Awakening Of The Beast (1970)

José Mojica Marins also known as Coffin Joe has always been a master in the bizarre. With the popularity of At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul and his strange vision of hell confined within the film. His very name alone struck fear amongst the people of Brazil. I once read that parents would scare their children into being good by telling them that if they are bad Coffin Joe would come for them.

It seems that maybe Coffin Joe was almost trying to destroy the myth behind his name with this film but yet uphold his controversial status and continue down his path in cinema of the strange. Awakening Of The Beast starts off like a Sexploitation flick with lots of skin and all sorts of perverse acts all told in a conference concerning the drug problem in Brazil and a doctor who is writing a book on addicts. We see a girl shoot up and strip for a bunch of sleazy men while an awesome record spins. The men then pass the naked girl a pot so she can release some body fluids for their sexual amusement. Then we get a bunch of Beatniks who grope a school girl until a bongo playing hippie type, dressed as Jesus sticks a giant walking stick up inside of the girls most sacred place. We get some interracial action and a cocaine abusing woman who has a very strange relationship with her horse. Then we have our basic Roughie type stuff with women being smacked around by sweaty men and thers also a quite strange scene involving some foreplay and pasta. Eck!

Eventually four of these sexual deviates are brought together by the doctor and the four sex/drug addicts agree to drop some acid and have their behavior recorded. Little did they know they would be taking a acid trip to hell. The doctor uses Coffin Joe and the power of suggestion to get inside these expanded trippy-minds and the four losers descend into the bizarre world of fire and torture.

Coffin Joe appears and disappears in bright colorful lights. He shoots flames from his fingertips and and basically just raises hell. He brings the pleasures and the tortures of hell to the screen in a odd hallucinogenic collage of color and strange imagery. Women are striped naked and whipped. Men are layed down upon stairs becoming human stepping stones for Coffin Joe to walk upon. We also get one of the strangest scenes in cinema history. We see these strange red, luminating faces... With hands moving about and one of them is smoking a cigarette. At first these faces seem to be masks but once the eyes focus in on what is really on display we realize that it is a bunch of human asses with faces painted on them. Its one of those things that has to be seen to be believed.

Once the addicts come down from their trip we learn that they were given sugar pills and the power of suggestion along with a little Coffin Joe was all they needed to dream up their very own hell. Next director José Mojica Marins appears and yells "Cut" and the film abrubtly ends. I find it funny that a man who had as much controversy behind is name, like Coffin Joe would try to destroy the myth in a Jodorowski, Holy Mountain way. After all its only a movie...

Reflections (1977)

This 70's smut flick is sort of a mix between Taboo and Behind The Green Door and at first glance it almost seems like one big Taboo ripoff. To bad Reflections came out about three years before the incestuous classic.
Reflections is yet another tale of incest from the golden age of porn. It involves a brother and sister and their cousin Connie. Through the majority of the film it seems that there is just a big love triangle between the three family members but things get kind of tense when conversations of their childhood comes up. Jealousy rears its ugly head and poor brother seems to be getting the brunt of it. Sister and cousin seem to be playing tug of war with him and nobody is giving him release. He spends most of the film trying to fuck his family members and the most gets is a satin gloved hand-job. One cant help but wonder if the two girls are purposely teasing the horny teen.
Brother has enough of the "games" and drugs his cousin Connie. He performs some oral sex on her and then shoves his man meat down her sleeping throat but before he gets any further his sister comes in and fucks everything up. Brother doesn't get his (full) rape on but sister does. She straps a dildo on Connie and rides it hard.
Brother throws a big party and it turns out to be nothing more then a Behind The Green Door type orgy with face masks and all kinds of strange happenings. We have shrimp cocktail being shoved into vagina's along with whipped cream. Linda Wong also shows up for the best sex scene of the film with John Leslie. The couple get in on with the use of a ladder.
The whole thing comes to a giant what the fuck end... It leaves you wondering what the hell just happened and is pretty disappointing. Brother finally gets Connie and then sister comes in and fucks him in the ass with a strap-on. He begs her to stop but she continues to plow away. She pulls off her mask and brother lets out a cry worse then he did when he was being anal raped by sissy. Then the film erubtly ends. I still have no idea what the point of the ending was and I'm confused as hell.
Still despite my confusion Reflections is another trashy 70's porn flick with a real downer vibe. Well worth a watch. Where else are you going to see shrimp shoved up in sacred places? I just wish somebody would tell me what the ending was supposed to mean.?

