Bruno Mattei's THE TOMB available. Kinda.

VCD/Thailand/fullscreen/Thai dub/no subs/2 discs

Oh sing thy songs of happiness thee wee ones for today I bring thee words of multo cool info! I've recently discovered there is yet another release of one of Bruno Mattei's last moves! This one is THE TOMB (2004) and it's been released not by our friends in the Česká republika but in Thailand. On video-cd. Dubbed in Thai. Without subtitles. :-(

Boo-hoo!! Why is the world so mean. Oh why oh why (he says while repeatedly spanking himself with a leafless branch). I wrote to Tom, an American in Thailand who runs a DVD store with his wife, Kat, called TK WORLDWIDE. He was nice enough to make a few phone calls and if it wasn't depressing enough that there's only a VCD available then get this: The company had actually planned a DVD as well but they just never got around to putting it out!!! :-(

Tom says there are so many DVD and especially VCD releases EVERY DAY that it's completely impossible to really get a good view of what is actually out there on the Thai market. Well, one thing that isn't out there is a Mattei film called THE TOMB. :/

Having said all of the above I should probably also mention there is actually a reg. 1 release of THE TOMB. It came out several years back and unfortunately I don't have it which is a pain as it seems it's OOP and slightly difficult to find by now.

You can get the VCD from eThaiCD ($7.50 incl. p&p). Go here.



Thanks to Tom for the effort. TK WORLDWIDE has a lot of cool Thai DVDs and I've bought quite a few films from there. Go here.

PS: Sorry about the crappy cover scan. Usually I spit on pixelating cover scans downloaded from the Internet but it was the only one I could find and besides, it kinda fits the crappy release.

Black Sabbath live Paris 1970

Just awesome!! From before Ozzy drank his brains out. From before they all started hating and suing each other. From before Ozzy began with his fucking hand clap and crazy look routine. From before they became asshole rock stars.

From Paris, 1970. I've listened to this four times in a row and I'm gonna listen to it again as soon as I finish this shit. Fucken awesome!!!

Lorna the Exorcist on DVD

Check this multo cool'o cover for Mondo Macabro's release of Jess/Jesus Franco's LORNA THE EXORCIST. Release date 29th of June. :D

...

Jezus Christ!! Check out this 17 y.o. metal chick (from the UK) and her guitar playing!!! Pretty awesome (everyone of her vids get like 6 billion comments!). Back in the day I learnt exactly three cords (enough for any good punk band of course!!).

A Bollywood star if ever there was one

"A very rare VCD"! That's what Member-X of Cinehound said when he posted this Bollywood video-cd cover scan. PFFFT!!!

Congrats. I guess. :/

These two awesome and very rare tapes, the Indonesian Barry Prima film REVENGE OF NINJA, and the dark and nasty Hong Kong horror movie BRUTAL SORCERY, were just sold on eBay. And I was too broke to make bids of any significance. Boo-hoo.

Well, congrats to whoever won them. I guess. You guys really ought to send them to me for free. They'd look much better on MY shelf. xD





I already have REVENGE OF NINJA but it's a fullscreen tape from Greece. This tape is a letterboxed VHS from Japan. And I've got a DVD-R of the HK VCD of BRUTAL but it's only in Mandarin without any subs. This tape is the Ocean Shores release which is dubbed in English.

Dark and Nasty HK: 降頭恐佈片紅鬼仔潘麗賢

Check this awesome clip out. Completely inspired by THE EVIL DEAD but also completely its own! The clip looks like it came (via a worn VHS) from a real film print.

Arr man, movies were so much better in the old days! xD

COMIC FACE (1897)

Oh Anna

Whatever you think of Anna Nicole Smith is fine but in my book she was pure psychotronic!! And if nothing else she did do two movies that are, well, pure psychotronic awesomeness! TO THE LIMIT (1995) and SKYSCRAPER (1996).

Anna Nicole's acting abilities were so terrible in both films it almost defies physical possibility but that's not really important here; What is of major importance is they both deliver in the entertainment department. Well, I take it you understand I mean: on a highly trashy level.

Check out these two trailers and you'll see what I mean, and also be SURE to check out the video at the bottom of this post. It's a (probably rare) video tape from the shooting of SKYSCRAPER; if you thought her acting abilities were bad when you watched the films or trailers then... watch this tape. It goes where no crappy actor or actress has gone before, LOL. (btw, it's timecoded and was most likely never meant to be made public, LOL). Both films are on video tape and DVD.
