ARROW Video, the go-to streaming service for aficionados of genre films, is thrilled to announce its lineup for May 2024. This month, subscribers in the US, Canada, the UK, and Ireland are invited to explore a meticulously curated selection of films that span new titles, exclusive releases, and deep dives into the tastes of filmmakers whose work has shaped genre filmmaking.
Highlight of the Month: Quarxx’s “Pandemonium”
Leading the charge this May is the exclusive ARROW release of Quarxx’s French macabre horror, “Pandemonium.” Drawing inspiration from Dante’s Inferno and Milton’s Paradise Lost, “Pandemonium” is a multi-textured existential fantasy that melds visceral horror, disturbing fairy tale elements, wry comedy, and dark thriller nuances. This film, known for its aesthetic brilliance and relentless macabre, premiered at Neuchâtel and continued to make waves across major film festivals like Fantasia and FrightFest.
“Pandemonium” is available from May 27, complete with a host of brand new extras, providing a fresh and enriching viewing experience. This release is a testament to ARROW’s commitment to bringing unique, thought-provoking content to its viewers.
Jennifer Reeder Curates May Selections
Starting May 3, Jennifer Reeder, the visionary behind films like “Perpetrator” and “Knives and Skin,” will share her handpicked selections on ARROW. Dubbed as “Campy Culty Chaos,” Reeder’s choices reflect her affinity for allegory, the visually stunning, and narratives that push the boundaries of conventional storytelling. Some of the standout titles include “Switchblade Sisters,” “The Sacred Spirit,” and “Lady Morgan’s Vengeance.”

Throughout May, subscribers can enjoy a blend of iconic genre films and discover new voices through short films and feature presentations. Notable classics like “Spider Baby” and “Eaten Alive” will be showcased alongside underseen gems such as “The Host” and “The Adventures of Denchu-Kozo,” providing a comprehensive look at the evolution of genre cinema.
