THE PERFECT MURDER (1993)
English subtitles, letterboxed print.
A terrific thriller from Norway about an actress, who looks like Greta Garbo, starring in a film about a woman serial killer obsessed with Greta Garbo (reality and fantasy mix quite often in this film!). When the director begins receiving weird messages and a real female serial killer begins acting out the screenplay, you have to wonder if the actress is taking her part too seriously. Well directed, great score, a beautiful lead actress and nudity, all mix to make this one worth a look

Excellent French thriller with an allstar cast and it marks the debut of director Costa Gravas. Yves Montand plays a world weary cop investigating the murder of a woman inside a sleeping car on the train. Pretty soon, the other people in the compartment are also turning up dead. Very much in the style of an Italian Giallo, the B&W cinematography really adds to the film's mood. Also starring Jean Louis Trintignant, Simone Signoret and Michel Piccoli. The final car chase complete with surf guitar score is a riot.

Here's a Jess Franco film thought to be lost.

Unfortunately it's guarded by Zombies from the 3rd Reich.
TOPLINE (1988)
Franco Nero, Deborah Moore, George Kennedy, William Berger
Stupid title for this action film that halfway in turns into a ripoff of THE TERMINATOR and ALIEN. Franco Nero stars as an alcoholic journalist trying for a big story about the South American drug wars. Instead he finds a spaceship, robot and monster.

VOICES (1979)

VOODOO PASSION (1977)
Vicky Adams, Jack Taylor, Karine Gambier
English language version of Jesus Franco's DER RUF DER BLONDEN GODDESS, is one of the Great Man's sleaziest films.
