Saga Of The Phoenix

On December 16th, 88 Films proudly presents the North American Blu-ray debut of the Hong Kong spiritual fantasy cult classic, Saga of the Phoenix, in a limited edition release featuring a brand new 2K restoration from the original negative loaded with bonus content.  

The Holy Maiden of Hell, Ashura (Gloria Yip, The Cat), is sentenced to reside for eternity inside a statue of a reclined Buddha after being caught practicing magic on Earth. She refuses her banishment because she can’t exist without the Sun. Abbott Ji Ku (Shintarô Katsu, Zatoichi and the One-Armed Swordsman) and High Abbess (Yuko Natori, Crest of Betrayal) give her seven last days on Earth. Master Peacock (Yuen Biao, Project A), Lucky Fruit (Abe Hiroshi, Godzilla 2000), and others are sent to keep her from breaking her promise to return and serve her punishment. Ashura might not be their only problem.  

Hell’s Concubine (Ngai Suet, Ghost Ballroom) orders her demonic squad to Earth to kidnap Ashura so she can drain her rival’s spirit and control other devils. Saga of the Phoenix is steeped in underworld intrigue and high-flying martial arts choreography, combined with quirky comedic moments. 

Co-directed by Lam Nai Choi (Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky) and Lau Shut-Yue (Tales of the Flying Fox), Saga of the Phoenix is a unique mix of outrageous mystical fantasy and martial arts action. The characters trade blows that defy gravity, battle giant stone dogs, and unleash massive fireballs. And at the center of it all is a cartoonishly adorable genie who befriends Ashura, until the Hell’s Concubine twists him into a soul sucking creature, pushing the film’s fantasy into darker territory. 

The special features include the remastered original Cantonese monaural soundtrack; optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing; a limited edition rigid slip case; a 40 page perfect bound book; a limited edition premium artcard; audio commentary by Frank Djeng and F.J. Desanto; alternate Japanese footage; an image gallery; and the original

O’Neil and the Turtles discover that the terrorizing criminals are members of the villainous masked Foot Clan, led by the diabolical Shredder. Can Turtle Power clean up the Big Apple? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze exposes the substance that caused the Turtles and Splinter to transform. There’s only one last canister of the Ooze at Techno Global Research Industries. Shredder plans to create new vicious mutants with this final dose if the Turtles can’t stop him. During a fight at a nightclub, the Turtles and Fist swap blows while Vanilla Ice dances and busts out “Ninja Rap.” Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III transports the heroes in both time and space. April O’Neil (Paige Turco, The Stepfather) buys an ancient golden scepter at a flea market. As she shows it off to Splinter and the Turtles, the device glows and projects April back to feudal Japan. She’s declared a witch by the wicked Lord Norinaga (Sab Shimono, Southland Tales). The Turtles must travel back to save April and stop a samurai battle.

"Outland"

On November 4, the Sci-fi thriller Outland makes its universal 4K UHD debut. Writer-director Peter Hyams (2010: The Year We Make Contact) combines elements of a classic Western and Film Noir in a gripping drama that takes place in outer space. Outland features a brand new 4K restoration from the original 35mm camera negative by Arrow Films. The Limited Edition release is packed with hours of special features, collectible packaging, and newly commissioned extras.

Federal marshal William O'Niel (Sean Connery, The Untouchables) receives an assignment at a titanium mining operation on Io, a moon of Jupiter. This is a hostile environment where miners in spacesuits work on the harsh rocky surface in 14-hour shifts. There’s not much to do inside the climate controlled outpost besides play racquetball, hang out at a gentleman’s club, and spend their pay in a brothel, all of which are overseen by Mark Sheppard (Peter Boyle, Young Frankenstein). The miners are under a lot of pressure to hit quotas. A few have snapped, exposed themselves to the moon’s atmosphere, and suffered horrible deaths. The company blames the incidents on mental breakdowns. O’Niel suspects there is more to the story and enlists the unwilling help of Dr. Lazarus (Frances Sternhagen, Misery). They discover a dangerous stimulant in the blood of a deceased worker, which keeps the miners working long hours for months on end and ultimately leads to psychotic episodes. Can O’Niel break up the drug ring responsible for the deaths?

"Raw Meat"

On September 30th, Blue Underground proudly presents the world premiere of the British cannibal classic Raw Meat (AKA Death Line) on 4K UHD + Blu-ray, packed with bonus content. The film is presented in a brand-new 4K restoration from the original uncensored camera negative, with Dolby Vision HDR and a new Dolby Atmos audio mix. The film will also be available on Blu-ray and DVD. 

During a late-night ride on the London Underground, Patricia Wilson (Sharon Gurney, Women in Love) and her boyfriend Alex Campbell (David Ladd, Jonathan Livingston Seagull) find James Manfred, OBE (James Cossins, The Man with the Golden Gun) passed out on the steps to the Russell Square Station. When they fetch a police officer to help, the body disappears. Inspector Calhoun (Donald Pleasence, Halloween) and Detective Sergeant Rogers (Norman Rossington, A Hard Day’s Night) investigate, and it appears the disappearance is tied to the urban legend of workers trapped in a tunnel collapse when the Underground was being built. To survive deep under the streets, the workers reportedly resorted to cannibalism. Are their descendants roaming the Tube still looking for victims?

The Cat

On August 26th, 88 Films proudly presents the North American Blu-ray debut of the Hong Kong Sci-Fi cult classic, The Cat, in a limited edition release featuring a high-definition transfer loaded with bonus content. 

Li Tung (Lawrence Lau, Bullet in the Head) is unable to sleep due to his noisy upstairs neighbors. When he goes to confront them, he encounters an old man (Siu-ming Lau, A Better Tomorrow II), a young woman (Gloria Yip, Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky), and a mysterious black cat. The next morning, the trio vanish, leaving behind a startling surprise in a pile of newspapers for Tung to uncover. As the police investigate, Inspector Wang Chieh-Mei (Philip Kwok, Master of the Flying Guillotine) invites Tung to dinner at the home of bestselling novelist Wisely (Waise Lee, A Better Tomorrow) and his companion Pai So (Christine Ng, Police Story II). Intrigued by the bizarre tale, Wisely spins a story: the woman and the cat are from outer space, here to stop an alien life form known as The Star Killer—an entity capable of possessing human bodies. But is Wisely really making up a story or recounting his adventure with the extraterrestrials?  

Director Ngai Choi Lam (Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky, Erotic Ghost Story) unleashes a cosmic blend of sci-fi and action, complete with a gravity-defying junkyard battle between a cat and a dog, and a fiery showdown in a swimming pool.

“Arguably, the craziest, Chinese science fiction movie ever made (which is saying something), The Cat is packed full of jaw-dropping weirdness.”  —Andrew Pragasam, The Spinning Image
