Turkish Captain America beats up some goons

Turkish Captain America beats up some goons

Turkey's interpretation of its three famous titular characters is a fucking delight, especially Captain America who is just a regular guy in a silly outfit who punches the crap out of goons.
Sharks' Treasure (1975)

Sharks’ Treasure (1975)

Sharks' Treasure is the most off-putting, jarring cinematic nightmare I've seen in some time. And I'm not even sure if that's a bad thing.
Molester's Train - Japanese poster

Molester’s Train – Japanese poster

Molesting people on trains. It seems like it would be an absurdly specific fetish yet it spawned an entire sub-genre of pink films. We live in a strange and hilarious world.

Words of wisdom from Steven Seagal’s daddy

Here are some words to live your life by from True Justice, Seagal's super shitty TV show (yes, way shittier than Lawman).

The Case of the Bloody Iris – Italian poster

There's little I like in this world more than sleazy Italian posters for sleazy giallos.

Dream a Little Dream 2 is an endurance test to say the least. Watching the Two Coreys flounder and flop about the set is torture, but no scene is more distressing than this...

Spider Monster (蜘蛛怪)

I'm not going to lie to you. This article is an excuse to tell you to watch The Super Inframan.
An unexpected beat down from American Hunter

An unexpected beat down from American Hunter

American Hunter was apparently a key influence for Benjamin Marra's incredible Terror Assaulter (O.M.W.O.T.).

Outback Vampires (1987)

Outback Vampires (1987)

Outback Vampires is not a lost Ozploitation classic, but for all its slog, I'm glad I checked it out. There's enough head-scratching weirdness to make it a worthwhile watch. It would have been an incredible experience to stumble across this on TV.

I drank enough of his nut juice to drown a whale!

My favourite moment in Hot Lunch is when Desiree Cousteau and Brigit Olsen trade verbal blows in a battle for the film's (hysterically bland) leading stud. The dialogue has a John Waters-esque filth and absurdity to it. I love it!
Steele Justice (1987)

Steele Justice (1987)

In-between Karate Kids, Hollywood sought fit to grant Martin Kove a leading role in an action film. Does Kove have the charisma to pull off a starring role? Spoiler alert: no.
Heroes Three - Spanish poster

Heroes Three – Spanish poster

Mid-punch action! Beams of light! Furious faces! Weapons! I highly recommend clicking through to see a blown up version of this out of control poster for Heroes Three!
