666 (Beware the End is at Hand) 1 & 2 (2007)

666 (Beware the End is at Hand) 1 & 2 (2007)

A horned Lucifer screams, "I am Lucifer! I rule the Earth!" encouraging his demonic disciples to laugh manically as the audio peaks and distorts horribly. An appropriate opening considering the majority of 666 consists of poorly recorded screaming and laughing.

Wake in Fright - Czech poster

This Czechoslovakian vision of the outback is perfectly in tune with the themes of Kotcheff's stressful, sweaty masterpiece.
Best worst ending to a movie ever?

Best worst ending to a movie ever?

I'm a big, big Lucio Fulci fan, but even I can admit that he's made a few stinkers, the worst of which being The Sweet House of Horrors.

The Murder Secret (1988)

Fans of Fulci will get a big kick out of this. It is very much in tune with the madness he spurted out in the late 80s and early 90s. And it's really, really gory.

Killing Machine's trailer features an absurd amount of blood-spitting violence including face-punches, teeth smashing, tomato crushing and even a gunshot to the mouth!
Daimajin (大魔神)

Daimajin (大魔神)

Daimajin is nothing like any other giant monster featured in the Menagerie thus far. Just looking at his physical appearance, it's clear this guy won't be showing up in an episode of Ultraman.

These posters are pretty wild to put it mildly. Reoccurring themes start to become apparent. Snakes coming out of vaginas and babies being murdered are prevalent.
Planet Terror - Ghanaian poster

Planet Terror - Ghanaian poster

This Ghanaian poster for Planet Terror is all kinds of amazing. From the delirious screaming expression to the impossible stance, the artwork hurts when you look at it for too long. Those of us that have seen the movie must also ask, "who is that?"
Bach ke Zara (2008)

Bach ke Zara (2008)

Bach ke Zara looks like it could have come out only a couple of years after Sam Raimi's original film. The only giveaway to its production year is the costuming and a horrific, and amazingly out of place, dance number featuring a mud smeared sexy lady and muscle men.
All Monsters Attack (1969)

All Monsters Attack (1969)

It boggles my brain that Godzilla vs. Megalon (1973) cops the infamous reputation of being the worst of the Godzilla series. How could All Monsters Attack be forgotten?
Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters (1968)

Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters (1968)

Like all things, the yōkai have been stripped of their edge over the years, becoming more kid friendly with the ex-rapist kappa being a popular choice for gentle comic relief. Happily, Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters takes a darker approach.
