Arrow Video Channel In March Will Be Inventive And Chilling

Spring is very near with March arriving in a couple of weeks. ‘Better’ weather awaits us, at ARROW Video Channel we have something inventive and chilling await us.

The new month will have a chilling ghost story, a Fulci masterwork in 4K, a rediscovered erotic gem from Japan, some choice Eighties chillers. Also horror directors Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer choose their scary ARROW favourites!.

First off , exclusively in the UK, I Will Never Leave You Alone, a nerve-wracking exploration of trauma from an exciting new voice in American independent horror. Writer and director DW Medoff’s innovative, atmospheric and chilling take on the haunted house formula is a surreal nightmare where the psychological and the supernatural collide to terrifying effect.

Then there’s Play It Cool, a chic and erotically charged drama starring popular Japanese singer of the day Mari Atsumi as a college girl negotiating her way through the male-dominated hierarchies of Tokyo’s seductive but treacherous nightclub culture. ARROW is proud to present this little-seen gem by one of Japan’s most highly regarded directors of the 1960s, Yasuzō Masumura (Giants and Toys, Irezumi), a filmmaker known for his social satires and powerful portrayals of women.

Lucio Fulci‘s Don’t Torture a Duckling is coming next month in sparkling 4K. From the godfather of gore (The Psychic, The Beyond), comes his 1972 masterpiece, and one of the most powerful and unsettling giallo thrillers ever produced. Starring Florinda Bolkan (A Lizard in a Woman’s Skin), Tomas Milian (The Four of the Apocalypse) and Barbara Bouchet (The Red Queen Kills Seven Times), the film was deemed shocking at the time for its brutal violence, depiction of the Catholic Church and themes of child murder and paedophilia. It is widely regarded today as Fulci’s greatest film, rivalling the best of his close rival Dario Argento.

The month brings more horror, with Mirror Mirror, featuring genre favourites Karen Black and Yvonne De Carlo; onstage carnage in Blood Theatre from Hobgoblins director Rick Sloane; the superbly entertaining Mausoleum, with an unforgettably frightening Bobbie Bresee and featuring superb practical effects from John Buechler (From Beyond); and Rick Roessler’s slasher favourite Slaughterhouse.

Also streaming in March: South Korean crime thriller Beasts Clawing at Straws starring The Housemaid’s Jeon Do-yeon and Jung Woo-sung from The Good The Bad And The Weird.

Most Haunted, a collection of cult films full of our most ghost-infested homes, including I Will Never Leave You Alone, A Ghost Waits, and Double Face.

Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer Selects, where the co-writers and directors of the superbly sinister Hollywood-set Starry Eyes and the co-directors of the hit 2019 adaptation of Stephen King‘s Pet Sematary choose their favourites from the Arrow catalogue, including The Gore Gore Girls, My Sweet Satan, and Deadbeat at Dawn.
