The Cast

Plot Synopsis
Based on a best-selling novel by John Christopher, this combination of horror movie and cautionary eco-tale warns against the dangers of pollution as crops lie withered and fields are littered with bodies of dead cattle. This potentially powerful apocalyptic vision is arguably more relevant now than it was back in 1970 and unfortunately is dealt with too melodramatically by Wilde.
Set in a futuristic Britain that has been decimated by the sudden onset of a terrible grass plague caused by environmental damage. One man, John Custance (Nigel Davenport), is persuaded by his brother David (Patrick Holt) to flee London with his family to the sanctuary of his brother’s farm. The Custance family join Pirrie (Anthony May) and his wife and make the treacherous journey to David's well-stocked farm in the Lake District.

The Apple (a.k.a. Star Rock) is a 1978 musical science fiction film starring Catherine Mary Stewart and directed by Menahem Golan. It is a discoesque rock opera-styled feature, set in a futuristic 1994, dealing with themes of conformity versus rebellion and infused with Biblical allegories (namely the tale of Adam and Eve).
The film was a low budget attempt by the young Cannon studio to capitalize on the success of music-oriented films like Saturday Night Fever and Grease. Set in America but filmed in Germany, it was released in West Germany as Star Rock in 1978. The film was critically panned and a box office bomb when given an extremely limited U.S. release in the fall of 1980 under its current title. It may have underperformed in theaters because of the waning popularity of disco music and its rather campy plotline. However, in later years the film has gone on to enjoy a small cult following.

Zone 39, by John Tatoulis (1993)

Zone39, by John Tatoulis (1993)
Language : English
Subtitles: no subs
Format : | AVI / dvd rip
Runtime : 1:35:00
Size : 697 MB
Genre: Sci-fi
Director: John Tatoulis

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120554/

With: Peter Phelps, Carolyn Bock, William Zappa, Brad Byquar, Alex Henglet, Jeff Kovski, Bruno Stepnell, Warwick Sadler, Simon Wilton, Richard Aspel, David Tredinnick, Terry Carter, Russell Frost, Steve Fielder, Simon J. Hill. (Phaedra Cinema/Australian Film Finance Commission/Media World Features/Beyond Films/Film Victoria; Colin J. South, John Tatoulis; Australia)

This good-looking Australian sci-fi effort mixes the futuristic dystopia subgenre with elements of a psychological thriller to nice effect. Written by Deborah Parsons from a concept by director John Tatoulis, the film is basically a one-character affair, well-acted by lead Peter Phelps, who skillfully rises above generally sketchy supporting players.

The Federated Republic and the New Territories Union have been at war for 40 years, and the results are merely more killing. Industrialists from both sides got together and formed the Central Union, which negotiated peace between the warring groups. In exchange, they took control of communication. There are still mines all over the desert, and guards patrolling the borders along lines marked by the Central Union Treaty. Add to this the constant risk of toxic contamination, and you've got a really nasty situation.

The story focuses on a Central Union soldier, Leo Megaw (Phelps), who is sent to the desert to guard the remote border of Zone 39. Megaw is taking a hallucinatory drug called Novan, whose purpose was for soldiers on suicide missions to be able to spend their last night alive with the girl of their dreams. The trouble is, Megaw's hallucinations are tinged with a good deal of grief, as his wife Ann (Carolyn Bock) was murdered by the government because she threatened to expose a conspiracy. Megaw is determined to get to the bottom of her murder, and hallucinations of her are the only things keeping him functional as the drug and the isolation take their toll.

There's some gore and sex (both Bock and Phelps have full-frontal scenes), but the film is more serious-minded than others of its ilk. Most of Zone 39 is concerned with Megaw's slow fall into insanity and his eventual awareness that the government has decided to kill the entire population with toxic contaminants. Tatoulis directs with skill, and tells a story well, while Phelps is an intriguing lead, playing the growing desperation of his situation in a compellingly understated manner. The production design is fairly convincing (although the voice-activated targeting system seems dubious) while avoiding the overbearing showiness endemic to the subgenre. In all, this is not a bad little movie, although its deliberate pacing may turn off the Mad Max crowd. The US release is from Phaedra Cinema

Incubus (1965), by Leslie Stevens

Image
Esperanto| Hardcoded English subs | AVI | dvd rip | 1:18:00 | 697 MB
Genre: Horror


Incubus is an obscure 1960s oddity of a film thought for some time to be lost. The movie is a fable of good versus evil, the language simple, the characters arche- typal. Marco is a soldier returned home to recover from the wounds of battle. An honorable man, pure of heart, he risked his own life to save his comrades. Now he is tended by his simple, innocent sister Arndis. It would be peaceful and bucolic, but there are demons about.

Right from the opening credits, presented like the rest of the movie entirely in Esperanto, it's clear that this is an unusual American production—even among low-budget, independent horror movies. Its resurfacing has revealed a cultural artifact drenched in evil and tragedy both on and off screen with significant interest for a whole variety of geeks, enthusiasts, and obsessives.
