Special Bundle and Sale Pricing on Select Products Continues THROUGH SUNDAY ONLY !
3 NEW Neon Eagle Video Blu-ray titles available for pre-order NOW at both Cauldron-films.com and DiabolikDVD.com! Neon Eagle Video returns with its biggest and most explosive set of releases yet! All of them making their worldwide Blu-ray debuts! DIAMOND NINJA FORCE / DEMON’S APARTMENT – The next in our line of deluxe editions of restorations from the IFD catalog is Richard Harrison ninja cut-and-paste mind-melter, a sort-of sequel to the infamous NINJA TERMINATOR! Also included in this set is its truly wild ‘source film’ DEMON’S APARTMENT, a sleazy and strange ghost flick from mid-80s Taiwan. GO FOR BROKE - next up is another rescue from VHS-only hell, a boisterous pop-action extravaganza from Japan in the 1980s! This one pits high school nerds and their tough girl bodyguards against a crew of motorcycle miscreants! GO FOR BROKE is a total blast from start to finish, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring back out of obscurity in a new 2K restoration. A TRUE STORY OF THE PRIVATE GINZA POLICE – And finally, we bring you the latest in our line of excavations from the famous Toei studio in Japan, and our first yakuza eiga! And this one is a doozy, a scorching portrait of survival and betrayal in an almost apocalyptic post-war Japan. Quite simply one of the best and most insane films of this particular genre. All three come in exclusive limited editions available only from the Cauldron Films website and DiabolikDVD, either separately and together in a specially-priced bundle deal for a limited time. Additionally, there is a sale on the entire NEV back catalog! As well as a brand-new t-shirt and as a wonderful surprise - the return of THE UNINVITED GUEST OF THE STAR FERRY, previously only available as part of the deluxe NINJA TERMINATOR limited edition! We’re only doing 1000 of these and then they’ll be gone forever. Thanks for your support!! Neon Eagle Video / Cauldron Films

***SURPRISE ANNOUNCEMENT!*** The return of THE UNINVITED GUEST OF THE STAR FERRY (South Korea, 1984)! Once relegated to the bonus disc on our limited edition of NINJA TERMINATOR, this wayward bit of martial arts weirdness is back in print! Only 1000 copies are being made, and then it will be OOP forever. In a plot that borrows from the Bruce Lee classic WAY OF THE DRAGON, UNINVITED GUEST OF THE STAR FERRY stars Im Ja-ho as a rogue-with-a-heart-of-gold out to protect Korean immigrant restauranteurs in Hong Kong from being forced out of business by triad gangsters. Legendary Korean martial artist Hwang Jang-lee plays his nemesis, the boss of the triad, wearing a long blond wig for no apparent reason. Unseen outside of Korea (and maybe Hong Kong and Taiwan) for nearly 40 years, UNINVITED GUEST is mostly (in)famous for being the “source film” for the IFD cut and past action classic NINJA TERMINATOR. Neon Eagle Video is proud to give this film its North American premiere in this limited-edition Blu-ray, taken from the only film element we could source – a battered 16mm print provided to us by IFD Film and Arts, LTD. Details Blu-ray 1080p presentation from a 2K scan of an ultra-rare 16mm print. **Please note: This feature is assembled from a salvaged print that was once thought lost. Due to large amounts of dust, mold, and scratches, what you see is what you get! Please enjoy this “grindhouse presentation” of the film** Korean language audio w/ English subtitles 2:39:1 / 90 minutes / 1984 / Director - Kim Si-hyun / All Region Extras: IFD Ninja Trailer compilation (HD and SD) Purchase here - cauldron-films.com/collectio… **Please note this is a pre-order that is scheduled to ship in December**

