March 2017 promises some great things from Arrow Video, with five amazing releases tailor made for cult and horror fans.
First out is Takashi Miike’s classic Dead or Alive Trilogy starring Riki Takeuchi and Show Aikawa
as their various characters deal drugs in Tokyo, put their yakuza
assassin skills to good use and even meet cyborg soldiers in future
Yokohama. Each film deftly shows off Miike at the height of his skills,
and weaves a captivating tapestry of crime, action and character study.
Next up is a franchise any horror fan around in the late 80s and early 90s will recognise: House: The Complete Collection,
which comes to Dual Format in a gorgeous 2K restoration of all four
films. With each film telling a different tale, and getting increasingly
bonkers as the series goes on (who can forget the singing pizza in House IV?), the House films are equal parts funny, scary and entertaining. As much a joy for fans of weird cinema as they are for horror lovers.
Arrow Video’s March 2017 slate also brings two giallo gems from Luciano Ercoli, starring his wife Nieves Navarro. Death Walks on High Heelsand Death Walks at Midnight
come to DVD and Blu-ray in beautiful 2K restorations that really show
off the murder set pieces and gorgeous stylisation of these two superior
gialli.
Last but not least sees not one, but two Limited Edition releases of Juan Piquer Simón’s slasher classic, Pieces arrive
on Dual Format. Both editions include brand new 4K restorations and two
versions of the film itself, as well as a host of fascinating special
features and a CD with the entire original score. The Arrow Store exclusive
version, which will be available to pre-order from early 2017, also
includes a Limited Edition 12” Vinyl of the original score, featuring
expanded artwork by Marc Schoenbach, and a 100-piece jigsaw puzzle
replica.
