Arrow Video, with sales and distribution expertise provided
by MVD Entertainment Group, has selected Sept. 22 for the Blu-ray/DVD Combo
Pack release of director Carlo Lizzani’s 1967 Spaghetti Western, Requiescant
(aka: Kill and Pray!).
This newly restored edition from the original film negative
features both the original Italian language track (with newly translated
English subtitles) and an English-language dubbed track (also with English
subtitles).
Lou Castel (Beware of a Holy Whore, The
American Friend, etc.) stars as the title character Requiescant, an
orphan raised by a religion man to follow in his footsteps as a preacher.
All goes as planned until the day that the
hero of this tale crosses paths with George Ferguson (played Mark Damon) — a
deviant wretch — and the Bible is set aside in favor of the gun (Romans 12:19 -
revenge is mine, sayeth the Lord).
Bonus Materials include a newly prepared video session with
the film’s star, Lou Castel, and an archival session with the film’s director,
Carlo Lizzani.
