Promotional Material Italian exploitation icon Joe D'Amato's outrageous and rarely seen 1978 mondo movie meltdown CRAZY NIGHTS (aka Follie di notte) is one the strangest snapshots of the disco era you'll
ever see. The legendary and controversial performer Amanda Lear appears here as herself, singing her signature dance floor hit Follow Me while D'Amato's camera uses her as an entry point into the glamorous, eccentric, often depraved annals of Rome's
after hours nightclub scene. But that's only scratching the surface. CRAZY NIGHTS then meanders - in true mondo fashion - all over the world, filling the screen with strippers, sex and ritualistic absurdity, all set to the beat of Lear's sultry
cabaret pop sound. Lear - who famously dated David Bowie, was the cover girl for many Roxy Music records and long served as Salvador Dali's lover and muse - was at the peak of her popularity when she signed on to film CRAZY NIGHTS. Originally
pitched as a musical centered around her fame called FOLLOW ME, Lear believed the movie to be incomplete until - to her shock - it turned up in Italian theaters under the name Follie di notte. Horrified to discover that she had been tricked into starring
in a full-blown exploitation film, Lear sued the producers, one of many reasons CRAZY NIGHTS has lapsed into virtual obscurity. Full Moon is pumped to be presenting this delirious and decidedly adult pseudo-documentary in its fully uncut edit,
remastered from the original negative. Get ready for the wildest and weirdest mondo movie ever made! | |

modern-dress Gothic, The Doll of Satan is a gloriously ripe slice of Italian horror, heady with atmosphere and steamy eroticism too. 88 Films are very proud to present this rediscovered genre gem in the UK for the very first time

The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It is a 2021 USA
horror mystery thriller by Michael Chaves
Starring Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson and Julian Hilliard
Uncut and MPA R rated in the US. This was initially rated 18 uncut,
by the BBFC but the distributors preferred a cut 15 rated version for 2021 cinema release. For home video the 4K Blu-ray is uncut but all the other formats are cut. The film is rated 16 uncut by IFCO for Irish cinema release.
BBFC cuts The BBFC commented about the cut UK Version: The distributor chose to reduce bloody injury detail in a suicide scene in order to obtain a 15 classification. An uncut 18 classification
was available.
Of course the BBFC is referring to vertical wrist slitting which is disallowed at 15. See the uncut scene in video from streamable.com . Ben
comments: I've seen the uncut footage and 18 is absurdly harsh. It's demonic possession and *technically* self-harm, but not an attempted suicide at all as the BBFC called it. You see glass and blood on the man's
wrist but no clear sign of process and injury
UK: Passed 18 uncut for strong injury detail, horror:
UK: The UK edit was passed 15 for strong threat, horror, violence after BBFC category cuts:
Uncut in the US US: Uncut and MPA R rated for terror, violence and some disturbing images:

The Films of Olivier Assayas The Films of Olivier Assayas is a film set by Olivier Assayas
Starring
- Disorder
- Winter's Chil
- Irma Vep
- Demonlover
UK: Passed aggregate 18 uncut for:
Promotional Material Now recognised as one of French cinema's finest talents courtesy of such modern classics as Carlos , Summer Hours and Clouds of Sils Maria , Olivier Assayas
started out as a critic and screenwriter before making his debut feature as director in 1986. Disorder tells the tale of a post-punk band whose friendships are tested when a music store robbery turns fatal. It marked Assayas as a talent to be
reckoned with. The intimate story of Winter's Child built on that reputation and showed his remarkable gifts with actors, while in Irma Vep Assayas turned his attention to the French film industry to provide a mid-90s amalgam of François
Truffaut's Day for Night and Rainer Werner Fassbinder's Beware of a Holy Whore , delighting audiences around the world and featuring a stand-out turn by Maggie Cheung playing a version of herself. Meanwhile, the startlingly prescient
neo-noir/cyberhorror masterpiece Demonlover , takes a darker turn to present a chilling exploration of the nexus between sex and violence available at the click of a button, riffing on Cronenberg's Videodrome and with an iconic score by
art-rock pioneers, Sonic Youth. Witty, heartfelt, and daring, Assayas remains one of the most interesting international filmmakers working today. No two films are quite alike. His work is vital, unexpected, and unmissable for any true lover of film.
