UK Quad for Q The Winged Serpent

Another old classic re-released in an improved R1 version is Q The Winged Serpent.

This was made in 1982 by Larry Cohen (writer of the more recent Phone Booth), and features the title character killing assorted NYC residents as well as a whole lot of other plot points which would look crazy if I wrote them down.

Michael Moriarty’s piano-playing crook is his finest hour and he’s supported well by David Carradine and Richard Roundtree, even if they all look puzzled as to exactly what they’re doing in the movie.

The image here isn’t much better than on the previous DVD release, but we now get a commentary by Cohen, who proves to be almost as entertaining as the movie.
