Absurd (the sequel/prequel to Anthropophagus)

[Zombie Dude]

I haven't actually seen this film but I have seen Anthropophagus. As far as I know Absurd hasn't had a legit release which is why I've made a petition to hopefully get it one.

Here's the link to the petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/he774a77/petition.html

Thanks to those who sign:)

[Katatonia]

It's coming to DVD on June 30th from MYA.

My god!:eek: I may actually get to see this film after all. I hope they change the cover and I'm interested to see if it's uncut or not. Thanks a lot for the link.

[evildeadfan123]

Good. I have been wanting that movie to complete the Anthropopagus collection.

[old-boo-radley]

Holy shit! It's gonna cost about $7 billion Canadian, but I am down!

[CrazyFatEthel]

Is this a region 1 release? If so, cant wait to pick it up!!!By the way, anyone now when Nightmare is going to be released?

[Stige]

a cover can be fixed by oneself , just an uncut film in better quality than I already have and I would love it

[Mutilated Prey]

Sweet! I have the Monster Hunter VHS and was about to transfer it.

[Shlockjock81]

OMG it's FINALLY happening!!! I am foaming at the mouth for this as my uncut vhs rip is... well just that. A vhs rip of pretty lousy quality.

[Crystal Plumage]

Yeah, mentioned this earlier in the MYA thread.
I even signed the petition. Never seen the film.

They used the French title which could indicate they only had access to a French copy. Was the French version cut?

[d-udo]

Good. I have been wanting that movie to complete the Anthropopagus collection.

Once Again. The Movie "Rosso Sangue" aka "Absurd" etc. has nothing to do with "Antropophagus".
In the beginning Joe D' Amato planned a sequel to "Antropophagus" and hand a treatment of the script to his friend and Partner Luigi Montefiori (George Eastman).
But due this time Montefiori was busy with another film and on the other hand, he was not interessted in it because he didn`t like the original "Antropophagus" Film. So Massaccesi gave the treatment to another writer, but he failed. So the screenplay went back to Montefiori and he completley rewrote it for free, with the option that he want to play the lead character.
Through all over the world the movie "Rosso Sangue" was advertised as "Antropophagus 2" but only because the original one was, instead of italy, an international success. As many of you know, D' Amato was only interessted in making money. He had never any artistic ambitions in his whole career.
For the Fans:
"Rosso Sangue" was filmed in two weeks in May 1981 in the city of Fiano Romano 44 kilometres in the north of Rome.

So they can't use the title Absurd because it's own by MGM, is that right?

Well he was calling it a prequel in the documentary that was on the Anthropophagus disc from Shriek Show. :confused:

[Angelman]

Happy to see this one hit DVD. Not a huge fan of "Anthro" but I liked this one, even though it is a rip-off of Halloween II plot-wise.

I know. Its only relation to Anthro is that he said it was a prequel. As a film it has no connection.

There's an Anthropophagus remake BTW. It's German and from what I've seen it looks pretty cheep. I wouldn't mind seeing a new remake to the film.

forget that Remake.
it is a german amateur production by Andreas Schnaas made in 1999 and is called "Antropophagus 2000"
Awful movie !!

I think I found a clip for it once with all the death scenes. It was so over-the-top and badly acted I was laughing the whole way through. I think that clip showed all the movie had to offer too.

So what about the idea for a 'decent' remake?

But who is gonna play the beast??
I think Montefioris performance is unbeatable.
But i would like to see him in a cameo.
So unfortunatley he would never do this !!! (except you pay him a lot of money) :D :D

I'm sure he's much more interested in porn anyway.:rolleyes:

I'm sure we could find someone to play the beast. Surely it can be done.

[d-udo]

I'm sure he's much more interested in porn anyway.:rolleyes:


Well, i don' t think so.
He was never a fan of porn and gore films.
according to Luigi Montefiori he never saw the "Santo Domingo" Films (i.e. Porno Holocaust, Sesso Nero, Le Notti Erotiche dei morti Viventi etc.)

Hey, Udo, how about some sound-remixes?

[d-udo]

Hey, Udo, how about some sound-remixes?

Sound Remixes ?
Yeah Ok, but what do you prefer more ? Music of "Antropophagus" or "Le Notti". or other stuff ?

