Fantastic Rape/Revenge flick! When a group of women, who all get attacked by the same rapist with a hockey-mask, get no help from the police, they decide its time to group together and form.... "The Rape Squad." They turn into a kung fu laced group of vigilantes!
This is a VERY BAD movie, that should ONLY be viewed once. Anything more than that might cause irreversible brain damage.
This film stars the great, Joe Spinell, as Vinny!!! A man who is obsessed with the famous actress Jana Bates and is determined, whatever means need to be taken, to have her star in his movie. He even goes so far as traveling to the Cannes Film Festival to try and convince her. Unfortunately, he goes about things in a non productive way and people involved with Jana Bates begin to disappear.
Great scene with Joe sneaking into the bathroom and "Jana Bates" showering. He has a broken wine bottle and is trying to talk to her reasonably... classic. His jagged and disgusting face are perfect!
This is a great trash film about a crazed mortician who kills people so he can have "friends" in his seedy funeral home.
A must see for Joe Spinell fans, as he basically makes this low budget, crapfest. It is also his last film. He died about 2 months or so after it was finished.
On October 5th, 2010 CODE RED DVD will FINALLY be giving this a proper DVD release!
A film about a young couple tricked into staying at a sinister house, owned by two devil worshipers. The ending has a twist and the film is filled with filth, depravity, nudity, and bloooood!
Lovely photographic compositions and cinematography!
The evil Mr. Giant has kidnapped Dr. Van Kohler and is planning to use the Doctor's invention to hold the world hostage. The only one who can possibly foil Mr. Giant's evil scheme is Agent 00, a 3-foot-tall Filipino martial arts master, spy, and romancer.... Weng Weng.
The greatest thing about this piece of shit movie is that you can really tell that "Weng Weng" is putting his heart and soul into the role and is just soooo utterly terrible.
An erotic French film that tells the story of two young girls, barely in there teens, at a convent school where they make a vow to sin and serve Satan. A very erotic film, but not in a perverted or overly sexually sense.
A highly entertaining, yet disturbing film with a very memorable ending... dark and incredible!
The trailer is the Japanese trailer and was the one I liked most, though the film, as I stated prior, is French.
A gothic horror tale with an erotic twist. A man stops at a castle to seek medical attention for a woman, but there is more in the castle than was expected...
Gothic castle on location shots, beautiful women, giant spiders, all the ingredients for pure trash!
"Superfly" Priest is one of New York Cities new coke dealers and his in it for the large haul. Classic blaxploitation and very famous for its GREAT soundtrack by Curtis Mayfield.
Mute after being molested as a child, Frigga (Lindberg) eventually leaves home and is picked up by a strange man. A man who gives her heavy doses of heroin and uses her as a prostitute.
In her very, very little spare time, she slowly gains the knowledge she needs for her proper revenge...
AKA- "They Call Her One Eye".. But if you are going to buy the DVD, get the totally uncut, redboxed "A Cruel Picture" version.
One of the greatest exploitation films of all time
The greatest cannibal film of all time. The most disturbing, shocking, yet thought provoking film ever made. This one has to be seen to be believed... THIS is the one that goes ALL THE WAY.
Giving birth to the faux-documentary (Blair With Project, etc) Ruggero Deodato made "Cannibal Holocaust" to not only shock, but to educate his audience.
This film follows the NYU anthropologist as he tries to find a group of students who went to the amazon to document cannibal tribes. All he finds is their unprocessed film reels, and the rest of the shocking footage is to follow.
Deodato was arrested for 10 days after the release of this film, as he had paid off the actors to leave the country to give the impression this film was a true snuff film.
Dolemite might be the godfather of blax cinema, but as the one sheet above states... Coffy is the "GODMOTHER of them all."
Dolemite and Coffy would be tied on my list of favorite blaxploitation, different in some aspects but the similar in many.
Pam Grier plays "Coffy" a nurse whose younger sister gets involved in the world of drugs and whose life is put to stake when she receives some contaminated heroin. Coffy, with vengeance on her mind, sets out on a full on vigilante mission to kill all the pushers, pimps, and low lives she comes across.
