On 23 October (UK), and 24 October (USA/Canada), Indicator is proud to present two more 4K restorations in its acclaimed series of films by European horror auteur Jean Rollin, both of which are amongst his best-loved works. Available to pre-order from powerhousefilms.co.uk
First, Indicator presents 1975’s Lips of Blood (Lèvres de sang), which finds the master of the fantastique marshalling all of his obsessions – ruined châteaux, remote beaches, abandoned graveyards, mysterious twins, and female vampires. Starring regular Rollin actors Jean-Loup Philippe (The Rape of the Vampire), Natalie Perrey (The Iron Rose), and twins Cathy and Marie-Pierre Castel (Requiem for a Vampire), Lips of Blood is a tour de force within Rollin’s inimitable oeuvre.
Secondly, Indicator presents present 1979’s Fascination, Rollin’s decadent fantasy of sex and death, in which jealousy, vengeance, obsession, cannibalism, and blood-drinking collide. With its standout performance from Brigitte Lahaie (The Night of the Hunted) as the scythe-wielding Eva, Fascination is one of the purest expressions of Rollin’s unique fantastique aesthetic.
Newly remastered from the best available film elements, both of these essential releases contain expertly encoded presentations, an expansive selection of newly produced and archival extra features, improved English subtitles, and 80-page books with new essays, historical articles and interviews, and film credits.
