Beginning at midnight on December 24 and ending on January 5, 2024, on the sites Goredrome Pictures and TetroVideo pre-order of Opera Mortem (UK – 1973), il film satanico girato in Super 8mm e VHS da David Fleas negli anni '70.
Opera Mortem will be available in the fine Mediabook edition with 3 different covers and 2 Blu-ray discs.
The copies made will be only those ordered during the pre-order period, and once it ends, this edition will no longer be available for purchase.
For the first time there will also be the unreleased 3D anaglyphic version (+ goggles) developed according to the wishes of the late mad artist. Also in the extras will be 15 minutes of footage previously manipulated in post-production and thus revealed for the first time in the original version.
Filmed over a period of ten years by the mad English painter David Fleas, Opera Mortem had only one screening in 1973 at Nottingham's Odeon Film Theatre, an event during which several people tragically lost their lives soon after the premiere.
After four decades of oblivion, this extreme surrealist/dadaist/experimental film emerged into the light in 2015 thanks to an Italian collector.
Called "a kind of metaphorical transposition of a black magic ritual" by an occultist, Opera Mortem is a concentration of gruesome content, explicit pornography, gore, crude images, and literary quotations with references to suicide in which the death visions of a suicidal girl merge with those of a necrophilic serial killer.
