Ken Russell helms this graphic 1971 adaptation of a documented witchcraft case, which took place in France in 1634. Outspoken priest Urbain Grandier (Oliver Reed) finds himself accused of seducing a group of hysterical nuns while in demon form by Mother Superior Sister Jeanne (Vanessa Redgrave), who is obsessed with Grandier and driven into a fit of envy when he marries another woman. With the involvement of charismatic exorcist Father Barre (Michael Gothard), the affair turns into a sordid mass exorcism of the tainted convent. With much controversy surrounding its subject matter of religion combined with violence and sex, many cuts were made to the film in order for it to attain certification.
A young poet wishing to take his own life soon finds events have overtaken him in this experimental 1960s drama from director Don Levy. Disillusioned poet Max (Michael Gothard) decides to commit suicide, but rather than making it a quiet affair, Max contacts the local media so that, he hopes, his name will live on. On the appointed day, however, Max suddenly has a change of heart, but with an eagerly expectant media in attendance, he finds that he is no longer in control of events.
Doug McClure triple bill, based on the novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs. In 'Warlords of Atlantis' (1978) McClure plays Greg Collinson, a Victorian explorer and adventurer leading a motley crew of scientists to find the lost continent of Atlantis. Battling sea monsters and fantastical creatures, the crew eventually stumbles across the lost continent and are shocked to discover the Atlanteans' deadly secret. Collinson must now use all of his experience and knowledge to help his crew escape. 'At the Earth's Core' (1976) sees McClure joined by Peter Cushing, playing two explorers attempting to drill through the centre of the planet only to discover the sinister underground kingdom of Pellucidar, where a downtrodden populace are enslaved by the evil Mahars. 'The Land That Time Forgot' (1975) sees a German submarine holding American prisoners in World War One accidentally crash into a mysterious island in the middle of the Atlantic. Exploring this lost island, the mixed crew of Germans and Americans discover a prehistoric landscape untouched by the modern world, where savage dinosaurs and primitive tribes exist in mutual enmity. The Germans and Americans must put aside their own prejudices in order to survive.
When the activating button for a nuclear launch is lost at sea, it is up to James Bond to retrieve it before it falls into the wrong hands. Roger Moore once again plays 007 in this, the 12th Bond outing, director John Glen's first Bond film and the first without an Ian Fleming credit. Highlights include a climb up a sheer rock-face; a car chase down a steep, winding mountain road; an underwater battle; and what might be the greatest of all Bond's celebrated ski chase sequences.