I am in contact with Roger Conrad again.
Maybe we can record some new tracks from the movies.
I would love to produce it. And Roger is amazing in playing it.
He has no sheets, he figured out the arrangement only from listening. I could never do that. My strength is more in Synthesizer programming and producing the sound :)

[fceurich39]

i still have a uncut taped vhs copy but i may have to get this on dvd i am surprised shriek show never released this on dvd but i remember it took them forever to get antropophagus on dvd

[meddle]

They are using an Italian language master for the DVD. They also are comparing the Italian master with an English language master in case there is something in the English language version that is not in the Italian language version. They also plan on including English and Italian audio options for this release (alas at this time it looks like there will be no English subtitles like their other DVD releases that included both English and Italian audio options).

[festivusboi]

So this will be in english correct?

[d-udo]

So this will be in english correct?

I hope so.
but as many english dubbings for italian movies, they are awful. So is the dubbing for "Rosso Sangue" ;)
Even for people like me. And english is not my mother language.
I am german.
And i have to say that the german dubbings were far more professional. at least during the 80ies. :)

[CrazyFatEthel]

Is this going to be R1?

[Shlockjock81]

Is this going to be R1?

I sure as hell hope so. I ALSO hope that they get rid of that GOD AWFUL artwork. Even if they used the image that on the front of the UK tape (the axe), I'd be happy. But when they create new and trendy looking covers just to appeal to today's teeny-boppers, I have a HUGE issue with that.

Also, why the hell are they calling this film "Horrible"? I know it was the french title, but this is not a french release!! For fuck's sake, CALL IT "Abusrd"!! That's the title everyone knows it as!! Why do they have to purposely complicate these things?! These aren't huge gripes either.. these are small issues that really take no effort to fix.

QFT!

I agree with everything here. They need to try and release this thing properly. Both artwork and title stink.

[FilmFiend]

I wonder if they will give a videotaped interview with Annie Belle?:rolleyes: I wonder if she still wears that short hair.

[chrismac87]

There's really no excuse for that artwork. It's very generic and bland and I'm sure they could have either whipped something better up or used one of the many posters used to advertise the film.

I don't know how off I may be but I believe they're releasing it under the title HORRIBLE because MGM supposedly owns the rights to the film and it's possible they don't have it copy written under that title? I'm grasping at straws here but it's not the film's original title and judging by their FOUR FLIES ON GREY VELVET release, they like to stick to the original English title which I believe in this case would be ABSURD.

If anyone's interested, the Italian title translated into English is; RED BLOOD.

Doesn't really roll off the tongue...

[festivusboi]

Can someone please pot the artwork?

[festivusboi]

I meant post the artwork.

[CrazyFatEthel]

Ok, thank you.
i have to admit, i am not so familiar with "Rosso Sangue" ;)

Here are screenshots for three different releases of Absurd including a screenshot for Mya's forthcoming DVD. The first image is from the German DVD release, the second is from a full frame VHS release and the third screenshot is from the Mya DVD release.

Outstanding. I always liked this, even though it steals the plot of Halloween II and George Eastman has Wolverine's healing power.

[Zombie Dude]

Does anyone know if they're going to change the cover? I know it's called Horrible, but that doesn't mean the whole damn package has to look the part.

[Shlockjock81]

Wow that screenshot looks REALLY promising!

I hope they go with the "Absurd" title and change that god-awful cover art.. Like I stated previously: No one except those who live in France know this film under the title "Horrible". It could actually affect their sales if they release it under that title!

[Crystal Plumage]

Looks pretty good indeed.

[Katatonia]

That screengrab does look really nice. Now, if they'd only change that Horrible coverart. :evil:

[f.ramses]

Agreed, the disc looks great! I'm glad those screenshots got posted here, I was actually considering buying the Astro DVD release but now I'm going to hold off. I watched my Zombie 6: Monster Hunter VHS this weekend and the VHS screenshot here actually makes my copy look even worse by comparison!

[ReelFear]

just recently watched the awful looking VHS to DVD rip, and after seeing the screenshots I will be buying and watching the Mya DVD the day it's released.

[Mutilated Prey]

Very nice - looks like it's time to sell my Monster Hunter VHS on eBay :)

[napalm baby]

Just please give us the UK pre cert cover , blue with the axe and call it ABSURD instead :mad:

[catbus420]

I agree that the box/case art is utterly wretched and boring. They should use something like X-rated Kult's VHS. It's gorgeous. I like the Wizard Video box too, even though it has absolutely nothing to do with the movie. Still, it's MUCH better than the one they are using.

