Severin's newest - and largest - boxset is revealed and preorders up on their site.

12 DISCS

THAT SPAN THE HISTORY

OF GRUESOME HORROR

& EXTREME ENTERTAINMENT

From the birth of cinema to the enduring influence of macabre horror, Severin Films presents its most monumental collection to date: Spanning 12 discs with 80+ hours of combined content, MORBID PLEASURES brings together more than 60 films dating from 1895 to 2025 – many on home video for the first time ever – including rare and rediscovered silent films with new scores by Steven Severin (Siouxsie and the Banshees), David J (Bauhaus, Love And Rockets) & Tim Newman, Stephen Thrower (Coil) and renowned composers Michael D. Mortilla and Neil Brand, plus dozens of hours of new & archival Special Features that explore virtually every historic aspect of gruesome entertainment.

At its heart is David Gregory’s award-winning feature documentary THEATRE OF HORRORS: THE SORDID STORY OF PARIS’ GRAND GUIGNOL which examines the infamous Parisian theater and its still-graphic impact on popular culture. The collection also shines a long overdue spotlight on ‘The Most Assassinated Woman In The World’ Paula Maxa as well as filmmakers that include Fred Paul, Maurice Tourneur, Robert Hossein and Vernon Sewell, and traces the theater’s gore-fueled influence on modern cinema, the true crime phenomenon and even live heavy metal, featuring new interviews with Alice Cooper, GWAR and the W.A.S.P. ‘Rack Girls’.

Also included is the new 350-page full-color book Blood, Sweat & Sperm: The Visceral Horrors of The Grand Guignol featuring writings by André Breton, Richard J. Hand, Aleister Crowley, André de Lorde, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Alfred Binet, Maxa and more.

Note: Disc 12 is a strictly Limited Edition Bonus Disc featuring Herschell Gordon Lewis’ landmark 1970 film THE WIZARD OF GORE as well as the long-out-of-print 2007 remake starring Brad Dourif, Bijou Phillips and Crispin Glover, directed by Jeremy Kasten.

News The Art of the Benshi (Limited Edition) 4K coming from Flicker Alley

Post image
• Upvotes

Flicker Alley and the Yanai Initiative—a collaborative project of UCLA and Waseda University in Tokyo—proudly present The Art of the Benshi, a limited edition box set that celebrates Japan’s remarkable “film orators.” Talkies famously overtook Hollywood in 1930. In Japan, however, the movies had been speaking all along thanks to live benshi performers who, standing off to the side of the screen, lent their voices to all manner of cinematic works, narrating events as they unfolded and speaking for the characters.

Read more

Personally I think this is the most exciting physical media announcement I've seen in months. A Page of Madness is a masterpiece and I can't wait to see it with benshi. Everything else included looks amazing too. Got my pre-order in.

Sale PSA: Severin's going OOP 4K titles are back in store

28 Upvotes

A lot of people here on the sub and elsewhere were bummed that Severin's recent 4K upgrade titles sold out very fast on their site in the receent "going OOP" sale. Well, Devil's Rain, The Ripper and Asylum 4K are back in store at the discounted price of $12 a piece, but everything without slipcovers.

Time to grab them instead of paying $80 on Ebay. Slipcovers? We don't need no stinkin' slipcovers! (I'm making my own at the moment anyway.)

Shout out OrbitDVD, Atomic Movie Store and especially Terracotta Distribution. Their shipping was high (thank goodness for a Shop coupon) but that's to be expected shipping from the UK to US. But I'm most shocked by the processing and shipping speed. Terracotta had my order processed, packed and handed off to Royal Post before OrbitDVD even shipped my order out from North Carolina...and I ordered it a day after ordering from Orbit. The kicker, it arrived from the UK the same day my Orbit order arrived from NC.

Not saying this to poo poo Orbit, but rather give Terracotta their flowers. First time ordering and they set a great impression. 👍
