British distributors 88 Films will add a number of new titles to their Blu-ray catalog this summer. Amongst them are Lamberto Bava's
A Blade in the Dark (1983), Sergio Garrone's
SS Experiment Camp (1976), and Umberto Lenzi's
Man From Deep River (1972).
Man from Deep River
A photographer in the rain forest is captured by wild natives, and after months of living with them, he marries the chief's daughter and helps protect the village from a vicious cannibal tribe. STREET DATE: SEPTEMBER 28.
SS Experiment Camp
In a secret camp in Nazi Germany, cruel experiments are conducted for "the selection and improvement of the Race." Female prisoners are forcibly mated with German soldiers and subjected to strange sexual tests. Nazi Sergeant Kruber falls in love with a camp inmate, the lovely French prostitute Mirelle. When Kruber is forced to participate in a perverse operation ordered but the camp's commandant, the Sergeant joins forces with the female inmates to exact revenge on their sadistic overload. STREET DATE: SEPTEMBER 21.
Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals
While doing undercover work in a mental hospital, Emanuelle discovers a girl who seems to have been raised by a tribe of amazonian cannibals. Intrigued, Emanuelle and friends travel deep into the Amazon jungle, where they find that the supposedly extinct tribe of cannibals is still very much alive, and Emanuelle and her party are not welcome visitors. STREET DATE: AUGUST 17.
Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man
Before he was worshipped as an auteur of video nasty violence, the notorious Ruggero Deodato, creator of CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST and HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK, helmed perhaps his most potent pot-boiler: LIVE LIKE A COP, DIE LIKE A MAN. An edgy, exciting and extravagantly plotted police-thriller, this masterpiece of high-octane action opens with a road-ripping race around Rome that makes THE FRENCH CONNECTION look positively lightweight in comparison! Inspired by the vigilante violence of DIRTY HARRY, Deodato's crowning crime-shocker stars the heavyweight pair of Ray Lovelock (THE LIVING DEAD AT THE MANCHESTER MORGUE) and Marc Porel (Fulci's THE PSYCHIC) as two police investigators who are not above taking the law into their own hands. Unleashed, uncut and uncensored, by 88 Films, this breathtaking babes 'n' bullets blockbuster is an essential acquisition for Deodato-philes and lovers of classic Italian genre cinema alike! STREET DATE: AUGUST 17.
