Controversial German filmmaker Jörg Buttgereit (Nekromantik, Nekromantik 2) takes you into the twisted mind of a deranged sex killer in the last of his feature films to date, 1993’s deeply disturbing Schramm. Lothar Schramm, the so-called “Lipstick Killer”, lies dying in a pool of blood and paint. As he expires, fragments of his life flash before his eyes – his uneasy friendship with the prostitute that lives next door (Nekromantik 2’s Monika M); the brutal slaughter of a pair of doorstep evangelists whose bodies he poses in obscene fashion; his unhealthy pastime of hammering nails into his own manhood. Told in an entirely non-linear fashion, Jörg Buttgereit’s Schramm – with its nightmarish hallucinatory sequences involving severed limbs and gaping, sharp-toothed female genitalia – comes about as close as a film can get to transporting you directly into the world of a sick, disordered mind. 2-DISC DIRECTOR-APPROVED LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS HD transfer overseen by the filmmakers High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation Original uncompressed Stereo 2.0 audio Optional English subtitles Limited edition digipak packaging featuring new artwork by Gilles Vranckx Limited edition certificate Set of 5 exclusive Schramm polaroid postcards Soundtrack CD Limited edition 60-page book DISC 1 [BLU-RAY] - 'SCHRAMM' Archival audio commentary with director/co-writer Jörg Buttgereit and co-writer Franz Rodenkirchen Archival audio commentary with actors Florian Von Gustorf and Monika M Tomorrow I Will Be Dirt: Scenes from the Afterlife of Lothar Schramm (2019) – brand new animated short film sequel to Schramm made by award-winning filmmaker and stop-motion artist Robert Morgan, produced exclusively for this release Take My Body: The Journey of a Blow-up Doll – writer Kier-La Janisse on how she came to be the owner of a particularly interesting piece of Schramm memorabilia Jörg Buttgereit in conversation with Arrow Video’s Ewan Cant at the 2019 Offscreen Film Festival The Making of Schramm – archival behind-the-scenes documentary Mein Papi – Jörg Buttgereit short film available in HD for the first time ever and with optional director audio commentary Jesus – Der Film (1995) – short film segment directed by Jörg Buttgereit Two short films by Schramm producer Manfred Jelinski: Orpheus in der Oberwelt (1970) and Ein Ku'ze' Film übe' Hambu'g (1990) Extensive image gallery Jörg Buttgereit Trailer Gallery DISC 2 [CD] - 'SCHRAMM' SOUNDTRACK - LIMITED EDITION EXCLUSIVE CD featuring the complete Schramm score 60-PAGE BOOK - LIMITED EDITION EXCLUSIVE Exclusive perfect-bound book featuring new writing from Virginie Selavy and Graham Rae, all illustrated with new artwork and original archival stills
