STRAIGHT TO VIDEO PRESENTS WHITE FIRE (1984)

Curators Lieuwe and Levente bring you the ultimate cult night every month with Straight to Video presents… Prepare for a wild cult film from the VHS era, filled with mind-boggling moments, rubbery rarities, and deranged dialogue.

“This film should be in every person’s life. This just might be my favorite WTF film, beating out Miami Connection, Dangerous Men, The Room and Samurai Cop.” – Sean Baker (Anora, Tangerine) in his Letterboxd review of White Fire.

The French are on it again! Jean-Marie Pallardy’s magnum opus is a textbook example of weird Eurosleaze cinema that could only be greenlit in the ’80s. Starring Robert Ginty from The Exterminator and Warrior of the Lost World, hornier than ever, attempting to steal the world’s largest diamond that also happens to be radioactive for some reason. Unless Blaxploitation legend Fred Williamson, who appears out of nowhere halfway into the movie, gets there first!

Witness violent chainsaw fights, Bond-style torture chambers, unbearable temptation and highly questionable screenwriting choices set up against the backdrop of a scorched Istanbul! And maybe after seeing this together, you can help us make sense of the movie’s infamous tagline: “Extermination is the reward of the World’s richest price”!
