The Sinful Dwarf (1973/Severin Blu-ray)



Picture: B- Sound: B- Extras: B+ Film: C+



Please Note: This release is limited to only 3,000 copies.



If the title doesn't already suggest, you are definitely in for a wild ride when you pop in The Sinful Dwarf, a 1973 (original XXX) Danish film directed by Vidal Raski. This excellent release from Severin showcases a great new transfer for this once lost film along with some insightful extras that will keep any gore hound happy and the casual horror fan amused.


Included in the release is The Dwarf, a strong international version along with The Abducted Bride, an alternate U.S. version of the film. There's also a bonus feature film from its infamous producers, the ultra-rare, The Blue Balloon, scanned at 2K high def. If you're into gore, drugs, torture, depravity, and smut than this creepy little flick is right up your alley!


In London, a perverted Swedish dwarf who plays the piano lures young women into his alcoholic mother's boarding house, which was a former nightclub. There they are drugged, whipped, turned into heroin addicts and forced into prostitution. Can they topple these evil Dwarf before they meet their grisly end?


Presented in 2K High Definition with a crystal clear English lossless DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) 2.0 Mono track (with the age of the independent production in consideration), the film looks and sounds sometimes fantastic on Blu-ray disc. Though these films were once lost and shot on a low budget, its remarkable how great they look here.



Extras also include:


The Harry Novak Story featurette on the Sultan Of Sexploitation with American Grindhouse director Elijah Drenner

THE BLUE BALLOON – 1973 Feature Film, Never Before Released On Any Home Video Format

THE HOTTEST SHOW IN TOWN – Excerpt From Torben Bille Sex Film

The Search For Torben featurette on the effort To Find Cast/Crew From THE SINFUL DWARF

The Severin Controversy featurette on the Lasting Effects of THE SINFUL DWARF

plus Trailers, TV Spot and a Radio Spot.


I would suggest this odd film to any fan of extreme horror that's looking for something new.
