SINGAPORE SLING (1990)

On a dark and stormy night, Mother and Daughter, a wealthy pair of psychopathic killers with a penchant for murdering their servants, happen upon a badly injured man, laying dying in the mud. Bringing him back to their opulent villa, they begin nursing him back to health; naming him Singapore Sling in the process. As soon as he is "well" enough, the twisted duo begin subjecting him to every manner of torture imaginable. But as each of them develop their own unique interest in their mysterious victim, a perverse love triangle begins to unfold, leading to shocking revelations... (BLU-RAY)

HUESERA: THE BONE WOMAN (2023)

Valeria's joy at becoming pregnant with her first child is quickly taken away when she's cursed by a sinister entity. As danger closes in and relationships with her family become fractured, she's forced deeper into a chilling world of dark magic that threatens to consume her. A group of witches emerge that could be her only hope for safety and salvation, but not without grave risk. (BLU-RAY)

VELVET SMOOTH (1976) (2 DISKS) 

The slinky Ms. Smooth (Johnnie Hill) is the head of a private detective agency specializing in protecting the unprotectable. Her current client is in deep with a murderous numbers racket. So, Velvet Smooth goes undercover -- and occasionally under covers -- to smash the ring. An "R" rating hardly covers it. (BLU-RAY + 4KULTRAHD)

ANIMATION NIGHT IN CANADA V.1 (1965-1985) 

Long celebrated for its groundbreaking achievements in animation, the National Film Board of Canada has earned international acclaim and dozens of Oscar nominations for its animated shorts. During a particularly fertile period between 1965 and 1985, the NFB played an instrumental role in the medium's rapid evolution, breaking new ground with a wildly varied and inventive run of films that are alternately abstract, eerie, entertaining, poetic, poignant, and psychedelic. An eye-opening overview of this seminal period in animated film history, Animation Night in Canada, Vol. 1 features 14 Oscar-nominated classics with style and personality to spare. (BLU-RAY)
