“Zombi 2”
as known as “Zombie” in the US and “Zombie Flesh Eaters” in the UK.
I saw this when I was five and that is my excuse when people ask what the hell is wrong with you?“
That poster bastard haunted my nightmares for years! I love him.
“Ilsa Meets Bruce Lee In The Devil’s Triangle”!
A movie that never was. But really should have!
This was a movie that was planned to star Dyanne Thorne and Bruce Li, and would have been part of the Bruceploitation cycle of the 70s. According to Dyanne Thorne’s commentary on the Ilsa box set DVDs, the film was set to go with he and Li signed to it but then it just fell apart due to problems with the producers. Otherwise it would have made for one of the all time great grindhouse exploitation films of all time! I guess the Kung Fu thrills of “Enter the Dragon” with the sex and violence of the Ilsa series, and the intrigue of both! I could easily see Ilsa working for Han.
Lucio Fulci’s “Zombi 3”.
After a botched theft of a bio weapon, one of the thieves is exposed and becomes a zombie. He infects others, but when the army burns his corpse, the virus survives, infecting birds who infect other humans. The army’s method is simple. Quarantine the area and kill every person they find inside, zombie and human alike, to check the spread and to eliminate the witnesses!
My all time favorite werewolf movies!
Dog Soldiers, Monster Dog, Project: Metalbeast, In The Company of Wolves, La Bête (aka The Beast), The Howling, Ginger Snaps, and Bad Moon.
“Screams of a Winter Night”
1979 anthology film about a group of college friends that go for a holiday at a cabin called “Coyote Lake” because of its constant howling winds. The lake has a colorful past and it supposedly cursed. It is hear that they decide to share scary stories.
Very creepy.
Screen shots from the infamous ice cream scene from “Assault on Precinct 13”. A little girl realizes that she has the wrong flavor of ice cream. She comes back to see Frank Doubleday as the “White Warlord” in the middle of brutalizing the ice cream man. He simple, coldly aims and fires a suppressed Mauser C-96 pistol through her ice cream cone and into her chest. He then returns to finishing off the ice cream man. This scene helped “Assault on Precinct 13” get an “X” rating for violence.
“Nightmares in a Damaged Brain” 1981
Horror movie about a lunatic who as a child chopped his parents up with an axe because he caught them having kinky sex. He is out of the asylum because of the new medication he is on. But, when he stops taking it and is plagued by horrific nightmares, he goes on a cross country murder spree!
Banned in the UK as a “video nasty”.
