Win The Acclaimed, Oscar-Winning Call Me By Your Name On Blu-ray!

March 8, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Call Me By Your Name is one of the highest profile and most acclaimed gay-themed movies since Brokeback Mountain, and one of the few to make the crossover to mainstream success. That includes winning an Oscar, with veteran filmmaker James Ivory (Maurice, Remains Of The Day) picking up Best Adapted Screenplay for his take on Andre Aciman’s novel.

The film is out on Blu-ray & DVD in the UK now, and we’ve got three Blu-ray copies to give away!

It’s the summer of 1983 in Italy, and Elio (Timotheé Chalamet), a precocious 17-year-old, spends his days in his family’s villa transcribing and playing classical music, reading and flirting with his friend Marzia. One day, Oliver (Armie Hammer), a charming American scholar, arrives as the annual summer intern tasked with helping Elio’s father, an eminent professor. Elio and Oliver discover the heady beauty of awakening desire over the course of a summer that will alter their lives forever.

Win A Signed Copy Of Kickboxer: Retaliation On DVD!

March 4, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

To celebrate the home entertainment release of KICKBOXER: RETALIATION, available now on digital download and on DVD & Blu-ray from 5th March 2018, we have a copy of the DVD, signed by the film’s star ‘Alain Moussi’, up for grabs, courtesy of Kaleidoscope Entertainment!

This follow up to last year’s sensational Kickboxer: Vengeance sees Alain Moussi and Jean-Claude Van Damme teamed up again as Kurt Sloan and mentor Durand – this time, with Sloan facing down one of the screen’s biggest and most brutal villains, in the shape of underground champion Mongkut, played by the incredible Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, famous as unstoppable ‘The Mountain’ Gregor Clegane in Game of Thrones.

Hollywood stunt performer Alain Moussi, flexing his acting chops as well as his muscles, and original Kickboxer star Van Damme make a great pairing as the hotheaded novice and the wise veteran. The A-grade cast also includes Highlander’s Christopher Lambert, on brilliant form here as the villainous Thomas Moore, forcing Sloan to fight against his wishes; as well as boxing legend and Hangover star Mike Tyson, who is drafted in to get Sloan ready for the mother of all bouts.

With exotic Thailand locations, fiery fight scenes and some stupendous stunt-work, KICKBOXER: RETALIATION is a no-holds barred-slice of slam bang cinema. With a finale that will make your eyes water, this is a blistering blast of mixed martial arts mayhem that hits the viewer right between the eyes.

The film is also available in a brilliantly bone-crunching box set paired up with KICKBOXER: VENGEANCE, which sees Jean-Claude Van Damme training up Alain Moussi for a killer bout against Guardians of the Galaxy and Spectre star Dave Bautista.

KICKBOXER: RETALIATION IS AVAILABLE NOW ON DIGITAL DOWNLOAD. KICKBOXER: RETALIATION AND THE KICKBOXER BOX SET, RELEASES ON DVD & BLU-RAY 5TH MARCH, COURTESY OF KALEIDOSCOPE HOME ENTERTAINMENT.

Win Carl Theodor Dreyer’s Gay Cinema Classic, Michael, On Blu-ray!

February 11, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s easy to believe that gay cinema started with a few underground efforts in the 1950s, before starting to flourish in the 1960s. However, almost since the dawn of moving film there have landmark gay film, and one of the key ones of the silent era is Carl Theodor Dreyer’s 1924 movie Michael.

A new 2K restoration of Carl Th. Dreyer’s MICHAEL, the compelling piece of silent cinema from one of the all-time great directors, will be released as a WORLD EXCLUSIVE on Blu-ray from 12 February 2018, and is available to order here http://amzn.to/2neYUCl

Based on Herman Bang’s 1902 novel of the same name, Dreyer’s film is a fascinating fin-de-siècle study of a “decadent” elderly artist (Benjamin Christensen) driven to despair by his relationship with his young protégé and former model, Michael (Walter Slezak). With suffocatingly sumptuous production design by renowned architect Hugo Häring (his only film work), this Kammerspiel, or “intimate theatre”, foreshadows Dreyer’s magnificent final film Gertrud, by forty years with its “Now I may die content, for I have seen great love” epigraph.

Win The Action Movie The Shanghai Job, Starring Orlando Bloom, On DVD!

February 4, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

To celebrate the home entertainment release of THE SHANGHAI JOB, available now on digital download and on DVD from 5th February 2018, we have a copy of the DVD up for grabs, courtesy of Signature Entertainment!

“Failure is something I could never live with again – how’s that for assurance?”

Pirates of the Caribbean and Lord of the Rings superstar Orlando Bloom proves himself a knockout action hero in this dazzling Shanghai-set feature debut from Charles Martin (director of Skins and gripping TV crime drama Marcella), from the team behind Mechanic Resurrection, Welcome To The Punch and Iron Man 3.

Bloom lights up the screen as the charismatic and not-to-be-messed-with Danny Stratton – a cross between Matthew Bourne and The Transporter. Entrusted with taking the ultra-valuable Zodiac Vase – ‘the soul of China’ – from Shanghai to London, Stratton’s hi-tech crew are hijacked on their way to the airport in a nerve-shredding chase sequence – by the same gang who hit Stratton a year before and left his career in tatters. Bloom is brilliant as a man with nothing left to lose, who’ll stop at nothing to even the score – right up to a nail-biting, vase-tossing finale.

Superbly filmed in and around the striking, neon-drenched city of Shanghai, with a pulsing soundtrack (including Katy Perry’s song Roulette) and jaw-dropping action set pieces, the film also features Simon Yam and Lynn Xiong and Xing Yu, stars of the action classic Ip Man. This is a sensational mix of twisty heist thriller with high-kicking actioner, as if Ocean’s 11 was crossed with Taken, and, with the commanding central presence of a blond, buff Bloom, THE SHANGHAI JOB is just the ticket for those in search of stylish, breathless entertainment.

Johnny Saxby (Josh O’Connor; The Riot Club, The Durrells) works long hours on his family’s remote farm in the north of England. He numbs the daily frustration of his lonely existence with nightly binge-drinking at the local pub and casual sex. But when a handsome Romanian migrant worker (Alec Secareanu) arrives to take up temporary work on the family farm, Johnny suddenly finds himself having to deal with emotions he has never felt before. As they begin working closely together during lambing season, an intense relationship starts to form which could change Johnny’s life forever.