Candy Stripe Nurses (1974)

Average 70's sex comedy about three girls who work as (Yes you guessed it) Candy Stripe Nurses. The movie doesn't really follow one particular story line. Instead its kind of all over the place. We have a Spanish babe who is a bit of a rebel. She likes to fight and she eventually falls for a Spanish guy who was framed for a gas station robbery and shooting. Then we get this short haired artsy-fartsy type babe who falls for a junkie jock. Last but not least we have a nympho blond who has a thing for rock stars.

Dick Miller has a cameo as a angry loud mouth prick in the bleachers of a basketball game. "Your mother blows goats" he yells into the crowd before he has some popcorn dumped over his head.

Candy Stripe Nurses offers up lots of nudity from pretty good looking girls. We also have some streaking when a bunch of guys get naked and run through a basketball game. We have drug abuse, gun violence and even a rape scene thrown in for good measures. Still Candy Stripe Nurses is really just a time passer. There isn't anything to memorable about the movie and it really could be skipped all together but if you really like 70's sex comedies or just naked girls in general I suppose you could do much worse then this.

The Taking Of Christina (1976)

The Taking Of Christina is another 70's sickie from director Armand Weston (Defiance Of Good). This one is a rape/revenge flick that is supposed to be based on a true story. True or not its an awesome flick with ultra violence, rape and of course hardcore XXX sex.
Virginal Christina is only days away from her wedding when she is abducted by two ex convicts. She is raped and beaten by these two scumbags but in time she almost seems to be enjoying it.She convinces the traveling criminals to take her with them and she leads them into a trap of revenge that ends with a bloody mess in the snow.
Like Defiance Of Good, you really can see the talent behind this thing. The Taking Of Christina is not just your average smut flick. We get nice camera work with depressing music and we even get a decent actor here and there. Right from the beginning of the movie its obvious that this thing is going to end in tragedy and fortunately for us it does. It ends with a shotgun blast to the face. One of our rapists even has his penis blown off with a exploding crotch squib. Another man is stabbed to death and Charles Bronson even appears in a sex scene in a giant poster on the wall. Bronson's mustache and wrinkly face is exactly what the people need during a filthy orgy.
I watched this one with a bunch of friends and everyone was cheering on the penis-wound revenge scene and of course Bronson's big appearance in a 70's porn flick. This just goes to show that adult cinema was and still should be so much better then the crap that these money hungry rapists put out today. Grab a few friends and a few cold ones and check this one out for a filthy good time.

Blue Voodoo (1984)

What a let down this one was. Vanessa Del Rio is one of my favorites in classic smut, with her ultra trashy filmography of fetish and filth but even the Latina anal queen from the golden age of blue cinema couldn't save this one.
Blue Voodoo is about some toolbox named Jason who uses women for their money and leaves them broken hearted. Vanessa Del Rio plays a Voodoo Priestess who for some reason chooses to take revenge against Jason. She summons a woman named the Black Widow to act out the deed of vengeance but for some reason before killing Jason she aids other losers act out their fantasies.
All I want to know is who the hell wrote this thing. This is the worst plot I have ever heard of and the movie is just as bad as the writing. One of the biggest surprises is that Blue Voodoo was directed by one of my favorite porn directors. It was Armand Weston's (Defiance Of Good, Taking Of Christina) last film and its almost impossible to believe that this shot on video mess came from the same man.
In the big revenge scene Samantha Fox is masturbating on top of a bathroom sink, splashing water where the sun don't shine. Jason treats her to a good pounding and then the movie cuts away to our Black Widow dancing at some shitty strip club and slashing her own naked flesh with a big kitchen knife. For some reason every time she cuts in with the knife the same wounds appear on Jason. Samantha Fox seems to enjoy the blood on her lover and rides him harder. Jason doesn't have a normal pop shot. Instead there is a bit of red stuff flying around. This scene might sound good on paper but it came off as a mess on video. Oh and speaking of video, we are forced to watch all these really cheesy video fades and dissolves right in the middle of sex scenes and it gets pretty damn annoying.
Robert Kerman, Sharon Mitchell, Joey Silvera and Jaimie Gillis also show up in Blue Voodoo and the only entertaining moment in the whole movie involves Gillis screwing a girl in a crib, wearing a baby diaper and spraying milk from her bottle all over her face and breasts. Its great watching Gillis trying not to laugh during this scene. I however am still not laughing at this 80's piece of garbage.

