OF THE INFAMOUS ANTHOLOGY SERIES
DIRECTED BY LAMBERTO BAVA
In the late ‘80s, Lamberto Bava agreed to direct a four-part anthology series for Italian TV under the title High Tension. But when executives saw the completed features’ extreme themes and graphic violence, their broadcast was blocked for nearly a decade and they have only existed as grey market bootlegs since. Severin Films now presents their Official Worldwide Blu-ray Premiere: Tomas Arana stars as a horror director stalked by evil forces in THE PRINCE OF TERROR, written by Dardano Sacchetti and featuring grisly FX by Sergio Stivaletti. In THE MAN WHO WOULDN’T DIE, adapted
from a short story by poliziotteschi novelist Giorgio Scerbanenco, the survivor of a home invasion seeks vengeance. Daria Nicolodi stars in SCHOOL OF FEAR about a student academy with a dark secret. And in the giallo shocker EYE WITNESS, Barbara Cupisti stars as a blind woman who sees a murder. All four films are scanned in 2K from the original camera negatives with Italian and first-time ever English tracks, plus over 5 hours of Special Features and a Soundtrack CD curated by Simon Boswell featuring music from High Tension, THE MASK OF SATAN, DEMONS 2, DELIRIUM and more.

PLUS BONUS BOSWELL/BAVA SOUNDTRACK CD
Disc 1: THE PRINCE OF TERROR
For the first film in the series, director Lamberto Bava and screenwriter Dardano Sacchetti (THE BEYOND, DEMONS) delivered “a wild ride” (Euro Fever) that’s part home-invasion thriller, part supernatural shocker and one totally over-the-top gorehound blast: ‘Prince of Terror’ Vincent Omen (Tomas Arana of THE CHURCH and THE SECT) is cinema’s top horror director. But when a disgruntled screenwriter – a no-holds-barred performance by David Brandon of STAGEFRIGHT – attacks Omen and his family in their secluded villa, it will unleash a grisly maelstrom of graphic brutality courtesy of special effects maestro Sergio Stivaletti (THE MASK OF SATAN, CEMETERY MAN). Carole André (YOR: THE HUNTER FROM THE FUTURE) co-stars in “one of the rarest of Bava’s ‘80s horrors” (The Bloody Pit of Horror), now scanned in 2K from the original camera negative with a first time-ever English language track.

Disc 2: THE MAN WHO WOULDN’T DIE
In the early ‘70s, the legendary Mario Bava began adapting a savage short story by poliziotteschi novelist Giorgio Scerbanenco (CALIBER 9) for a film project. When Lamberto Bava eventually directed it in 1989 – from a screenplay by Gianfranco Clerici (HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK, THE NEW YORK RIPPER) – Italian TV refused to broadcast the violent thriller for nearly 20 years: After an art heist in a luxury villa goes horrifically wrong, a gang member (Gino Concari of Andrea Bianchi’s MASSACRE) left for dead will hunt down his accomplices in a mission of brutal revenge. Keith Van Hoven (Fulci’s THE HOUSE OF CLOCKS), Lino Salemme (DEMONS) and Martine Brochard (THE VIOLENT PROFESSIONALS) co-star in “the rarest film in the High Tension series” (FilmTV), now scanned in 2K from the original camera negative with a first time-ever English language track.

Stefano De Sando (Bava/Cozzi’s Night Shift) co-stars in this “absolutely wild” (B&S About Movies) shocker, now scanned in 2K from the original camera negative with a first time-ever English language track.

Mary Sellers (THE MASK OF SATAN), Alessio Orano (LISA AND THE DEVIL) and Antonella Antinori (BURIAL GROUND) co-star in “one of the best Bava films ever” (ItaloCinema), now scanned in 2K from the original camera negative with a first time-ever English language track.

Nachlesen kann man das hier und auf deutsch auch hier.Arrow Films has struck a deal with Shout! Studios to release 156 Hong Kong titles in the UK, including seminal classics by John Woo and Tsui Hark.
It follows the acquisition of the Golden Princess film library by US outfit Shout! Studios in January, which comprised worldwide rights (excluding some Asian territories) to the renowned catalogue of titles.
While Shout! will handle the US release of the films, both on physical media and through streaming platform Shout! TV, Arrow Films has acquired UK rights to the features.
Produced during the golden age of Hong Kong cinema in the 1980s and 1990s, the titles include John Woo action classics Hard Boiled, the A Better Tomorrow trilogy, The Killer, Once A Thief and Bullet In The Head.
Further titles starring Chow Yun-fat include City On Fire, Prison On Fire , Full Contact, Peace Hotel and All About Ah-Long.
Films from renowned directors in the catalogue include Tsui Hark’s Peking Opera Blues. Tony Ching’s A Chinese Ghost Story trilogy, Eric Tsang’s Aces Go Places, Andrew Kam and Johnnie To’s The Big Heat and Alex Law’s Now You See It, Now You Don’t.
Arrow Films plan to mount theatrical re-releases of select titles such as Hard Boiled and The Killer. Last month, Shout! revealed it has collaborated with the Hong Kong Film Archives to remaster several titles in 4K UHD, scanned from the original camera negatives.
Arrow said the deal would mark the first time some of the films had been released in the UK with others receiving fresh releases after years of being out of physical circulation. The firm is targeting 2026 for the first wave of titles, released through its Arrow Video label.
The deal was negotiated by Arrow Films’ acquisitions head Cliff MacMillan and Shout! Studios’ Mark Balsam.

Diese Lamberto-Bava-Box wirkt auf mich sehr viel interessanter als die "Brivido Giallo"-Box von Cauldron, die mit Graveyard Disturbance, Dinner with the Vampire, The Ogre und Until Death zum Großteil ziemliche Heuler zu bieten hat.jogiwan hat geschrieben: ↑Fr 23. Mai 2025, 19:50 hui... von Severin
