TAG: Sion Sono’s Psychedelic Horror Thriller Lands A Dual Format UK Home Release This November

Eureka Entertainment has unleashed a grand raft of titles it has acquired for lucky movie fans in the U.K., some of which are set for festival screenings in the coming months. One of their titles is an adorned crowdpleaser courtesy of the warped mind of director Sion Sono with surreal 2015 action horror Tag. Loosely adapted from Yamada Yusuke 2001 novel, its applied narrative centers on a young high school girl entrapped between three lives and identities with dark forces in hot pursuit. Sion’s twisted fantasy nod to feminism and popular culture is presented with a touch of action and ultra-gore with an arthouse aesthetic that nonetheless thrills and resonates with loads of entertainment value. Best of all here is that Eureka has announced it for a Dual Format release on November 20 with pre-orders now up and running, and a trailer just below the announcement to show for their […]

Eureka Entertainment Announces Japanese Classic, BAKUMATSU TAIYÔ-DEN For June 12 U.K. Release

Lee B. Golden III

Eureka Entertainment’s Masters Of Cinema rollout continues on June 12 with the U.K. release of Kawashima Yuzo’s 1957 comedy classic, Bakumatsu Taiyô-Den (A Sun-Tribe Myth from the Bakumatsu Era). Pre-orders are now available until then while the new trailer has since been made available with a look at the official box art for its Dual Format Blu-Ray release. Voted one of the top five Japanese films ever made in a critic’s poll by Japan’s leading cinema publication Kinema Junpô, yet barely known in the West, Yûzô Kawashima’s richly funny multi-levelled portrait of Japanese society Bakumatsu taiyô-den [A Sun-Tribe Myth from the Bakumatsu Era] is a glorious rediscovery. Co-scripted by Shôhei Imamura (Vengeance Is Mine), it sharply and comically demonstrates the constants of human nature just as it delineates the tumultuous political times (the 1860s, leading up to the Meiji Restoration) in which they lived. Check out the trailer now!
