The Sinful Dwarf (1973)


A filthy sexploitation film with an evil dwarf that talks funny and still plays with toys, a drug dealer called Santa that hides drugs in teddy bears, and a mouth-watering hot blonde wearing nothing at all...WOW, this is brilliance! The opening credits with a strange avant-garde score playing while all kinds of toys move across the screen is a wild experience alone! Besides the credits, the story alone is absurd. A married couple rent a room at a house. Little do they know that the landlords (a mother and her dwarf son) have a secret room with kidnapped women held captive and injected with heroin supplied by "Santa Clause". Basically this mother and son team are pimp masters that keep their hoes weak and addicted to drugs, rendering them into hopeless junkies. Anyways, the room these chicks are locked in serves as a whorehouse where people are free to fuck any chick in there when they pay the entrance fee to the dwarf. (there's only one customer in the entire movie though, what a booming business haha). The sadistic mother/son pimp team decide to make one of their new tenants (the super hot blonde wife) "merchandise" for their illegal business. Yep, as you can tell, this is one sleazy fucked-up movie. There's quite a number of lenghty sex scenes, especially with the customer guy and the junkie chicks. Nothing hardcore/pornographic but they're pretty damn funny. This customer guy humps this one girl like mad. I'm not sure if it even counts as rape. The women looked like they didn't want sex but had to comply. Either way, it's so politically incorrect and misogynistic that it becomes as funny as Anal Cunt lyrics. Keep in mind, "Sinful Dwarf" isn't a very gory/violent film. The harshest scene is when one woman gets fucked with a cane by the dwarf, although what goes on is left to the imagination. If you find humor in the outrageous sleaze and mistreatment of women in movies like "Pink Flamingos" and "Bloodsucking Freaks," you NEED this! I kept thinking of those two movies as I watched this thing. Even if you don't like those movies, you might find yourself intrigued by the sinister facial expressions and mean antics of that evil dwarf fucker. I love that guy! What he lacks in height, he makes up for in sleaze and hilarity.

There are rare VHS and Japanese DVD's of this that are pretty damn expensive. But don't worry, Something Weird puts this out on DVD-R, go get it from them!

A Climax of Blue Power (1976)


Here's a swell sleazy roughie/porno from the 70's, back when pornos actually had some interesting stories as if they were real dramas/thrillers that just happened to have hardcore sex scenes as opposed to the softcore sex you'd see in an R-rated film. This one involves a sleazeball impersonating a cop so he can arrest hookers and tell them he'll let them free if he can bang them. He even customizes his car and has a police radio. What a genius way to save money and get some crotch action with no strings attached. We get to see two occassions of his sneaky sex adventures. In the first adventure he humiliates a whore by making her jerk off in the mud while it rains. He makes her do this after giving her some rough sex in the back of his fraudulent police car. The second adventure involved going in a massage parlor and having a lengthy threesome with two whores, mostly genital slurping ensues. "Climax of a Blue Power" becomes plot-driven when the main character witnesses a wife murder her husband. The wife never got caught but this police-impersonator becomes obsessed with punishing the bitch. This punishmet involves his cock and things get pretty mean-spirited from there, especially when the dude dresses up like Norman Bates and gives her a bubblebath where he sticks the fingers where the sun don't shine. I like how the movie actually showed the psychological turmoil the guy was going through as he kept thinking of this husband-killing wife. There are neat insights into his mind through yellow-tinted dream sequences where he fantasizes of romantic sex with her to sadistic whipping. The guy was also obsessed over this woman to prove to the world that he does have what it takes to be a cop too. Apparently he wanted to be a cop before but ended up being a loser security guard nobody respects. It's a very well made film and the acting was really impressive, especially by the main man Jason Carns. I personally enjoyed it more as a crime/drama movie more than a porno. If you're interested in the story but don't want to feel so "dirty", either get used to the hardcore scenes or just hit the fast forward button (although that might end the movie pretty early). Interesting to note that the director did do non-pornos as well like "The Black Gestapo" and even the more mainstream MGM released "Thing with Two-Heads". I never thought the guy that did a fun b-movie like "Thing with Two-Heads" did raw explicit stuff!

Forced Entry (1971)


"Forced Entry" is a perfect example of cinema pushed to a grim extreme through simplicity. No extreme gore or siezure inducing effects, just the raw ugliness of a pissed-off rapist, a genuinley creepy music score, and actual war footage that didn't even have blood is enough to send shivers down an iron spine. The movie is about a scumbag Nam Vet that works at a gas station and does some sadistic stuff. He has a clever way of getting into the houses of women customers so he can rape, mentally torture, and murder them in cold blood. He'll ramble on about how he hates people and then he'll say some humiliating un-PC things to his victims. One woman is threatened with a knife and forced to suck his cock while he goes on and on about hating her socio-economic type. And another woman gets forced into sodomy thanks to a gun in the sleazeball's hand. This woman too gets attacked verbally by the madman. During these sick rape scenes, real Vietnam War footage was inserted. You'd see a sudden b/w clip of Vietnamese children crying as the rape victim was begging for agony or a clip of weapons being loaded as the guy's penis gets attention. It's an interesting "compare and contrast" between the war in Vietnam and the war in the streets of mundane America. How the guy's reign of terror ends is another interesting metaphor (not unless I'm just looking way too deep into it). He gets destroyed by two hippie women that meant no harm at all, kinda like the same way peace-lovers were the Vietnam War's antithesis. Sure this movie is a porno but I don't think people were meant to pleasure themselves to the degrading rape scenes. These scenes are terrifying! Anyone that finds themselves jerking off to these rapes is seriously a freak! I feel the movie takes advantage of being a porno so it could illustrate how brutal the crushing of innocence can be through explicit uncensored sex. Overall, a solid disturbing sleaze film with a gritty atmosphere that's so dirty that you'll wanna wash your TV in soapy water later. The only parts that kinda ruin the dark serious mood of the film is when audio clips are looped to repeat a thought and also the sodomy scene cause I think the woman was really getting penetrated in the birth canal the whole time.

