SANTA SANGRE
A truly amazing 1989 film by Alejandro Jodorowsky–bold, violent, surreal and completely irresistible, it’s one of the decade’s finest films
SANTA CLAUS
Santa versus Satan? That’s the premise of this “classic” Mexican kid flick from 1959, a colorful and totally bizarre take on Jolly Ol’ Saint Nick
SALOME (1972)
This 1972 Italian obscurity is easily the wildest production of Oscar Wilde’s SALOME you’ll ever see
SALO, OR THE 120 DAYS OF SODOM
Widely hailed as the most disgusting and/or disturbing movie of all time, SALO is indeed a profoundly unsettling viewing experience
KISSED
A powerful, if seriously flawed, study of necrophilia, KISSED is a daring and exciting film that deserves a wider audience
THE KILLING OF SATAN
From the Philippines comes THE KILLING OF SATAN, a truly insane horror/action/fantasy hybrid
THE ATROCITY EXHIBITION
With this nonlinear epic, filmmaker Jonathan Reiss adapted what is certainly one of the most unfilmable books of all time: THE ATROCITY EXHIBITION by J.G. Ballard
ANGELS AND CHERUBS
The first and most famous feature directed by Mexico’s Rafael Corkidi, who seems destined to be known primarily as the cinematographer of EL TOPO and THE HOLY MOUNTAIN
A ZED AND TWO NOUGHTS
I admittedly don’t know exactly what this film is, but can say for certain that A ZED AND TWO NOUGHTS is a morbid and fascinating oddity unlike anything else
LOVE GOD
If you like your retro B-movies packed with gore, mad doctors, freaky brain parasites and mutating penis monsters, than LOVE GOD is for you!
