The image shows the slide case art for the Shout Factory release of John Woo's highly influential 1989 crime thriller, The Killer. The art design features an illustration of the film's star, Chow Yun Fat, aiming an automatic weapon.

There's nothing to say that hasn't been said about John Woo's massively influential Hong Kong action/crime classic, but on the outside chance you're unfamiliar with it:

Imagine the Taxi Driver shootout and Boromir's death scene had a baby.

'The Exorcist'. 1973 (William Friedkin)

I've been good so far this year and only had one watch - but with all the recent attention about inferior additions on the way, a reminder of how it's done & shall never be surpassed.

Today's Film Article: Loud, empty, & hollow - another deadening nail driven into cinema.

Absolutely love this movie, in fact, it's my favourite Sergio Martino flick. It's the perfect blend of Poliziottesco/Giallo, and I love the added humour, the story, acting and THAT score is just 🎶🤌🏻 It's so heartfelt and even has tradegy among scenes of action and genuine tension! Highly recommended!

German promotional art for A Chinese Ghost Story 2 features the film's hero, Ling Choi San, using magic to hurl fire at a villain that lies out of frame. A giant, tentacled monster wriggles behind him as a possessed demon woman looks down on the scene.

The hero's love interest, Ching Fung, looks pensive in her elaborate wedding head dress as she is is carted off to an arranged marriage.

A spiky monster with a maw full of jagged teeth scans the darkness in search of humans to devour.

#watched A CHINESE GHOST STORY 2 (1990)

This sequel lacks the soulful charm of the first film, and the plot is overly convoluted, but it's still a hugely entertaining fantasy-horror movie with plenty of action, monsters, and amusing characters.

'Amityville II: The Possession'. 1982 (Damiano Damiani)

A charity shop pick for 99p a few years back - by far one of the most nightmarish & disturbing films ever committed to celluloid. It also happens to be that rare example of a sequel surpassing it's predecessor.

What appears to be German promotional art for the 1976 British film, The House on Straw Hill, features the movie title lettering across the top, above a close up of Udo Kier's eyes. Below are illustrations of scantily clad, frightened women as well as a dying man who has been stabbed in the back. The artwork seems to suggest that Kier is looking down on these images in horror.

#watched THE HOUSE ON STRAW HILL (1976)

A novelist plagued by violent hallucinations becomes obsessed with the attractive writing assistant he just hired. That's when the violence begins to happen for real.

It felt like an Udo Kier night. RIP.
