The Untold Story

The Untold Story

Coming to Blu-ray and DVD on October 13th
 

Unearthed Films is proud to release, restored for the first time in the US, the most notorious Category 3 film out of Hong Kong... A true masterpiece of horror cinema that once seen, can never be forgotten.

In 1978 in Hong Kong, a grisly murder takes place. Eight years later on a Macao beach, kids discover the severed hands of a fresh victim. A squadron of coarse, happy-go-lucky cops investigate and suspicion falls on Wong Chi Hang, the new owner of The Eight Immortals Restaurant famous for its delicious pork buns. The hands belong to the missing mother of the restaurant's former owner who has disappeared along with the rest of his family. Staff at the restaurant continue to go missing but the police can't find any hard evidence that Wong is responsible. When he can't produce a bill of sale proving his purchase of the restaurant, Wong is arrested and the police try to torture him into a confession. Can they make him talk? And what was in those famous pork buns?

Written by and starring Danny Lee (CITY ON FIRE, DR. LAMB), Anthony Wong (THE MUMMY: TOMB OF THE DRAGON EMPEROR, IP MAN: THE FINAL FIGHT, EBOLA SYNDROME, HARD BOILED) and directed by Herman Yau (EBOLA SYNDROME, TAXI HUNTER). Anthony Wong was awarded the Hong Kong Best Actor Award for his performance in THE EIGHT IMMORTALS RESTAURANT: THE UNTOLD STORY. Unearthed Films is proud to release the most notorious Category 3 film ever produced in Hong Kong! Comedic, intense and downright unforgivable, THE UNTOLD STORY is truly a masterpiece of horror cinema that once seen, can never be forgotten.

Just Because...Stylish

Fashion, But Is It Art?
Gwen Stefani

Just Because it's Monday and we could all use a pick me up, Just Because The Voice is coming back & Just Because she's so stylish after all - It's Gwen Stefani at a photo shoot in Beverly Hills!

Gwen is like an oasis amidst chaos and as per usual is ever so stylish, cool and collected at a photo shoot in the Hills of Beverly.

Hey she may not be no Hollaback Girl, but she is certainly an icon of style. 

Thus I am starting off your week with the always stunning Gwen and her sense of fashion as inspiration and fun. Inspiration for what you might ask? I said you might ask, but perhaps you might not.

Inspiration to seize the week, bridle it in and make it submit to the way you want it to be. The week is yours, now just do it!

Happy Anniversary "X"


 Friday, September 25th Marks the 30th Anniversary Of The Release Of INXS Seventh Studio Album ‘X’

Look Who Just Turned 30!!!

Founding Member Andrew Farriss Recalls Massive Success of Album 
Singer/Songwriter Andrew Farriss celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the multi-platinum selling album 'X,' released on this day 30 years ago from the world-renowned band, INXS. Farriss, a founding member of the band, played keyboard and provided backing vocals and other instrumentation. With INXS, he has sold over 60 million records, received multiple Grammy nominations, and an induction into the ARIA Hall Of Fame in 2001. 'X,' INXS’s 7th studio album, was released on September 25th in 1990.

“I can’t believe it’s been 30 years since the release of the ‘X’ album,” shares Farriss. “As INXS, we knew we had to have the right songs to follow up on the massive success of our previous album ‘KICK’. I love the energy of the ‘X’ album. My favorite songs are still “Suicide Blonde,” “Disappear,” “Bitter Tears,” “Who Pays The Price,” and “Hear That Sound,” plus having blues music legend Charlie Musselwhite playing on the ‘X’ album with us was awesome!”

'X' served to further the tremendous success achieved by the band with singles such as "Suicide Blonde" and "Disappear". Mystify, a documentary released in March of 2019 details the life and untimely death of INXS frontman Michael Hutchence in a one-night U.S theatre showing. The documentary remembers Hutchence at his most vulnerable and artistic states. For more information and to view the 'Mystify' trailer visit YouTube and Rolling Stone.

Never Tear Us Apart: The Untold Story of INXS, released in 2014, gives fans an inside look at what unique star qualities carried INXS from Australian pubs to sold-out stadium tours around the world. In July of 1991, the band sold out Wembley Stadium in the UK, playing the show of their lives to over 74,000 fans. The concert was captured by over a dozen film cameras and the original audio and video were simultaneously remastered from the original 35mm film and re-released in 4K UHD and other digital and disc formats earlier this year. For more on this release, read Jon Blistein's coverage in Rolling Stone.

A true testament to the timelessness of 'X' lies within the millions of people who still revisit it’s signature sound 30 years later. Outside of INXS, Farriss continues to embark on a solo career and bring healing music to long time fans. 'Love Makes The World,' Farriss’s 5 song EP is to be released on October 2, 2020 through BMG worldwide.

It's "National Comic Book Day" Woot!

Yee Haw!
Wonder Woman

When I was growing up I used to be an avid Comic Book fan. As I got older not so much, but I still have fond memories of the hours of escape they provided me from the world. (given the current state of it perhaps I should go back to reading them) - My two favorites were Batman and Wonder Woman.

Thus you are bequeathed an image from the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984 to celebrate today, Yay! 

If you can't figure out why Wonder Woman read what I wrote above. It was supposed to come out in June but because of the pandemic it has bee postponed until Christmas day this year. Fingers crossed that it does not get bumped yet again, but I have a hunch it will 😟

That being stated I can't wait for it to actually premiere it's the only movie based on a Comic Book I want to, and will see coming up. As I stated I outgrew my fascination with them and thus I see few films based on them. "Yes" I am discerning.

T.G.I.F. Minions!

You Are Always On My Mind
Michael Shinafelt

Well the scale tipping point has finally been reached, the time has come to focus and lose those pandemic pounds or be victim to gaining more of them and getting bigger. To think I was 50lbs lighter and in great shape this time last year...Good news is, I did it once, I can do it again!

Racist Genies come from a moonshine bottle

Am I the only person who loves Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy but does not like Schitt's Creek? 

There's not enough saliva in my mouth

Zendaya FTW, Yes!

Oh, that's so pervy...oink!
