The American Genre Film Archive (AGFA) will bring to Blu-ray Natuk Baytan's action comedy
The Sword and the Claw (1975), starring Cüneyt Arkin, Bahar Erdeniz, Barbara Lake, and Charles Garret. The release will be available for purchase on January 23.
Synopsis: They took his money. They took his family. And now, they've taken his hands. But they can never take his revenge!
Exploding from the same hallucinogenic netherworld as the Turkish Star Wars,
The Sword and the Claw stars Turkish genre legend Cüneyt Arkin in his most iconic role. It's
Conan the Barbarian meets
The Three Stooges meets
Dolemite with more lo-fi bloodshed, pop-art visuals, and bizarro dubbing than the boundaries of reality can handle.
