99 WOMEN (4K Restoration)

For this notorious entry in the women-in-prison genre, director Jess Franco (Marquis de Sade’s Justine) assembled an international cast including Maria Schell (The Odessa File), Luciana Paluzzi (Thunderball), Rosalba Neri (Lady Frankenstein), and Maria Rohm (Venus in Furs). Academy Award winner Mercedes McCambridge (Johnny Guitar) and Herbert Lom (The Dead Zone) co-star as the authoritarian wardens of a remote island prison where tensions simmer and survival depends on endurance and resilience.

Blending melodrama, brutality, and Franco’s signature stylized direction, 99 Women became one of the most controversial European exploitation films of its era and was heavily censored internationally upon release.

Blue Underground presents the Unrated Director’s Cut in a brand-new 4K restoration, accompanied by extensive bonus features.
