Who doesn't love a good documentary? Their purpose is to be both informative and engaging. Over the past few years I've found myself discovering and watching various documentaries about movie directors. They're more or less seen as the driving creative force of a movie and because of that, one is left to wonder how they got inspired to do what they do and what their creative mindset is like.

One of the more interesting ones (to say the least) that I just watched was David Lynch: The Art L... Continue »

So I decided to put together a list of horror movies that I would like to see over the next few weeks. A lot of these have interested me for sometime now, but for one reason or another - I haven't got around to them.

I know, I know. If you've been on the internet for more than a year, this question is like for Horror Nerds 101 (nerd? Speak for yourself, bub!) I myself have been using the internet for, Christ, about 20 years now, so I've answered this question - on multiple message boards and chatrooms - tirelessly, and with fluctuating answers at that.

I was a Dawn of the Dead junkie for a good while there (isn't everyone at some point?) Then one day (he was shooting up some food, and up from the... Continue »

Since we have so many new users of late, why not get to know some of them? Continue »

Who do you prefer?

The slow and meticulous Frankenstein collecting body parts over time or Herbert West directly injecting his serum into any corpse he can find?

Who do you find to be more manic, grotesque or interesting?

I did it! I goddamn did it! Wiped the fucking floor with you all! Check it out! I won! The second annual Trash Challenge goes to me. ME! The eternally correct IMDb legend that was Tromafreak and your current Messiah has finally done it. Oh, God, it feels SO good to win a challenge, again!

Seriously, though. I'm still super hard from this victory, but you all did a swell job, this year. Didn't look like it was g... Continue »

Asian girls (Bing Bing Li) Giant Sharks and Jason Statham one liners. All I Want. Definitely Sold.

They even found a way to get tentacles in there for Bing Bing.

I hope the doggie is ok.

I also noticed Captain Mudd is in there.

Such a special movie for me. The kind that you don't like to watch often because you just don't need to. It's engrained in my mind, right down to certain sound effects and when they're about to happen. Maybe I don't watch it often anymore 'cuz I'm afraid I'll outgrow it.

Not the case last night, thankfully. As if I didn't already hold the film in high esteem, this latest viewing made me realize what an arthouse masterpiece it is, and that, perhaps, if Roger Watkins were more me... Continue »

Just as the title suggests, list some of your favorite vampire movies.

For me, it seems that like the zombie sub-genre - the vampire sub-genre has become exhausted. I feel vampire movies are dime a dozen and offer little in the way of originality and imagination so it is always refreshing to me to see a vampire flick that attempts to bring new ideas into the exhausted sub-genre.

I will list my top 10 favorite vampire movies. My list is quite irregular and you could say unusual. In order:... Continue »

I'm in the process of moving again. This is at least the 15th place I've lived, in the span of my near 30 year life. Safe to say, I move just about every other year. Holy hell, I just can't settle, can I?

Moving is a crappy process, but I've gone through it so many times, and re-evaluated my life and possessions just as many times, and it makes you wonder what's really important. What do you take, and what do you leave behind? Sentimental crap? Necessities? Are the sentimental... Continue »

So I was re watching Death Wish 3 and it left me with an impression and a few thoughts to describe it. The action movie of action movies. The sequel of sequels. One of the greatest shoot out scenes ever filmed.

Charles Bronson returns as the world's most dangerous pensioner, Paul Kersey. He's out to show the gangs who's in charge one bullet at a time and occasionally firing a rocket launcher inside an apartment building when the going gets tough enough. That's badass.

Makes Rambo look lik... Continue »

For any fans of that surprisingly popular piece of shit called "The Room", we have James Franco directing a movie about him playing Tommy Wiseau.

The Room has to be seen to be believed. Franco nails it.

It's back! Trash Epics' signature challenge which debuted a year ago, cheering up many of us after our home was destroyed by soulless cunts. This challenge is a broad one which allows any sub-genre of Exploitation you can think of, countless taboos, atrocities, cheese, and schlock. All that is fucked up and so bad it's good!

