  • Zebedy Colt & Howard North – The Devil Inside Her (1977)

    1971-1980EroticaHoward NorthUSAZebedy Colt

    A mind-blowing, demon-infested tale of incestuous mayhem! Zebedy Colt plays a puritanistic farmer who rules over his family with an iron hand. He sadistically punishes his daughters, attempting to repress their sexual urges.

    The film is set in England in 1826. Faith loves the gardener Joseph, but her father forbids it. Faith’s sister Hope lusts after Joseph and sells her souls to the Devil to get Jospeh for herself. Zebedy Colt was the director of several truly depraved porno roughies including “Sex Wish” and “Unwilling Lovers”.”The Devil Inside Her” is also a pretty twisted film with rather interesting plot. The location sets are great as they add to the overall mood of the film. So if you enjoyed “Sex Wish” or Alex De Renzy’s “Femmes de Sade” you may give this porno horror a try.Read More »

  • Denys Arcand – Gina (1975)

    1971-1980CanadaCrimeDenys ArcandDrama

    Quote:
    Gina (Céline Lomez), a Montreal striptease dancer, is sent by her agency to small-town Louisville to give a show at a local hotel. Also arriving in Louisville that same day are Bob Sauvageau (Claude Blanchard), leader of a gang of snowmobilers known as “Les Pinguins,” and a director (Gabriel Arcand) and a small crew of filmmakers from the Office National du Cinéma who are making a film on the oppressive working conditions at the local textile factory (a reference to Arcand’s own NFB-banned documentary On est au coton). The friendly relationship that is established between Gina and the filmmakers upsets the snowmobilers, while the filmmakers, having persuaded the manager of the factory to allow them to film, are discovering a long history of alienation and submission among the workers.Read More »

    Earthquake is a 1974 American ensemble disaster film that achieved outstanding box office returns, continuing the disaster film genre of the 1970s where recognizable all-star casts attempt to survive life or death situations. The plot concerns the struggle for survival after a catastrophic earthquake destroys most of the city of Los Angeles, California.

    Directed by Mark Robson and with a screenplay by George Fox and Mario Puzo, the film starred a large cast of well-known actors, including Charlton Heston, Ava Gardner, George Kennedy, Lorne Greene, Geneviève Bujold, Richard Roundtree, Marjoe Gortner, Barry Sullivan, Lloyd Nolan, Victoria Principal, and (under an alias) Walter Matthau. It is notable for the use of an innovative sound effect called Sensurround which created the sense of actually experiencing an earthquake in theatres.Read More »

  • Arthur Omar – Triste Trópico (1974)

    1971-1980ArthouseArthur OmarBrazilDocumentary

    Traffic on the roads of São Paulo, old family photographs, and the voice-over tale of Arthur Alvaro de Noronha, a doctor coming back from Paris after finishing his Medicine studies in Europe. Arthur with his family, Arthur in Paris… The voice tells us of the doctor’s adventures with friends André Breton, Paul Éluard, Max Ernst, and Pablo Picasso. This is how Omar announces the surrealist biography he weaves in Triste Trópico around the figure of an imaginary doctor who ends up as indigenous messiah. Described as a “anthropological mock documentary,” Triste Trópico is a film whose title alludes to Levi-Strauss’s ethnographic memoirs of Brazil and triggers a chain of evocative references to the carnival-cannibal avant-garde of Oswald de Andrade’s Cannibal Manifesto.Read More »
