Also! Here is probably my favourite youtube channel right now, Unboxed, Watched and Review. The host watches the most fucked up shit and has an endlessly endearing way of commenting what's going on. He is amazing. Also, in this video he throws up a lot. It's quite common, he has a weak stomach, but seeing how he manages to crack up jokes non-stop while throwing up is hypnotic. He is like the Michael Jordan of talking about someone eating shit.

Those are great films (esp. Fiend Without a Face- the first time I saw that was on Milwaukee's Nightmare Theatre when I was twelve years old)...One of the best Horror Hosts ever, Jack Dublon (RIP). He was also Albert the Alley Cat and helped with the local weather forecast as a wisecracking cat puppet...

Yesssss! Demons should be on everybody's list. The last great Italian exploitation film.There's definitely some good suggestions that others have suggested, especially Lemora, Deadbeat At Dawn, God Told Me To and The Story Of Ricky.goatlord wrote:And finally, the grimiest, most disgusting giallo film ever made, Buio Omega (with soundtrack by Goblin!). Also, probably the only great Joe D'amato film. You'll need a couple of showers after watching this fucking film.Yep, this one is a nasty little film (with possibly the best Goblin soundtrack outside of an Argento film), but as a Joe D'Amato fan I'll also have to recommend Anthropophagous The Beast (a woozily dreamlike little film that I will defend against everybody) and Absurd (wonderfully enjoyable trash that tries and fails to pass itself off as an American movie).

Let us not forget this masterpiece, either. Apparently there's a 3 hour director's cut out there somewhere which I'll have to pass on. The 85 minute version is all you need.

Just watched Los Angeles Plays Itself. This was shown in it and have to track it down goatlord wrote:I don't know if you can consider Messiah of Evil trash cinema, but it's a hidden jewel of weird, off kilter cinema. It's like a Hammer movie made on heroin. Like the Velvet Underground version of Hammer. One of my most favourite movies.

I love these movies, my buddy and I get together on random Saturdays to watch a couple bad movies and we've just increased our list tenfold. Thank you PRF!

Seconding the mentions of Poor Pretty Eddie, Massacre at Central High, and Messiah of Evil. Poor Pretty Eddie in particular is such an excellent and bizarre piece of exploitation cinema with a wild wild cast (Shelly Winters, Slim Pickens, and Ted Cassidy!?!) that were allegedly paid in cash thanks to some sketchy financing for the film. Absolutely one of my favorite pieces of sleazy 70's grime.Along with Vampyres, I'll recommend a couple other José Ramón Larraz films. Symptoms and The House That Vanished. Dig both of those as they have a very particular mood to them. People either love or hate his films it would seem though, citing them as boring. Symptoms is probably my favorite of those though.

Timothy Carey's The World's Greatest Sinner is a really mind-blowing low-budget masterpiece in which an insurance salesman has an epiphany, renames himself God, forms a frantic rock 'n' roll band, and runs for president after promising eternal life to everyone.Night of the Lepus is a wonderfully ridiculous monster movie in which rabbits the size of Honda Civics run rampant in the Southwest. No matter how hard they try, the bunnies stubbornly refuse to be frightening. It's marvelous. One of my personal favorites of Roger Corman's output of the '50s, A Bucket of Blood concerns a nebbishy would-be artist working in a beatnik hangout who starts killing things and turning them into sculptures. All hail Dick Miller ... game show annoyance Bert Convey appears in a supporting role. Have you ever dreamed of seeing a movie in which Johnny Cash fends off the police by using Ronnie Howard as a human shield? Watch Door to Door Maniac (aka Five Minutes to Live) and scratch that off your bucket list. José Mojica Marins was a Brazilian actor and director who made some seriously deranged horror movies playing his trademark character Coffin Joe. At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul (aka à Meia-Noite Levarei Sua Alma) was his first, and it's still expressively bizarre 55 years after it was released. Leonard Kastle only directed one movie, but it's a doozy. The Honeymoon Killers is a stark and creepy horror-noir about a an angry, overweight spinster who falls for a con man who marries women, only to take their money and abandon them. They fall in love and her obsessive jealousy leads them into a string of murders. Martin Scorsese was the original director but was let go after two days of shooting for working too slow; Francois Truffaut cited it as a personal favorite. I can pass along more if anyone asks politely.
