The 101 Films x AGFA range is back with a vengeance in July with a mindbending slice of sci-fi sexploitation from Argentina and a beloved piece of kung fu DIY moviemaking from Columbus, Ohio’s William Lee.
The first run of both titles comes with a limited edition ‘o-ring’ – so pre-order to avoid missing out!
THE CURIOUS DR. HUMPP
THE CURIOUS DR. HUMPP isn’t a movie – it’s a rite of passage. Easily one of the most brainbreaking sensory overloads in exploitation history, the story follows Dr. Humpp and his army of grotesque monsters as they kidnap couples and drain their “blood forces of sex” to keep the doctor eternally young. Directed by the prolific Emilio Vieyra in Argentina, this movie combines artful gothic horror with unhinged sex, comic book pulp, and a talking brain in a jar. Plus a monster who plays the guitar.
Basically, this is what might have happened if Mario Bava collaborated with Doris Wishman after an acid binge. AGFA + Something Weird are thrilled to present a brand new restoration of this iconic sex-horror classic, complete with a new commentary track from filmmaker Frank Henenlotter (BASKET CASE). Plus LA VENGANZA DEL SEXO, Vieyra’s original “horror” cut of THE CURIOUS DR. HUMPP in its original Spanish language with English subtitles.
Special Features:
• Newly scanned & restored in 2k from its 35mm internegative
• Commentary track with filmmaker Frank Henenlotter (BASKET CASE)
• Bonus Movie: LA VENGANZA DEL SEXO – 2K restoration of the original cut of THE CURIOUS DR. HUMPP from a 35mm fine grain lab print
• Brain damaged shorts and trailers from Dr. Humpp’s laboratory
• Reversible cover artwork
THE CURIOUS DR. HUMPP will be released by 101 Films x AGFA on 18th July 2022 and is available to pre-order via their website here:
