Description

Oft overlooked in the history of European hardcore, Greece seized on the allure of international distribution to create films which a were cut above the competition; with high production values, original music, and complex narratives. No filmmaker better reflected Greece’s unique take on sex films than Ilias Mylonakos whose twisty and stylish thrillers perfectly balanced graphic eroticism and gratuitous violence. Quality X is proud to present the Blu-ray debut of two of his seminal hardcore features, both newly restored in 4K from their original negatives and available in their longest ever versions. A group of sophisticated international thieves have stolen a large cargo of gold bars; stashing them in the ocean off the coast of Greece. However, as the criminals wait for the right moment to retrieve their riches, tensions, paranoia, and double crossing begins to besiege them, culminating with an ever-increasing bodycount...

Working equally well as bloody Euro-crime and sex film, THE MARK stars Greece’s early king of hardcore, Haris Tryfonas alongside France’s Claudine Beccarie (Exhibition) and Carole Gire (Furies Sexuelles). Filmed in international locales and punctuated by a series of surprisingly gruesome killings, from stabbings to bloody shootouts, and even death by pitchfork, THE MARK is a would-be cult classic waiting for rediscovery.

Beautiful Della has gone to Greece to live with her aunt Marsha. There, she meets the seductive Samantha and her handsome boyfriend, Stefanos. Della soon begins having an affair with Stefanos, who is also trying to bury a murderous past. But when Samantha discovers their affair, she decides to put into play some deadly plans of her own.

Catapulting between a sunny sex drama and a grimy thriller, complete with a grisly axe murder, EROTIC PASSION is a long overlooked Greek-Italian exploitation delight which stars Ajita Wilson (Sadomania), Monica Nickel (Wild Beasts), and Femi Benussi (Bloody Pit of Horror) and is at last available in its never-on-video hardcore version.
