MARK OF THE DEVIL (1969) Herbert Lom, Udo Kier, Gaby Fuchs, Reggie Nalder. Lom stars as a sadistic witch finder judge in 18th century Austria. His justice is sadistic, brutal, and mostly against women. This film has a large cult following and is considered a classic in Euro-shock circles. Not for the squeamish. Please…keep this one away from the kids. Rated R for graphic violence. Uncut. Letterboxed. Beautiful color and print. GURU, THE MAD MONK (1970) Neil Flanagan, Jacqueline Webb, Paul Lieber. Guru is a Z-film landmark. A mad priest during the middle ages executes and tortures villagers aided by Olga, a vampire, and an ugly hunchback. Watch for the villager who’s dragged up to the block in tan levis! Flanagan, as Guru, isn’t bad, but the one-eyed hunchback looks like someone squashed silly putty over one eye. Webb. As Olga, turns in what may be the worst vampire portrayal ever. Yet, somehow her awfulness fits in with the surrealness of this outlandish film. Amazing. Color, 35mm.