***New Announcement#3!*** Up for pre-order now at Cauldron-Films.com (and up later at DiabolikDVD.com when the site is fully operational again)! DIAMOND NINJA FORCE (Hong Kong, 1985) DEMON'S APARTMENT (Taiwan, 1985) DIAMOND NINJA FORCE is maybe the wildest of all the films directed by Godfrey Ho for IFD. Taking footage from three different shoots with Richard Harrison and combining it with a sleazy Taiwanese horror film called DEMON’S APARTMENT (also included in this release), Ho and company have created one of the strangest ninja films ever made. Neon Eagle Video has restored both films from their original negatives / best available film elements straight from the IFD vaults, and they are presented here in HD for the first time ever, along with a host of exclusive extras. DIAMOND NINJA FORCE In more or less a direct sequel to NINJA TERMINATOR, DIAMOND NINJA FORCE finds Richard Harrison battling more bad guys with swords, magic, explosions, and mustaches. His foes, the Black Ninja Clan, are trying to force a real estate heiress to sell her land so they can reclaim the bodies of their ancestors. To help persuade her, they send in the Ghost Ninja, a horny specter who never does anything remotely ninja-like but does get involved in the heiress’ sex life with her husband. Meanwhile, the Black Ninja Clan murders Richard Harrison’s wife for no reason. And you know what that means – REVENGE! Neon Eagle Video has spared no expense in order to restore this brain-damaging classic of ‘cut and paste’ action cinema from its original negative and presents it proudly in this deluxe package. DEMON’S APARTMENT A corrupt real estate baron covers up (literally) the fact that his latest housing project is built over a mass unmarked grave, which comes back to haunt (also literally) the family that moves into one of the bungalows. Mom starts seeing ghosts and freaking out almost immediately upon arriving, while Dad is convinced she’s “just seeing things” and tries to calm her down by having sex with her (which actually seems to work). Meanwhile their empty-headed son is caught between a kindly Granny ghost and a skeevy specter that is anxious to drink his blood, unaware that the kid has hepatitis (?!?). But the real trouble starts when the troubled spirit of a young lady gets all worked up by the sexy-times between perpetually nervous Mom and perpetually horny Dad, and decides to get in on the action, initiating a nasty possession that doesn’t end well for anyone. DEMON’S APARTMENT (a.k.a. GHOST RAPIST, a title we’re not using for obvious reasons) is a sleazed-up POLTERGEIST riff from mid-80s Taiwan that was used as the ‘source film’ for the IFD produced Godfrey Ho joint DIAMOND NINJA FORCE, also featured in this set. The film hits you with an almost constant barrage of insanity, with severed heads in laundry baskets, puking ghosts, gambling addict ghosts, erotic home abortions, cowardly exorcists, and much more. Neon Eagle Video is totally psyched to present this Asian horror oddity on US home video for the first time ever, from an exclusive new 4K restoration. Disc 1 (Blu-ray) Diamond Ninja Force Restored and reconstructed from a 4K scan of the negative and best remaining film elements / 1080p presentation English language audio Optional English SDH subtitles Extras Audio commentary by Samm Deighan Audio commentary by Arne Venema and Mike Leeder The Canadian Ninja: Talking IFD with Pierre Tremblay Ninja Terminator & Diamond Ninja Force Locations Archival trailer 2:39:1 / 90 minutes / 1988 / Director - Godfrey Ho / All Region Disc 2 (Blu-ray) Demon’s Apartment Restored and reconstructed from a 4K scan of the negative and best remaining film elements / 1080p presentation Mandarin language Optional English subtitles Extras Commentary by Podcast on Fire History of Copy and Paste movies visual essay (produced by Somebody’s Favorite) Full color booklet with liner notes by Daniel Budnick and John Charles - limited edition only Rigid slipcase with artwork by Justin Coffee (front cover) and IIan Sheady (back cover) - limited edition only Purchase here - cauldron-films.com/collectio… **Please note this is a pre-order that is scheduled to ship in December**

