Bloody Mary (2006)

Synopsis:
When a group of psychiatric hospital nurses invoke the spirit of Bloody Mary-a supposed urban myth-the slaughter begins. First, a young nursing assistant disappears, her body never found. Now, patients are turning up dead-battered beyond recognition, soaked in blood, their eyes ripped out. Mary's wrath has begun. Freed from her eternal prison behind the mirror's reflection, she unleashes a murderous, maniacal fury upon the asylum. Moving at will through mirrors, she strikes when her victims are unsuspecting, defenseless, and alone. Bloody Mary's legend is real, her vengeance is fatal, and to free her, all you have to do is say her name.

Young and Innocent (1937)

Synopsis:
Young and Innocent (U.S. title: The Girl Was Young) is a 1937 British film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and starring Nova Pilbeam, Derrick De Marney and John Longden. It is very loosely based on Josephine Tey's novel A Shilling for Candles (1936).

In the opening scene of the film, Christine Clay (Pamela Carme), a successful actress, argues passionately with her jealous ex-husband. He makes particular reference to Robert Tisdall, a young man staying near her at her retreat on the English coast. Christine slaps him several times across the face, but he hardly reacts, choosing instead to depart without a word.

The next morning, Robert Tisdall (Derrick De Marney) happens to be walking along the seaside cliffs when Christine's body washes ashore. He runs to get help and call the police, but two young swimmers arrive just in time to see him racing away from the corpse. A belt from his raincoat, which had just recently gone missing, is found next to the body, further implicating him in her strangling. He is subsequently arrested and becomes the main suspect, partly because of a large sum of money Christine left to him in her will, a gift he was unaware of. Saddled with a despondent barrister, Tisdall doubts if his innocence will ever be established. He elects to take advantage of a crowded courthouse and make his escape.

Tisdall coerces Erica Burgoyne (Nova Pilbeam), daughter of the local police Chief Constable, to give him a ride in her Morris car. Though she is initially unsure about her passenger, Burgoyne eventually becomes convinced of his innocence and elects to help him in any way that she can. They are eventually spotted together, forcing both to stay on the run. Tisdall tries to prove his innocence by tracking down the stolen coat.
The duo succeed in tracking down Old Will (Edward Rigby), a sociable china-mender and bum that was known to have received Tisdall's coat. He agrees to help them find the man who gave him the coat; unfortunately, all that Old Will can remember about the man is his distinctive eye twitch.

Upon searching the pockets of the coat, Erica finds a box of matches from the Grand Hotel, a place Tisdall has never been to. She is separated from the group, however, and taken in by the police. Upon realizing that his daughter has fully allied herself with the murder suspect, her father chooses to resign his position as Chief Constable rather than arrest her for assisting Tisdall. Nonetheless, Erica and Old Will go to the Grand Hotel together, hoping to find the true murderer. In a memorably long, continuous sequence, the camera moves forward through the hotel ballroom, finally focusing on the drummer in a dance band performing in blackface. Recognizing Old Will in the audience, and seeing policemen nearby (unaware that they have followed Old Will in the hopes of finding Tisdall), the man performs poorly due to fear and is berated by the musical conductor. A nervous breakdown, exacerbated by a drug he has been taking to try to control the twitching, causes the man to pass out in the middle of a performance, drawing the attention of Erica and the policemen. Immediately after being revived and confronted, he confesses his crime and begins laughing hysterically. In the end, Robert Tisdall and Erica Burgoyne are united, with Erica's father smiling benevolently.

SuicideGirls: Guide to Living (2009)

Synopsis:
The SuicideGirls are basically a bunch of strippers with tattoos, piercings, and "alternative" looks. However, if you've been to a strip club (or nightclub or drug treatment center) in the last ten years, you've probably seen plenty of young women with tattoos and piercings. These girls just have a lot more than average. Some of them kind remind me of a couple of my old girlfriends back in my punk rock days (and I still maintain it took a lot more guts to dress like this in Wyoming back in the 1980's than it does today when its practically mainstream fashion).