The Ravager (1970)


Here's an early "NAM vet gone Wild" film that you "Forced Entry" and "Combat Shock" fans might dig. The main character has this hate for lovers, lesbians, and happy people. He delights in ruining joyous occassions (with explosives) ever since the Vietnam war where he witnessed a woman being raped, tortured, and exploded (dynamite up the joytrail!) by two Viet Cong goons. The psychology of the character operates on utterly retarded bad movie logic. We first learn he gets insitutionalized after the war and then as soon as he's out after being deemed sane he goes to some store to buy demolition/explosive equipment (were explosives really that easy to buy before?). There's even a cheezy narrator throughout the film giving us insight into this demented fuck's mind as if this were some educational 50's documentary. Not that much to the story really. The guy rents out some place where the landlady is a super bitch and just goes around looking for victims whenever he's out. When he finds them he quitely spys on what they're doing (usually fucking, no hardcore penetration though) as he prepares a bomb to set-off to kill. I think the movie padded itself too much by spending a lot of time on the softcore makeout scenes before the explosions hit. Not much violence either. There were some sleazy rapes though and in one rape he ends up suffocating the chick with a pillow. Although very simplistic and not as visually graphic, the story itself about a guy obsessed with "ravaging" happy people is pretty damn fucked up, so fucked up that it's ridiculously funny. He's like a rain cloud that suddenly obstructs rays of sunshine. Overall, it's a neat antisocial tale of some perverted nutcase, obsessed with destruction and sex, going on random acts of violence cause he was mentally disturbed in a nonsensical way. This one is for bottom of the barrel trash cinema weirdos (like me) to scrap up and appreciate for what it's worth cause I just can't see casual movie fans getting much out of this.

The awesome company Something Weird makes DVD-R's of it if you're interested. They're your easiest and probably only source to catch this obscure piece of exploitation psycho nam-vet history. The quality of the release is clear, it just has scratches on the film print that look like silky spiderwebs but you'll get used to it as you watch.

Last thing I worked on was a comic called "Cut to Fuck" and it was about these siamese-twins with one of them going insane from sexual frustrations. Something disturbing happens between them, take the hint from the title, "Cut to Fuck". There's another comic I'm working on called "Breastfeeding Massacre" that involves a hooker who's face and tits get fucked up when she fucks a guy that had mutant acid cum. Later her boobs keep growing and growing until they have a life of their own and things just get drastic from then on, it's a surprise. Good stuff eh?

They Eat Scum (1979)


A weird Super-8 movie that was responsible for a whole "Transgressive Art" movement. The director, Nick Zedd, even coined the term "cinema of transgression". From my understanding "Transgressive Art" is art that's shocking, taboo-breaking, and anti-conformist. Pretty much it's the kinda shit that fascinates me! There sure are a lot of wild things in this flick that would be sure to piss off conservative yuppie tastes. The movie is about this Swastika-wearin' punk chick (Suzi Putrid) in a "deathrock" band ("deathrock", another term the director invented). She has a transvestite dog-fucking brother and a mean bible-thumping father that thinks Jesus is the best thing ever. The family's crazy antics make up the first couple of minutes and doesn't resemble a linear plot to follow. I don't even know if it was intentional but parts of the movie were sped-up, making the actors sound like chipmunks. Things get a bit more coherent (although still messy!) when at CBGB's (an infamous venue) Suzi's band plays their pissed-off music (the movie inserts live shows as if you were watching actual concert footage) and then orders the crowd to go out and kill people. She preached about hatred and cannibalism because they were the main goals in life. The funniest part in speech is when she says guys should cut off their dicks and girls sew their cunts (later we do see a sewn cunt!) so they could concentrate more on random acts of violence instead of sex ("fucking is for animals" she contends). Some absurd stuff from then on happens like a chick getting her boob skin sawed off, the chick's whole body getting eaten in gory detail, a guy who for some reason lays down in the road to get run over, and a flashback of a sick-incest rapist uncle in a dress. The movie operates on messy ridiculous b-movie logic with "Suzi" (or is it?) becoming the queen of Necropolis after starting a Nuclear holocaust.

This nuclear holocaust and her being a ruler of the land later leads to a mutant revolt...a DISCO mutant revolt. It involved guys in cheap monster costumes fighting bar room brawl style to the music of the Village People! One monster is a gigantic cock roach and we later see some Roach-Gore when he's smashed in an elevator! Cannibalism, incest, bestiality (a dog whorehouse?!), rape, nazi flags, blasphemy, castration, and violence....this movie clearly wanted to push the limits of bad taste. I would say this movie is what would happen if a sleazy bohemian set out to combine the "Fuck You and your society" scumbag punk mentality with a campy b-movie, complete with overacting, zany dialogue, and ridiculous special f/x (there's even some toy animation and a "turntable of death"!). I kept thinking to myself that this was like Pink Flamingos meets GG Allin. It comes to no surprise that I later found out the director actually did know John Waters and GG Allin. A true underground piece of punk trash art that has all the elements of being a notorious cult movie. I'm not sure why this thing isn't on DVD yet and I had to see this on what looks like a bootleg of a bootleg of a bootleg of a bootleg! The director is pretty legendary, even Quentin Tarantino made reference to him in Pulp Fiction, so there definitley is a potential bigger following this movie could have if it was more known.

