PSYCHO GOTHIC LOLITA
First time on blu-ray! The petite and proper Yuki once led a peaceful, loving life with her kind parents until the day her family’s happiness was suddenly shattered by a gang of black-clad thugs. After the brutal gang beating, her father was left paralyzed and her mother murdered! The only one to escape physically intact was Yuki who has plunged into a deep depression and is consumed with rage. Fashioning herself into an elegant, parasol-twirling, goth-styled demon of vengeance, Yuki sets off to enact the ultimate payback for her father’s assault and her mother’s death! Outrageous, eye-popping special effects were created by the master of visceral visuals, Yoshiro Nishimura (The Machine Girl, Tokyo Gore Police)! (Live Action Feature Film/ Blu-ray)
PINOCCHIO 964
First time on blu-ray! Shozin Fukui’s Pinocchio 964 depicts the nightmarish journey of a discarded cybernetic sex android that is expelled from a brothel and left to fend for himself. Aimlessly wandering around the city, Pinocchio meets Kyoto, an amnesiac homeless girl with a horrible secret of her own. Together, they try to piece together their past lives and survive in a cruel, brutal hellscape. At the same time, Pinocchio’s fiendish creators search desperately to find their lost prototype android before the public and authorities discover him! As agents pursue Pinocchio, his frantic escape morphs into a mind-warping hallucinogenic thrill ride! Be prepared! Shozin Fukui’s masterful direction provides the viewer with a totally unique experience along the lines of Tetsuo: The Iron Man. This subversive underground classic packed the theaters in Japan where it was hailed as an innovative masterpiece!(Live Action Feature Film/Blu-ray) “964 Pinocchio will… melt your brain. It’s a creative, unique, and downright insane film… Highly Recommended – but you were warned.” – DVD Talk
