Chinamoon

About This Movie

Chinamoon (1975) is an intriguing piece that showcases an atmosphere of unease that lingers long after the credits roll. The film unfolds at a deliberate pace, allowing its themes of betrayal and paranoia to seep into the viewer's mind. Barbara Linkevitch's direction offers a unique style, blending practical effects with a raw, unpolished aesthetic that feels almost documentary-like at times. The performances have a certain intensity that keeps you engaged, and there's a distinct sense of place that makes the setting almost a character itself. It's not just a film; it’s an experience that leaves you pondering well after it's over.

Chinamoon has seen limited distribution, making it somewhat of a rarity among collectors. Its original release format was on VHS, with very few copies remaining in good condition today. The film's unique style and themes have sparked a niche interest, but it hasn’t hit mainstream recognition, which adds to its allure for serious collectors looking to complete their catalog of lesser-known works.