Love to Kill (1993)


Here's a sleaze-drenched CAT III with Anthony Wong as a psychotic wife-beater who's also a lawyer...yep, a laywer, there's no limit to how sadistic this character is! The movie wastes no time to show the dark side of the guy Wong plays in a memorable performance. Within a few minutes into the movie, the guy is furiously raping his wife when he catches her watching Arnold Schwarzenegger flex his muscles on tv. Looking at other people's muscles really pissed him off! He's so pissed that he covers her head tight in a plastic bag as he delivers some rough humping. A beer bottle being shoved where the sun don't shine and other humiliating acts were done to the poor woman. Luckily the wife manages to run out into the rainy street and stumbles upon a cop who gives Anthony Wong an assbeating. Some drama happens and then later Wong's wife and her kid hide out at the cop's girlfriend's house. Things get akward when the cop starts having the hots for the young milf. The mood went from mean-spirited to humorous at this moment but then later progresses into mean-spirit mode again when Wong hunts down his missing wife. As he looks for her, he'll have sick flashbacks of his spousal abuse and also of his fucked-up childhood which reveals why he's such a crazy wife-beating scumbag. The eventual finale is when things get a bit gory and has Wong's insanity go off the charts. He wields an axe like Jack Nicholson in the Shining and tries to have a birthday party for his son..which is a nightmare for the whole family. Overall, a perfect example of grim CAT III sleaze. It gives a good look at even "White-collar" types guilty of beating their wives (as opposed to just "trailer trash") and an interesting exploration of rigid laws that prevent justice, especially with abused wives and children.

As for the movie release itself, I definitley have an edited version (Tawian VCD) but I'm not sure how much and what got cut though. The rapes were violent and there was a gory decapitation, still a graphic film even after editing. Whether the sex and violence is more over the top, I dunno. I don't think there's much more to the gore cause there's only 2 or 3 (if flashbacks count) people in the movie that end up getting murdered. The only edit that was painfully obvious and annoying was when a woman gets raped and we suddenly get a jumpy fastcut close-up to blood coming out of her mouth. Anyways, even if it was cut, the nature of the story was dark enough to be worthy of a CAT III rating and it's a film that's more "story-driven" than "gratuitous exploitation-driven" so I don't really find myself buying the uncut (and UNTRANSLATED) DVD soon just to watch what was missing, the story was what I got the most impact from.

Black Magic aka Ratu ilmu hitam (1979)


This one's an awesome tale of black magic (obviously) and revenge, resulting in bizzare deaths and strange happenings. The story is simple: A girl falls in love with a guy that takes her virginity. Later this guy leaves her for some other woman. When this guy and the other woman have a wedding, the bride is driven to insanity by hallucinations and some food becomes maggot infested. It could only mean one thing, "BLACK MAGIC!". The guy suspects it's that one girl he deflowered so him and some other guys throw her down a cliff. Luckily the girl is saved by a creepy old man. She tells this old man about how she was unjustly accused of black magic so the creepy dude tells her to get revenge by actually doing black magic. Yeah that makes perfect sense, if you get punished for something you never did, you might as well do what you were accused of cause you already just paid for it, hah! She then learns the evil magic ways which the creepy guy is the master of. Doing jump flips in front of a full moon while naked and having blood poured on your head is apparently how you learn black magic. From then on, REVENGE through black magic ensues, resulting in ridiculous GORE. We see one guy's skin expand like a balloon and explode blood and another guy's head becomes so painful that he rips it off...and then his head starts flying and bites one guy. The gore scenes are not frequent but you could still enjoy this movie if you get into the whole superstitious remote village atmosphere and appreciate this tale about deception, revenge, power, and jealousy that progresses. When some lame religious nut from the city comes into the story, that's when the girl goes soft and black magic gets weaker because religious nut encourages everyone in the village to keep praying (in the movie, "prayer" to "black magic" is like "water" to "fire") . The movie doesn't end there though because the creepy black magic master still encourages revenge and for black magic to stay alive. Revenge is all that guy ever talked about. He'd say intense stuff like "pay life with life and death with death!" He ruled! Eventually the movie ends with one hell of a death! Lets just say it involves a human body exploding a bunch of times in different spots (yep, even near the groin). Try and seek this movie out if you love obscure weird stuff that has wild special f/x beyond your imaginations.

I got a dubbed english DVD-R version. I think the DVD-R was either a copy of a rare VHS or VCD, either way it's just way cheaper and easier to just go on ebay and search for the DVD-R. Hopefully ebay doesn't shut down the guy that sold it to me, latley ebay has been shutting down every bootlegger they can. Thanks to yours truly though, you can behold some great gore scenes I uploaded on youtube, check it out here.

Daughter of Darkness II (1994)


The first Daughter of Darkness was a classic in filthy CAT III sleaze so I was interested in this sequel. Well, the sequel pretty much has nothing to do with the first. You can watch the two as complete seperate movies. There was a reference to Anthony Wong from the first movie but nothing important at all to understand the story here. In Daughter of Darkness II, we get a brand new case that different cops have to investigate. In the same fashion as the first, blood-drenched dead bodies in the beginning establish the case. From there the cops piece clues together to find out who the murderer is. Suddenly the movie indulges in perverted slapstick humor, involving a room full of guys having to jerk off into bowls so their sperm can be compared to the one at the scene of the crime. Later, a mango manages to fall in some of the semen and a dimwitted big-titted cop eats it, not knowing why the mango tastes so great. As the movie progresses, things get a lot more erotic and then darker. As flashbacks, we are told the story of a wife and husband befriending some big dude. The husband had a damaged crotch from Nam so he asks big dude to impregnate his wife (long sex scenes ensue)...this of course leads to a fucked-up love story when big dude starts having feelings for the wifey (who's pretty damn hot btw). Things get even more fucked-up when a sadistic sleazeball family kidnaps the now pregnant wife for ransom. I'll leave you at that because just you gotta see how pitch black, evil, sick, and nasty the mood of the movie becomes at this point. Lets just say the movie later involves rape, torture, humiliation, sadism, more sex, STDs, a brutal coathanger abortion, and bloody violent revenge involving sharp objects! If you liked the first Daughter of Darkness or if you just want a ridiculously mean-spirited sleazy tale, you will not be dissapointed with this flick.