Last House On Dead End Street (1977)

Last House On Dead End Street also known as Cuckoo Clocks From Hell a.k.a. The Fun House is in my opinion one of the greatest horror flicks of all time. There is plenty of background story to this ultra nasty cult flick from cinema madman Roger Watkins. Such as the film being cut down by hours and then going missing for decades and never really been released on video. Well fortunately for us Barrel Entertainment released this thing maybe about 10 years ago and put out an excellent DVD packed full of interviews, diary notes from Watkins, a trailer, a music video from Necrophagia, a huge book with pictures and interviews and more.

I first saw Last House On Dead End Street when I was about 15. I remember sitting there in room with the door locked, feeling like I was doing something wrong as I ventured into this strange horrifying world of Terry Hawkins, a young man (I believe he is 21) who is released from prison after serving a stint for drug trafficking. Instead of starting a new straight life Terry decides to lash out on society and shock the world with his form of payback. Hawkins rounds up a few local low life's and together they make some snuff films.

Last House On Dead End Street is notorious for its gruesome gore scenes but for me this is not where the horror is. For me this thing was so scary because of how bizarre it all was. This thing was shot on 16mm and 35mm and it is so gritty it makes Texas Chainsaw Massacre look like Avatar. The dubbing is so far out and weird and for some reason it makes Dead End Street that much more creepy. Then we have Terry Hawkins and his crew. They look like members of the Manson family and looking at it now, there is no doubt that the Manson murders inspired this thing.

In one of the most memorable scenes a woman paints her face up in Al Jolson style Black/Face and is whipped by a midget while a bunch of pervy art fags watch in delight and her husband sits in the other room watching stag films. If that's not trashy, I don't know what is. Then we have a strangulation, some hot-poker-fu, a rotting faced blind man, very weird masks and a very strange scene involving a topless woman with horns and a cow hoove protruding from her crotch and a male victim is forced on his knees to perform oral sex on the cow hoove. This scene is weird, sleazy and creepy all at once. These are the kinds of moments that film makers should wish they could capture today. Then we have a electric drill to a eyeball and of course the real controversial scene. A woman is strapped to a table with all white sheets. First her face is slashed up with a scalpel and then her leg is sawed off with a hack-saw. She passes out from loss of blood but is woken up with sniffing salt and she sort of kicks her legless nubs around and lets out some awful screams. Then her guts are all ripped out by hand after her stomach is cut open with a pair of metal schears. Guinea Pig 2 : Flowers Of Flesh And Blood clearly tried to reenact this moment of gore genius. The camera takes a position from above the red stained white sheets and gives the viewer a very unsettling look at the gore. Id say its one of the most memorable scenes in horror history. Last House On Dead End Street also has some slaughter house footage as well with cows having their throats slashed and blood spewing all over the place.
Maybe someday some one will find the remaining footage for this thing and release it as the Fun House but until then we are stuck with Last House On Dead End Street and its a horrible thing to be stuck with (In a good way).

