A womanising jewel thief (Jean-Pierre Mocky) becomes embroiled in a struggle involving his younger brother's leftist revolutionary group.

KEEP AMERICA BEAUTIFUL.

After his daughter (Susan Sarandon in her first screen role) overdoses on heroin, wealthy NY businessman Bill Compton (Dennis Patrick) confronts her drug dealer boyfriend in a rage and accidentally murders him. Stunned, he retreats to a nearby bar and finds himself confessing his crime to a stranger: the charismatic yet deeply bigoted blue-collar factory worker Joe (a remarkable Peter Boyle). 

When the hippy-hating Joe discovers his new friend is telling the truth, he begins to ingratiate himself into Compton’s life, and despite their vastly different backgrounds the two men find themselves developing a rapport based around their shared fear and disdain of the counter culture, an uneasy alliance that will eventually have devastating consequences.

Directed by John G Avildsen (Rocky) from a typically trenchant Norman Wexler (Saturday Night Fever, Serpico) screenplay, Joe ruthlessly exposes the dark heart of American society in a shocking, darkly satirical depiction of the fierce cultural battleground of the USA at the beginning of the 1970s, and the violent death of the hippy dream.

When the wealthy patriarch of the Inugami dynasty dies, he leaves his fortune to Tamayo (Yoko Shimada, Shogun), a young woman from outside the family. There is one condition: she must marry one of his grandsons. As the family gather in the stately mansion to discuss the situation, grisly murders occur. Detective Kosuke Kindaichi arrives to investigate the case and uncovers the secret history of the family’s bloodline. Directed by Kon Ichikawa (Ten Women in Black, Fires on the Plain), this murder mystery was a massive hit in Japan that profoundly changed the Japanese film industry. Infused with a gothic atmosphere and featuring several now-iconic scenes, The Inugami Family has rarely been seen outside its home country, making it one of Japanese cinema’s best-kept secrets.

Pleasure under the burning sun takes on sinister undertones in this haunting tale of a cruel father determined to tempt his son into relinquishing his spiritual ambitions.

At the height of the Napoleonic wars, a Polish soldier seeks refuge in a deserted house in the Spanish town of Saragossa, and discovers a mysterious manuscript written in a language he doesn’t speak. When enemy Spanish officers arrive to arrest him, one of the soldiers realises that the book appears to tell the story of his grandfather, Alfonse Van Worden (Zbigniew Cybulski, Ashes and Diamonds), and his surreal, mystical adventures in the region several decades before. He starts to translate the text for the Polish soldier, and so begins a time-shifting, genre-hopping, ouroboros-like epic narrative, one that blends the gothic, quixotic and erotic, and in the process interrogates the very nature of storytelling itself. Championed by Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola, The Saragossa Manuscript has grown in status since its initial release from a cult oddity to a film widely regarded as one of greatest ever produced in Poland, and a work that cemented Wojciech Has as one of European cinema’s most visionary and idiosyncratic directors.

For the first-time ever on home video, this collection presents the complete output of the iconoclastic independent Iranian film studio founded in the late 1950s by a towering figure of Iranian culture, Ebrahim Golestan. The studio’s earliest productions were documentaries that helped bring Iranian cinema to international attention, including The House Is Black, directed by the poet Forough Farrokhzad. From 1961, the studio turned to fiction. Two feature films were completed, including the pivotal Brick and Mirror – both of which are presented here. After years of circulation in compromised versions, sometimes altered by censorship, these classics, which map the origins of the Iranian New Wave, are now presented in restored and definitive versions. The nine films in this set move fluidly from prose poetry to political allegory, achieving remarkable results that have inspired generations of filmmakers from Abbas Kiarostami to Jonathan Glazer.

Abel Ferrara (Ms .45) directs cyberpunk pioneer William Gibson's neo-noir short story about industrial espionage. Two extraction specialists Fox (Christopher Walken, King of New York) and X (Willem Dafoe, Poor Things) are hired to tempt the genius Hiroshi away from a rival company by using sexy call girl Sandii (Asia Argento, Land of the Dead). Featuring a variety of screens and footage, New Rose Hotel uses these mixed media formats to distance us from Hiroshi as an intractable presence that emphasises the lack of control experienced by Fox and X whilst also presenting a prescient view of our own engagement with screens and digital communications. Misunderstood upon release, Ferrara's feverish film has been reappraised in recent years and compared to David Lynch's exploration of perception and paranoia. Newly restored and making its UK home video debut, New Rose Hotel is one of the finest examples of cyberpunk on film.

"Inside there is Evil"

Coming from Transmission are two of the most infamous and shocking TV horror films from Spain. Presenting a double-bill of Antonio Mercero’s La cabina and Narcisco Ibáñez Serrandor’s El televisor, Two Boxes: Televised Terror in Franco's Spain showcases a growing middle-class stifled by state surveillance and societal control under the '70s dictatorship. Both showcase this transitionary tension with dark humour and lurid horror-anthology premises; in La cabina a man gets trapped in a telephone box, in El televisor a man gets consumed with obsession around a TV set.