The Black Klansman (1966)


A Black Klansman!? What the fuck, what next, an obese anorexic, walking crippled, blind seeing-eye dog, meat-eating vegans, Homosexual Jew Nazis? It's like the inspiration for this movie happened when some kids were coming up with the most ridiculous oxymorons they could think of. The concept and title alone are pretty damn weird and automatically deserves to be in my personal "obscure insane wtf shit" collection, so you know I just had to hunt this down for the novelty value (and so I could tell annoying Dave Chapelle fans that a Black Klansman was done before Chapelle Show!). You don't really see a black Klansman though which the cover depicts. Instead a "black"/white guy who's daughter gets burned alive by the Klan wants revenge (who wouldn't?). This revenge involves him changing his identity by putting on a straight-hair wig and shaving his chin so he could pass off as a white guy and go undercover in the KKK to destory them from the inside...what's funny though is this guy could have passed off as white even without the "drastic" makeover. This makeover was as dramatic as Clark Kent changing into Superman (yeah really, glasses and a suit makes Superman a totally different person). Anyways he also dates the head Klansman's daughter to add insult to injury, that's pretty much the plot and shit that's hilarious because of how utterly unconvincing it is happens (the race transformation by a wig alone, you gotta be fucking kidding me haha, I still laugh just thinking about it). "Black Klansman" is a really obscure early exploitation film that should appeal to old school b&w b-movie fans that like tacky unintentionally funny cheeze movies. It exploits politically incorrect racial tensions, corruption, and has comical white supremacists that think Civil Rights are bad because there was nothing about them in the bible. A company called Blax (who specialize in Blaxploitations I guess) put this thing out on DVD and ebay is the only place I've found it. If you're like me, amused by crazy ideas actually being attempted on film, you might want it..just don't expect tons of sleaze and violence like all the other movies I usually view.

Ghoul School (1990)


If you dig goofy ultra-low budget movies like "Flesh Eating Mothers," "Video Violence," "Bloodsuckers From Outer Space," and Troma shit, you might dig "Ghoul School" too. This movie has the same cheezy as hell fun b-movie feel as that stuff I mentioned. I was impressed by how much gore there was in this too, a gorefest! Blood squirting, poked eyes, torn limbs, wounds, meaty gore chunks, decapitated heads, and guts are here. Sure the effects are fake as fuck, but that adds more to the goofball cheeze-feel. The story involves the water at a school getting contaminated by two thugs that killed the obese janitor for some reason, which then leads to the swim team turning into people-killing Ghouls (apparently people with big teeth painted blue and bleed green). Two horror geeks, a lame heavy metal band, the basketball team, this one coach called "dick", and some other people end up getting stuck in the school. Pretty simple story. The movie then has a zombie-movie formula where people try to figure out what to do while flesheaters prey on them. People say stupid stuff to each other and gore ensues, you know what to expect. The dialogue is funny without trying too hard at being funny, cool old school punk and metal tunes, and Jackie "Joke Man" Martling manages to have a scene where he blurts out a bunch of jokes, haha, "What do you say to a woman with no arms or legs...NICE TITS!" Overall, I enjoyed this even though I didn't expect much out of it. It was made in 1990 and it still carried the innocent 80's b-movie spirit. The movie was short, only 72 minutes, IMDB says it's 90 minutes. I got this in a shitty Brentwood 4-pack called "Ghoul School" (the same 4-pack I got Filthy Mcnasty, ugh) so I wouldn't be surprised if it got cut to fit more movies on one DVD....although the Tempe release (the official release) is only 72 minutes long too. hmm, no clue how long it's suppose to be, but I was satisfied with what gore I saw.

Filthy McNasty (2002)


When you ask people what the worst movie of all time is, people usually give a knee-jerk answer, naming whatever is convenient to rip on for either its commerical or overrated nature. For example, I will see people call "Pulp Fiction" the worst movie of all time just out of spite of it being overrated by pretentious artfags that foolishly think Quentin Tarantino is original. I'll also see people call "Underworld" the worst movie of all time just out of spite of it being a commerical piece of shit with no soul. But still, there are far worse things that could be done with the movie medium. As lame as those movies are, they are not "THE WORST". I actually think people take for granted the budget those movies had, which at least created something not Filthy Mcnasty. Seriously, these people clearly have not seen FILTHY MCNASTY, an abomination directed by the antichrist of movies known as Chris Seaver. He's to movies what Hitler was to Jews. Basically Filthy McNasty is a bunch of idiots standing outside their dorm and acting RETARDED. It's sad they think they're funny. "LOL, look at us, we're being conscious of our own camp value while saying stupid boring nonsensical shit outside this dorm hallway". These "moviemakers" hardly created anything. It is literally just a camcorder pointed at annoying fucks goofing around just to waste time cause they had nothing else better to do. Picture pre-schoolers playing "make believe," only instead of pre-schoolers it's a bunch of people you want to shoot in the face. You'll especially want to shoot the face of the guy that rubs some brown stuff on a fake looking fake penis (yes, a "fake of a fake", these people are so fucking cheap that they can't even afford a real fake penis). Was this suppose to be "sick" because a guy was jerking off by lubricating his dick with shit? The only sickness I felt was a homicidal sickness, the cure being endless rows of machine guns blasting at everyone involved in this atrocity like there's no tomorrow. I keep honestly wondering whether these people were even trying to make a movie. Anyone stupid enough to waste time while holding a camcorder in a dorm hallway can create this garbage. Not a shred of skill or vision used in any cringe-inducing second. A blind guy with down syndrome could do a better job on the cinematography. I can't believe this movie was even released, something this awful should be illegal along with child pornography and crack. This is really someone's embarassing home videos that somehow got picked up by the equally retarded Brentwood company for yet another low quality worthless DVD 4-pack. More proof there's no God, join me and be an atheist.

Chinese Torture Chamber Story (1994)


This movie does weird, totally original things with sex. There's a scene with high flying martial artists fucking. They fuck like mad in mid-air and do tons of hyper-humping, it's like how Goku from Dragonball Z would nail a chick with a crotch strong enough to withstand massive repeated thrusting! There were even some "Street Fighter-like" special moves in the fucking like the spinning on the cock while the cock was in the chick or the super ejaculation blast that drenches the place with semen. This insane sex scene wasn't what the movie revolved around though, it was something just inserted into the movie somehow. The main story is about a girl and her love interest getting framed for murdering the girl's husband (who has a HUGE dick that could kill anything he fucks). This husband is killed by getting an aphrodisiac overdose which makes his penis explode and spray a shitstorm of blood. The story is actually interesting and there's more details to the messed-up love story and corruption that you just need to see for yourself. Anyways, as the title suggests, there's torture here because apparently court rooms back in the ancient times this film was set would employ barbaric methods to get someone to confess to a crime or to just simply execute them. Getting fingernails torn off, kneeling on broken plates, boob squishing, getting fucked by a wooden donkey, castration, and fingers being squeezed by an ingenious invention are some of the torture and execution methods we get a glimpse of. The movie is more of a sleazfests than gorefest though with strong sexual humor, an invisible rape that goes hilariously wrong, numerous boobs, and even a lesbian scene. Overall, a classic essential CAT III delivering the sleaze and violence. The insane high flying fuck is worth owning this movie alone!

