FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THIS RELEASE at our PCASUK NEWS and REVIEW post from APRIL 28th : CLICK HERE!

DIRECTED BY THE VERY TALENTED John Gilling, the film is based on a true story, set in 1828 Edinburgh, Scotland, and the 'work' of surgeon Dr. Knox who practices medical research (!!) with assistance from local murderers Burke and Hare. Hint : They are SNATCHERS, but they are NOT snatching purses or handbags! πŸ˜€ The film received some great reviews when released back in 1960, and still sends more than a chill, when watched even today! I'll be posting a review of Kino's blu ray in the next few days...

NEWS : KINO RELEASES ARTWORK FOR BLU RAY CASE OF 1960 'FLESH AND THE FIENDS' AKA 'MANIAC' BLU RAY!


NEWS: KINO has released artwork design for their much awaited first time blu ray release of a great Peter Cushing1960 film, 'Flesh and the Fiends'! What do you think? This film comes with some extras, but for me, just the chance to see this often forgotten little gem, on blu ray is a plus enough! Produced in what promises to be quite an experience in black and white, it carries a fabulous cast of actors, Cushing, Donald Pleasence, Billy Whitelaw and George Rose all at the top of their game and all giving their best supported by brilliant John Gilling's screenplay and direction. It's OUT on July 7th 2020 and like most KINO CLASSICS releases will be a 'Region A' blu ray. Taking pre-orders now, this one will sell like hot-cakes!


THIS UNDER-VALUED corker, has been struggling around in a very depressing state of ratty, scratched and dusty prints for far too long, so the news of this well timed blu ray release is quite wonderful. . . and here gem of a clip to show you why! Cushing was a master at such scenes as this one. If you like his turn in the 'Tongue slapping of the crusty and opinionated aged residents' in Hammer films, 1969 'Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed'... you'll LIKE this clip which can be found at the =FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE TODAY! . . ! 😊Stay Well AND Dandy Everyone πŸ˜‰ - Marcus
