| Naked Lunch
|
(1991 David Cronenberg)
An inspired synthesis of William S. Burroughs celebrated, cult novel and elements of the writer's biography, "Naked Lunch" is a visceral viewing experience now for the first time.
As you might expect from the director of "Videodrome", "Crash" and "The Fly", the film weaves an inventive fantasy concerning the creative process, centering on writer William Lee (Peter Weller). Addicted to the bug poison with which he earns a living as an exterminator, a party routine ends in the death of his wife Joan (Judy Davis) and forces Lee to flee to Interzone, an imaginatively demented version of Tangier, where his latent subconscious begins to assume control.

| Night of the Living Dead
|
(1968 George A Romero)
A deceptively simple tale of a group of strangers trapped in a farmhouse who find themselves fending off a horde of recently dead, flesh-eating ghouls, Romero's claustrophobic vision of a late-1960s America literally tearing itself apart rewrote the rules of the horror genre, combined gruesome gore with acute social commentary, and quietly broke ground by casting a black actor (Duane Jones) in its lead role. Stark, haunting, and more relevant than ever, 'Night of the Living Dead' is back.

(1982 Paolo & Vittorio Taviani)
originaltitel: La Notte di San Lorenzo
It's the summer of 1944, after the fall of Mussolini. As the Germans take control of Italy from the north and the Allies do the same from the south, ordinary Italians face a deadly conflict of loyalties. Paolo and Vittorio Taviani lived through this as teenagers, and they later turned their memories and those of countless compatriots into this extraordinarily rich and vivid evocation of the most terrifying time in their native Tuscany's history, where even the most respected authority figures can no longer be trusted and seemingly throwaway decisions can prove fatal. The Tavianis' creative masterstroke was to present all this through the eyes of a six-year-old girl, who despite the death and destruction around her is having the most exciting time of her life.

| Nightmare on Elm Street / Collection
|
The flagship horror film series of the 1980s was the "Elm Street" cycle.
A ghost story about a murdered murderer who can haunt the night terrors of the children of the mob who burned him to death, "A Nightmare on Elm Street" is the ultimate instance of horror taking its tone from a bad dream. Freddy Krueger is the 80s monster par excellence, a razor-fingered, scarfaced pervert in a hideous jumper and battered hat, lurking in the shadows of the unconscious.
This box set contains all seven movies in the series.

| No Country for Old Men
|
(2007 Ethan Coen)
The Coen Brothers adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's praised novel is a staggering masterpiece.
In this almost impossibly faithful adaptation, the film takes place in a small Texas border town in 1980. Sheriff Bell (Tommy Lee Jones) has ruled the land for years without the use of a gun, but a new brand of reckless lawlessness has taken over his town. Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) is an innocent Everyman with a devoted wife, Carla Jean (Kelly Macdonald), but when he stumbles across a drug deal gone deadly and finds two million dollars, he's determined to keep it for himself. There's only one problem. He's being pursued by one of the most amoral, evil psychopaths that the big screen has ever seen. Wearing an absurd haircut and brandishing a pressurized weapon that's used to murder cattle, Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem) creeps forward on his mission to track Moss down and return the money to its rightful owners to save his own skin. As the tension mounts, the body count begins to rise, confirming Sheriff Bell's inability to battle this new wave of modern brutality.