Cannibal Apocalypse (1980)


If you're looking for non-stop cannibalism gore munching, I don't think this will satisfy your appetite. There were only a few actual eating human parts and as for gore in general, it's pretty gory, the two stand outs were a ridiculously huge shotgun blast right through a guy (yep, you see a bloody hole in him in all its gory detail) and the other being a limb of a guy at a gas station getting sawed up into lots of meaty red pieces. Besides violence, there is some sex for you tit fans. This one next door neighbor chick gets down right slutty. Overall, the fantastic story about a disease from Vietnam compelling people to bite others, which infects others and results in an epidemic in the city, is cheese galore for guys that know how to appreciate b-movie madness. It has the mechanics of a zombie invasion movie so should appeal to zombie fans. The acting is good too (John Saxon and the guy who's head gets drilled in Gates of Hell are here..that guy also got his weiner chopped off in Cannibal Ferox). Anyways, I’ve seen so many people trash Cannibal Apocalypse, don't let all the negative reviews get to you if you're a b-movie fan and haven’t seen this yet. The bitching is usually by someone expecting every movie to be as gory as Dead Alive or as realistic in gore as a surgery on the Learning Channel. Those idiots don’t have the patience and attention span to sit down and watch a zany movie idea from start to finish, no wonder all these worthless pseudo-snuff movies like August Underground are being made, those just appeal to some br00tal imbecile too stupid to follow an actual crazy storyline that has creativity. A cheeze, gore, and sleaze essential!

The Alien Factor (1978)


Alien Factor has this amazing story about aliens crashing on earth, terrorizing people, getting people to act stupid about handling the problem, and the ending is a huge unexpected twist that got me giggling for days. There were awesome primitive lazer beam effects and a silly yet amusing explanation for many of the bizarre happenings. The best part about the movie was this freakishly tall alien walking on carpet covered stilts. It looked like he was going to tip over any second too. He also had this weird thing with swinging his right hand in a rhythm. Watch as people run in fear from this thing they probably had to help up from falling after filming the scene. And if you like claymation, there's one alien you'll be delighted to see in action. There's an epic battle between an unconvincing claymation alien creature that's so awesome for being so lame with the early camera tricks. The Alien Factor DVD doubles with another Don Dohler movie titled "Fiend", which I guess I could spare a few words about. Not as good as Alien Feactor but was pretty cool too, simple story about this neighborhood jerk that chokes people to death in order to gain energy to live longer. Nobody suspects him though (even if his murders are done in broad daylight). The one man to stop him is his next door neighbor that hates his loud music. Plenty of trademark Don Dohler cheesy lazer/light effects. Don Dohler is a genius filmmaker, Nightbeast is still my favorite of his cause of the all out video game lazers that "decimate" people and also cause of the gore. Anyways, get familiar with Dohler's work, he has his own style (which I can't say about all the replaceable hacks these days) and most of his movies have the same lovable dork actors that use the same names from their previous movies even! Alien Factor is mucho CHEEZE SUPREME!

Attack of the Beast Creatures (1985)


HAHAHAHAH!!! Oh my GOD! If you want CHEEZE, you got it! This is the ultimate cheeze movie for me. There really isn't much to the story. In the 1920's, some people get stranded on an island and want to escape because it's inhabited by a shitload of mysterious creatures that are really customized demonic barbie dolls from the looks of it. These creatures ask no questions and go straight to attacking, it's never explained why they're so pissed off and bloodthristy. Acid water puddles are another danger that lurks around the island too (one guy melts until he's a skeleton!). Between monster attacks, there are scenes where the characters get to know each other and one old man is a cranky asshole that pisses people off. The great thing is that the actors are genuinley trying to put on a performance of a lifetime with what little there is to work with. We see people screaming in utter agony at the top of their lungs as they have fake blood splattered on them and have to rub these demonic doll things up against their bodies to make the lifeless figures look alive and kicking. One woman getting attacked looked like she was crying while breast feeding the little fella! Seeing those "beast creatures" run and swing their arms is too much damn greatness in a movie alone. I don't know how these actors managed to not burst into laughter as they had to act attacked. I'm glad they remained professional instead of trying to act so conscious of how silly everything is. An ambitious 80's b-movies with no shame of how low the budget is.

Thanks to yours truly, you can witness ATTACKS of the BEAST CREATURES over here!

The Candy Snatchers (1973)


A very solid and original "film noir" story with a gritty exploitation look and feel that could have only been done in the 70's. The movie starts off with three criminals kidnapping Candy, the daughter of a jewelry store manager. It was going to be simple, threaten to kill the girl if jewelry isn't delivered. Everything in the ransom seemed to go perfectly according to plan until something the kidnappers didn't see coming became a reality. This reality is funny in a dark ironic twist-of-fate kinda way that is contrary to the stereotypical "heroic father" figure. Turns out the father in "Candy Snatchers" has some immoral ulterior motives of his own and threats to kill his daughter just leave a big smile on his face. A mute innocent little boy (with a cranky bitch mother) happens to live right by the hill that the criminals are staying and hiding Candy at. What the kid ends up doing is drastic and creates the most bleak, ironic, memorable ending in a movie ever...yep, EVER! I haven't seen such a fucked-up ending since classics like "Stroszeck" and "Combat Shock". This has become a personal fav film of mines. It's a very cynical tale, a scathing satire on dreams, greed, and life in a dog eat dog society. A lot of people hate this film because it's not pure exploitation. Sure it has two rape scenes, a tied up blonde school girl, and an ear getting sliced off a corpse, but it doesn't exploit these elements enough to be mindless shock entertainment. There's a pretty good amount of violence and sleaze though so it is more raw than other pussy-whipped crime dramas. The DVD of Candy Snatchers looks great and comes with an old school poster. If you're a big fan of this site, YOU NEED THIS MOVIE!

