No one has done the quality work with Franco's films that Mondo Macabro has, with their recent editions of Sinner: Diary of a Nymphomaniac and Lorna the Exorcist being prime examples. I cannot wait to check this one out! Here are the details:
Hunting Humans Was Her Favorite Game...and May Become YOURS!!!!
COUNTESS PERVERSE
Jess Franco's 1973 classic receives an official DVD release and a sparkling transfer!
(New York; May 2, 2012) Mondo Macabro is proud to present the official director's cut of Jess Franco's outrageous and delirious "Countess Perverse." Newly restored from a rare camera negative, this limited-edition DVD arrives on June 12th with a S.R.P. of $24.99.
In the "Countess Perverse" aka "La comtesse perverse" (1973, France, 78 min.), a pair of decadent and debauched aristocrats turns their private island into a human hunting ground where they can stalk their naked prey. As each victim is murdered, their carcass is then cooked and fed to their guests; simply delicious! What the unsuspecting visitors don't realize is that they will soon become the next evening's "meal," eventually fighting for their lives in a shocking and flesh-baring cat-and-mouse game. With suave actor Howard Vernon ("Seven Women for Satan") and the stunningly sexy Alice Arno ("Justine de Sade"), the "Countess Perverse" delivers Jess Franco-sized, wicked entertainment packed with sex, sleaze and outrageous behavior.
