The Cremator
-
Blu-ray
A$34.99
This brilliantly chilling film, a unique mix of Psycho, Dr Strangelove and Repulsion, is set in Prague during the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia. It tells the story of one Karl Kopfrkingl (Rudolf Hrušínský), a professional cremator, for whom the political climate allows free rein to his increasingly perverse and deranged impulses for the 'salvation of the world'.
Now more chillingly prescient than ever, The Cremator also contains another of master-composer Zdenek Liška's brilliantly inventive film scores.
Presented from a new HD transfer this region-free Blu-ray special edition includes Herz's rarely-seen 1965 debut short film The Junk Shop (Sberné surovosti), a new audio commentary by Kat Ellinger and a filmed introduction by the Quay Brothers.
