Promotional Material

Originally tapped as a potential successor to Bruce Lee, Hong Kong martial-arts phenom Jackie Chan soon established his own unique screen persona, blending goofball slapstick and bone-crunching kung fu into intricate feats of supercharged athleticism. Tracing his rise from breakout star to full-fledged auteur, these six unabashedly silly, unstoppably entertaining early-career highlights find Chan refining the lovably mischievous image that would make him a global icon, while also assuming greater creative control over his projects--first as his own martial-arts choreographer, and later as a writer-director who set a thrilling new standard for daredevil action comedy.

Promotional Material

Jealousy, vengeance, obsession, cannibalism, and blood-drinking collide in Fascination, director Jean Rollin's decadent fantasy of sex and death. When a thief holes up in a remote château, taking two beautiful chambermaids' hostage, the arrival of his accomplices and the château's aristocratic owners leads to an orgy of violence and ritualistic bloodletting. With its standout performance from Brigitte Lahaie (The Night of the Hunted), as the scythe-wielding Eva, and an evocative score from Philippe D'Aram (The Living Dead Girl), Fascination is one of the purest expressions of Rollin's unique fantastique aesthetic."
