{"product_id":"vampir-cuadecuc","title":"Vampir Cuadecuc","description":"\u003cp\u003eMade in Spain while General Franco was still in power and shown\r\nclandestinely, Pere Portabella's extraordinary Vampir Cuadecuc\r\nostensibly follows the filming of Jess Franco's shocker El conde\r\nDracula (Count Dracula, 1970) starring Christopher Lee, Herbert Lom and\r\nthe exquisite Soledad Miranda. This experimental 'making of'\r\ndocumentary and investigation into the myth of the vampire, becomes a\r\npowerful political metaphor for bloodthirsty fascism epitomised by\r\nFranco and tyrants like him, a witty allegory with Dracula as the\r\ndictator whose demise is certain.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDispensing almost entirely with dialogue, Portabella utilises an\r\nabstract, fabulously idiosyncratic soundscape created by renowned\r\nCatalan artist and musician Carles Santos. The effect is surreal and\r\nwondrous to behold.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOur release is presented from a new HD transfer of the film and\r\nfeatures a new and exclusive interview with director Pere Portabella,\r\nplus two short films and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDVD SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv id=\"productDescription\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-small\"\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eVampir Cuadecuc (1971) presented from a new HD restoration from\r\noriginal materials \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eA new interview with director Pere Portabella\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eA new filmed introduction by Will Fowler\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePere Portabella s experimental short films La Tempesta (2003) and\r\nNo Al No (2006).\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eBooklet featuring a new essay on the film by journalist Stanley\r\nSchtinter \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal soundtrack in 2.0 Dual Mono \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e...AND MORE\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n","brand":"Second Run","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54306771140993,"sku":"SECONDRUN118","price":15.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/9050\/5986\/files\/3038319.jpg?v=1747336951","url":"https:\/\/hit.co.uk\/products\/vampir-cuadecuc","provider":"Hit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
