Plot
Summary: |
THE GREEK FANTASTIQUE Dimitris Panayiotatos is the only
Greek film maker to have specialised in film noir, fantasy and sci-fi. He has
produced and directed documentaries, TV series and feature films and has created
a consistent and compelling body of work over more than thirty years.
This
DVD brings together his 1990 feature film Lovers Beyond Time, as well as an
episode of the Twilight Zone style TV series Tales of Love and Terror. The disc
also includes his 2009 feature length documentary on the history of Greek genre
cinema and an interview with the director where he discusses his own career and
the difficulties of working in genre cinema in Greece, a country where such
productions have always been marginalised.

Disc Special Features:
The disc includes: LOVERS BEYOND TIME –
1990, Feature film, 80 minutes Sylvia and Angelos have an intense
relationship. Too intense for Sylvia, who breaks it off. Three years
later, with Angelos dead, Sylvia lives with a doctor and works for a
record company. Her new life is suddenly invaded by a succession of
bizarre events: strange deaths occur around her and she experiences a
series of involuntary orgasms, as though a man she can feel but not see
is making love to her - in the street, at work, in her car. All of this
seems connected in some way with a mysterious musician she is trying to
track down, a man who constantly evades her; until one night her phone
rings… With influences ranging from early Cronenberg to Italian
erotic thrillers of the 1970s, the film is a journey into the dangerous
world of the irrational, where time contracts and expands and where
people are at the mercy of natural laws that change suddenly, violently
and without warning. STRANGERS IN A STRANGE LAND
– 2009, documentary, 90 minutes This ground-breaking and important
documentary reveals the hitherto untold story of Greek genre cinema over
the last 50 years, dealing with Film Noir, Thrillers, Fantasy films and
Sci-Fi. It includes a wealth of interviews with directors, writers and
critics and clips from more than 50 films. Very little of the
information included here has been available before outside Greece and
it will be essential viewing to anyone interested in the wider world of
genre cinema. THE EROTIC, THE FANTASTIC – 2017,
interview, 25 minutes An interview with director Dimitris
Panayiotatos where he talks about his own career, studying film in Paris
in the 1970s, writing and publishing books and magazines on sci-fi and
fantasy cinema and the difficulties of working in the fantastic
genres in a country where comedy is king. THE LAST MEAL
– 1988, TV episode, 25 minutes An episode from a Greek “Twilight
Zone” style TV series called Tales of Love and Terror.