I'm really liking the "point a minute" thing we got going, but some challenges demand a point system wit... Continue »

So I was rewatching one of my favorite comedies Freddy Got Fingered once again and something occurred to me whilst doing so.

Is Freddy Got Fingered a Dada Masterpiece or simply a low brow comedy with a niche audience?

There are many elements of this film I feel are clearly stating something about repressed behaviour and acting socially acceptable. Exploration of the Id and acting out on it. Which in real life we mostly never do. There is a similar appeal in horror movies.

There has to b... Continue »

This is the progress thread for the 2018 Trash Challenge. If you want a month of gory/perverted/stupid fun, go ahead and get yourself a spot in this thread and I promise you will experience the most amazing month of your entire life.

Here's all the rules and shit. https://trashepics.com/post/9/185/

As we all know, low-budget Horror can be very hit or miss. Sure. Plenty of B-movies are entertaining without actually being quality films. Quality isn't always an easy thing to come by, or necessary. But there are low-budget Horror directors who can not only pull off a crazy, entertaining B-movie, while rising above their meager budget. Today, we're going to talk about a guy named Tim Ritter, and more specifically, his Truth O... Continue »

Super grimey follow up to the original Death Wish.

Charles Bronson is a no nonsense vigilante ready to make the punks pay. One of my favorite scenes is when Bronson is driving around and a street freak is on the street and Bronson doesn't bat an eyelid. He just doesn't care about fruits on the street.

I actually think it's a better movie than the original, though my favorite of the series is the ludicrously fun Death Wish 3.

It got a ton of hate and controversy and called worthless but... Continue »

I haven't had time to do this for quite a while and didn't buy much until the last few weeks.

Bought:

The Church
The Sect
Scalpel
The Legend of Spider Forest

Rented:

My Cousin Rachel
Don't Knock Twice

I've also pre-ordered Red Rings of Fear.

Make it make it, don't fake it!

Topic is self explanatory.

I'd go with either

A) When a girl throws up after you cum in their mouth
or
B) Bananas

Who here has seen Murder Set Pieces? Chances are you probably think it sucks. I don't know why, that's just what the general populace seems to think. I happen to really like it, and I stand by that notion in this very obvious minority. Well, not really like it, I find it somewhat entertaining at least. Certainly not as bad as most people seem to think. Sure the director might be an absolute and total manipulative douchebag, but lets not compare the artist to the artwork. Continue »

The ones you've seen. From favorite to least favorite.

Cannibal Ferox
Jungle Holocaust
White Cannibal Queen
Mountain Of The Cannibal God
Amazonia: The Catherine Miles Story
The Green Inferno
Cannibal Holocaust
Massacre In Dinosaur Valley
Eaten Alive!
Man From Deep River
Cannibal Terror
Zombie Holocaust

For my first ever review here in the Troma zone, I had planned on writing a review for what most people consider the greatest of all Troma movies, the Legendary Toxic Avenger. But in true Tromafreak fashion, I've decided to write about some random piece of shit that nobody cares about instead.

A terrible movie this is. Possibly the worst killer kid flick in existence. Out of all the so bad it's good Horrors of the 80's, the Troma Team always seems to go after shit like this. But sometimes, even shit like this can have redeeming qualities. Unfortunately, said qualities don't show up until the last scene. Continue »

Everybody loves Japanese Girls and Satanism. So putting them together into one movie seems like a great idea. Plenty of gore, witchcraft and lesbian sex scenes. But far less than the movie could have actually had.

This is pretty tame compared to Urotsukidoji: Legend of The Overfiend. But then again everything is.

Misa Kuroi, a very attractive Japanese witch indeed.

Apparently according to this movie Lucifer is a giant handsome blue Japanese man with white feathery angel wings. Most lik... Continue »