Madman (1982)

Madman also known as Madman Marz is a pretty silly slasher flick from the early 80's about a axe wielding Madman and yes you guessed it, his name is Marz and hes back from the grave and he has a bone to pick with anyone who calls his name out. When a group of campers sit around a campfire and challenge the legend of Madman Marz the heads start rolling. Literally! Madman Marz seems to favor decapitation by axe. He murdered his wife and children this way and now its stupid horny campers.

Gaylen Ross from Dawn Of The Dead shows up in this one as the shotgun wielding heroine who tries to save a bus load of young campers. Madman is one out of the short lived acting career for Gaylen. She only played in three movies until deciding to stay behind the camera and mainly sticking to documentaries. Well this was back in her sleazy horror days and she does have a sex scene in a hot-tub. However she doesn't show off much flesh and it comes off more like a love scene in a bad soap opera.

Madman is a pretty average slasher movie from this period with not to much memorable scenes. It lacks a bit in the gore department with to many off screen slashings. We do get some decapitations, throat slashings, hangings and a head is even cut off with the hood of a car. All in all it gets a bit repetitive but I suppose its a good time waster. Especially for those who don't expect much from their Slashers. So if you want him just say his name. Madman Marz will come take your head.

Mulholland Dr. (2001)

David Lynch gives us another weird one. It doesn't make much sense and it leaves you staring into space wondering what the fuck you just watched. I am partial to this one. I like the mood and dream like feel and certain parts are creepy while others are depressing and then we even have stuff that is pretty damn funny, especially a scene involving a hit-man who is having a pretty hard time pulling off a clean murder. On the other hand Mullholland Dr. is to damn long and it gets a bit slow. The runtime on this one is about 2 and a half hours long and I personally find myself getting sleepy some where around the half way point.

We do get this creepy burn-victim-bum who hangs out behind a dumpster of some shitty restaurant. Its to bad this guy doesn't have more screen time because he probably is the most entertaining character in the whole movie. That is of course aside from the incredibly sexy lead actress Laura Harring and she does do a few nudie scenes. She even does some lesbian things with Naomi Watts.

If you get aggravated easily when movies do not make sense. I would stay far away from this one but on the other hand if you can think of this as a weird dream you might find it strangely entertaining. I just wish there was a bit more flesh from mrs. Harring.

Oldboy (2003)

Oldboy is by far the best in the Chan-Wook Park Vengeance trilogy. Its the story of Dae-Su Oh, a man who is drugged and locked away in a prison for 15 years. During these 15 years of hell Dae-Su Oh attempts escape, suicide and trains his body and mind for the revenge he will seek out when he is free.  "I'll tear them limb from limb and nobody will ever find the body because I'm going to swallow every last bit." Once Dae-Su Oh is set free he first needs to track down the "dick-shits" that did this to him. Once he finds his enemey he has to chose weather or not to kill them or find out why they did this to him.

Oldboy is very violent with scenes of tongues being cut out. Teeth being ripped out by claw hammer. Heads being smashed with hammers. Stabbings, pipes and bats being used in big rumbles, Kung-Fu, dismemberment, gun-fights and head shots complete with red splatter. We also get to see Dea-Su Oh eat a octopus while its still alive and the tentacles slap his face as the animal tries to escape its death by being eaten alive. The actor really did eat this octopus alive and the scene is extremely vile. Along with all the nasty violence and strange happenings Oldboy has a very down feel to it. With a very dark depressing mood and some pretty nasty subject matter, involving lies, deception, incest and suicide.

Despite the depressing tone and dark subject matter, Oldboy still manages to be a beautiful work of art with amazing camera work that not only shows off beautiful shots but also adds to the story. The suggestive camera angles only serves to make the brilliant script stronger. In other words Oldboy is a Cinematic genius in every sense of the word. From the story to the cinematography and from the entertaining action to the incredibly sad tone.
Oldboy is a movie that really should be seen in its original Korean language with subtitles to be appreciated. I watched it for the first time dubbed recently and the dubbing really takes a lot away from the over all experience.

