Girl Boss Guerilla
is a 1972 Japanese film in the '' sukeban'' (delinquent girl) subgenre of Toei's "Pinky violence" style of ''Pink film''. The third in the seven-film ''Girl Boss'' series, it was directed by Norifumi Suzuki and starred Miki Sugimoto and Reiko Ike. Cast * Miki Sugimoto * Reiko Ike * Emi Jō () Critical response Allmovie critic Donald Guarisco calls ''Girl Boss Guerilla'' a "prototypical example of Japan's homegrown 'pinky violence' genre," adding "Miki Sugimoto and Reiko Ike make for charismatic and believable 'tough gal' leads, Suzuki directs the film with vigor, and the finished film benefits from the high production values and slickness inherent to Japanese exploitation films of this era." He warns that the film "isn't for all tastes, mainly because the eroticized S & M torture scenes might make some viewers squirm. Also, the film features sudden bursts of slapstick comedy that will leave others scratching their heads in confusion." Guarisco concludes that the film "is a ...

Trailer (film)
A trailer (also known as a preview, coming attraction or attraction video) is a commercial advertisement, originally for a feature film that is going to be exhibited in the future at a movie theater/cinema.

The trailer format has been adopted as a promotional tool for television shows, video games, books, and theatrical events/concerts.

Audio Commentary
An audio commentary is an additional audio track, usually digital, consisting of a lecture or comments by one or more speakers, that plays in real time with a video. Commentaries can be serious or entertaining in nature, and can add information which otherwise would not be disclosed to audience members. Types of commentary The DVD medium allows multiple audio tracks for each video program. DVD players usually allow these to be selected by the viewer from the main menu of the DVD or using the remote. These tracks will contain dialogue and sound of the movie, often with alternative tracks featuring different language dialogue, or various types of audio encoding (such as Dolby Digital, DTS or PCM). Among them may be at least one commentary track. There are several different types of commentary. The two main types simply define the length of the commentary rather than the type of content. They are: *Partial or scene-specific, which only covers selected scenes of the film. Som ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Poster
A poster is a large sheet that is placed either on a public space to promote something or on a wall as decoration. Typically, posters include both textual and graphic elements, although a poster may be either wholly graphical or wholly text. Posters are designed to be both eye-catching and informative. Posters may be used for many purposes. They are a frequent tool of advertisers (particularly of events, musicians, and films), propagandists, protestors, and other groups trying to communicate a message. Posters are also used for reproductions of artwork, particularly famous works, and are generally low-cost compared to the original artwork. The modern poster, as we know it, however, dates back to the 1840s and 1850s when the printing industry perfected colour lithography and made mass production possible. History Introduction According to the French historian Max Gallo, "for over two hundred years, posters have been displayed in public places all over the world. Visually ...

Box Set
A box set or (its original name) boxed set is a set of items (for example, a compilation of books, musical recordings, films or television programs) traditionally packaged in a box and offered for sale as a single unit.

Sometimes bands release expanded versions of their most successful albums such as Pink Floyd's ''Immersion'' box set versions of their ''The Dark Side of the Moon'' (1973), '' Wish You Were Here'' (1975) and ''The Wall'' (1979) albums.

DVD Region Code
DVD region codes are a digital rights management technique introduced in 1997. It is designed to allow rights holders to control the international distribution of a DVD release, including its content, release date, and price, all according to the appropriate region. This is achieved by way of region-locked DVD players, which will play back only DVDs encoded to their region (plus those without any region code). The American DVD Copy Control Association also requires that DVD player manufacturers incorporate the regional-playback control (RPC) system. However, region-free DVD players, which ignore region coding, are also commercially available, and many DVD players can be modified to be region-free, allowing playback of all discs. DVDs may use one code, multiple codes (multi-region), or all codes (region free). Region codes and countries Any combination of regions can be applied to a single disc. For example, a DVD designated Region 2/4 is suitable for playback in Europe, L ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