Abby (1970)


A black exorcist with 70’s sleaze and sex. Some funny looking demon possesses some woman and later makes her become an evil whore that wants to get fucked and treats her friends and family like shit, which is the opposite of who she is. Best scene is a mighty hard kick right square on her poor husband’s balls. You can feel the guy’s pain as the foot and testicles make contact. And the voice is fucking insane on the possessed chick. Actually a lot of this movie is insane. Love the goofy special effects and the way Abby goes from innocent to fucked-up is priceless. This is like my favorite blaxploitation film, they even got Blacula to be the Exorcist. It’s a damn shame the stupid corporate suits at Warner Brothers sabotaged the distribution and release of this movie cause they wanted to monopolize the “exorcism” genre and crushed all other movies about possession. Now I have to settle for a cheap bad quality DVD release while stupid shit like Darkness Falls gets better treatment. Poor Abby.

Terrifying Girls' High School: Lynch Law Classroom (1972)


A small handful of mildly bloody fight scenes and a decent amount of tits. Even one lesbian scene with nipples rubbing against each other. There were some torture scenes like depriving a girl the use of a bathroom after forcing her to drink water and also a bulb going up a vagina, but nothing graphics. What little violence and the boobs is all I really enjoyed from the movie and sadly it didn't make up a large percentage of this film, which is apparently about a strict-school where corrupt teachers tortured one student and the student's friends want to get revenege, leading to a series of blackmail and endless political mumbo jumbo that made me lose interest in the plot. It's a decent Pinky Violence film, has the right amount of sex, but ultra-light on violence and too heavy on boring political chit-chat, far from perfect. "Sex and Fury" is an essential pinky violence film, this one really isn't.

Axe (1977)


AXE has that trademark 70's exploitation look and feel. Like I Spit on Your Grave, Fight For Your Life, and Last House on the Left, it involves someone that seems so harmless slowly exposing their darker side when confronted by evil. It all starts out when three criminals that are involved in a murder and did inhuman things to a poor grocery store woman worker hideout at a farmhouse where a girl and her paralyzed grandfather live. The two seem so weak and easy to abuse which is why the criminals plan to crash at their house and abuse their meekness. Two of the criminals even tried to rape the chick (the third criminal didn't want any part of this abuse though, he was a sensitive pussy type with a fro like that famous painter guy). Eventually the girl has to take out her revenege using sharp objects that lead to some bloodshed (the blood looking like primitive HG Lewis film blood). This movie actually reminds me of Roman Polanski's Repulsion because the girl seems to be a silent ticking-time bomb of craziness as well. Both the girls in Repulsion and Axe would hardly talk and had that cold yet innocent look in their face too. The killing of a rapist was even done in a similiar fashion with the same weapon. So in a way, you could say this is the even more minimalistic and cheaper, 70's sleaze/revenge exploitation version of Repulsion. Not a gorefest or anything, just a good simple tale of abuse and revenge.

Schramm (1993)


A very unique film that takes an artistic experimental/weird approach at illustrating the fucked-up and depraved world of a serial killer. High brow, fancy cinematic techniques are employed to showcase something so low brow like extreme (and I mean EXTREME) gore and cold blooded murder. The scene where the guy nails his penis foreskin looked pretty damn painful. And there is a gross-out severed leg here in gory detail. Very shocking imagery as you can tell. Storywise the movie is simple (dying perveted serial killer that has weird hallucinations like a vagina with teeth and dentists that rip his eyeball out) but the movie tells the story unconventionally through abstract flashbacks as he is dead in a pool of paint and his own blood, which may confuse a viewer expecting a linear story. The movie doesn't even use that much dialogue. Through silence, natural sounds, and an ambient soundtrack, you get the raw and depressing mood the director was going for. Sleaze, Gore, Weirdness, and High-Art make this a personal fav of mines. The Barrel DVD has been recently easier to find now so get it before it's out of print again. From the German director of the infamous Nekromantik by the way.

Don't Go In the Woods Alone (1982)


Not the gorefest I was expecting to see after all these years. "Gore" is more than just some fake blood, it has to involve chunks of flesh, organs, and guts. This movie only had the fake blood and the kills weren't as inventive, just standard stabs...and there still wasn't enough of that in this movie that felt like an eternity. Pretty average slasher in my book. Some cool blood splashing moments but the abundance of needless suspense padding the movie to oblivion, stretching the movie's length more than it needed to be, really killed the whole thing for me. There really isn't a story or anything to focus on, just random people sometimes getting killed or chased by a guy that looks like a freak from The Hills Have Eyes. The inept filmmaking is mildly funny at times in a Night of the Demon (the one with Bigfoot) way, but you can tell some scenes were intentionally funny, which ruins its so-bad-it's-funny classification for me. Maybe I need to watch this again when I have a better day, but I'm dissapointed it wasn't as fun and gory as I thought it would be. The music is what I couldn't stand the most. It was abused in almost every scene and was used as false alarm suspense most of the time, like the boy that cried wolf, only more monotonous sounding. A movie that builds this much suspense needs to deliver something to be suspensful about or else I just feel let down when the false alarms are so constant.