Lady Terminator (1989)

Lady Terminator also known as Nasty Hunter is the first Indonesian film I have ever seen to my knowledge and its still probably my favorite. This crazy exploitation flick comes from the same lunatic that did Mystics In Bali and the ultra crappy Dangerous Seductress, which you can also read about on here. This movie on the other hand has to be the strangest take or weirdest rip off of Terminator in history.

It starts off with an Indonesian goddess (or witch) having sex with a dude with a crazy mustache. In the middle of their roll in the hay, blood starts spewing up all over the mans face. It turns out that this witch has a very hungry vagina and eats a lot of penis. The witches husband doesn't approve of all the fornicating and castrating and when he confronts her a snake slithers out of her vagina and turns into a dagger. She then places a curse on her husbands great grandmother. Fast forward a hundred or so years to 1989 and a young student becomes possessed by the evil witch after the snake enters her snatch. I know what you're thinking... This doesn't sound like The Terminator at all.

Well from here on the movie turns into a crazy exploitation version of The Terminator. In fact dozens of scenes are reenacted perfectly. We have the police station massacre, The 80's new wave club shoot out, scalpel to the eye, the shoot-em-up car chase scenes and of course some hungry, penis-munching, vagina action for good measures. Even the love scene is redone and let me tell ya, the dialogue leading up to that scene is just special. We also get piss drinking, lots of blood, naked Lady Terminator, eye violence, testicle kicking, really shitty 80's pop rock (Indonesian style), A bad-ass weed-smoking, mullet-head who kind of talks like he is in one of those Bill And Ted movies, burn victims and theres even some tanks and planes used in combat scenes.

Yes Lady Terminator is insane and yes Lady Terminator is a must see for anyone who loves off the wall movies from mars. Watch this one alone or with a group of beer guzzling friends. Either way its a great time and belongs in your collection. Mondo Macabro puts out a nice dvd print of this one and the dvd also offers up a great documentary on Indonesian exploitation films. I love this dvd with all my heart even if the packaging does lie and says there are more then one trailer on it. Yeah you guessed it, we only get the trailer for Nasty Hunter on here but hey, that's better then nothing and Mondo Macabro forever has my approval after releasing this one.

King Of New York (1990)

Christopher Walken is Frank White, a drug king pin who is just released from prison. Frank gets back to work immediately killing off other drug lords and trafficking drugs. He plans on using the dirty money to help the poor people of the city, unless the police, enemies or traitors get to him first.
Directed by the great Abel Ferrara (Ms. 45, Driller Killer and the original Bad Lieutenant) with a great cast. Laurence Fishburne, Victor Argo (Taxi Driver, Bad Lieutenant) and of course walken. Together the cast and crew perfectly depict a changing city and the inner struggle of a man deemed a criminal. The thing that makes King Of New York so interesting is the character of Frank White.

Hes a man who on the surface seems to be a pretty bad person capable of doing horrible things. "I have done things that you couldn't stomach to think of" but unlike Travis Bickle as the film goes on we realize that maybe he is a man of moral justice in some weird way. "I never killed anyone who didn't deserve it".


On the other hand its a bad-ass violent, shoot-em-up movie with crazy gun fights and we even get a bit of tit. King Of New York also taught me that Tampons are used for plugging up bullet holes. Then we get the china town mobsters who sit around in small grindhouse theaters watching Nosferatu. "Stick around. I have Frankenstein coming on next". Seems like my kind of people. Another thing that makes this movie amazing is that when its all over, like Bad Lieutenant, it keeps you thinking. I personally feel there are no good guys in this movie. Not Frank White or the police. They all have their own moral standards and believe that they are doing something good but in the end nobody is Innocent.

Nightmare (1964)

This one also went under the much cooler title, Here's the Knife, Dear: Now Use It. If William Castle was the low budget Hitchcock then Nightmare (1964) is a big budget William Castle. Well okay I wouldn't go as far as to say big budget but there certainly is some production value going on in here. We have some very good acting. A nice crisp picture on black & white film using shadows and lighting for atmosphere. The story was well written, filled with twists and turns. We also are treated to nice camera work and when we add these things all together we get a creepy little British horror film called Nightmare.

