The Dark Side of John Hughes
John Hughes and NATIONAL LAMPOON, a true match made in Hell!
WILD AT HEART
This remains one of David Lynch’s most controversial films. A dark and violent romance, it’s quite uneven but still fairly impacting
MUM & DAD
This British sickie very much fits the definition of what has come to be termed “Torture Porn”
MICROWAVE MASSACRE
This trashy “comedy” is a good example of just how shitty eighties movies got
VAMPIRE’S KISS
Here it is, the most out of control Nicolas Cage performance ever! As for the movie, it’s a seriously odd satire with Cage as an asshole businessman who may or may not be a vampire
VAMP
VAMP, from 1986, is a sexy vampire comedy that predated similarly themed films like THE LOST BOYS and FROM DUSK TILL DAWN
BLUE VELVET
BLUE VELVET is one of most iconic “cult” movies of all time, and there’s an excellent reason for that.
BLUEBEARD
Remember the old folk tale about Bluebeard? It seems unlikely material for a multi-million dollar spectacular, but that’s just what mega-producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind attempted with BLUEBEARD
BAXTER
An evil dog whose misanthropic thoughts are voiced on the soundtrack? A deranged kid obsessed with Adolph Hitler? This is by no means a perfect film, but it’s one you won’t soon forget!
BATTLE HEATER
This beyond-ridiculous horror comedy would appear to be Japan’s answer to the Troma movies of the eighties
