like it, but that wasn't so much the case, most of this film is on a set made to look like a prison & isn't so convincing. I would say the majority of the film is the viewer having to listen to this guys thought, he has dual personalities & often spends time talking to himself, as we here his thoughts over and over, its just takes up most of the film. Based on a true story the man seems to be a little torn between right & wrong but is definitely siding more with his devil side & the subject is racism he finally gives in to his evil side & kills his cell mate right before he is to be released, a sad story indeed, for those who have never heard of this story, i'm sure if there are any other films on the subject they are better then this one, i cant really recommend this film its quite boring.

RAW GUTS FOR GLORY! FLESH AGAINST STEEL!

The most dangerous game ever devised, to pit man against man, flesh against steel - the figure-8 race! Jack Hill (Coffy, Foxy Brown) follows up Spider Baby, once again teaming up with Sid Haig (House of 1000 Corpses) in one of his greatest roles for this action-spectacular crash-o-rama!

Richard Davalos (East of Eden) stars as Rick Bowman, a street punk who winds up in jail after a street race goes wrong. Bailed out by race promoter Grant Willard, Davalos is put in the deadly track where he comes up against Haig's maniacal winner Hawk Sidney. Featuring an outstanding supporting cast including Brian Donlevy (The Quatermass Xperiment) in his last film appearance, Ellen Burstyn, billed as Ellen McRae (The Exorcist), and Beverly Washburn (Spider Baby), Pit Stop is one of Hill's lesser known films but arguably his greatest.

Filmed on a real figure-8 track, Hill and his crew were able to capture gripping real-life car wreck scenes lending the film a brilliant sense of realism. You've never seen a motion picture like this before - can you take it?

La Grande Bouffe - Dual Format DVD & Blu-ray - ORDER HERE

The most famous film by Italian provocateur Marco Ferreri (Dillinger is Dead), La Grande bouffe was reviled on release for its perversity, decadence and attack on the bourgeoisie yet won the prestigious FIPRESCI prize after its controversial screening at the Cannes Film Festival.

Four friends, played by international superstars Marcello Mastroianni (Fellini's 8½), Michel Piccoli (Belle de jour), Ugo Tognazzi (Barbarella) and Philippe Noiret (Zazie dans le métro) retreat to a country mansion where they determine to eat themselves to death whilst engaging in group sex with prostitutes and a local school teacher (Andréa Ferréol, The Tin Drum), who seems to be up for anything...

At once jovial and sinister, the film's jet-black humour has a further twist as the reputed actors (whose characters use their own names) buck their respectable trend for a descent into fart-filled chaos that delivers a feast for the eyes and mind.

IT'S NOT CRANBERRY SAUCE!

What do you get if you combine Thanksgiving, American TV star Louise Lasser (Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman), killer 80s synths and some of the most gruesome special effects in all of slasher history courtesy of Ed (Terminator 2) French. Why, it's Blood Rage of course!

Todd and Terry seem like sweet kids - that is, until one of them takes an axe to face of a fellow patron at the local drive-in. Todd is blamed for the bloody crime and institutionalised, whilst twin brother Terry goes free. Ten years later and, as the family gathers around the table for a Thanksgiving meal, the news comes in that Todd has escaped - and he's heading their way. But has the killer twin in fact been in their midst all along? One thing's for sure, there WILL be blood...

Filmed in 1983 at the tail-end of the slasher golden era but not released until 1987, Blood Rage (also re-cut and released to theatres as Nightmare at Shadow Woods) has been lovingly restored from the original vault materials for its first ever appearance on Blu-ray and DVD. Happy Thankskilling!