Chasm Films is a label dedicated to curating a catalogue of under-seen, under-appreciated and underground contemporary world genre cinema.

During the Spanish Civil War, a circus clown is recruited to the Republican cause and forced to massacre dozens of Nationalist troops with only a machete. Decades later, his traumatised son Javier (Carlos Areces) becomes a clown himself, albeit a “sad” clown fuelled by the tragedy he has seen. He performs opposite the arrogant “happy” clown Sergio (Antonio de la Torre) and finds himself falling in love with Sergio’s partner, the beautiful acrobat Natalia (Carolina Bang). Soon, sad clown and happy clown are locked in a love triangle that spirals into spectacular violence. Written and directed by Álex de la Iglesia (The Day of the Beast), The Last Circus is a landmark in Spanish genre cinema – a blackly comic horror show that revels in the shocking, the transgressive and the absurd.

Harry, a drifter (Don Johnson, Miami Vice) rolls into town and talks his way into a job at a car dealership where he becomes caught between two beautiful women, the boss’s conniving wife Dolly (Virginia Madsen, Candyman) and Gloria (Jennifer Connelly, Requiem for a Dream) a naive young accountant whose life is complicated by blackmail. When Harry plans to rob the local bank, he becomes enmeshed in a lethal web of lust, greed and extortion, whose only escape is murder.

A happily married businessman (Ugo Tognazzi, Weak Spot) succumbs to the advances of one of his less square, more open-minded female friends. His eyes now open to the rampant adultery among his high-society acquaintances, he is amazed at the ease with which they lie to their loved ones. Soon, he begins to suspect his loving wife (Claudia Cardinale, Girl with a Suitcase) of infidelity – even as she guesses nothing of his own extramarital affair. Antonio Pietrangeli’s luscious adaptation of Fernand Crommelynck’s tale of obsession and delusion skewers the changing mores and tenacious prejudices of 1960s Italian society with style. As the troubled husband’s paranoia takes him ever further away from reality, his fantasies come to life in sumptuous dream sequences, each one a dashing tribute to the radiant charm of Claudia Cardinale.

Arguably the two most significant and dominant trends in post-war cinema developed on opposing sides of the globe, and opposing sides of the war - America oversaw the birth of film noir, with its hardboiled detectives and femme fatales, and then Italy developed its hugely influential brand of neorealism, with its emphasis on working class struggles, socio-political commentary, and documentary-like aesthetic. While on the surface the two disciplines seemed wildly different in approach, they also had surprising amount in common, sharing a focus on the lowest strata of society, a commitment to depicting its characters in stark and unglamorous ways, and a moral ambiguity to the storytelling that would occasionally tip over into cynical pessimism, reflecting the despair of the post-war period. These two cinematic languages would influence and bleed into one another throughout the 1940s and 50s, and presented here are three Italian neorealist films that clearly derive inspiration and themes from their US noir counterparts.

THE BANDIT

Returning from war, Ernesto (Amedeo Nazzari, Nights of Cabiria) comes home without a family to welcome him. A chance encounter with a gangster's moll, Lydia (Anna Magnani, Rome, Open City) catapults him to a life of crime. Redolent of American gangster pictures of the 1930s and bathed in chiaroscuro lighting, like many Italian genre films, Alberto Lattuada's The Bandit is a genre hybrid, at once noirish but infused with realism that brings to the fore the desperation of the post-War period. Newly restored, Radiance Films is proud to present this seminal film on any digital format for the first time outside of Italy. 

AGAINST THE LAW

A middle class man laundering money for the mob to make ends meet witnesses a murder during a currency exchange. Fingered as the murderer by police, he and his girlfriend attempt to clear his name. A Hitchcockian wrong man thriller in a crime framework, Pietro Germi’s scenario echoes the American noir, with a screenplay co-authored by the former head of Rome’s flying squad, Against the Law was noted for its realism on release where it was a hit with audiences and critics. Starring a charming Marcello Mastroianni in his first leading role, Flavio Calzavara’s under-seen gem is now restored in 4K and released for the first time on any format outside of Italy. 

FOUR WAYS OUT

A gang of four ordinary men steal two cases stuffed with money from a football ground. They split up to evade capture but misplaced allegiances and nerves threaten their freedom. A Hollywood-style noir by Pietro Germi (The Facts of Murder), Four Ways Out (also known as The City Defends Itself) features the classic tropes of the genre, femme fatales, desperate men and a cityscape that threatens to swallow up its characters. Awarded Best Italian Film at the Venice Film Festival and newly restored in 4K, it is presented on home video for the first time outside of Italy.
