A product of the late 1960s French avant-garde, marked by decadence, surrealism and a loose reworking of THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME
MEMORIA
Quite simply one of the weirdest, most confounding movies of all time!
BORN OF FIRE
A British made exercise in Eastern-flavored weirdness that’s not a bad movie, but it could definitely have used a more adventurous treatment.
No-Budget Sci-Fi Cinema: Ten Good Examples

AVENTINE
A most interesting science fiction pastiche, consisting of stories set in and around an interplanetary resort called Aventine.
