The New York Ripper
Synopsis: A blade-wielding psychopath is on the loose, turning The Big Apple bright red with the blood of beautiful young women. As NYPD detectives follow the trail of butchery from the decks of the Staten Island Ferry to the sex shows of Times Square, each brutal murder becomes a sadistic taunt. In the city that never sleeps, he's the killer that can't be stopped! Starring Jack Hedley, Almanta Suska, Howard Ross, Andrea Occhipinti, and Alexandra Delli Colli.
Two Evil Eyes
Synopsis: The masters of modern horror – George Romero and Dario Argento – bring you an unprecedented pair of shockers inspired by the tales of Edgar Allan Poe.
In Romero's
The Facts in the Case of Mr. Valdemar, a conniving wife (Adrienne Barbeau of
The Fog) and her lover use a hypnotic trance to embezzle a fortune from her dying husband, only to receive some chilling surprises from beyond the grave. Then in Argento's
The Black Cat, a deranged crime scene photographer (Harvey Keitel of
Reservoir Dogs) is driven to brutal acts of madness and murder by his girlfriend's new pet. But will this cunning feline deliver a final sickening twist of its own? Also starring Adrienne Barbeau, Ramy Zada, Bingo O'Malley, Jeff Howell, and E.G. Marshall.
