Mad Movies 380 - Mars 2024
-En couverture, La trilogie de la vengeance de Park Chan-wook. Alors que Metropolitan ressort en salles d’un même coup Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Old Boy et Lady Vengeance de Park Chan-wook, on en a profité pour revenir en détail sur la fameuse « Trilogie de la vengeance » de l’un des plus dignes représentants de la vague Hallyu qui a frappé le cinéma sud-coréen des années 1990.
-Immaculée : alléluia ! Michael Mohan a accouché d’un beau bébé horrifique qui rend hommage à la nunsploitation et au bis italien tout en offrant à Sydney Sweeney un rôle de nonne inattendu et savoureux. Le réal nous raconte cet heureux événement.
-Bruno Dumont : alors que son ovni L’Empire vient d’atterrir en salles, le réalisateur très philosophe et très nordiste revient sur la création de ce long curieux et réjouissant, plutôt suite de sa série Coincoin et les Z’inhumains que remake de L’Empire contre-attaque.
-Une histoire orale de Road House : il y a presque trente-cinq ans, Road House de Rowdy Herrington – avec un Patrick Swayze fraîchement starifié par Dirty Dancing – déboulait en salles tous muscles dehors. Alors que son remake homonyme avec Jake Gyllenhaal débarque sur Prime Video, on en a profité pour revenir sur la conception de la version d’origine, en compagnie de ses artisans (dont son réalisateur).
-Adam Wingard : attendu au tournant pour Godzilla x Kong : le nouvel empire après un Godzilla vs Kong décevant (et privé de sortie salles), Adam Wingard relate l’élaboration de cette nouvelle (double) grosse pierre à l’édifice du MonsterVerse estampillé Legendary Pictures.
-Le Voyeur : une édition Blu-ray 4K UHD chez StudioCanal fin janvier, puis une ressortie en salles en version restaurée 4K grâce aux Acacias en mars : Le Voyeur de Michael Powell est honoré à sa juste valeur, et c’est plus qu’il nous en fallait pour remonter le temps et nous immiscer dans les coulisses de ce sommet de perversité du cinéma british.
