Goredrome Pictures is proud to announce the release of Opera Mortem, the infamous haunted film directed by the mad English painter David Fleas in the 1970s.
The film comes in a Limited Mediabook edition (Cover A, B and C + Slipcover, 2 cards, 2 Blu-ray discs) also with an Anaglyph 3D version; 15 minutes of the original, not manipulated video and the 3D anaglyph glasses.
Opera Mortem will be available for pre-order on Goredrome Pictures and TetroVideo official websites starting from midnight on 24th December 2023 to midnight on 5th January 2024.
Once the pre-order has closed, the copies will no longer be available.
Originally shot during almost 10 years in super-8 mm and VHS, the film was screened only one time in the 1973 at the Nottingham’s Odeon Film Theatre.
The rights of the footage have been acquired in 2015 by Italian discoverer Giovanni Mele after a long battle with Fleas’s son and heir and then it was digitally remastered and restored in 2k.
Raw images and elegant literary quotations with references to suicide: this is Opera Mortem, a surrealist/dadaist film, which intertwines the death visions of a suicidal girl with those of a necrophilic serial killer.
“Oddly hypnotic, the aesthetic has a way of creeping under your skin and blurring the lines between artistic expression and visual violence“. – GrimoireOfHorror
