New Tokyo Decadence: The Slave (2007)
Pink films cover a wide spectrum of fetishes and, especially considering Japan’s love affair with rope-play, it’s not surprising to find a bottomless pit of BDSM themed entries. Normally, I would steer clear of films of this ilk – not because of any moral qualms, it’s just that sadomasochism leaves me a little queasy. Intrigued...
Amsterdamned – Czech poster
Earlier this year in Prague, my partner and I visited Terry Posters and blew most of our travel budget there. Terry Posters specialises in Czech movie posters with the bulk of their catalogue from their Eastern Bloc past. We picked up several posters that were on our “must have” list, but also grabbed some fantastic...
Hilarious end credits from Chopping Mall
You know what’s awesome about Jim Wynorski’s Chopping Mall (1986)? FUCKING EVERYTHING: a great title, killer robots, action, violence, 80s haircuts, 80s music, a cool shopping mall setting, a short and sweet running time, Barbara Crampton, Dick Miller, Russell Todd… hell, even Paul Bartel and Mary Woronov show up to pay tribute to Eating Raoul!...
Manborg (2011)
When I first saw the trailer of Father’s Day, it was love at first sight. With lines like, “You know how many dads go missing around here, motherfucker?” and a plot that focused on the Fuchman, a rapist and murderer of dads, I knew I had to see it as soon as possible. This was...
Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead (2011)

Clifford (1994)
Clifford was kept on the shelf for 3 years, but trust me, if you haven’t seen it and when you do, not only will you be asking "Why does this exist?" you will also be asking "Thank you?"

Man scream
I know I only very recently posted a clip from an Andy Sidaris film, but after watching Day of the Warrior (1996), I just had to share this amazing moment with you. Enjoy one of the film’s heroes as he screams in terror…

Los Pelotones de Juan Camaney (1990)
What do you get when you put together some of the most beloved Mexican comedic actors and throw anything even remotely resembling a plot out the window? The answer is Los Pelotones de Juan Camaney (Juan Camaney’s Platoons). Luis de Alba is without a doubt one of Mexico’s most enduring film and television stars. With...
Live Wire (1992)
I know Pierce Brosnan has his supporters, but I just have to ask, how was this guy allowed a career? Did the producers of the James Bond franchise see Taffin before they hired him? Don’t get me wrong, I’m extremely pleased that Brosnan was blessed with a career far too good for an actor with...
Jack the Ripper – Swiss poster
In 1976, Jess Franco gave the world his version of Jack the Ripper starring the movie industry’s scummiest man, Klaus Kinski. As of writing this, I’m yet to see Jack the Ripper, but this poster that incorporates preliminary designs by Charles Copeland is phenomenal. Movie: Jack the Ripper Director: Jess Franco Country of movie: Germany/Switzerland...
