Appeal For Help: Movie Suggestions
A good friend of mine (not pictured) is rather keen on gory and horror-themed movies. He’s asked me to post for suggestions as to how to expand his collection.
His most recent 15 additions (or on order) are:
* Santa Sangria
* BrainDead
* The New York Ripper
* Citizen Toxic – The Toxic Avenger IV
* The Gore-Gore Girls
* Splatter: Naked Blood
* Nekromantik (I’ve seen the first few mins of this one, stay well clear)
* Ichi The Killer
* Irreversible (actually a great arty French movie and worth watching)
* Street Trash (billed as “EraserHead” meets “Night of the Living Dead”)
* Audition
* Men Behind The Sun
* Redneck Zombies
* Visitor Q
* Ebola Syndrome
If any of you are suitably warped enough to share his taste then please add extra suggestions in the Comments.
Brain dead is good. All of the stuff that George Romero made of course – Day of Dead, Dawn of and so on but I think you’d know those already.
Maybe change some of these films into links to imdb or something?
Dog Soldiers is good too. British soldiers on exercise in Scotland attacked by werewolves. If your mate likes gore then maybe the Blade trilogy.
Just remembered “Dellamorte Dellamore”.
Wait for the bit where the graveyard attendant has to kill a zombie motorcyclist. He just shrugs and says something like “This is what I do and they pay me for it.”
Deathwatch. Spooky and violent horror in a haunted WW1 trench.
Flower of Flesh and Blood defo.
Cabin Fever is worth a watch.
Got Gore Gore Girls down. Sick stuff. Loved every minute.
Steve, I’m backing off of this thread as although all of these movies are completely legal, licensed and certified by the UK licensing authorities – my friend has just shown me ‘Street Trash’ tonight and there was a danger of dinner resurfacing.
I might revive this thread at the top of the blog but only without me watching any more films. I’m a soft-core zombie movie fan (Dawn Of The Dead sort of thing) but some of these offerings are too over the edge for my taste.
I’m happy to put out a further appeal maybe later but I’m going to be very firmly only doing it for a friend. The Eye will look elsewhere for entertainment.
