In March, ARROW presents maestro of horror Lucio Fulci’s masterclass in apocalyptic zombie film-making, City of the Living Dead - presented in gloriously gruesome 4K via ARROW. Starring Christopher George and Catriona MacColl, Fulci’s visually stunning classic is drenched in atmosphere (as well as bucket-loads of brains, blood and guts).

Seasons in March include Jake West Selects, with picks from the director of cult horrors Doghouse and Evil Aliens, and documentary features Video Nasties: Censorship Moral Panic & Videotape, Video Nasties: Draconian Days and Mancunian Man, The Legendary Life of Cliff Twemlow. West’s choices include stone-cold classics, video nasties, retro thrills and some bizarre mind-expanding cult delights; Fashion Victims, ARROW’s Spring collection that features Crimes of Passion, There’s Always Vanilla, and The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant; Must Be Losing It, a collection of films that are losing their grip on reality, including Naked Lunch, The Third Eye, and Anguish; as well as a season of cult films in glorious 4K via ARROW-Player.com, including Ringu and Hellraiser.

"Putting together this list of my recommended ARROW favourites has been a bloody delight... but also presented me with a massive dilemma. I haven’t felt such indecision to pick since the heady and good old ‘nasty’ days of browsing lurid VHS video covers in a proper independent video shop! And now I find myself back in a beautifully arcane store with a superlative horror and cult film section…how the hell do I pick favourites out of a selection this great?

So, after hours of browsing the endless treats on offer, I’ve somehow managed to boil it down. So if you also aren’t quite sure what to pick, then here’s my cross-section recommendations of stone-cold classics; video nasty gorey mayhem: retro thrills and some bizarre mind-expanding cult delights that range from brutal to hilarious, and classy to trashy. I love ‘em all! So if you’re looking for guidance or just want to take a chance, you really can’t go wrong with any of these..."