Skinned Alive (1989)


Sure the box art is pretty damn gay, but it's a neat Ed Gein-esque story with a massive helping of the red juice! A family comprised of a crabby hag with an eye patch, her asshole son and asshole daughter go around traveling in their van and killing people to get skin for making high quality apparel. Sounds like something from Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Motel Hell eh? One day their car breaks down in some small town and they reside in an unsuspecting Good Samaritan’s house along with his wife. As they live there the sadistic family goes on running their “business” at this home, which consists of skinning people alive. Skin carving is actually shown without any cuts. Watch the flesh get sliced as a blade runs through it. Funny thing though is this skin cutting looks like a bleeding flesh-colored football getting cut like a birthday cake (even the filmmakers mention the birthday cake thing). Skin does get ripped off too, exposing comical blood covered bones. It’s an awesome cheesefest, only the morbid crybabies that want serious “sick gore” will be disappointed. The only truly sick thing in the movie in my opinion was the sister stripping for the brother. That strip scene was kinda cool though, she cut off her clothes with a knife!..but still it was for her brother ewww. The gorier stuff happens when the hero of the movie (an alcoholic loser ex-cop with a wretched bitch ex-wife) gets his trusty machine gun to kill this sick family. Ridiculous machine gun blasting and a blade on the machine gun becomes blood and guts galore. That’s pretty much it. Watch out for a whole body that’s skinless.

Bread and Circus (2003)


This movie plays out a lot like Bad Taste. It takes place mostly in grassy fields where people are running around killing each other until someone is left bloody and butchered. The gore, like Bad Taste, is exaggerated, gross, over-the-top, and comical so it truly does earn the title as the "Norwegian Bad Taste". One guy gets sliced in half with a sword and his guts spill out so this one guy can find his keys that were eaten. There are other sliced humans where you can see all their red gooey insides. Heads are left wide open so blood and mushy gore can gush. This other dude drop kicks some guy onto a tree branch so he can get impaled and his cartoon-ish heart pops out. Another guy gets kicked in the ass while taking a shit. When his ass bleeds, he sticks a beer bottle up his ass (you see it get painfully shoved up) to stop the bleeding. Suddenly he gets thirsty again and shits the bottle out to drink. Hell there’s even an alien in this movie and it involved a space-ship that cums into mother (literally “mother”) earth’s vagina (a vagina that people pop out of in the movie), it adds to the surreal weridness of it all. But unlike Bad Taste, Bread and Circus tackles deeps concepts such as identity and freedom. Apparently life moves like an assembly line in the movie. Mother earth plops you out and then you’re just left to fill some cookie-cutter standard of living where you walk across a path with arrows, have a brief case handcuffed to you, work for people richer than you, and then roll over dead one day in a world that was run by a corrupt king that employs a gun crazy force to keep you in track. People who are deemed undesirable for society are left in the woods where cannibalism takes place. One guy who lived this boring life wrote some radical, ten commandment-like shit, on some stone tablets. Years later a couple reads these words of wisdom and are inspired to start a violent revolution to break free from the king's power and society's limiting norms. They find a fuckload of weapons and start killing tons of people in the "system" including the unjust king and even one guy that looks like Eminem! The kill spree goes on for a long time until the end.

This movie could be enjoyed on two levels: as a mindless splatterfest or a mindful splatterfest. Depends if you can pick up the subtle metaphors and make sense of the scenes that seem like random weirdness to casual viewers. An impressive film for such a low budget with a small cast. Plus it was made in 2003, good to see a really werid and creative gross-out gore film come from that awful year.

Biozombie (1998)


The movie starts out as a comedy about two guys that work in a VCD store at the mall up to hilarious antics then slowly it transforms into a really tense horror movie where everyone struggles to survive until the grim ending. There still is some intentional comic relief within the horror part of the movie, like people quarreling over the flavor of cup of noodles even when danger lurks. Stylized gore scenes were fun too, real smooth cartoonish actions that connect together and fall like dominos, like someting Sam Raimi or Peter Jackson would have executed. The blood and limbs fly and spill in a festive manner, not in a nasty disturbing way. It's a fairly modern movie (1998), but the zombies don't suck. These are slow creeping zombies splattered in generous amounts of blood and have fucked up faces. Sure the movie is set in a mall, but it's definitley not like Dawn of the Dead. Plus, unlike Romero's film, we get an explanation and see how the zombie infection started (apparently Iraqi bio-chemicals that looked like soda was accidentally given to a guy that was hit by a car). All the characters develop and show their true colors, even one zombie with a heart of gold. It's solidly written movie that manages to shift moods and atmosphere as intended without being sloppy. Don't expect extreme gore (like guts and organs) though since this is only a CAT II.

Wolf-Devil Woman (1982)


Bizzare movie mongers, take note of Wolf-Devil Woman because this is one hell of a movie! A village is ruled by a guy called the Devil (a guy with a golden KKK outfit) who has the power to freeze people's blood. Apparently he wants everyone to submit to him or else they die. Some chick that shoots colored smoke, a bunch of ninjas that can teleport, and voodoo doll controlled zombies are his army. One couple tries to escape his empire in the snow with their baby but can't go on any longer so they cut themselves to keep the baby warm with their blood. Things get weirder when they start head-butting the snow so an avalanche can bury the kid and keep her safe. Over time the baby is raised by wolves and the wolves feed her rare ginseng that, when eaten, can keep people immune to the Devil's blood freezing power. Two guys discover her when they tried to find that ginseng too and later they teach her how to speak, which is IMPOSSIBLE to do with feral children in real life, I know this from being a psych student. It's also impossible for a chick raised in the wilderness to have make-up and look like Asia Carrera at her hottest (seriously this wolf chick is hot, no nudity though). From then on it's Wolf Woman doing stuff stupid according to civilization (like getting drunk) and then later she has to get revenge on the Devil and end his empire, resulting in major asskicking.

There's a lot of energy jam packed in the whole mix where sudden bursts of actions impact your senses hard. In the first couple minutes of the movie alone you already see some kinda strange crucifixion with odd lights and sounds at a thunder striking pace. All the super-hyper cuts when crazy shit happens made me feel woozy, like I was tripping on acid and got my face slammed while doing my imitation of how a tornado moves. There's a fun 70's oriental orchestra score too and a lot of sound effects and scenes that look like something from that show, the Six Million Dollar Man. The martial arts battles are violent, with bleeding scratches, blood sprays, and the occassional ripped limbs or decapitation. Overall, insane goofy cutting, cool fights, cheezy characters, fun soundtrack, laughable f/x (cartoon flames?!), and a ridiculous non-sensical b-movie story makes this a true winner with weird cinema freaks like me. I think there's a hard to find VCD, but I got a bootleg from weirdworldcinema.com instead.

