On November 13, 1974, Suffolk County Police receive a frantic phone call that led them to 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville. Inside they discover a horrific crime scene: an entire family slaughtered in their beds. Ronald DeFeo, Jr., confessed to shooting his parents and four siblings while they slept, claiming “voices” in the house forced him to commit the murders. One year later, George and Kathy Lutz and their children moved into the house. But shortly after settling in, bizarre and unexplainable events began to occur – nightmarish visions and haunting voices from an evil presence still lurking within the house. Confused and frightened by her daughter Chelsea’s interaction with an imaginary friend named Jodie, Kathy struggles to hold her family together as George’s increasingly strange behaviour finds him spending days and nights in the basement. With lucid visions and evil voices swirling through George’s head, the house comes alive in a spine-chilling climax... |

Nastassia Kinski stars in Paul Schrader's Cat People as Irena, a beautiful young woman on the brink of sexuality. She discovers love for the first time only to find that the explosive experience brings with it tragic consequences. The tremendous passion of this girl's first romantic love is so strong, however, that it by-passes the choas around her - including her brother's (Malcolm McDowell) extraordinary demands - as it pushes her on to her own bizzare destiny. With a style as timeless as myth, Cat People is an erotic fantasy of the passion and terror that surround this girl's first love. Desire... passion... blood, her lust transforms her into one of the Cat People. |

It is 1850 in the beautiful, perfectly kept town of Wismar. Jonathan Harker (Bruno Ganz) is about to leave on a long journey over the Carpathian Mountains to finalise real estate arrangements with a wealthy nobleman. His wife Lucy (Isabel Adjani) begs him not to go and is troubled by a strong premonition of danger. Despite her warnings, Jonathan arrives four weeks later at a large, gloomy castle. Out of the mist appears a pale wraith-like figure with a shaven head and deep sunken eyes who identifies himself as Count Dracula (Klaus Kinski). The events that transpire slowly convince Harker that he is in the midst of a vampire. What he doesn’t know, however, is the magnitude of danger he, his wife and his town are about to experience as victims of the Nosferatu. Directed by the great Werner Herzog, Nosferatu The Vampyre is widely recognised as one of the finest films of the vampire genre. An homage to F. W. Murnau's 1922 original, Herzog's Nosferatu is driven towards tragedy and visual splendour rather than the gory bloodfests of later remakes. Herzog`s frequent leading man and eccentric live wire Klaus Kinski (Fitzcarraldo, Aguirre Wrath of God, Cobra Verde) gives a sensational performance as the eerie, goblin-like Dracula. |