Only two survivors are found, Dunbar, and a badly wounded Kendall, the son of a high-profile Joint Chiefs of Staff official. Neither is willing to cooperate with Capt. Julia Osborne's investigation. So base commander Col. Bill Styles calls in ex-Ranger Hardy, an old friend and a persuasive interrogator. Osborne disapproves of Hardy who is on leave from the D.E.A. after having come under suspicion of accepting bribes from local drug traffickers. She is also uneasy when she learns that Hardy once trained under West and hates him almost as passionately as his current recruits.

Synopsis:
Antropophagus, released in the United Kingdom as Anthropophagous: The Beast and in the United States as Anthropophagus: The Grim Reaper, also known as Zombie 7: Grim Reaper, is a 1980 Italian horror film directed by Joe D'Amato and co-written by D'Amato and George Eastman, who also starred in the film.

Anthropophagous: The Beast was released in the United Kingdom in 1980 uncut by VFP. It soon became one of the infamous titles to feature on the government's Department of Public Prosecutions list (DPP), better known to the tabloid press as the "Video Nasty" list. It was later successfully prosecuted under the Obscene Publications Act in 1984. Anthropophagous: The Beast also saw another release in the UK, prior to its banning from a very small video company known as Videoshack. This release, although cut, is highly collectible among fans today due to its extremely scarce existence. The film would be released theatrically in America as The Grim Reaper around fall of 1981 from former independent distribution company Film Ventures International in a heavily edited version to get an R rating and dubbed.

Nazis: The Occult Conspiracy (1998)

Synopsis:
The legacy of the Nazis is with us today. The British and US governments took over where the Nazis left off in their search for occult knowledge and technology. They have been corrupted by the same spirit. In Ezekiel God speaks about Israel having the spirit of idolatry which she was polluted by in Egypt in her youth. This spirit showed itself later when Israel lusted after the gods of Babylon and Assyria who in turn were used to destroy her. When America incorporated all the Nazi scientists into her own government during Operation Paperclip she replicated Israels actions and now lusts after the same occult knowledge. The aims of Western governments and scientists are the same as the Nazis to usher in a New Golden Age a Third Reich where technology turns man into a god. Its the same lie told over to man again and again and he falls for it every time. Hitler wanted to create a super race of semi-divine beings the West are now close to achieving his goal. The destruction of mankind is inevitable only God's intervention will stop it.

The Road to War - Japan ()


Pearl Harbor: The View From Japan (1994)

Synopsis:
On December 7, 1941, explosions rocked Pearl Harbor and altered the course of history. Now, meet the man who executed the attack. Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto was a military genius who brought modern warfare into the aerial age. Although opposed to attacking the United States and "awakening the sleeping giant," Admiral Yamamoto dedicated his life to the battle that devastated U.S. morale and forced America into World War II.

In an interesting historical departure, this fascinating documentary analyzes the attack on Pearl Harbor from the Japanese point of view and focuses on Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, the Japanese military mastermind who (though bitterly opposed) planned the attack on the U.S. fleet anchored in Hawaii. If history is written by the victors, this view of the events of December 7, 1941, fills an important gap in the historical narrative of World War II.

It is somewhat mis-titled, for it actually briefly covers the entire ill-fated Pacific campaign. It has a strong focus on Admiral Yamamoto himself--his foresight and vision as a military leader, and his reluctance to enter into a fight with the U.S. It is interesting to hear a few words from the Japanese perspective, yet it seems that is all you get--a few words. There is little groundwork laid which might explain more fully Japan's reasons for attacking us.

Ist es Panikmache oder Wahrheit, dass sich das Erdklima verändert? Beides trifft zu! Erdgeschichtlich hat sich das Klima schon oft und wesentlich dramatischer als heute verändert.

Wie man sieht gab es den Klimawandel schon lange bevor es Autos, Flugzeuge, Heizungen usw. gab.

Prostitution Behind the Veil ()

AKA:
Iran: Prostitution Behind the Veil

Synopsis:
Minna and Fariba are neighbours and good friends. They support one another. Both have to live under the pervasive curtailment of women's rights and the double standards of today's Iranian society. They make a living walking the streets looking for men. They have a choice between leaving their small children at home alone or bringing them along when they have sex with men.

The film is a sympathetic portrait of the two women, exploring their day-to-day life and the workings of prostitution in a country that bans it and prosecutes adulterers, sometimes with the penalty of capital punishment.