This is the 1972 classic exploitation film by the great, Wes Craven... NOT some piece of shit remake that wanted to cash in on the well known title and then change major events that happened in the original.
Two teenagers are headed to a concert and looking for some weed, when they get caught up with Krug (David Hess) and his fellow prison escapees. Krug & Co (actually one of the original titles the movie was going to have) take the girls and are going to cross over into Canada with them; however, their car experiences some trouble and breaks down right around where one of the girls, Mari, lives. It is here, deep in the woods, where Krug and his buddies psychologically, physically, and sexually torture Mari and her friend, Phyllis. Rape and humiliation, that eventually leads to the death of the two girls.
The criminals make their way back up to the road and find shelter at Maris families house (at first not knowing it was hers). Mari's parents have not heard from her since she left for the concert and are very concerned. They are also unaware this group of thugs are the ones that brutally tortured, raped, and then killed their daughter and her friend.
Upon finding out, later in the film, the parents begin to loose their mind and go through a whole array of ways of killing Krug and his sadistic friends.
This is an amazing film and had such a huge impact on low budget cinema and drive-in flicks of the 1970's.
The remake is a piece of shit. As stated prior, major events were changed. The violence is over the top and there is not the psychological humiliation, that Mari and Phyllis have to go through in the original, that seems almost just as depraved as the physical violence.
This is a decent 70's grinder, not a favorite by any means, but has all the ingredients to make a pretty good exploitation film: sex, nudity, violence, and sleeeeaze!
A pretty complicated plot for an exploitation film. The basic plot involves two girls, tired of being sexually and physically abused by their stepfather, so they take care of him quick and proper like.... a shotgun to the chest. Then they run off to find their uncle to have a place to live, grow up, and get the most out of life. It is then that all sorts of subplots emerge and start to revolve around what seems at first glance to be a simplistic grinder with a simplistic plot.
Not that this is a challenging movie to follow, or has some existential and/or metaphysical type subject matter that leaves the viewer inspired and amazed, but it possess more of a plot than most exploitation films.
One of Herschell Gordon Lewis's (HGL) last films in the 1970's. Montag the Magnificent is a wonderful magician who is in town to show the people his extreme talent. His show consists of the torture and murdering of a female volunteer. The only problem is when the same volunteer is found dead, somewhere else and hours after the show, in the same manner in which Montag was demonstrating on stage.
Goddamnit, I love this movie so fuckin much! I don't know what it is. I showed it to a friend of mine, whose interest in bizarre film is nearly identical to mine; however, he did not care for this film.
A couple's car breaks down and they stop at a place to get help. They are told of a motel in the area, but also a legend of cannibalism and sadism that surrounds it, which they decide to ignore and visit anyways.
Upon arrival they welcomes by a bizarre revered and are treated to dinner, and dinner that lasts so long they decide to stay the night, which is the set up for a perfect night of creepiness.
This film was shot in 1972 and was considered Canada's first horror movie for some time, but since then I think that has been proven to be false. It was shot with $12,000 and a vague premise in which most of the dialogue was improvised.
And the BEST NEWS YET??? This is getting a first time US DVD release on October 26th... I cannot wait!!!
This was actually the first cannibal film I saw, way back when, and it was the beginning to the end... I had fell in love and then continued my search for more perverse, gratuitous Italian cannibal films.
This is a great starter, in my opinion, for those not versed in the Italian cannibal film craze. It is not full blown graphic like CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, but then again it is no way near as good a film either.
Truly one of my favorite exploitation films. This has been released on DVD courtesy of SOMETHING WEIRD VIDEO, and is the epitome of sleazy grindhouse cinema.
This movie deals with a white girl slavery ring. Mobster Ernie captures young school girls and hands them over to "Mama Lupo" who then tortures them in the dungeon and gets them addicted to heroin.
Could be considered somewhat of a "roughie." And somewhat similar to the "Olga" and "Flesh" trilogies, though INVITATION TO RUIN likes to show more and suggest less.
