Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 

A feared martial arts champion and breaker of women’s hearts is out to take revenge on the Man for his brother’s death and for supplying heroin to the local orphanage. This tribute and outstandingly entertaining parody of the 1970s blaxploitation genre was a huge hit with viewers at this year’s Sundance festival.

A group of medical students is getting ready to relax at a remote mountain cabin, and it looks as if this will just be another run-of-the-mill teenage slasher movie. Then all of a sudden we are hit with...  This humorous and spine-tingling zombie movie was a favorite at Sundance.

Lena is a cleaner at Heathrow Airport. She misses the bus after work, but luckily her friend Birdie cheerfully says that Lena can spend the night at her family’s nearby house. Lena hardly suspects that she’s putting herself into mum’s and dad’s psychopathic hands. Although it begins like one of Mike Leigh’s social dramas, the movie quickly degenerates into a gory and perverse game of survival.

Dead bodies start turning up at a high-rent university campus, and it takes the police a long time to realize that the serial killer is the perfect combination of Paris Hilton and Hannibal Lecter... The term “fashion victim” inspired the moviemakers to create an original and eccentric comedy that blows fresh air into the tired stereotypes of the blood-drenched horror genre.

Cowboy, Indian, and Horse are inseparable friends living together in a town called Panic. Evocative of childhood, the plastic figurines are brought to life via stop-motion animation. Full of eccentric gags, their irresistible adventures draw on the heritage of Belgian surrealism. One of the hits of the recent Cannes festival.

Opulent adventure, unrestrained destruction, garish colors, exhilarating antics, toy store superheroes, and gigantic robots with phallic contraptions and huge nipples – quite simply, the ultimate family film from Japan. Takashi Miike has finally arrived at the Karlovy Vary film festival!
