THE TAINT

“All your cocks…just got blocked!”

the_taint_posterThe Taint, well, can only be described as FUCKING MENTAL. The Taint is the story of Phil and his quest for survival in a world gone mad. The water is tainted and it’s turning the male population into misogynistic psychopaths. The misogynists are fucking insane! Killing women in the most brutal and insane ways I think I’ve ever seen in a movie. Chainsaws, caved heads, dicks through faces…yes you did read that right!

Did I mention that the misogynists have raging hard-ons that are constantly spraying cum during these attacks? Now I know you read that right! If you thought the dick biting scene in Troma’s Father’s Day was bad, you ain’t seen nothing yet! Coat hanger abortion, rape, murder, nudity, animal testing, domestic abuse and ultra violence are all covered in this movie. You name it, The Taint’s got it with bells on.

Enter some very odd and interesting characters; Phil, a school boy with amazing hair, a love of sunglasses and a magnum; Lunas, who has a serious eastern ‘bad guy’ feel to him, in the same vibe as you would see in an 80’s martial arts movie; Houdini, Phil’s ex-PE teacher with a love of fisting and his crew of outcasts (Who have some cracking name I must say!) plus the animated daddy rabbit in the laboratory.

The Taint is a well-put together film full of craziness. I can see why there are some negative reviews out there for it. It’s a shockingly violent over the top comedy with sadistic tones, homophobia, sexism and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. It’s possibly the most deranged movie I’ve ever seen. It’s certainly not for everyone and could easily be shrugged off as a film made just for the shock factor.

Would I recommend The Taint? Fuck yeah! It’s certainly not a date night movie, but if you like the more ‘out there’ fucking mental gore fest movies, you NEED to get a copy. If you like your horror spooky with a sense of values steer clear. It’s definitely not a good Christmas present for mum!

As a little extra on the Troma Blu-ray/DVD double disc release, there is a Lloyd Kaufman directed music video for ‘The cleaner’ by FAGGOT. It shows before the main feature and is fucking awesome. Real trash punk about rimming. The best way I can describe it is a GG Allin music video, on crack, directed by GWAR and set in a man’s rectum. If you’ve ever wanted to see someone play drums with the Toxic Avenger’s penis, this is a must watch!

BRING ME THE HEAD OF THE MACHINE GUN WOMAN

Ever wanted to see Grand Theft Auto the movie?

This weekend we visited the Film 4 Frightfest at the Empire cinema in Leicester Square to see a preview screening of the Chilean exploitation movie: Bring Me The Head Of The Machine Gun Woman. We weren’t disappointed!

Bring Me The Head Of The Machine Gun Woman is a Latin 70s exploitation style story. Santiago, a video games obsessed loser whose job it is to DJ in a local bar run by Argentinian Mob boss Che Sausage,  overhears a conversation between Sausage and his most trusted gang members. He is found and forced to either bring in or kill the country’s number one hit man; the Machine Gun Woman, whilst being followed by Boss Sausage’s henchmen.

A whole heap of assassins are also after the Machine Gun Woman, from street performers to hustlers and gangsters. Each assassin is introduced to us via a splash screen of their names and the value of the bounty on their heads in a very cool GTA style. Gun fights, brutal deaths and super stylized violence a plenty, plus a few laughs. I get the feeling that Boss Sausage was only named that so that it could be used in a single one liner, but it’s a good one, so I’m not even mad about it!

The Machine Gun Woman herself is super sexy, super violent and hard as nails. A very cool opening scene in a convenience store hammers these facts home with venom.

Bring Me The Head Of The Machine Gun Woman is an absolute blast of an exploitation flick. It’s fun, violent and sexy with some great nods to the Grand Theft Auto series. The GTA style missions gave me a big smile each time they flashed up and the first-person-shooter style kill-cam shits all over the movie DOOM, with the scores racking up as we go along.

If you are a fan of exploitation movies, a fan of video game movies or a fan of world cinema, I would recommend Bring Me The Head Of The Machine Gun Woman whole heartedly. The only draw back to it is that it’s subtitled. Now don’t get me wrong, it doesn’t usually matter to me if a movie is subtitled, but I just feel that some of the jokes in Bring Me The Head Of The Machine Gun Woman have been lost in translation. I may be completely wrong, but it did feel like it.

There is a particular scene in the movie that could signal a sequel, and I would absolutely love to see it happen!

Bring Me The Head Of The Machine Gun Woman is available in the UK on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download from the beginning of October. Get it while its hot!

STREET TRASH

03/08/2013 by Dan-e-Gory in Exploitation | Comments Off on STREET TRASH

Prepare for a molten hobo holocaust!

 

220px-StreettrashStreet trash is a gore-fest of a tale of New York tramps and toxic booze. A money grabbing liquor storeowner uncovers a crate of Viper liquor buried deep in his store cellar and without a thought, puts it on sale for a dollar a bottle. Enter the tramps, buying, stealing and drinking as much Viper as they can. The noxious hooch has one ingredient that’s not listed on the bottle…DEATH!

 Street Trash follows a bunch of hobos; Fred, a down and out with a good heart; Bill James, a hard as nails cop; Bronson, the deranged king of the hobos (a Vietnam veteran with a knife carved out of a human femur) and Mr. Duran, a local gangster.

Chuck in hookers, bizarre Nam flashbacks and dream sequences, hobo sex, necrophilia, cock keep-away (yes, you did read that right) melting tramps, brutal fist fights, young love, and you’ve got a gore-soaked, truly unhinged story.

 If you have a strong stomach and a sick sense of humor, you’ll love Street trash. It everything that is right with low budget gore flicks. Check it out!

BLACK DEVIL DOLL

He’s a lover! He’s a Killer! He’s a muthafuckin’ puppet!

 

black devil doll

Imagine the scene; you’ve borrowed the VHS of Child’s play that your uncle Ben has taped off ITV on a Wednesday night. You remember the break they used to put in for the 10 o’clock news? Well your uncle Ben has managed to tape the 10-minute teaser and a clip of your aunty Doris snorting a line of coke off a Pilipino boy while they were on their holidays in Margate. Chuck in some scat, and that’s devil doll in a nutshell, it’s completely insane!

 

The story goes: on the eve of the execution of a murderous member of the Black Panther movement, a teen (with huge boobs!) unwittingly channels the killer’s spirit while messing around with a Ouija board. Queue scantily clad/naked women and a ventriloquist with murder in mind.

Now, this film is definitely not for everyone. In large letters on the front of the DVD case it states “WARNING: This film offends everyone”. Its full of rape, drugs and murder, plus plenty jokes about all of this to rub salt in the wounds. Also, the cleanest woman in the world is in this film…

 

SHES NAKED IN THE SHOWER FOR 75% OF THE FILM!

 

In all honesty, this film is crap. It’s a full-blown exploitation film, which I (as a fully grown man) had to turn the volume down so my housemates didn’t think I was watching hardcore porn. But, I absolutely loved it! It’s so unbelievably over the top, with its tongue jammed firmly against the inside of its cheek. It’s a truly independent film that I’m surprised Troma hasn’t picked up.
