Description

A window to the spectral world, the work of Antoine Pellissier—a physician by day and horror maestro by night—is the underground answer to Jean Rollin. FOLIES MEURTRIERES AND THE FILMS OF ANTOINE PELLISSIER is a 2-disc set that presents Pellissier's complete filmography for the first time on home video. From dreamlike slasher FOLIES MEURTRIERES to gore-soaked epic MALEFICIA, these handcrafted art-horrors from France are heavenly discoveries for discerning horrorheads. This set also includes the long-lost, uncut version of LES PROIES DU MAL (Pellissier's first feature) and DR. GORE, a feature-length documentary from Pauline Pallier.

    So much 8mm film

    I can’t believe how much 8mm film this guy went through. I did watch everything, but had to do it in about six different viewings. I kept returning because I found it fascinating; events just ever so slowly unfold inducing an odd state in the viewer. I don’t think too many would enjoy this.

    hypnotic 1980s French slasher that plays out like a beautifully surreal, gore-soaked nightmare

    I liked it a lot, and it has a cool lofi score that helps with the storytelling, along with the wonderful Super 8 imagery
