6. The Asphyx (1972)

Episode 6 of Season 4! Host, Gratton Conwill and special guest, Matt Fields discuss The Asphyx (1972). The Asphyx is a British sci-fi horror film released December 5th, 1972. Peter Newbrook directed while his good friends Christina Beers, Laurence Beers, and Brian Comport did the writing. Like other movies on this year’s list, The Asphyx fits into the gothic sect of the horror genre. Some characteristics which make horror movies gothic are, oppressive settings, supernatural phenomena, and a battle between humanity and the forces of evil. With very little information available about this movie via the internet, this brief description of Gothic horror will have to be enough. When The Asphyx released, the US and the UK received different cuts of the film, with the UK version being the shorter of the two. For years the coveted extended american cut was only available through poor quality fan edits, but today we watch The Asphyx in its fullest form courtesy of Kino Lorber. Starring the likes of Robert Stephens, Jane Lapotaire, and many more, this could only be The Asphyx .
