Siew Lup (2016) deserves a US release.
I can't believe this film doesn't have a Blu-ray I can buy. I know there is a German release but it doesn't have English subtitles (I'll still buy it but dang it come on). Please some company out there give this a proper release. I love this film and what this filmmaker is doing. It seems like there isn't any horror from Singapore really and even in the world, there isn't much erotic horror especially these days (yes, I love Jess Franco and Jean Rollin but we get almost nothing now). Siew Lup is very well done and I hope it gets some more attention. The poster, just by itself, is completely awesome and captivating. I really want to own a physical copy of this particularly with some bonus features. It reminds me of The Untold Story but a lot more sexy and grounded. Let's not wait until 40 years from now to show this some love like we have with Franco and Rollin. People are always way too harsh on new releases while treasuring past ones that critics trashed back in the day.