BTW, does anyone know what you call the job(?) of making "movie boxes?" I bought some Memorex blank DVD case sleeves that had a program (which was downloaded off the net, I think) where you can create cases. I had a house fire and was able to salvage some of my DVDs but not some of the cases, so I made them new ones. The replacements I made were much better looking than the horrible "Horrible" art, and it was acually kind of fun.

[fceurich39]

any reviews yet for the mya region 1 dvd of horrible?

[vampyr789]

lol i signed it too, but i havent even seen the movie :o but that was a long time a go when i signed

[Crystal Plumage]

A not so horrible review:

http://10kbullets.com/reviews/h/horrible-absurd/

Most importantly:
For the bulk of the film about 88 minutes comes from a clean (outside of some minor instances of print debris) and detailed looking source is used which looks very good for a non anamorphic transfer. Most importantly all of the gore / kill scenes are completely sourced from the stronger of the two sources used for this release.

[old-boo-radley]

The movie's not anamorphic? :(

[fceurich39]

great review but why does it say the movie comes out july 14th it's june 30th this tuesday right?

[Crystal Plumage]

Nope, it's delayed. The new street date is indeed July 14th.
As per Amazon:
This title will be released on July 14, 2009.

[Body Boy]

We've waited years...I think I can wait an extra two weeks. Sweet! Can't wait to see this.

[fceurich39]

Nope, it's delayed. The new street date is indeed July 14th.
As per Amazon:

yep that sucks a few websites still say june 30th maybe a few places will still get it then

[Crystal Plumage]

At least there's some promo copies out there. Who knows.

[zombi3]

I can't believe non-anamorphic widescreen DVDs are still being produced in 2009.

[hellraiser40]

maybe we were spoiled with NoShame, but if Mya's Legend Of The Blood Castle is anything to go by, their releases are not so hot

[Mutilated Prey]

Non-anamorphic eh? Hmmm. Well, as long as the zoom doesn't produce artifacts on the Panny Plasma it's OK with me. It's gotta be a ton better than any of those old VHS's rolling around!

[fceurich39]

my local independent dvd/music store it has it in their system saying one copy is coming june 30th but if they don't get it june 30th then it is delayed until the 14th of july since mya communication isn't a very big dvd company my store gets alot of less mainstream horror movies with smaller labels earlier than there release date there is a good chance they will have it this tuesday

[chrismac87]

I wonder what video footage they used? I remember the Wizard video version not having too bad of quality, I'm sure with some color mixing and matching they could have gotten the footage to match pretty damn close.

And what's up with it being non-anamorphic? With no special features? And $24.95? That's pretty steep for a disc with nothing to offer. Hell that's a budget release as far as I'm concerned. Something like MY BLOODY VALENTINE 3D or the remake of FRIDAY THE 13Th I could see being $24.95 but a no frills, non-anamorphic disc going for that? Uh not so much.

[Mutilated Prey]

Deep Discount will have it for $16.97.

[fceurich39]

remember shriek show anthropophagus was delayed multiple times so i guess it is expected that it's sequel horrible would be delayed but atleast it is only two weeks if my store doesn't get it this tuesday

[Katatonia]

It's non-anamorphic in 2009? Geez.

Deep Discount will have it for $16.97.

$14.36 at DVD Pacific, but the DD sale should be starting about that time hopefully.

im new here so ill keep this short...i read the review and it says the running time is 94 minutes...does that mean the version i have is cut!?(the running time is 90 minutes) and its still pretty gory

[Crystal Plumage]

Welcome HW!
Which version do you have? Is it a PAL disc?

[old-boo-radley]

No, it's uncut. Nice packaging too. :D

The night I got Anthropophagus in the mail, I sat down at the kitchen table with my laptop and had it beside me. I poured some pop into one of those freezer glasses. I looked back up and lo and behold, the freezer cup had cracked and leaked all its liquid onto the table... and ruined the outside of the packaging. Life's a bitch, huh?

Mine was creased in the mail. I'm a bit of perfection freak so I was less than happy.
It was just jammed into my letterbox too, so I'm guessing that didn't help the matter.

[fceurich39]

so now is the release date 7-14 or 7-28 anyone know????

[vampyr789]

ummm idk. but im gonna find a different DVD cover somewhere online and slip in front of that god awful cover Mya has made for it.

and btw, i never seen Anthropophagus, is it good?

ummm idk. but im gonna find a different DVD cover somewhere online and slip in front of that god awful cover Mya has made for it.

It's... OK. Worth a watch for sure. It's definitely not Joe D'amato's worst film, but that's not saying much lol. It does contain a few cringe inducing scenes. To be honest though, it is rather boring for the first 45 min or so.