Many of the clients find a way to buy sex and still comply with Muslim law: they marry the women in what is called 'Sighe', a temporary marriage sanctioned in Shia Islam. Sighe can last from two hours up to 99 years. Both Minna and Fariba enter into Sighe with clients, and Fariba is in a Sighe marriage with a neighbour, Habib, that lasts six months. Giving his perspective on temporary marriage, Habib says that Sighe is a way to help poor women, it is an act of mercy in the name of Allah.

The film follows the two women for more than a year. It describes their middle-class backgrounds and their submission to treacherous men and drugs. We see how Fariba manages to quit drugs and prostitution, only to find herself temporarily married to a man who will not let her leave the house.

The Gravedancers (2006)


About:
The Gravedancers was released on November 3, 2005. It was screened as one of the 8 Films to Die For series in 2006, as part of the After Dark Horrorfest imprint of Lionsgate films. This is essentially an annual direct-to-video release series, although the films are screened in participating theaters for a limited period of time in major American markets.

Synopsis:
An unidentified young woman, alone in a room, is attacked by an invisible assailant, who hangs her in the stairway of her house. As she dies, she drops an ornate black envelope.

A year later, former college friends Sid (Marcus Thomas), Kira (Josie Maran), and Harris (Dominic Purcell) go out drinking after a funeral. They break into the Crescent View Cemetery to say their final goodbyes to the departed. Continuing their revelries, they get quite drunk. Sid finds a black envelope tucked behind a garland of flowers at the grave. It contains a poem urging those present to be joyful and to dance upon the graves. In their drunken state, the three regard this as a celebration of life, and they dance.

Soon enough, mysterious things begin to happen. Harris and his wife Allison (Clare Kramer) are frightened by unexpected visions and odd sounds. Then Kira is attacked by a demonic force. She is severely bitten and sexually assaulted, and her house is ransacked. Sid is plagued by unexpected fires. They enlist a pair of paranormal investigators, Vincent Cochet (Tchéky Karyo) and Frances Culpepper (Megahn Perry), who determine that the three inadvertently invoked a powerful curse by dancing on the graves. They are now being haunted by three wayward spirits - a passionate axe murderer, a child pyromaniac, and a serial killer and rapist - who will kill them at the next full moon.

As the full moon approaches, they return to the cemetery to disinter the remains of their tormenters, hoping to bury them anew and put the curse to rest. Not all of the critical parts make it back into the ground, however, and on the final night the three experience renewed attacks, more powerful and furious than any to date. They are trapped together, with the investigators, by the malevolent spirits, who move in to take their revenge. Sid is incinerated by his firebug ghost; Kira is murdered and her body is possessed by the axe murderer who is pursuing Harris.

Under duress, Culpepper admits that she foiled the burial plan by hiding the skulls of the corpses, the better to gather hard evidence of ghostly activity. Harris takes the skull for his ghost, hoping to place it in a grave which Vincent has conveniently left open in the yard as a safety measure and break the curse at the last moment. He helps Allison escape the house through an attic window, and she crashes back in, through the outside fence and walls, in Vincent's Humvee, which was also parked in the yard.
The spiritual force in the house coalesces and takes the form of a demonic head, which chases after the fleeing Humvee, shattering interior walls as it comes. After a near brush with defeat, the final skull is at last put in its resting place, and the energy of the raging ghosts disappears.

Finally, Allison and Harris walk through the cemetery after the funerals of their friends. As they leave, the groundskeeper carefully places a black envelope in a familiar style on one of the tombstones.

Ae In ()

AKA:
The Intimate

Synopsis:
Telling a story of two strangers who meet by chance in an elevator, The Intimate follows their journey through the day and night (which doesn't seem to end by the way), as they discover about each other, and about themselves in the process. Kinda like Before Sunrise in its treatment, the lovers, nameless except known as Boy (Jo Dong-Hyuk) and Girl (Sung Hyun- Ah), play the usual courtship mind games, playing coy, being aggressive, taking turns to bust each others chops as they fall into each other's arms.

Sounds like your typical romance movie, no? At certain points the usual elements are there, like plot devices romanticizing a bench and hand drawn pictures, and the mushy things lovers whisper to the ears of another. Clichéd highlights include one needing to leave the country the next day, and the other being engaged to someone else, and now both of them, by Fate, are presented a chance to do something totally different. But in this story, it managed to take aged old questions of doubt, and weave a compelling movie around them.

