I'd rather he do something else, but that looks good.

Looks like we won't be getting much Spaulding, though. :(

yeah, i'm looking forward to it. hope my comment didn't come off as dismissive. just that it looks very "rob zombie", which i like.

recent (non-horror) trash watches

Image
&
Image

Zapped (1982) & Zapped Again (1990) - not as funny or nuanced as like, Weird Science, but decent 80s teen stuff. someone on letterboxd posted that if a gag where a map of florida has a ballsack scribbled onto it makes you laugh, then look no further

Image

Deadly Prey (1987) - probably a classic on vhs action at this point. so many good aesthetics, mullets, waterbeds, denim short shorts, troy donahue emotionally eating worms in the woods... great to watch, but dialogue and story were meh

Image

Venom - Seventh Date Of Hell (1984) - not the best Venom performance, but Venom is always a fucking blast

Image

Deathsport (1987) - not nearly the best Mad Max riff, but lots of great homemade futurist almost sci-fi elements. needs more bang though.

Image

Blood Debts (1985) - bizarre, nonsensical, rigid, strange, very cool

Image

L.A. Crackdown (1988) - love me some joseph mehri action trash, but this turned into quite the "heartwarming" after school special. hope the second is better.

I know there was a thread for tracking down old movies but I can’t find it. Whenever I see old vhs covers I’m reminded of a movie I would see at the video store but never rent that looked reminiscent of early 80s Chuck Norris Cannon flicks, but the hero on the cover was illustrated wearing a glove with spikes on it(?). The back of the box had a screenshot of nasty gore, like you couldn’t even tell what you were looking at. I’m pretty sure it had a goofy name too. We would laugh at it every time, but now I can’t find it on the internet. :(

It was similar to that but trashier looking, like it could have been something from pre-full moon Charles Band. I might be messing up some of the details. But definitely something about a glove and nasty gore on the back.

the fifth cord (1971) dir. luigi bazzoni

is this the most overlooked/underrated giallo there is? franco nero plays an alcoholic reporter who is being framed by a serial killer. it's a classic premise, and the plotting isn't exactly stellar, but it's all about the style

vittorio storaro shot after the conformist, and his compositions are just utterly gorgeous. great use of color and long shots really emphasize the rad italian architecture. morricone did the score, it's okay... not one of his best, I'm afraid

this is currently playing in nyc as part of a series of recently restored gialli by arrow. the dcp print I saw yesterday was eccellente. it screens again on thursday!

Any of you weirdos have Blood Hook, The Boogey Man (1980), Night Angel, or The Jitters lying around? Already planning for October and thought I might start stock piling.

Saw Crawl last night and really enjoyed it. Love a good sub-90-minute creature feature.
