New on Blu-ray: JESS FRANCO - FROM BANGKOK WITH BULLETS (1985) - Action Double Feature

Jess Franco From Bangkok With Bullets New On Bluray

Product Description: In 1985, writer/director Jess Franco briefly stepped away from horror and erotica to focus on several adventure thrillers that combined elements of his earlier Eurospy and Fu Manchu hits with his sardonic wit and love for exotic settings. But having no budget for foreign locales, he instead sent cinematographer Juan Soler to Thailand to shoot a few days of exteriors which became the foundation for two of Uncle Jess' most surprising - and rarely-seen - Spanish productions of the decade: In The Worldwide Blu-ray Premiere of TRIP TO BANGKOK, COFFIN INCLUDED, Francoverse legend Howard Vernon stars as a cantankerous British agent on the trail of a creepy cult leader. In The Worldwide Disc Premiere of BANGKOK, DATE WITH DEATH, Jess unleashes a pop-art crime spree of pirates, kidnappers and kung fu killers starring his beloved muse Lina Romay. Both films have been scanned in 4K from their original camera negatives, complete with all-new appreciations by Stephen Thrower and Parts 14 & 15 of In the Land of Franco, hailed by Mondo Digital as "Severin's ongoing featurettes that now constitute the most intensive and valuable survey of a filmmaker's locations in history."