Personally, I prefer Absurd/Horrible/Anthropophagus 2 much more.

[Mutilated Prey]

ummm idk. but im gonna find a different DVD cover somewhere online and slip in front of that god awful cover Mya has made for it.

Anthropophagus isn't the best of films but it's certainly got its moments. There's some great locations, nifty gore and a nice European feel to it. I say give it a watch.

[fceurich39]

ummm idk. but im gonna find a different DVD cover somewhere online and slip in front of that god awful cover Mya has made for it.

and btw, i never seen Anthropophagus, is it good?

it's good but very slow moving

[Cardiac Tom]

and btw, i never seen Anthropophagus, is it good?

Like everyone else said, it is worth the watch. D'Amato really sets up a sense of dread in this one...the atmosphere is pretty tense...

Other than that, it was pretty hyped up because of the two notorious gore scenes being cut in most releases...

That said, I own three copies of Anthro...:) And my band based our last albums artwork from the film...so I guess it had some big impact on me...lol

Absurd was decent as well. Lot more faster paced...plays out more like a Slasher flick...

[CrazyFatEthel]

Ok, I want to see this freakin movie!!!

I have always liked this one. I used to have the cheap Edde Entertainment VHS under the title Zombie 6: Monster Hunter. Very excited to finally have this on DVD.

now is it july 14th or july 28th it is divided on alot of websites
before it was june 30th or july 14th anyone know for sure when the dvd release date is?

[Buio_Omega]

so, Rosso Sangue seems to be the no.1 personal favourite amongst all italian horror movies. Maybe because I used to watch this brutal flick years ago when I was approx. 12 or 13 years old. It was brutal and bloody enough to scare the s..t out of me and to see Mr. Eastman on every corner for the next two weeks. Then for many many years I was trying to find again that film but it was hardly possible.
I do live in Poland, and in the late 80's when our communism felt apart and there was the first "fresh air from the brave new world" Polish market was literally drowned in VCR's and numerous movies. One of these was Rosso Sangue, with german dubbing and polish lector (lector is still common practice in polish film market).
So, years have passed and since several months I'm a happy owner of an old, long time OOP Astro german DVD edition of Rosso Sangue, which unfortunately is only dubbed in german and contains modern opening credits, but it also has an extra feature - nice D'Amato documentary (italian/ger only but at least it's worthy watching). However I'm curious about the new Mya release. The images on the latest reviews seems to have better picture quality than german release, but sad there is no extras.

[Crystal Plumage]

So, years have passed and since several months I'm a happy owner of an old, long time OOP Astro german DVD edition of Rosso Sangue,

This one, right?

http://www.chainsawvideo.nl/dvd_details.asp?id=313

Yeah, this is it! Well, it is not a perfect release, but good enough for me.

Pluses:
- actually one big plus for the fact that I owe such a rarity, which is very hard to find nowadays!
- nice cover with blinded face of Eastman

Minuses:
- non anamorphic version
- only german dubbing, no subtitles (in this particular case that's not a problem for me b'cause I know the whole damn dialogues from the old Polish version)
- extra scenes (operation, Engleman's visit at Bennett's house, some phone conversations by Engleman in precinct, Mikos' wandering around town) have bad quality (taken from various VHS sources) and they are dubbed in english or italian (depends on scene) with german subtitles + looped music (creepy opening theme)
- nice documentary/interview with Aristide Massaccesi in italian only with german subtitles (but it's nice to watch, just to see some interesting scenes from his various movies)
- german languaged modern opening credits (who the hell made such a crap! Full of mispells, and Charles Borromel's - here as Borronel - name appears twice). I prefer the old one english opening credits with characteristic font.

When a friend of mine (also a big collector) told me that he obtained that movie, I said "I'll give you everything you want from my collection, just make an exchange!". So after long and exhausting negotiations I gave him 8 films in exchange :) You can imagine how happy I was grabbing this DVD in my shaky hands, kissing it and dancing ;) Rosso Sangue always were and will be my favourite horror movie of all time!!!

The custom cover is much better than the MYA one, which is indeed horrible. I need to get this too. I still haven't gotten around to seeing the film.

It's too hard to make a cover if you can't find a hi-res scan of the picture.

That cover looks good. Now to hope that the picture is good and the price is low.

This is a metalcase with a lenticular cover. It includes the same DVD as in their hardbox releases. They were available with different cover artworks. (some examples below). Kick-ass cover artworks - but only German audio !
