KEMEK (vhs) David Hedison (the Fly), cult and 50 similar items

Cassette is nice and clean, pre-viewed for quality and was a little bouncy in the begining, tweaked the tracking up which seemed to help. Could be in the transfer itself which is a little grainy. Box has been cut and mounted in a white, hard plastic clamshell display case. It has a small X in yellow marker on the bottom right spine. Out Of Print (OOP) and no longer being manufactured in any format. Especially beware of the dvd-r (read made-on-demand). These will not play in recordable devices, use the same sourceprint as this vhs, no special features, random chapter stops rather than carefully placed and are kind of pricey for being similar to a bootleg. Most of this confusing movie is an on/off flashback. There's a nightmare in a flashback and a B W flashback within a flashback. Star Mary Woronov has gone on record as saying it was "unfinished", so that explains things, sort of. A man (Cal Haynes) and a detective (Charles Mitchell, from 'Porky's') visit Mary Wonderly (Woronov) and get drunk as she relates flashbacks, set in Naples, about an experimental pleasure drug and how Marisa Love (Alexandra Stewart) died. Mary (who wears differant clothes in nearly every scene) works for a blond (Helmut Schneider), and David Hedison is an unshaven writer whose friend is killed. Hedison has a bad-trip scene, and a futuristic (?) videotape looks suspiciously like an 8-track tape. It was filmed in Canada and Italy. The music is by the Modern Jazz Quartet, and the original "Nowhere to Run" is the theme song.