In my opinion, this is one of two of Franco's best films. Absolutely amazing! Lina Romay, high priest zombies, beautiful location shots, and so much more!
The movie does draw out in some places and many drawn out sex scenes, but this is a fantastic work from Jess Franco... sleaze master himself!
Jess Franco's sleazy and violent slasher film. A man with a badly disfigured face goes on a killing rampage at a girls language school. Filled with some great violence and gore, beautiful women, and and overall bizarre nature.
This is Franco's stab (no pun) at the American slasher film, and in my opinion he does a great job!
This film is based around wealthy playboy who has a large mansion in the countryside. He invites a fashion model he meets one weekend. On the way to the home he runs into a group of guys looking for a... "fun time." The model arrives to the house and all the fun begins!
Great, over looked 70's rape/revenge flick! More or less a "Last House on The Left" knockoff... but worth every second of viewing!
Unfortunetly a trailer was unable to be found for this film....
This is the best film, in my opinion, by the "godfather of gore," one of my favorite directors... Herschell Gordon Lewis AKA "HGL."
HGL made the first ever "gore" filmed titled, "Blood feast." One year later, he came out with "Two Thousand Maniacs." HGL's films are textbook drive-in/exploitation films. If you want to familiarize yourself more with exploitation films, HGL is the perfect place to start as he is one of the masters! These are low budget films that relied extremely heavily (maybe using to much of the funding) on fluffed up advertising and exploitative violence to the excited drive-in audience!
In this film, the residents of Pleasant Valley, Georgia love to lure in Yankees to their small Southern town to help them celebrate their centennial!! One by one the "guests of honor" are killed off in the most brutal of ways...
Featuring an awesome soundtrack, mainly performed by "The Pleasant Valley Boys," excluding the main/introduction song, "Rebel Yell (The South's Gonna Rise Again)," performed by Mr. Herschell Gordon Lewis himself!!!
Just your standard early 1960's nudist camp film. However, this one was directed by the one and only... the GREAT, Doris Wishman!!
Two scientists travel to the moon and to their surprise, instead of being a barren wasteland, the scientists find a lush world filled with telepathic nudists!
Directed by Bo Arne Vibenius only one year after his masterpiece, "Thriller: A Cruel Picture." While THRILLER is still my favorite film of his, BREAKING POINT isn't far off and its a damn fine film!
"Breaking Point" is a hybrid of exploitation/porno/roughie/and revenge. Vibenius creates a violent sexual nightmare for the viewer and he truly delivers!
An ABSOLUTE must see for anyone who is a fan of Vibenius's "Thriller".... anyone who loves exploitation films, roughie pornos, and just all around demented and depraved cinema!
HOLY FUCKIN' SHIT.... I found a trailer... amazing!!! I thought for sure there would not be one out there; however, i was wrong... ENJOY!!! And if you can find this rarity, enjoy watching it as a whole even more!!!
This movie is a goddamn masterpiece, a true piece of cinematic genius! This film is one of my top 10 favorite films of ALL TIME!!!
Zoe Lund plays "Thana" a deaf and mute woman who works for a fashion designer. One day, while walking home from work, she gets raped. She makes it home, only to see her house being robbed by someone... who then decides he will also rape her. This doesn't go over to well with Thana and these two men that raped her, just got her REALLY pissed at every man now.
This film has one of the greatest and most memorable ending scenes. MUST see for very living soul!! This is a violent and somewhat exploitative film; however, it is also technically fantastic... the editing, the score, acting, camera work, etc, etc, etc!
TOP NOTCH blaxploitaiton with the great Fred Williamson and D'Urville Martin.
This film was initially unaccepted by many because of the title, but like many, many, many films... all one has to do is simply watch the film to realize (well in this case) this film is FAR from being a racist film.
Williamson and Martin, two bounty hunters, make their way into a small Western town filled with white folk. They take over, Fred Williamson taking over and being the man in charge of the town, the sheriff, the "Boss Nigger." Extremely funny and simply one of my favorite blax films!
