Bloody Knuckles © Artsploitation Films
2014, Canada
Canada, our well-heeled neighbor to the north, is not known for cinematic carnage or gore comedies, but first time director Matt O. aims to shake things up with Bloody Knuckles, a deliriously offensive, gory and happily un-PC horror-comedy. Travis (Adam Boys), an underground comic book artist with a penchant for obscene caricatures, upsets a thin-skinned crime lord, who responds by cutting off the young mans hand. A despondent and now alcoholic Travis wallows in post-severed hand depression. Will criminality reign supreme? Will Travis give up his acerbic pen and live alone as a bitter one-handed man? Not if the slightly rotted hand, now alive and determined to exact revenge, teems up with his former body and a masked, S&M-loving gay superhero to rid the city of evil!
The Dark Place (c) Breaking Glass Pictures
2014, United States
Long estranged from his widowed mother, Keegan Dark (Blaise Embry) is blessed with the uncanny ability to remember his life in videographic detail. This is both a blessing and a curse, keeping him at odds with his family and loved ones. Returning home with his boyfriend in tow to make amends with his mother, he’s shocked to discover she remarried. His family now includes a step-father and step-brother – and Keegan quickly surmises they aren’t up to any good. His investigation into their past is derailed when his mother drops into a coma, his boyfriend seemingly leaves him and the town’s sheriff targets him as the most likely culprit. With allies scarce and time running out, Keegan must fight – and use his remarkable mind – to unravel the secrets that threaten to destroy him.
In a Glass Cage (c) Cult Epics
1986, Spain
Although definitely not for the squeamish, this sexually bizarre and violent thriller is a real find for those aficionados of no–holds–barred horror. Set a few years after WWII, the story concerns a former Nazi doctor and child molester who, because of an accident, is confined to an iron lung. The tormentor becomes the tormented after a mysterious young man, employed to be the paralyzed man’s nurse, is instead bent on revenge. Mixing the style of Diva with the graphic sadomasochism of Pasolini’s Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, the film treads on ideas rarely ventured in commercial films. An uncompromising psycho-sexual drama that is erotic, painful and terrifying, In a Glass Cage has been haunting people’s dreams and waking nightmares since it was first released to great controversy back in 1986. This one is for brave viewers only.
The Passenger (c) TLA Releasing
2012, Germany
Sexual and moral boundaries are put to the test when a handsome stranger begins to infiltrate the lives of two artists. While searching for a condo in Berlin for his father, Nick (Niklas Peters) meets Philipp (Urs Stampfli), a talented photographer, and Lilli (Lynn Femme), a gorgeous actress. There is instant chemistry and both are easily seduced by Nick’s charms. Lilli and Philipp begin to explore their relationship with the sexy visitor, succumbing to their passionate affections which intensify their volatile emotional and physical bonds. But what Philipp and Lilli don’t realize is that they are being lured into Nick’s manipulative (and deadly) game of love. Director Tor Iben (The Visitor, The Year I Lost My Mind) is really good at crafting intense and incredibly titillating man-on-man love scenes.
