Dark City 1998 INTERNAL DVDRip XviD-KiNESiS

Staff Pick

First there was darkness…, then came… the strangers.

Hello everyone! First of all, I want to say that these news are dedicated to a special friend I have made. Thank you, I really enjoy the time with you :) Now on with my post!

As u can see nothing good seems to come out of the scene, so I thought myself I might delight you guys with a Staff-Pick to pass some time. The sentence written in bold on top is the first line you hear, when you watch that movie. In front of you a pitch black sky with an ocean of stars reveals itself. Welcome to the Dark City!

I have chosen this movie, because I was always fascinated by the attempt to capture the word “infinity” into graphical elements and the creators of Dark City have done a damn good job. By creating the never ending, always changing city you empathize quiet a lot with John, the main actor, who on his attempt to flee the city is never able to find rest. The same counts for you, this movie has one of the shortest average shot lengths (ASL) of any modern narrative production at 1.8 seconds. There is a cut almost every 2 seconds. This means you never get to analyze a scene properly, because the picture always changes and except that, there is almost total darkness everywhere anyway…

Thank you, dear reader for reading this and have a lot of fun with Dark City

Synopsis: Upon awakening with a start in an icy bathtub in a strange room–with a woman’s dead body inconveniently nearby–John Murdoch can’t remember how he got there. With a police detective hot on his trail and a psychiatrist skulking around, Murdoch discovers that the key to his mystery is the presence of strange extraterrestrial creatures, the Strangers, who are experimenting with the memories of the humans in his city–from which there may be no escape. Ambitious sci-fi noir, with rich production design and a dense, Kafkaesque concept.

Unforgiven 1992 DVDRip XviD AC3-DEViSE

It has been two months since I posted here on Releaselog and I have seen so many things changing, new editors, people leaving the team… At the moment I don’t even have time to comment, not even to post. Once DeViSE is rolling with the old DVDRip’s right now I thought of writing something and posting their latest release. This western was released yesterday and stars Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman and Richard Harris. With an 8.3 average, this movie has the 115th place on the IMDB Top 250. Directed by Clint Eastwood himself and won 4 Oscars back in 1993. Enjoy DEViSE’s super quality and do not forget about me :)

The town of Big Whisky is full of normal people trying to lead quiet lives. Cowboys try to make a living. Sheriff ‘Little Bill’ tries to build a house and keep a heavy-handed order. The town whores just try to get by.Then a couple of cowboys cut up a whore. Unsatisfied with Bill’s justice, the prostitutes put a bounty on the cowboys. The bounty attracts a young gun billing himself as ‘The Schofield Kid’, and aging killer William Munny. Munny reformed for his young wife, and has been raising crops and two children in peace. But his wife is gone. Farm life is hard. And Munny is no good at it. So he calls his old partner Ned, saddles his ornery nag, and rides off to kill one more time, blurring the lines between heroism and villainy, man and myth.

Gladiator 2000 EXTENDED DVDRip XviD-FiNaLe

Seeing as this movie was not posted on here before, and we all know it should, I decided to take the liberty of posting. This must be one of the best and most moving films I’ve ever seen, starring Russel Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix this movie won 5 oscars and another 45 different awards! I’ve never seen the extended edition for some reason but I did see the theatrical cut many times, and it was good.

Quality: This release is 170 minutes long but FiNaLe did a good job with this one, 1012kbps bitrate and typical 128kbps bitrate for the audio. Also there was a problem with the original release so the repacked CD1 is included in both the torrent and NZB so no worries. Enjoy :D

Maximus is a powerful Roman general, loved by the people and the aging Emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Before his death, the Emperor chooses Maximus to be his heir over his own son, Commodus, and a power struggle leaves Maximus and his family condemned to death. The powerful general is unable to save his family, and his loss of will allows him to get captured and put into the Gladiator games until he dies. The only desire that fuels him now is the chance to rise to the top so that he will be able to look into the eyes of the man who will feel his revenge.

Se7en 1995 iNTERNAL DVDRip XviD-UNDEAD

I’ve been meaning to do a ‘Staff Pick’ for this movie for a while now, but wasn’t able to find a torrent for a high quality release. UNDEAD came to my aid with this fantastic release that includes very high quality video and AC3 audio on 2 CDs. If you’ve not heard about this movie, you have been seriously deprived. Maintaining an incredible score of 8.6 on IMDB with over 179,000 voters, #33 in the IMDB prestigious Top-250 movies list, and 85% fresh on RT, famous for its harsh reviewers, this is literally one of the best movies ever made. Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kevin Spacey act-out an engrossing story that peaks only at its very end. The only thing better than this would be the same movie in HD.

Synopsis: Gluttony, greed, sloth, envy, wrath, pride, and lust–these are the seven deadly sins that are being punished with unimaginable cruelty and calculation by an enigmatic killer in David Fincher’s bleak thriller SEVEN. Set in a perpetually gloomy unnamed city, the film follows Somerset (Morgan Freeman), a retiring police detective, as he experiences his final week on the job, reluctantly working with assertive newcomer Mills (Brad Pitt). When an obese man is found brutally murdered in his home, the seasoned Somerset realizes this is no ordinary killing–someone tortured him because of his appetite. Slayings that reflect the sins of greed and sloth soon follow, leading Somerset and Mills on a desperate search to find the mysterious John Doe, who is responsible for these methodical murders. As the case builds to a startling conclusion, both Somerset and Mills become more involved than they ever could have imagined.

