Unknown World (US/CA): As the world teeters on the brink of nuclear annihilation, a team of experts drills into the Earth to find a new ecosystem where humanity can survive.
Kin-Dza-Dza! (US/CA): Director Georgiy Daneliya’s existential Soviet-era sci-fi comedy about two average Muscovites – a plainspoken construction foreman (Stanislav Lyubshin) and a Georgian violin student (Levan Gabriadze) – who are mysteriously teleported across the universe to the planet Pluke, a desert world whose words for “good” and “bad” are the same and where common wooden matches are tremendously valuable.

Over the course of a year she wrote, produced, directed and edited a wildly ambitious, feature-length sci-fi action thriller for only $250. But when she convinced her employers to broadcast the finished film, PHOBE became a local sensation and remains one of Canada’s most infamous cult hits.
The Shape of Things to Come (US/CA): The time is the tomorrow after tomorrow and mankind has now populated the Moon, where vast domed cities have been built on what was once a wasteland.

Fulci Talks (US/CA): In this extensive interview, legendary Italian director Lucio Fulci offers insight into his prolific career. The maestro relates anecdotes about his early life, his entrance into the world of cinema, the various film genres in which he worked, his contentious relationship with fellow legend Dario Argento and other topics.
Fulci For Fake (US/CA): He’s been called “Italian Genre Cinema’s Most Unfairly Neglected Director” and “The Italian Ed Wood.” Now Luigi Cozzi tells his own story, from his sci-fi obsessed childhood and collaborations with Dario Argento to his rise as writer/director of such sagas as STARCRASH, CONTAMINATION, HERCULES, PAGANINI HORROR, THE BLACK CAT, and his first film in 27 years, BLOOD ON MÉLIÈS MOON.

On November 21, a different kind of power rises on ARROW.
SUPER ARROW (US/CA) launches up, up and away with a retrospective of superior superhero movies!
Titles include: Super Inframan, The Return of Swamp Thing (in a new 4K restoration), The Return of Captain Invincible, Strega.
November 24 continues Arrow Video’s appreciation of Hong Kong action with four classics from the Shaw Brothers Studio their ARROW debut with a new 2K restoration.
The Battle Wizard (US/CA/UK/IRE): Pao Hsueh-li, the trusted co-director for several of Chang Cheh’s most memorable productions (including The Water Margin), here creates one of his own. A brother who loves books and a sister who loves swords must face a yellow-robed warrior, the Red Python, a sinuous snake-charmer, and a silk-masked beauty (who must kill or wed the first man to see her face) before they can bring peace to their battle-addled family in this special, cliché-smashing production.
Demon of the Lute (US/CA/UK/IRE): The “Scenario and Directed By” credit is rare, but Lung Yi-sheng warranted it for two memorable Shaw movies starring the lovely and lethal Kara Hui. This is the first – a beautiful fight fantasy of lute demons, magical arrows, bottomless abysses, an arduous quest, hermaphrodites, a villain named “Red-Haired Evil,” and a mischievous knight named “Old Naughty.” It’s little wonder Lung also directed, since another director might inadvertently deflate this delicate, but delightful, confection.
Portrait in Crystal (US/CA/UK/IRE): The master of the modern day crime thriller lends his directing skills to this amazing kung-fu crime fantasy. Hua Shan impressed audiences with such films as The Criminals trilogy, then dazzled them in an entirely different way by helming the superheroic Super Inframan and Flying Guillotine 2. He combines those two genres in this “Martial Arts World” adventure of a mystical mass murderer loose in the underworld. Noble Pai Piao discovers that the killings are the work of a living statue trained to assassinate by the titular demon… and that more murderous statues are on their way if he doesn’t stop them. The poison darts and booby traps start flying as the heroes struggle to discover the real kung-fu criminal behind the deaths.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (US/CA/UK/IRE): Despite the worldwide success of Star Wars and Star Trek, science fiction is one genre which has seemingly passed the world of Hong Kong cinema by. Well, not entirely! Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is an extremely rare example of science fiction Hong Kong-style, and it is unlike any sci-fi flick you’ve ever seen before. The gorgeous Cherie Chung is the victim of an alien abduction; the wacky Yi Lei is a detective whose strange behavior makes him want to leave this world and enter the next. A chance encounter leads the two to enter a suicide pact, with results that touch on such issues as the nature of fame and the reality of science fiction. It’s truly out of this world, and one of the more unusual movies to emerge from the New Wave that swept Hong Kong cinema in the early 1980s.
On November 28, ARROW debuts a new monthly series with ARROW AFTER DARK. Each month, ARROW will debut some of the most infamous and underseen erotic films. ARROW After Dark launches in November in North America, with UK and Ireland access to follow.
