MANTIS IN LACE
Sex and psychedelia merge in this supremely silly late-sixties freak-out about an acidhead stripper on a killing rampage. It’s stupid as shit but fun nonetheless!
BLOOD FREAK
Here’s a film so mind-numbing it’s a veritable legend among bad movie buffs. The world’s first (and so far only) Christian anti-drug/gore/monster movie, BLOOD FREAK would embarrass Ed Wood
THE BEASTS
Often referred to Hong Kong’s answer to LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, this is a potent blast of sleazy action-oriented nastiness
THE BABY
This early seventies sickie is a real curiosity: an exploitation movie about a grown man raised as an infant. A neglected classic? Hardly, but the film is an intriguing piece of work
EATEN ALIVE
Director Tobe Hooper’s follow up to THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, EATEN ALIVE was one of the innumerable JAWS knock-offs that flooded Hollywood in the late 1970s, the shark stand-in here being a massive crocodile to which a loony old man feeds his enemies
SOUTHERN COMFORT
This horrific bayou-set kill fest is a key action-suspense film of the 1980s, and one of the finest-ever outings by director Walter Hill
SOUL VENGEANCE
This “blaxploitation” movie is infamous for a one-minute scene near the end involving a homicidal penis…which is indeed an eye-opener, but the rest of the film is pretty crappy
SNUFF
A stilted and amateurish exploitation quickie purported to be an actual snuff film. It’s not!
SINTHIA THE DEVIL’S DOLL
It’s a fact that the late Ray Dennis Steckler made some good movies in his day, but this soft core horror-art film isn’t one of them
SHOOT
This would-be thriller wants very much to be a shocking expose of the dark underbelly of American machismo, and maybe it was back in 1976, but not today
