Special SPECIAL, an offbeat dark comedy, follows the journey of Les Franken played by Michael Rapaport (Hitch, Grilled) as a superhero for our chemically enhanced time. Les Franken, a lonely parking enforcement officer who enjoys reading comic books, decides to take part in a clinical trial for a new and exciting antidepressant called 'Special'. An unexpected side effect of the drug renders him with superpowers - or so he thinks. While his doctor dismisses the drug's side effects as an adverse psychological reaction to the medication, Les takes his cue from the comics he reads to embrace his newfound powers and quits his job to devote his life to fighting evil, real or imagined. Les is an every day kind of superhero, the apparently gifted and yet disturbed human who wishes to save the world. Writers Hal Haberman and Jeremy Passmore based some of the characters on friends from their youth and use their experiences of drug use, which include the use of anti-depressant medication, in the months leading up to production. www.specialthemovie.co.uk Out Now on Region 2 UK DVD only!

Grizzly Man For 13 summers amateur grizzly bear expert, Timothy Treadwell, lived in an area of Katami National Park, so heavily populated with Grizzly Bears that it has become known as The Grizzly Maze. In October 2003, Treadwells remains, along with those of his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, were discovered near their campsite in the Alaskan Reserve. They had been mauled and devoured by a grizzly bear. While he paid the perhaps inevitable price for his work, the 100 hours of footage Treadwell shot over this period is among the most incredible, stunning and moving ever committed to film. It is from this footage that Herzog sculpted Grizzly Man, a film that uncovers as much about human nature as it does the bears Treadwell set out to study.

Eyes of Crystal “The finest giallo thriller since Dario Argentos Opera keeps you glued to the screen a riveting murder mystery featuring a killer with a disturbing past and a decidedly Latin flair doesn't flinch from depicting the full barbarity of murder” DVD Times A vicious serial killer is on the loose slaughtering with no mercy but much macabre creativity. For the warped psychopath is removing different body parts on each victim, replacing them with the corresponding part from life-size antique Italian dolls. Hard-bitten Inspector Giacomo Amaldi (Luigi Lo Cascio) is convinced the assassin is gruesomely building the perfect mate. But as the bloody body count continues he comes face to face with the shocking moral decay of his city as well as the ghosts of his own grisly past. With his new girlfriend Giuditta (Lucia Jimιnez) in mortal danger, can Amaldi fit the pieces of the terrifying puzzle together in time? Visually, the film is at its best when the tension is racked up and Puglielli is given free reign to indulge some of the jump cutting and surreal dream inserts that marked his early-career shorts. The montage of the initial triple-murder is a textbook style exercise, and Puglielli and cinematographer Luca Coassin play entertainingly with the glass eye metaphor, framing shots in the eyes of stuffed animals and dolls, bouncing blurred views off mirrors, building an atmosphere of menace and threat that is underscored by Francesc Geners brooding electronic-Medieval soundtrack. Flesh old, young, shaved, lacerated, stitched is another underlying obsession. www.frightfestpresents.co.uk Out Now on Region 2 UK DVD only! Buy Now! |
