88 Films is now taking pre-orders for their upcoming blu-ray release of Joe D’Amato’s notorious ‘video nasty’ Anthropophagous. With a release date of 7/20/2015, Anthropophagous can only be ordered from 88 Films directly and all pre-orders will receive a gloss UV finish O-Card with the original banned artwork plus 4 collectible postcards.
Synopsis:
A group of unprepared tourists arrive on a desolate Mediterranean island – only to find themselves stalked by a silent cannibalistic Neanderthal! Featuring gory special effects, that convinced some British moral guardians that Anthropophagous was a legitimate ‘snuff movie’, there is little doubting that this timeless terror totem still holds up today. Also boasting a cast of genre legends, such as Tisa Farrow (Zombie Flesh Eaters), Zora Kerova (Cannibal Ferox) and George Eastman (Rabid Dogs), 88 Films is proud to present Anthropophagous, fully uncut and uncensored, and re-mastered for its worldwide HD debut!
Also includes the feature length documentary 42nd Street Memories: The Rise and Fall of America’s Most Notorious Block!
What better accompaniment to a certified grindhouse classic like Anthropophagous than this long-awaited expose of New York’s notorious den of sex, sin and cinema? Many a movie made its mark in one of Manhattan’s long-demolished exploitation establishments – and 42nd Street Memories tells the story of the good old days of big city slime, sweat and sleaze. Directed by Calum Waddell and featuring an esteemed list of interviewees, including Joe Dante (Gremlins), Frank Henenlotter (Basket Case), Larry Cohen (Q, The Winged Serpent), William Lustig (Maniac), adult performer Veronica Hart, author John Skipp and many more – this is the last word on the golden era of the world’s most celebrated sprawl of film theatres.
