German label Camera Obscura has announced that it is preparing a 4K Blu-ray release of Slava Tsukerman's
Liquid Sky (1982), starring Anne Carlisle, Paula E. Sheppard, Susan Doukas, Otto von Wernherr, and Bob Brady. The release is expected to arrive on the market later this year.
Description: Invisible aliens in a tiny flying saucer come to Earth looking for heroin. They land on top of a New York apartment inhabited by a drug dealer and her female, androgynous, bisexual nymphomaniac lover, a fashion model. The aliens soon find the human pheromones created in the brain during orgasm preferable to heroin, and the model's casual sex partners begin to disappear. This increasingly bizarre scenario is observed by a lonely woman in the building across the street, a German scientist who is following the aliens, and an equally androgynous, drug-addicted male model. (Both models are played by Anne Carlisle, in a dual role).

The label has also confirmed that it will bring to Blu-ray Muscha's cult film
Decoder (1984), starring FM Einheit, William Rice, Christiane Felscherinow, Britzhold Baron De Belle, and Matthias Fuchs. The release is expected to arrive on the market later this year.
Description: FM has discovered something incredible in the monotonous 'muzak' played through the fast food restaurant H Burger's speaker system: the tracks are laced with subliminal messages designed to ensure complacency and consumerism. Experimenting with his discovery, FM soon realizes that by changing the type of music played he can manifest a whole range of emotional responses and stir up the populace from their consumerist subordination. But as the diners are emotionally awakened, they become more and more prone to rioting and general social unrest, which puts FM in an increasingly dangerous position, especially when the sinister and mysterious organization behind the plot to keep the public complacent takes an interest in finding and stopping him...