For me the most surprising element to this picture is that it was a Hammer film. Not particularly being the biggest fan of Hammer films, I was quite pleased with this impulse buy. As I mentioned before I couldn't help but be reminded of some of Castles films from this era. Stuff like I Saw What You Did And I Know Who You Are. For some reason even The Tingler came to mind, which really doesn't make much sense considering The Tingler is a campy monster flick where this one is a well written horror/mystery. Still I feel that William Castle fans will be happy with this one.
Its the story of a high school girl who is haunted with the memories of her 11th birthday. She had her presents, her birthday cake and the privilege of watching her mother slay her father with a big kitchen knife. Her nightmares get worse and worse until she can no longer tell dreams from reality. Of course it doesn't help when money hungry scumbags are playing little tricks on you and trying to drive you further into madness. Needless to say there is a few more kitchen knife slashings and stabbings and there are a few moments that are sure to get a jump out of you.
Check it out if you're in the mood for something a little less on the campy side and a little more on the creepy, eerie, mystery side.  From the same director who did Tales From The Crypt (1972) and Dr. Terrors House Of Horrors.

Diamonds Of Kilmandjaro (1983)

Another piece of crap from Jesus Franco. This Amazon Girls flick is one out of the thirteen or so films that Franco put out in 1983. I'm pretty sure I haven't seen any of his others that came out that year but its a little hard to keep track of a man who has directed about two hundred movies. I'm still trying to figure out if like more Franco films then I dislike. Right now my tally is looking pretty negative.

This one is pretty damn boring straight through. Its not a cannibal flick but it does take place in the amazon. I suppose it would fit into the slim Women In The Amazon genre. Its about a group of explorers who are searching for gems in the jungle. They stumble across a  bare breasted white girl amongst the black natives. The girl along with her father went down in a plane crash and the couple have been missing ever since, The nudie white girl is worshiped by the black natives and is believed to be their goddess.
My question is, if this girl has been missing for so long and running around with no clothes on... Why does she still have tan lines on her breasts? Anyway the nude girl is kind of like the female version of Tarzan. She is one with the animals and she swings from tree to tree with a hell of a battle cry.
The film also offers up a bit of decapitation and a really funny chase scene involving a hungry alligator and a naked bimbo. The alligator gets shot down is stock footage that matches up worse then a Ed Wood film. We get a total of three naked women and a monkey pops up from time to time and makes faces at the camera. The films final has a strange social message to it about the oppression of the black man and the evil whites.
I'm going to stop writing before I make this thing sound better then it is. If you want Women In The Amazon, check out Man From The Deep River. I would skip this one at all costs. It really has nothing going for it,

Female Trouble (1974)

Pink Flamingos was a giant success for John Waters. Female Trouble being his next film, I'm sure he had a lot of weight on his shoulders. Was the world really ready for his brand of trash cinema or did he just get lucky like Damiano with Deep Throat?  Either way Female Trouble upholds the level of filth that Flamingos gave us and still manages to be fresh.

Female Trouble is set in the 60's and its quite hilarious to see Divine as Dawn Davenport with a bee-hive haircut and a sheer green Mu mu. All Dawn Davenport wants for Christmas is a pair of cha cha heels and we all know that "nice girls don't wear cha cha heels!" Plus Dawn has been a very bad girl. Eating Meatball hero's in class and smoking in the girls room. When Dawn doesn't get her cha cha heels for Christmas she smashes the place up and beats up her mother, leaving mom bruised up in a pile of smashed gifts and a knocked over Christmas tree. Dawn runs away and is immediately raped by herself. Yes that's right Divine plays two characters, a male and I guess a sort of female and its pretty amazing watching Divine rape herself. After the rape Dawn finds herself pregnant and she gives birth to a total brat named Taffy, played by Mink Stole.