Run and Kill (1993)


A mild-mannered fat man's life goes to hell when one day he finds his wife with another man and ends up in a bar getting stupidly drunk where he did something he'll regret, he accidentally hired a hitman to kill his wife. Not only is he depressed about his wife's death the next day, he also can't pay the hitman what he owes so they start messing with him, his business, and his little daughter for not paying his debt....things still get more fucked-up after trying to solve the debt problem though. Lets just say it gets him into a mess with a psychotic killing-machine that sheds not a single ounce of mercy for the elderly or children (he does something to a kid that is ridiculously sadistic and would offend a whole lot of people). It's a really clever over-the-top violent thriller. There's a good amount of machine guns blasting, explosions, hard-hitting fights that make you really feel the pain, and blood spilling (especially in one nasty scene where a guy gets bled to death). When the mild-mannered fatty finally tries to seek revenge in his own hands, he literally does "RUN and KILL!" and is more pissed than ever. A classic CAT III, it delivers the sadism, mean-spirit, and violence that the "genre" is notorious for.

Boarding House aka Housegeist (1981)


Everything about it is awfully shitty. And there in lies its beauty. This was one of the early Shot-on-Video horror movies and it’s amazing in its amateurish nonsensical failures. The winning elements are a random pie fight, a wealth of tits and ass, tacky schlock gore with some guts, primitive computer text with a laughable sound as each sentence is typed, weird telepathic meditations, and a spectacular ending that just drips with cheese every second cause it involves that telepathy thing to fight a ghost with nice tits. Story involves a haunted house now inhabited by some ultra-sleazeball that does weird meditations and only wants a couple top-notch chicks as roommates in the house. Some stupid stuff happens throughout the movie (a rape flashback where everyone still had their clothes on) then all of a sudden later in the video they’re ready to have a party (which will take part in the end where all hell breaks loose of course).

Monsturd (2003)


I was expecting stupid fun but all I got was stupid. There isn't anything funny at all. It was so bad it simply sucked. You'd think with a name like "Monsturd" there'd be some hilarious disgusting scenes, like the vomit scene in Bad Taste. All the shit jokes were so obvious though. Any idiot could come up with this bland ultra-tame/G-rated dialogue. They also have awful music being abused in every scene. Give it a rest, geesh. There aren't any violent/gore parts either. When the lame monster attacks, they just show people screaming and water splashing with some tootsie roll stains apparently. The monster only gets shown a couple times. The worst part of the movie is that it takes elements of the thriller genre (which it tries to spoof as well as horror) too seriously. There were details they just spent too much time on explaining. I wanted to watch a movie, not follow something pointless. I can't believe I sat through this mess. The ending felt like they just ran out of ideas so they ended everything in a snap with bullshit CGI. What a shitty movie (very appropriate description for the title eh?). The only redeeming quality about this movie is I'll have something to throw at people in case everything else I own disappears and I have the need for a projectile. I’d probably only need a projectile just to break another copy of Monsturd though. Ugh, just take a look at the year this was made, I should have known better.

Deathdream (1974)


A solider that died in war returns to his small town home after his family was told he was dead. His arrival was a joyous moment until he acts like a silent antisocial asshole and kills some people and a dog. The movie isn't cheesy or trashy and has a very serious unsettling tone, utilizing the archetype horrors of a zombie/serial killer to illustrate the real horrors of war's affect on society beyond the battlefield. It's a depressing tale with some genuinley creepy make-up and mysterious atmosphere. The social commentary was subtle, using metaphors to get the message out in clever ways (ex: the blood addiction parallels the drug addiction in NAM). Tom Savini's first movie but not that much gore, only a few blood splatter and a gruesome neck wound. You mindless gorehounds would be dissapointed. The DVD from Blue Undergorund is a must own and has interesting extras. This is like my fav Bob Clark film. A lot of people don't realize this movie was from the same guy that brought us "Porky's" and "A Christmas Story" (the one where Ralphie shoots his eye out).

Nightmare in a Damaged Brain (1981)


It’s a standard psycho slasher movie but what sets it apart from most others is the over-the-top brutality. One unfortunate babysitter gets her back hammered in, leaving deep holes within her flesh that spit blood. Then there’s the infamous end where the weird fuck flashbacks to some perverted kinky shit he witnessed and is the origin for his insanity. The bowtie wearing little boy (the psycho as a kid) does some major damage with an axe, chopping limbs off and leaving gushing blood fountains in his sex-crazed father and some whore. There’s not that many kills throughout the whole movie but the few kills present give new meaning to the word bloodbath. As for the story, it’s nothing amazing really. It’s just about a guy from a mental hospital whose medication doesn’t work and is trying to find his kids and wife who has a boyfriend now. And as he is hunting them down, he kills a few random people on the way and has nightmarish flashbacks of scenes from that one axe massacre he delivered to his own dad. A bit too many slow mushy family-drama scenes that have nothing to do with the psycho (they all have to do with the wife, her boyfriend, and the kids) but the killer that freaks out about sleazy sexual stuff and kills shit until it’s a bloody mess makes this a worthy viewing for gorehounds and b-movie fans. Tom Savini is credited for working on some of the awesome splatter effects but has denied ever having to do anything with the movie. Even though pictures of him on the set have surfaced, it’s said that he was just the consultant while Ed French did the actual stuff. But on the imdb.com board some guy said he emailed Mr. French and he said he didn’t do the effects and didn’t want to name the people either. That’s a shame nobody is taking credit for this splatterfest. Make sure you get it uncut if you ever buy it, fuck the edited version! Fuck the edited version of anything anyways. I got my copy from Slasher Index. Not a "real" release but the quality and package looks good and you know it's made by a fellow fan that wouldn't give you a crappy cut version.

The infamous patricide scene here!
