Film Distribution
Murawski runs Grindhouse Releasing, a company that restores, preserves, and distributes classic cult and Euro-horror films. Murawski's partner at Grindhouse was actor/director Sage Stallone before his death. Murawski also runs his own distribution arm, Box Office Spectaculars. The two labels have digitally remastered classic cult horror and independent films such as Make Them Die Slowly (aka Cannibal Ferox), Lucio Fulci's spaghetti-horror masterpiece, E tu vivrai nel terrore (aka The Beyond) as well as Cannibal Holocaust, I Drink Your Blood (1970) (directed by David E. Durston), and director Juan Piquer Simón's cult horror film, Pieces. The company is currently presenting a theatrical release of An American Hippie in Israel and Duke Mitchell's previously unreleased independent feature, Gone with the Pope. Box Office Spectaculars and Grindhouse has also handled the theatrical re-release and negative restoration of director Sam Raimi's cult horror film, The Evil Dead as well as the digital restoration (in association with Columbia Pictures/Sony) of the rare spaghetti western The Big Gundown starring Lee Van Cleef and The Swimmer starring Burt Lancaster.

Famous quotes containing the words film and/or distribution:
“The obvious parallels between Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz have frequently been noted: in both there is the orphan hero who is raised on a farm by an aunt and uncle and yearns to escape to adventure. Obi-wan Kenobi resembles the Wizard; the loyal, plucky little robot R2D2 is Toto; C3PO is the Tin Man; and Chewbacca is the Cowardly Lion. Darth Vader replaces the Wicked Witch: this is a patriarchy rather than a matriarchy.”
—Andrew Gordon, U.S. educator, critic. “The Inescapable Family in American Science Fiction and Fantasy Films,” Journal of Popular Film and Television (Summer 1992)
“The question for the country now is how to secure a more equal distribution of property among the people. There can be no republican institutions with vast masses of property permanently in a few hands, and large masses of voters without property.... Let no man get by inheritance, or by will, more than will produce at four per cent interest an income ... of fifteen thousand dollars] per year, or an estate of five hundred thousand dollars.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
