The crown jewel of sophisticated erotica, filmmaker Cecil Howard's COMMAND CINEMA presents lavish Blu-ray and 4K UHD editions of Howard's own masterworks, alongside those he produced with other hardcore auteurs such as Chuck Vinecent, Roberta Findlay, and Armand Weston.
International rock sensation Lola Rain has long hidden her dark personal life of substance abuse and cheap sex. As this downward spiral threatens to overcome her success, Lola's husband/manager Luke Frame becomes exceedingly concerned about his own reputation. He thus hatches a plan for her to "accidentally" overdose, rationalizing that her death will cause him less bad press than poor reception to her concerts. Following her demise, Luke is wracked with guilt, for committing the murder and for having gotten away with it. Plagued by nightmares and isolated by his crime, Luke's descent begins to mirror that of Lola, and threatens his sanity. But Luke is suddenly revitalized by the arrival of a mysterious young hitchhiker named Terry. Hoping that Terry will be the key to his redemption, he also fears that Terry could be the reincarnation of Lola seeking vengeance. A gripping, lovesick ghost story, Cecil Howard’s final theatrical feature film STAR ANGEL is an intensely personal meditation on fame and guilt. Starring Jerry Butler (Raw Talent), Colleen Brennan (aka Sharon Kelly; Taboo III), Chelsea Manchester (aka Tigr; Scoundrels) along with the film's namesake, the incomparably beautiful Angel (Too Naughty to Say No) as Terry. Adapted from a delicately crafted screenplay by Howard’s long-time writing collaborator, Anne Randall (Firestorm) along with prolific journalist R. Allen Leider (Liquid Assets), Command Cinema is proud to present the Blu-ray debut of this dually haunting and heartfelt hardcore classic, newly restored from its best surviving film elements.

"Featuring Angel, one of the most beautiful adult stars of the 80s, this is a five star release. Great direction, great restoration, and nice extras! Last but not least, an above average plot for an 80's flick. Hopefully, we will see more titles with Angel!"
"Another beautifully restored classic adult film from Melusine. Great cast, story and hot scenes. Very nice slipcover as well. Highly recommend this one."
"Another amazing release from Command. While not my favorite of Cecil Howard’s films, it is still a solid release. Great tormented performance from Jerry Butler and I love Colleen Brennan in anything she’s in. Dig the Van Halen ad in the opening scene."
"Star Angel another Cecil Howard classic with solid performances from Jerry Butler, Colleen Brennan and Chelsea Manchester. Also good comedic performances from Ron Jeremy and Taija Rae. Anne Randall offers another good screenplay."
"Great restoration. Looks great. Would prefer new art for packaging tho."
"Another gorgeous addition to the command cinema collection. I cannot recommend them enough!"
"A worthy addition to my collection. Ron Jeremy is in top form as usual in his very limited appearance. The female star Angel is gorgeous. Some good scenes. There is a disclaimer at the beginning of the film regarding the state of the elements used but the label has done a superb job with the source materials and it looks great for the most part. Highly recommended."
"Top quality Cecil Howard drama “film with sex”. Beautiful transfer and this one will get multiple viewings, quite a dark movie. Some extras would always be nice (self ishly) but tbh it’s also fine. Really enjoyed this one and hope for any and all Cecil Howard releases, essential stuff."
"Is this porn where Courtney Love came up with her plan to kill Kurt Cobain? Now this is how you do adult psychological horror! Great score, great dreamy visuals."
"The slipcover art is nice but doesnt match any scenes from the film. This film is probably one of my favorite titles thus far from Command."
