Fully
uncut European print (in French with English subtitles) of this notoriously
edited British anthology
film, adapted from four short stories by R. Chetwynd-Hayes, strung together
around an antique dealer who owns a shop called Temptations Ltd. Most
of his customers are basically dishonest. And the stories deal with the
fate that befalls those who try to cheat him. Stories include "The
Gate Crasher" with David Warner who frees an evil entity from
an antique mirror, "An Act of Kindness" with Donald Pleasence,
"The Elemental", and "The Door."
This was the first
movie for British director Kevin Conner, best known for later helming
the American shock hit "Motel Hell." After the runaway success
of that film, he relocated to Hollywood where he worked exclusively on
television productions. Throughout the '80s, Kevin directed episodes of
HART TO HART, REMINGTON STEEL and MOONLIGHTING before turning to high-profile
made-for-TV movies (e.g., MARCO POLO [2007]). Mr Connor - as of
this writing - is still active in television at age 77.
A British
film in English language; widescreen format, uncut version at 98 minutes,
DVD encoded for ALL REGION NTSC WORLD FORMAT. Extras include theatrical
trailers.
