Writer-director Quentin Tarantino’s kick-ass tribute to hard crime capers is also a pop culture phenomenon that redefined cinema. With its unforgettable cast of characters, hip chart-topping soundtrack, and edgy incomparable style, PULP FICTION took the world by storm, winning the Cannes Film Festival Palme d’Or as well as an Oscar for Best Screenplay. Spanning interweaving tales of low rent hit men (John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson), a gangster’s wife (Uma Thurman), and a desperate prizefighter (Bruce Willis), with a stellar supporting cast that includes Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Ving Rhames, and Christopher Walken, it’s a wildly entertaining and exhilarating adventure with violence and redemption.
Stylish Spanish horror about a maniac 'purifying' the unworthy in a dimly-lit former brothel. Antonio Frau has just served 25 years in prison for killing his girlfriend in the heat of a dispute and, as it quickly becomes plain, he's a rather poor advert for rehabilitation. While inside, Antonio has inherited The Pension Paraiso - a decrepit brothel - from a dead relative which he puts to good use as his own comfortable domicile - even buying a new freezer. On an Internet dating service, he meets and marries a lovely woman and is soon living the straight life, renovating the bordello to its former muted glory. However, the formerly felonious hotelier, it appears, is also running a little sideline in redemption in room H6.. Pretty soon the neighbourhood is a rather uncomfortable place for the pimps, racketeers and doxies that walk its streets.