The basic question will be what is love. Is it supposed to be long drawn and lasting a lifetime, or is the feeling actually made up of short passionate bursts? And after being with someone for so long, is it a question of being afraid to leave the comfort zone of familiarity, or does it boil down truly to faithfulness? The nagging fear of being about to marry someone, and then you meet your soulmate - what do you do? Blame the person for turning up in your life too late? And it is somehow true that the longer you know someone, the more faults that you will find, and the question is, will you be able to live with those faults, or do you prefer to live in that constant crest of emotional highs and bailing out when the slightest inclination of such faults start to rear its head?

It helps that both leads are eye-candy, as they offer you a chance to answer some of those questions yourself if you were to put yourselves in their shoes and be offered the same set of temptations - here's what you currently have, and here's what someone else can offer. What would you do? If there is a gripe, it'll be the one-dimensional fiancé that somehow has to be demonized in order to make the other option all the more appealing.

It's a relatively engaging movie, though watching the out takes while the end credits rolled made you appreciate the movie's direction a little more. While those scenes which were left out may be seen as more interesting, somehow I felt it would have disrupted the pace and dragged events rather than having it all compacted into a screen duration of 24 hours. It would have been a totally different look and feel altogether, but probably not for the better.

Dr. Mengeles Erben ()

AKA:
Dr. Mengeles Erben: Menschenexperimente im Kalten Krieg

Synopsis:
Die Erprobung von Giftstoffen für staatliche Mordaufträge und tödliche Experimente mit Lagerinsassen verbindet man mit dem systematischen Massenmord der Nazis. Josef Mengele ist der bekannteste Vertreter dieser "Wissenschaft ohne Gewissen".

Die Geschichte der Menschenversuche im Auftrag des Staates beginnt in den 20er Jahren im "Labor 12" des sowjetischen Geheimdienstes. Dort wurden tödliche Gifte an "Volksfeinden" erprobt. Die Existenz dieses Labors wurde nur durch einen Zufall Anfang der 90er Jahre bekannt, denn Russland hält die Akten über Menschenversuche bis heute geheim. Das "Labor 12" allerdings gibt es unter anderem Namen bis heute.

Nach den Massenmorden während des Zweiten Weltkrieges handelten einige der schlimmsten Kriegsverbrecher mit den Siegermächten Straffreiheit gegen Übergabe der Versuchsergebnisse aus. So arbeitete der japanische General Ishii Shiro, der für den Tod von über 300.000 Menschen verantwortlich war, nach dem Krieg für die USA. Dort waren Militär und Geheimdienste angetan von den Ergebnissen echter Menschenexperimente mit Pest, Anthrax und Tularämie, Unterkühlung, Unterdruck und neuartigen Bomben. Bislang konnten die Militärs nur auf Daten aus Tierversuchen zurückgreifen. Keiner der mindestens 10.000 Verbrecher von Ishiis Todesimperium wurde in den USA bestraft. Einige beendeten ihre wissenschaftlichen Karrieren als Manager großer japanischer Pharma- und Medizinunternehmen. Es störte die Sieger angesichts des Rüstungswettlaufes im Kalten Krieg nicht einmal, dass Ishiis Untergebene auch mit US-Kriegsgefangenen experimentiert hatten. "Mengeles Erben" haben den Zweiten Weltkrieg überlebt, indem sie neuen Herren dienten. Sie waren weiter im Staatsauftrag aktiv. In Nordkorea gibt es nach Zeugenaussagen sogar bis in die Gegenwart Gaskammern, in denen Massenvernichtungsmittel an Häftlingen erprobt werden. In vielen ehemals kommunistischen Staaten verläuft die Aufarbeitung der finsteren Vergangenheit schleppend. Auch die ehemalige CSSR experimentierte mit Verhördrogen und Giften. Die Versuche und Ergebnisse sind bis heute geheim und werden vertuscht. Vielleicht, weil sich wie nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg erneut interessierte Abnehmer für Spezialkenntnisse finden.

Über einige der bisher kaum erforschten systematischen medizinischen Experimente an Menschen berichtet der Dokumentarfilm "Mengeles Erben" weltweit zum ersten Mal im Fernsehen.
