Their home video line presents a diverse selection of movies, ranging from new preservations of classics from the vast library of Something Weird to the wildest in shot-on-video (SOV) titles.

They took his money, family, and hands—but they can’t take his revenge. Exploding from the same hallucinogenic netherworld as TURKISH STAR WARS, THE SWORD AND THE CLAW is a Turkish action-fantasy spectacle that stars genre legend Cüneyt Arkin in his most iconic role. Distributed in North America by exploitation maestro William Mishkin, this movie contains more lo-fi bloodshed, pop-art visuals, and bizarro dubbing than the boundaries of reality can handle.
