This is the end, my friends

This is the end, my friends

If you've been following our Facebook or if you've read our last couple of posts, you'll know that Mondo Exploito is closing its doors. This is, in fact, the last ever post.
The Cat (1992)

The Cat (1992)

This is about a kung fu space cat fighting an interstellar blob and it was directed by the dude who did Riki-Oh; how do you THINK this is gonna go down?
The Tiger Attacks aka The Beast is Loose - Czech poster

The Tiger Attacks aka The Beast is Loose – Czech poster

When I was asked to do Mondo Exploito's final ever poster of the week, I felt strangely intimidated by the task. I've been lucky enough to contribute to Mondo Exploito since the beginning and it sure is sad to see it end.
A very Aussie Christmas

A very Aussie Christmas

Goon bags. Baked beans. Eggs. Swearing. It's perfect. And though it's absurd, it's somehow incredibly accurate and reminds me of the Christmases of my childhood. Yikes.
Dora Goblin (ドーラゴブリン Dōra Goburin)

Dora Goblin (ドーラゴブリン Dōra Goburin)

Kyouryu Sentai Zyuranger is varied in its villains and monsters. They can be terrifying as fuck. They can be destructive forces of nature. Or they can be children-napping, accordion playing dorks.
The Malibu Bikini Shop - German poster

The Malibu Bikini Shop – German poster

I love how this poster for The Malibu Bikini Shop is as cartoonish as it is sleazy.
Oh my god!

Oh my god!

I'm watching Miami Connection for the first time tonight, and I'm fucking excited.
Massage Parlor Murders! (1973)

Massage Parlor Murders! (1973)

Massage Parlor Murders! is fucking great. It delivers on sleaze and stupidity. The death scenes are filthy and crass. The nudity is rampant and gratuitous. The performances are big and stupid.
Blazing Zippers - US poster

Blazing Zippers – US poster

Do I really need to give a preamble to this poster? Everything that is great about it SCREAMS at you without the need for critical dissection.
Secret toilet passageway

Secret toilet passageway

I can't believe this is my second clip of the week from Stuart Gordon's Space Truckers. I guess it must be a seminal sci-fi masterpiece after all...
The Deadly Camp (1999)

The Deadly Camp (1999)

It’s always interesting to see the debut film of a master filmmaker. It could be a brilliant slice of cinema that shows us genius from the beginning — like, say, John Cassavetes’s Shadows. Or, like Takashi Miike’s Red Hunter: Prelude to Kill, it could be a total pile of shit...

This is how you end a movie! Part III

Hong Kong has already given us two examples of how to perfectly wrap up a movie, and now sex comedy stinker Stooges in Tokyo brings their score to a hat-trick.
TAETER CITY: Take a Tour in the City of Cannibal Dictatorship (2012)

TAETER CITY: Take a Tour in the City of Cannibal Dictatorship (2012)

If you're turned off by gore, you're given about three seconds to leave before shit hits the fan. If that's your thing, you've got about 80 minutes of spraying blood and crushed skulls ahead of you.
Sanda (サンダ) & Gaira (ガイラ)

Sanda (サンダ) & Gaira (ガイラ)

With their humanoid design, Gaira and Sanda are unique in the world of kaijū cinema. They have distinct personalities, making them far more interesting than your average destructive force of nature.
Compañeros - US poster

Compañeros – US poster

This poster is just ridiculous nonsense. Look at that gun! Look at the inexplicable severed head! How could one not be desperate to watch this movie after encountering a poster such as this?
Zatoichi eats a rock

Zatoichi eats a rock

Sometimes Zatoichi is a total blind bad-ass and cuts down like a thousand guys with his sword. Sometimes, as seen in in Zatoichi Challened, Zatoichi eats rocks then regurgitates them back into his mouth to teach weird, confusing lessons to cackling shitty children.
Foodfight! (2012)

Foodfight! (2012)

Foodfight is a completely inexplicable film. Ten years, $65 million, a stellar cast and the misguided vision of an industry veteran has resulted in an ugly, ridiculous mess that shouldn’t have made it to release, but I’m glad it did.
Gore-met, Zombie Chef from Hell - VHS cover

Gore-met, Zombie Chef from Hell – VHS cover

Gore-met's video cover brings back waves of nostalgia. I remember seeking it out every time my parents and I visited the local video store, staring at it from a safe distance.
Brion James nightmare

Brion James nightmare

The late Brion James was brilliant and out of control in everything he was in, but his role in House III: The Horror Show is particularly spectacular. Check out this incredibly insane nightmare sequence that features James decapitating a child and dressing in drag.
Trapped in Lust (1973)

Trapped in Lust (1973)

Trapped in Lust is exactly the sort of pink film that got me interested in the genre in the first place. From its super cool poppy soundtrack that always kicks in at the right moment to its swaggering leading man, this is a film dripping in style.
Bunny Lake Is Missing - UK poster

Bunny Lake Is Missing – UK poster

While Otto Preminger may not be an obscure name in the world of cinema, I didn't want to pass up the opportunity to feature the post for his 1965 film Bunny Lake Is Missing.
Demon lady in Wicked City

Demon lady in Wicked City

Hong Kong's live action adaptation of Wicked City is a bit hit-or-miss, but it does have a handful of incredible moments. This scene featuring a demented demon lady is certainly one of those moments.
Shark Alarm (2004)

Shark Alarm (2004)

Shark Alarm's efforts are endearing. And if you can't get any joy out of TV's Conan the Barbarian, Ralf Moeller, blowing up a shark from a helicopter, than god help you.