***New Announcement#2!*** Up for pre-order now at Cauldron-Films.com (and up later at DiabolikDVD.com when the site is fully operational again)! GO FOR BROKE! (Japan, 1985) When a school full of wimps gets repeatedly plundered by a teenage biker gang, the student council decides to hire a crew of “yojimbo” (bodyguards) to defend themselves. Though they expect to find some martial arts dudes to fill the role, what they get instead is a crew of tough-as-nails ladies! The team includes a whip-smart motorcyclist, a stunt-woman who specializes in ninja roles, a homemade weapons expert, and a razor-wielding “sukeban” (girl gang boss). This crew whips the nerds into battle-readiness, and while their first skirmish is a success, the biker gang’s leader emerges from the shadows, revealing a cold-as-ice bitch ready to lead her gang to vengeance. GO FOR BROKE is an entirely bonkers and utterly joyful 80s action film overtly inspired by the Japanese classic SEVEN SAMURAI but with a healthy dose of THE ROAD WARRIOR to give it a wild modern twist. Given it was directed by pink film pioneer Genji Nakamura, you might expect a total sleaze fest but instead GO FOR BROKE is pure triumphant action spectacle all the way, much like the films that inspired it, but with a slick 1980s pop bubbliness that marks it out as its own big-haired beast. Neon Eagle Video is out of its collective mind in excitement to bring you this wonderful blast of Japanese craziness in a worldwide disc debut from a brand new 2K restoration straight from the vaults of the famed Shochiku studio. Details Blu-ray 2K restoration from the negative / 1080p presentation *Additional restoration commissioned by Neon Eagle Video exclusively for this release* Japanese language dual mono audio Optional English subtitles English language audio dual mono Optional SDH subtitles Extras Go for Broke!

***New Announcement#1! *** Up for pre-order now at Cauldron-Films.com (and up later at DiabolikDVD.com when the site is fully operational again)! A TRUE STORY OF THE PRIVATE GINZA POLICE (Japan, 1973) Following Japan’s defeat in WW2, a group of restless former soldiers (Toei yakuza eiga veterans Noburu Ando, Tatsuo Umemiya, Hideo Murota, and Tsunehiko Watase) band together to form a criminal gang in bombed out Tokyo out of sheer desperation, anger, and boredom. Once on top of the yakuza scene in the lawless Ginza district, things quickly fall apart and the former partners begin to turn on each other, leading to an explosive bloodbath finale and the utter degradation of any survivors. A TRUE STORY OF THE PRIVATE GINZA POLICE, directed by genre chameleon Junya Sato, is the nihilistic pinnacle of the jitsuroku or ‘true account’ style of yakuza films from the early to mid-1970s - A wild tumult of blood, drugs, guns, and a shocking disregard for general human decency, captured with a constantly moving handheld camera and scored with a dissonant, improvised jazz-skronk soundtrack. This Neon Eagle Video Blu-ray release marks the US home video premiere and the worldwide disc debut of this undercelebrated classic of the Japanese gangster genre, taken from a 2K restoration straight from the vaults of Toei studio. Details 2K restoration / 1080p presentation Japanese language dual mono audio Optional English subtitles Extras True Accounts and Private Tales: Interview with film critics Tatsuya Masuto & Masaaki Nomura A True Account of Junya Sato: Visual essay by Tom Mes Trailer Full color booklet with liner notes by Chris D. - limited edition only Slipcover with new artwork by Tony Stella - limited edition only Poster - folded Reversible cover with original Japanese artwork Limited to 1500 copies Purchase here - cauldron-films.com/collectio… **Please note this is a pre-order that is scheduled to ship in December**

IT'S BEEN TOO LONG! Sorry for the long silence but have been busy behind the scenes! Coming this July we will have the *biggest ever* NEON EAGLE wave of titles coming for pre-order! Three brand new titles! And we can now reveal one of those titles, another IFD/Godfrey Ho masterpiece DIAMOND NINJA FORCE! This will be a deluxe edition similar to our NINJA TERMINATOR release in a hardcase box with new art, tons of extras, and most exciting of all the original 'source' film DEMON'S APARTMENT! Both DIAMOND NINJA FORCE and DEMON'S APARTMENT will be uncut and freshly restored from the original negatives. In addition to this blockbuster, we'll also have two truly wild Japanese action flicks, one a delirious 80s whopper that's hardly been seen since its original release, as well as the ne plus ultra of all 70s yakuza pictures, absolutely one of the most deranged Japanese crime films of all time. We'll reveal all when they go on sale in July, including the art for the yakuza film, which will be among the last revealed works by the late, great legend Tony Stella. Keep an eye out here and at Cauldron-films.com and Diabolikdvd.com for more info coming soon!