3 Asian DVDRips From iLS

4 Asian DVDRips of old movies ranging from 1981 to 2002 appeared today. 2 of them are from Hong Kong and the other is from Japan. I’ll be posting a fourth DVDRip from Japan and iLS soon called Angel Dust which looks most interesting, but currently I’m very busy with the forums. None of these films have previously been released in the scene, so for that we should be grateful to iLS. Its always good to see old releases that are worth releasing during times when a lot of focus lies on new blockbusters. Also don’t expect to see these releases on any public tracker. RS is your best shot if you don’t have private tracker, newsgroup or FTP access. Enjoy.

What.Price.Is.Honesty.1981.DVDRip.XviD-iLS

Three graduates from constable academy are sent to their rookie jobs in a modest sized town. Instructed to enforce a royal edict to end all gambling, the three friends immediately run afoul of a corrupt magistrate and his crooked police force. The police captain regularly confiscates criminal’s loot and shares it with the police officers, he also gives some back to the criminals and lets them free! The three new officers are taken aback by the rampant corruption and are not sure what to do. One wants to fight the system, Sun Chien doesn’t want to endanger his family’s income and the third rookie just wants to quit. Finally they take a vow to uphold justice but immediately are sent to capture the “King of Robbers”. The wicked police captain doesn’t back them up hoping that the “King” will kill the idealistic rookies for him.

Note: The language spoken in this rls is Cantonese, but English and Cantonese subtitles are included. The video quality of this release looks excellent for being a Hong Kong film from the 80’s. I will definitely be checking this one out.

Seeding.Of.A.Ghost.1983.DVDRip.XviD-iLS

A Hong Kong taxi driver suffers after being cursed by a sorcerer he accidentally hit with his cab. After the driver’s wife is raped and killed by teenage hooligans, he pleads with the sorcerer to lift the hex and restore his wife to the land of the living. Otherworldly zombie chaos ensues.

Note: This release is a Horror/Erotica film. To which degree this is erotic I’m not sure of, so I’d watch it alone first if you’re planning to watch it with a younger audience later. You can be sure to find sexual scenes in this though. Again the quality of this release looks very good on the video side. iLS have provided a very good rip. The audio quality is 80kb/s mono. I can only speculate but I’m guessing the source didn’t provide any better sound, which is a shame. Cantonese is spoken in this release as well, and English and Chinese subtitles are included. Enjoy some nice, 80’s horror.

Frog.River.2002.DVDRip.XviD-iLS

Record shop clerk and aspiring DJ Tsutomu searches for his masculinity when challenged to a kendo duel.

Note: Japanese cinema! I’m always happy to see another japanese film released in the scene. I can’t imagine what life would be like without all these international releases so easily at hand for anybody to grab. We would all probably be a lot more narrow minded, which is why the internet and downloading is such a great thing :D . The video quality on this one look good once again, perhaps not as crisp of an image as on the previous ones, which is strange considering this one is from 2002. Audio on this one is a lot better however, with 2 channel and 128kb/s bitrate. This looks like quite an interesting view into Japanese culture, so I’ll enjoy it. Hope you will as well. English subs included.

Night Caller From Outer Space 1965 DVDRip XviD-VoMiT

Here’s an old spooky one from popular group VoMiT. “Night Caller From Outer Space“, made in 1965! There isn’t a lot of info about this film and I think you know why. But I guess if we have any old timers out there this is for you. I don’t know how this is a DVDRip when in the NFO the group doesn’t even know the release date for the DVD, but enough of my talking. Now to the release…

Quality - Movie is in black and white. Video Bitrate XviD 1449 kpbs Audio Bitrate: poor MP3 VBR 89 kpbs.

EDIT - For those interested in the DVD release date, it is July 20, 1999.

In this British sci-fi thriller, a spacecraft from Ganymede, the moon of Jupiter, lands in a small community, and the alien visitors set out to find women. It seems that their population has become dangerously low and they need human females for breeding purposes. When the police begin receiving reports of a number of missing women, it takes quite some time before anyone thinks that there could be a link between the disappearances and a dramatic increase in UFO activities.

Genre: Horror/Sci-Fi

Starring: John Saxon, Alfred Burke, Patricia Haines, Maurice Denham

The Devils Advocate 1997 WS DVDRiP DivX AC3-HLS

Staff picks logo

The year is 1997. Al Pacino still makes great movies, Keanu Reeves is at his prime, Charlize Theron is hotter than ever. This quality Crime/Thriller brings them all together for an exciting ride. If you’re a fan of the genre, or any of these excellent actors, then you will thoroughly enjoy this one.

Note: HLS released this on 2 CDs, including AC3 sound. Subtitles are also added in the torrent. Since this is a DivX release, some of you may be reluctant to try it. I’ve added samples to show you that quality is indeed very sharp, despite the inferior codec used.

Synopsis: Promising young lawyer Kevin Lomax (Keanu Reeves) has never lost a case–even when his client is guilty. When Kevin is seduced away from his sleepy hometown in Florida to work for a flashy, charming lawyer (Al Pacino, in a role he seems born to play), his mother (Judith Ivey) has reservations. But as he works his way up the corporate ladder, Kevin manages to put them aside, along with his wife’s (Charlize Theron) needs and the stirrings of his conscience over knowingly defending the guilty. However, his vanity won’t let him start losing now. As Kevin’s career skyrockets, his neglected wife Mary Ann begins to see evil, violent visions. Hoping a visit from his mother will help, instead Kevin finds himself confronted with a secret his mother has never told him.
