Netflix’s Under Paris in Hot Water as Legal Battle Continues
Netflix’s mega-hit shark movie Under Paris is in hot water, according to Deadline. French director Vincent Dietschy’s court case over the movie continues after suffering a recent setback. The shark movie, which has had over 85 million viewers since its early June release, ranks as Netflix’s most-watched French feature ever. The problem is that Dietschy has accused the film of being a rip-off of his original concept. Dietschy filed a lawsuit against the film’s producers and agent for plagiarism earlier this year. He alleges they stole his idea without permission or compensation. Dietschy recently sought to have Under Paris removed from Netflix while the case progressed. However, a Paris court recently rejected this request due to a technicality. The lawsuit paperwork named the wrong Netflix entity—the French arm instead of the Netherlands-based international headquarters. While the takedown request was denied, the core lawsuit remains ongoing. The next court hearing is expected in September. Dietschy’s lawyers argue this ruling is problematic.

Movie Review: Dracula, Prisoner of Frankenstein (1972) – Severin Blu-ray
Drac (Jess Franco regular Howard Vernon, who’s appearance here proves my words, as this too is a Franco flick) is back, and he’s doing his fang bang schtick on ye local comely lasses… an action that really sticks in the ass of Dr. Jonathan Seward (Alberto Dalbés)… here filling the traditional Van Helsing role… so much so that he takes a carriage ride to Dracula’s castle and straight up stakes the mother sucker turning him into an ex-bat! Well, nightmare over… right? Wrong. Before the pillow is even cold, Dr. Frankenstein (Dennis Price, who would return to the role in Franco’s The Erotic Rites of Frankenstein a year later in 1973), and his unfortunately horny assistant Morpho (Luis Barboo) slide their asses on into the castle, and immediately reawaken the Doctor’s Monster (Fernando Bilbao) whom they’ve conveniently brought along. Said Monster then ambles into town and abducts a showgirl (who’s eventual corpse is the only thing to quench Morpho’s unholy
