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.
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?
Cannibal Ferox - Czech poster
Skimming Wrong Side of the Art, I came across this BATSHIT FUCKING INSANE poster for Cannibal Ferox. I'm questioning whether this is even real. IS THIS REAL? OR IS THIS SOME AMAZING ELABORATE PRANK?
One on Top of the Other - US poster
We've featured many posters for Lucio Fulci films on Mondo Exploito. There's something about Fulci's work that inspires great advertisements.
Hansel e Gretel (1990)
It's hard to say whether Fulci at any point sat in the director's chair during the production of this. My guess is no. Though Fulci was not at the top of his game in 1990, his flourishes could still be seen in even his cheapest work. None are apparent here.
Incredible transformation from I Vampiri
A bit stilted and stiff, I Vampiri is certainly far from Italy's best genre offerings, but it does feature some inspired moments. Perhaps the most impressive sequence is this incredible transformation.
Butt-biting vampire
I assumed the outrageous image of Lando Buzzzanca sinking his teeth into a naked lady's ass found on the Dracula in the Provinces poster was purely a bit of lurid false advertising. Having now seen the film, I can happily say that assumption was wrong.
Death Smiles on a Murderer - Italian poster
Despite being directed by the great Joe D'Amato and starring the loony Klaus Kinski, I had somehow never heard of Death Smiles on a Murderer. This poster really makes me want to see it!
The Devil’s Honey - Italian poster
Long before I watched The Devil's Honey, I had come across its extraordinarily sleazy poster. From the perky nips showing through an open dressing gown to the beautifully painted salivating dog, this is pretty much perfect 80s locandina trash.
Alice Cooper blows a guy’s head off with a shotgun
How many films can claim they feature Alice Cooper blowing a guy's head off with a shotgun? Probably just Monster Dog. Thanks, Claudio.
Kid murder dream in Fulci’s Voices from Beyond
Last year I reviewed Fulci's Voices from Beyond. In the review, I mentioned the film's jaw-dropping opening where a child is viciously murdered in an insane dream sequence. I felt it was worthy of its own Clip of the Week post.
Sexual training montage courtesy of the SS
In SS Girls, Mattei directly "borrows" from Salon Kitty and gives us a wild, and very silly, sexual training montage where SS-trained girls are forced to fuck fat and deformed men, fire guns, fence, and, uh, spin around in lycra suits.
