Khoon Ki Pyaasi Daayan(1998)

Khoon Ki Pyaasi Daayan(1998)

K.K.P.D is a mixture of indian drama along with blackmagic and gore.Its a story about a struggling actress who comes to mumbai for her break but unfortunately her mother sells her to an impotent landlord who takes her to his haveli just to give it a try,but as usual all his attempts go in vain.Frustrated with this he approaches a baba who suggests him that in order to gain his fertility back he needs to slaughter a young girl.He instantly brings the wannabe actress girl to the baba's place and they slaughter her,the girl comesback from her grave and also brings one of her ghosts friends to help her take the revenge(watta freindhip!).The Ghost freind reminds me more of a polar bear,and the over makeup along with the pompy music just makes me wonder why am i watching it.


The only scene i watched this movie again and again as a kid was a rain song where one of the actress is wearing a see through kurta and she really looks hot in it.Technically the movie is excellent and even the budget is quite high ,but still bad script and poor editing holds it back from being a masterpiece.

KAGERO (Shimmering Heat) 1990

One of the last works by Master filmmaker, Gosha Hideo, this tale of a Lady Gambler and her epic game of chance with the mysterious expert 'Unmovable Tsune' puts her life on the line. As with all of Gosha's films there is intrigue, betrayal, sex, and awesome violence. Nakadai Tatsuya is perfect in his role, hiding a secret that can make his life a fiery Hell, and threatens to take everyone else with him! The beautiful Higuchi Kaneko is the star, though, giving a performance for the ages as she searches for vengeance while helping her brother fight off the Yakuza who have taken over the town.

Bleeders (1997)

Bleeders 1997, Starring Rutger Hauer, Roy Dupuis, Kristin Lehman, Jackie Burroughs, John Dunn-Hill, Joanna Noyes. Directed by Peter Svatek (Kingsborough Greenlight Pictures).

Peter Svatek is something of an unsung hero one of Cian B-film, cranking out perfectly competent little genre films for more than a decade with very little critical notice. After his early work on Cinepix's The Mystery of the Millon Dollar Hockey Puck, he graduated to straight-to-video fare like Sci-Fighters and Witchboard III, emerging as one of Canada's most dependable directors. Bleeders, a usually maligned creature feature based on a H.P. Lovecraft story and scripted by Alien scribe Dan O'Bannon, isn't his best work, but it does have the distinction of being the first horror film ever made in New Brunswick. A lengthy prologue to the film tells us about an incestuous 17th Century family known as the Van Dammes, whose rampant sister-swapping caused significant defects in their bloodline. 300 years later, John Strauss (Roy Dupuis, Rocket), a European cousin of the Van Dammes with a rare form of blood poisoning, arrives on his ancestral island with his wife and nurse (Kristin Lehman) to find out if there is a way to treat the disease. What John doesn't know is that the modern descendents of his family are still on the island, a race of mutated subterranean creatures who feed off of buried corpses.

Singapore Sling (1990) [DVD - Region 1]

Trapped in a Deadly Game of Torture and Murder!

A detective searches for his lost love and his travels lead him to two women living in a secluded country villa. When they find him, barely conscious and bleeding, he doesn't speak, so they nickname him "Singapore Sling". Their hospitality soon turns horrific as he discovers they may be a mentally deranged mother/daughter team interested in deadly sex and torturous games...and they also may be responsible for his lover's death. Wounded by a gunshot and imprisoned in a nightmare that he may never escape, "Singapore Sling" becomes the pawn in a deadly game of sexual domination, torture and murder.

Greek director Nikos Nikolaidis has created one of the most disturbing, gory and strangely beautiful cult films you will ever see...a haunting story of one man's search for love and the horrifying consequences of his actions. Synapse Films is proud to present Singapore Sling in a beautiful anamorphic widescreen transfer for the first time in North America.