Edith Massey also shows up in here as a lesbian and in one of the films most disturbing scenes Massey fondles her naked breasts in front of the camera. The rest of the time she walks around in tight black spandex until she is locked in a cage and has her arm chopped off.
We get the usual John Waters insane dialogue where every line is a perfect trashy quote. "Queers are just better... I worry that you will work in an office, have children, celebrate wedding anniversaries. The world of heterosexuals is a sick and boring life.". We also get the usual Waters serial killer talk "I blew Richard Speck" and of course an extreme tacky wardrobe. The soundtrack is awesome as usual with a great title song and a track from Nervous Nervous called Dig.
Although she doesn't eat dog shit in this one Divine's character is more depraved then ever. By the end of the film she has a giant Mohawk and her face is all scared up from acid. She is a thief, a murderer and she believes she is beautiful. You just have to laugh at this stuff. She eventually has a trial and is convicted to death row where she will get the chair.
One of John Waters best. A total snotty, disgusting trash-fest right out of the sewer.

Killing Spree (1987)

This Tim (Truth Or Dare : A Critical Madness) Ritter camp gore-fest was shot on 16mm and blown up to a Texas Chainsaw Massacre 35mm but this thing doesn't come out looking anything like Hoopers gritty classic. The film quality on this thing is so low that Killing Spree comes out looking only a step above video. Despite its shot on video look. Killing Spree is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine.

Mainly because of the ridiculous looking main character. The characters name is Tom Russo and hes played by a man named Asbestos Felt. Unfortunately Mr. Felt only has three credits to his name to date and they are all Tim Ritter movies. I don't know how he looks in his other roles but in this one he has so much hair. Between his crazy GBH style hair cut and his totally out of control beard. There really isn't anymore room on this mans head for hair. Then when he gets crazy and is about to go on a Killing Spree, they put him under a red light and they mess his hair up even more and he makes some crazy faces and goes into a sort of shaking convulsion. We also have the privilege of seeing this man in black spedo man-panties. Trust me it makes for a very odd scene.

The main problem with Killing Spree is it has the world thinnest plot. I have seen more elaborate stories in pornography. Killing Spree is the tale of a man (Tom Russo) who goes on a Killing Spree when he finds his wife's diary. He kills off all of the men he believes his wife has cheated on him with and that's it.

Where Killing Spree lacks in plot it makes up for in gore. Its a totally ridiculous splatter-fest, with decapitated punk rockers, monsters with huge mouths (They give great head),  Lawnmower-fu, complete with finger dismemberment and brain damage, gut wrenching, intestines spilling, death by ceiling fan with machete blades, electrified guts, drowning, screwdriver through the top of the skull, a old lady gets a claw hammer through her chin and has her face ripped off, Zombies, etc.
Surprisingly there is no nudity in this one. We have lots of scenes of Tom's wife in her bra, panties and bathing suit but no naked flesh at all.
This one made it on to the I Will Dance On Your Grave box set and is probably the only one in the set with any value to it. On the other hand Killing Spree is completely mindless and should be skipped by anyone who  is looking for anything more then a shitty gore flick a ridiculous main character. Speaking of ridiculous characters keep an eye out for the fat guy in the cowboy hat. Why is he grabbing his package and doing a blaxploitation act?

Dangerous Seductress (1995)

The last film from the director of Indonesian oddities like Mystics In Bali and Lady Terminator. Unfortunately Dangerous Seductress lacks the originality and madness of those other two films. This one was released in 95 but plays more like a 80's flick. The special F/X are pretty crazy. Half the time we have practical gore and then the other half is really bad and annoying c.g.i.. We get a bit of nudity but nowhere near as much as I expected from a film like this. Instead we get all these scenes with girls in 80's style bikini's and underwear. For me the entertainment in this film is all in the gore. We have Mystic In Bali style flying heads, blood drinking, flesh melting off the body, a dog is decapitated, a finger is chopped off and then it crawls around and causes a bunch of trouble. We get a harpoon through the leg, bleeding windshields (don't ask), crazy gun fights and lots of explosions but aside from the silly gore this movie is awful. Most would consider it unwatchable but I however am easily entertained. Really not much to recommend here unless you really dig over the top F/X with horrible acting and even a worse dubbing.
