Humanoids From The Deep (1980)

Also know as "Monster" this is a prime b film from the main man himself, Roger Corman.

I was first introduced to this film when I saw the preview on an old tape of "Piranha." I quickly became obsessed with trying to acquire this film, but found it harder to come by than I expected. When I finally got a hold of a copy it was everything I wanted and more! Filled with cheesy acting, generic plot, nudity, gore, and predictability this is a prime example of exploitation. It is also based in a small fishing harbor town, which is a personal favorite setting of mine!

Please do yourself a favor and get this film. It is currently out of print and hard to find (and expensive if you do find it) but it is worth every penny! PS- make sure it is the original 1980 Roger Corman film, not the remake!

Zombi Holocaust aka Dr. Butcher M.D. (1980)

Seeing is believing and this movie reaffirms that statement completely. Filled with sleaze, gore, and absurdity I cannot possibly see how this film could disappoint anyone! Mad scientists and zombie armies are sure to please. And keep an eye out for the motor boat propeller...ahahahaha!!!

Dead Alive (1992)

So we all know Peter Jackson did a wonder cinematic recreation of the Lord of The Rings Trilogy, but did you know that two of his first few movies are considered some of the most ridiculous and gory films ever? Also know as "Brain Dead," Dead Alive is all out gore and laughs aplenty!

The story revolves around a man whose mother gets bitten by a "Sumatran rat monkey." She gets terribly sick, dies, and then comes back to torment the neighborhood.

Filled with disgusting images, a demonic baby, and TOOOONS of blood, this film with most definitely please gore hounds and trash cinema fans alike!

Poor White Trash 2 AKA Scum of The Earth (1974)

This has got to be one of my favorite exploitation films. I am not sure what exactly draws to to it, but every time I see it I lvoe it more and more. Maybe its the great hicksploitation feeling you get, or the sleaze overload, either way, this is a GREAT exploitation flick.

Newlyweds Helen and Paul decide to rough it for there honeymoon in a backwoods cabin. But when Paul doesn't return from the car, after getting a pack of cigarettes, Helen becomes worried, only to find him with an axe in his chest. Panicking Helen runs away only to find the "Pickett" family. Will they be her saviors or a bunch of sleazy inbreeds?

My Friends Need Killing (1976)

After contemplating on the atrocities he and his buddies committed during Vietnam, a war veteran decides to pay them all a visit and repay them for the crimes they committed!

When watching exploitation and B films one will begin to see many of the same plots and patterns in films; however, this is quite a unique one. It will be very hard to find as you will notice that I could not find a trailer or even a semi decent picture, but when and if you do find it, you will be oh so pleased!

Recommendation- Combat Shock, Thou Shall Not Kill...Except, The Mad Bomber

Cannibal Ferox

Cannibal Ferox aka Make Them Die Slowly ranks in there with the top of the cannibal flicks...not quite as epic as "Cannibal Holocaust" but will surely please any cannibal and/ or gore junkie.

Directed by the great Umberto Lenzi, this film is based around three friends who go to the Amazon jungle to disprove the "legend" of cannibalism. BUT, much to there surprise they have a not so friendly run in with what they had considered a "legend" all along.

Filled with real animal killings and the eating of human genitals, this one is sure to please the most twisted of fans!

Recommendations: Cannibal Holocaust, Mountain of the Cannibal God, Primitives

Nail Gun Massacre (1985)

After a girl is gang raped by a bunch of construction workers a masked vigilante begins to take out the rapists one by one...with, you guessed it, a nail gun.

What this film lacks in sleaze it surely makes up for in cheese. Between terrible dialogue, cheesy one-liners, and cheesy deaths this is a MUST SEE for exploitation and b cinema fans.