This movie.... what a shit-tastic film. Directed by Lucio Fulci AAAAAAND Bruno Mattei, what else could one ask for?!?!?! It is a very bad film, in so many ways, but guarantees 95 minutes of awesome entertainment!
With Fulci and Mattei, the viewer is given great violence, as is to be expected with a film these two worked on. I am not to sure how much each of them put into the film, or what their opinions are of this film, as I have not read much about it, but I do know one thing. If you love these directors, zombie films, Italian horror, gratuitous violence, and a huge mound of cheese... OR if you're like me and you dig all of that, then this film will not disappoint!
AMAZING film directed by Tobe Hopper, 2 years after he did "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre." A crazy redneck kills people who upset him or bother him at his hotel whenever he feels the need for them to.... DIE!! This film possess a very eerie backwoods feeling to it and is quite unique in my opinion! And I LOOOVE the alligator!
This has a GREAT cast.... Mel Ferrer, Neville Brand, a young Robert Englund, and many more.
Also Known As: "Death Trap" and "Horror Hotel." The DVD distributors, Dark Sky released a beautiful 2-disc special edition of this fabulous 1970's horror drive-in classic!
My favorite film by one of my top 5 favorite directors, Mr. Jean Rollin. This film was originally titled "Requiem pour un vampire," but it received a US release in the early 70's and was released, here in the US as, "Caged Virgins."
This is a BEAUTIFUL film! Like most of Rollin's material, it deals with vampires, but not really in a gory way, but a more surreal and erotic way.
The photography, French countryside location shots, eroticism, nudity, surreality, and some violence all make for a fabulous film!
This is readily available on DVD. However, if you have a DVD player that will play any region DVD, a distribution company in the Netherlands known as "Encore" released a beautiful 3 disc set for the film. This is one of 7 of Rollin's films that "Encore" released in a special 2 or 3 disc set, and they are worth every penny. Beautifully compiled bonus features, collectors booklets... the way a DVD should be made!
A sleaze filled Joe D'Amato film. This reminds me a lot of "Porno Holocaust" in the since that it mixes hardcore with zombies and runs WAAAAAAY to long (like Porno Holocaust) at a whopping 112minutes.
Very entertaining, but be prepared for very ugly sex, drawn out scenes, and just bizarre shit. I think this is definitely a stop above Porno Holocaust!
Thaaaaat's right, kiddos! This is a 30+ year old film, not some piece of trash someone made a year ago to profit off of Roger Corman's successful drive-in title.
With the fear of "Jaws" instilled in everyone it was time to kick off the "killer animal craze." From films like GRIZZLY, and ALLIGATOR, to my favorite... PIRANHA!!!
While this movie surely guarantees plenty of camp and cheese, it should also be noted that there is quite a level of cinematic greatest attached to this film. From its all-star B-film cast, to on point technical aspects, Piranha should not just be pushed aside as a cheesy drive in flick.
The more I think abotu this film, the more I enjoy it. From its creative use of special effects to its creepy and futuristic synth based score, this is a great film and by horror genius... John Carpenter.
Definitely for the sci-fi buff as opposed to horror, as there is little, of what most people would consider "horror," involved with this film.
Some of these scenes will surely look familiar if you have seen "A Cat in the Brain," as many scenes from this gory late 80s Fulci flick were cut to composite "CAT."
But do not be fooled. For any Fulci fan this surely will not disappoint. You get plenty of gore, cannibalism, a woman with facial hair, and some of the worst makeup and costume design for a homeless man. Everything intact for a great trashy concoction.
Without a doubt Joe D'Amato's best film. Super sleazy and violent, this is sure to please even the most jaded of exploitation cinema fans! Fantastic score by "Goblin." This baby mixes the sexuality and violence ohhhh so well!
A very sexy movie starring the exploitation uber babe, Dyanne Thorne. Filled with witches, nude dancing, and other bizarre rituals! Recommended for any fan of backwoods horror films. Horror films about witches and anyone who loves the wicked and weeeeird!
