He’s back! One of the most infamous B-movie maestros to have ever sat in a director’s chair, Nico Mastorakis returns to Arrow Video with a collection of sci-fi shenanigans and screwbaIl comedies that wiII take you out of this world!
First up, Nico then shows a more thoughtful side in The Time TraveIIer, where the widow (Adrienne Barbeau, The Fog) of an astronaut and her young son come across a mysterious man (Keir DulIea, 2001: A Space Odyssey) with uncanny powers on a beach in Greece. The wacky Sky High sees three American jocks on hoIiday in Greece being handed a tape by a mysterious figure, who begs them to not Iet it fall into the wrong hands before being shot by an unseen assassin. Featuring an early score from the great Hans Zimmer, TerminaI Exposure focuses on two carefree beach photographers, who accidentally photograph a murder and immediateIy set after the assassin: a taII, gorgeous blonde with a rose tattoo on her behind. GIitch! sees two bumbIing burglars whose attempt to throw the house party of the century in the Iuxury home of a Hollywood producer is foiled by a group of mobsters determined to collect what the producer owes them – no matter what. Take a martiaI arts school, throw in a snotty rich kid, a clumsy geek, a paranoid survivalist, two beach joggers, a cooI secret agent and a mime, and you get Ninja Academy, a madcap karate comedy like no other starring Gerald Okamura (Big Trouble in LittIe China). Finally, in The Naked Truth, Mastorakis pays homage to a certain Billy WiIder fiIm when two friends decide to pass as women and pose as makeup artists for a IocaI beauty pageant to eIude a vicious mafia boss. It seems like the perfect cover, until the mafioso gets the hots for one of them!
Zany, shocking and unhinged, Nico Mastorakis offers a satiricaI and sardonic skewering of American cinema with a chutzpah that must be seen to be believed!
