Bring in the New Year With an Arthouse Horror Classic, the Wu-Tang Clan, and more on ARROW

PUNCH AND KICK OFF THE NEW YEAR WITH YOUR FAVOURITE COCKTAIL

AN ARTHOUSE HORROR CLASSIC, A KUNG-FU BONANZA, A WU-TANG CLAN DOC, ANDY SIDARIS B-MOVIE MAYHEM, JOE LYNCH SELECTS & MORE, STREAMING ON ARROW THIS JANUARY

ARROW starts the New Year with a bang in January, with the mysterious, absurd, eccentric and staggeringly beautiful slice of arthouse horror Singapore Sling. Director Nikos Nikolaidis’ perverse mix of ancient Greek Tragedy and demented fairytale, starring Michele Valley and Meredyth Herold, unsettled critics and censors in 1990, but has since built a devoted cult following among audiences with a taste for the transgressive. Combining elements of noir, black comedy, exploitation and eroticism, this is a cinematic experience like no other – and, if you dare, you can experience it streaming exclusively on ARROW. You have been warned…

Next in January, martial arts meets historical intrigue in Mei-Chun Chang’s action packed Dynasty, an eye-popping spectacle originally released in 3D, with all manner of objects flying at the screen as a young monk goes on the vengeance trail. If that doesn’t sate your appetite for fists flying, also streaming in January are Golden Ninja Warrior, Furious Slaughter, Fury in Storm, and Golden Exterminator, Snake Fist of a Buddhist Dragon, Super Master vs The Evil Dead, as well as Knight Errant and Heaven’s Hell. Talk about a knockout selection.

And the fighting talk doesn’t end there – in Wu Tang Clan – Da Mystery of Kung Fu, the members of the pioneering hip hop group discuss how kung fu films shaped their musical philosophy and lyrics, intercut with clips from martial arts classics.

There’s even more action in January courtesy of one man filmmaking army Andy Sidaris. If you’re, as Paste magazine suggests “really in the mood for is a shamelessly tawdry action movie full of scantily clad women shooting huge guns”, then ARROW’s line-up of Sidaris epics – Hard Hunted, Hard Ticket to Hawaii, Guns, Do or Die and Fit to Kill – will fit the bill. Shamelessly entertaining, fast-paced and explosively fun, set in irresistible locales and featuring a cast of B-movie icons, including Dona Speir, Julie Strain, and CHiPs legend Erik Estrada, these films are the perfect antidote to the January gloom.

Also showing: Hitchockian thrills in the little seen and unmissable 70s giallo Puzzle; more outrageous action in Enemy Gold, directed by Andy Sidaris’s son Christian Drew Sidaris; and The Return of the Living Dead’s Jewel Shepherd in the cult erotic romance Christina.

Seasons in January include:

Joe Lynch Selects – where the filmmaker (Wrong Turn 2: Dead End, Suitable Flesh, Mayhem) takes his pick from the ARROW catalogue with titles including Deep Red, Mute Witness, Dead or Alive, The Woman and El Duce Tapes.

Dubbed Fu, celebrating all the Lethal Masters, Storming Swords, Fiery Fists and everything that puts the Fu in Furious with titles including Dynasty, Heaven’s Hell, Knight Errant, Snake Fist of a Buddhist Dragon and Super Master vs Evil Dead.

Popcorn & Punches, casting the spotlight on forgotten 90s action movie heroes who deserve a second chance to save the world, with titles including Fit to Kill, Hard Hunted, Do or Die, Guns, Hard Ticket to Hawaii.