Vile and evil in every way possible. The best naziploitation film ever! This films stars the beautiful Dyanne Throne and is sure to please any gore hound out there! Also has a very brief appearance by the lovely Uschi Digard! Followed by a few other "Ilsa" films, but this one tops them all!
Considered one of the first "roughie" films, "The Touch of Her Flesh" is the first in a "flesh" trilogy, by the Findlays. The 2nd and 3rd are entertaining, but this one is absolutely fantstic!
When a husband comes home to find his wife sleeping with another man he is distraught and involed in an automobile accident. Wheelchair bound, he seeks revenge on strippers and hookers, while planing the ultimate revenge on his wife!
One of a kind film. The definition of drive-in, "exploitation" SINEMA. Sleazy and ohhhh so fun!!
Unfortunetly, no trailer could be found for this gem...
Classic blaxploitation!!! Subjected to bizarre experiments in prison, our protagonist, "Brother Charles" is let free and seeks revenge on the wives of those who tortured him in prison.
What kind of weapon would you choose for such a task? Well Charles chooses, his penis, and why not when it is enormous and filled with super strength!
Great premise, a non typical blax flick with some token blax elements! This baby ir original and a MUST SEE...ASAP!!!
Friday The 13th is without a doubt my favorite horror franchise, and part 2 is probably my favorite.
We are exposed to the maniac killer Jason, for the first time. Only he does not have his infamous hockey mask, quite yet. He is only equipped with a sack over his head....to hide that beautiful mug shot.
I love the atmosphere of the film. The night setting with the rain pouring. And (SPOILER ALERT), I love when the guy in the wheelchair gets killed...one of the best Friday the 13th deaths!
A must see for Friday the 13th, Slasher, or 80s horror movie fans!!
So I think I might be the only person in the world to say this, but this is my favorite Bill Lustig film. And yes, I am talking, even more so than "Maniac."
This is such a great revenge film, with an all star cast. Fred Williamson (with his awesome on foot chase scene), Robert Forster, Richard Bright, and the list goes on.
Great 1980's NYC setting done masterfully by exploitation god, Bill Lustig!
I was lucky enough to find a 35mm print of this and screened it during my film series about 10 months ago. Was a beautiful sight seeing this baby on the big screen!
Check out the awesome trailer. The 60's and 70's were gone, but amazing trailers were still being cut!!....
Textbook exploitation. One of my top 15 favorites and one of my top 2 favorite hicksploitation films! One of those few films I watch 15-20 times a year...easily!
This rarity MUST BEEN SEEN my any exploitation or bizarre cinema enthusiast. It can be found, on a shitty DVD transfer; however, word on the street has it, that a proper DVD release is in the works....and Ohhh how excited I am!!
I could not find an actual trailer, but below is a clip to check out, to get an idea what you're getting into! A trailer can be found on "42nd Street Forever: Volume 5, The Alamo Drafthosue Edition" under the alternate title, "Redneck County."
Pure sleaze by the Euro-sleaze master himself, Joe D'Amato.
I am not really sure what D'Amatos purpose for making this film was.... Was it to push the envelope? Make some quick cash...both of the above? Either way, we are left with a historical piece of trash to examine and wonder what possess a person to make a film like this, and what possess us to watch it.
A group of castaways wash up on a deserted island. They are unaware the island is inhabited by a sex-crazed monster who has radioactive sperm, which, you guessed it, leads to the death of some of our female actresses.
Not much to this one here. If you like Italian sex and/or gore films...check it out. If you like to be shocked by bizarre images....check it out. If you have any sense whatsoever....CHECK IT OUT!
Also, I think it is either OOP (out of print) now, or is soon to be. So if you are really nervy, buy a copy!
This is truly an ugly movie, but one that MUST BE SEEN!!!
If you like this, than check out, "EROTIC NIGHTS OF THE LIVING DEAD", or vice-versa
One of the most atmospheric films ever, from one of my favorite directors ever!
Jean Rollin, truly delivers in this aesthetic masterpiece.
If you are looking for fast paced action, gore, or anything extreme...LOOK ELSEWHERE. However, if you are looking for beautiful imagery, surreal images, and a simple story line, this is for you! This is visual poetry... at its best.
Rollin stated that he wanted to make a film as close as possible to a spontaneous made-up campfire story. One that possessed a sense of dread and eroticism permeating the largely silent narrative... and that is just what he did.
Surrealism, eroticism, beautiful cemetery location filming, Rollin, once again, never fails to amaze me.
I have had this movie for such a long time, but have been waiting for the right time to watch it, as ones mood is essential in the viewing of this film. Or, will this film possess you and fill you with a feeling of the bizarre and surreal? This is for you to decide!
Once again, I am mesmerized and fascinated by Rollins ability to capture beauty in motion. Beauty in the smallest of objects and leave me with a feeling of bliss.
Recently released by CULT EPICS in their 3rd TINTO BRASS Box Set, this psychedelic pop film is sure to please any cult fan.
It is on the total opposite spectrum than the usually soft lighting, soft core Brass films that one might be used to, but this is such a great film. In my opinion, these early Brass films (this one included) are extremely artistic and lack the style that Brass would later on develop. The do not use women as an object within a subject, but more emphasis is put on women as part of the subject in these earlier, psychedelic/pop art films.
This film has very little dialogue and is filled with a soundtrack by "Freedom" who was the remnants of Procol Harum. This film is filled with political statements, statements on war, sex, interracial love, etc. Very different than the Late 1980's to 1990's Tinto Brass most people might be used to, but an amazing and lovely film. In addition to that it is wonderful to see where Brass started!
This DVD was made available thanks to a SUPER rare 16mm print from Radely Metzger's private collection, under the title of "The Artful Penetration of Barbara."
Side Note- On one of these early films commentary, in the Tinto Brass Collection, Volume 3, Brass states that he was originally commissioned to direct THE SHINING, but turned it down. While I love Tinto Brass, I can't image anyone topping Kubrick's direction of Stephen King's, THE SHINING!
Truly a great film by Euro-trash master Joe D'Amato.
When a group of tourists become stranded on an uninhabited island, they soon find out why there is no one left alive....
This film did not sit well with me upon viewing it the first time. I enjoyed it, but didn't find anything that extraordinary about it. Being a Video Nasty and have a great trailer, I was really let down after watching it.
However, like a few of my all time favorite films, I began to think more and more about this film. I was given the opportunity recently to buy the 2-Disc Shriek Show DVD for very cheap and watched it tonight and LOVED IT!
The atmosphere of this film is what makes it (and the gory ending doesn't hurt either). Composed of a great cast, a great score and sound design this is a must see for any lover of Euro trash film or D'Amato fans.
AKA- The Grim Reaper
This film also has a sequel which was released by MYA COMMUNICATIONS under the uninspired title of "Horrible." It was previously known as Antropophagus 2 and Absurd, but now look for "Horrible." This sequel is just as good and from my recollection it is a bit more violent and gory!!
1- He asked Shaun Costello if he would fly him out to meet the real "enema bandit" to visit him in jail and study him for WATER POWER. Needless to say, they didnt have that time and money.
2- I read somewhere, when he was doing live sex acts in NYC he would quote Shakespeare during sex to give the whole act and performance a greater significance..hahaha
What a great bit of roughie smut, from the days of quality porn. I have been holding onto this DVD forever and had no Idea it was going to be so great!
Eddie, a security guard, poses as a cop and uses this to his advantage to get sex from all kinds of women.
The ending is incredible as Eddie dresses as a woman to "cleans" a local woman he saw killing her husband. He then undresses and fucks her, still with his eye makeup on, adding the the bizarre and twisted nature of the film.
The score is also great, with the main theme having a menacing and deviant tone.
If you are into the roughie genre, this is all for you. If you liked FORCED ENTRY, SEX WISH, WATER POWER, then get this movie immediately!
No trailer found for this gem. There is one online that plays for about 1 second, then dies off
While this site will focus on sleazy films, it will not be limited to only those. B films and cheesy 70's and 80's horror flicks will also be included. The name "sleaze cinema" just reflects the aspect all of us exploiteers love about trash cinema!!
