VISITOR Q -
If
you're into shock cinema and can find humor in the vile and disgusting
(or at least, despite it), then this film is a must.

KILL GIRL KILL 2 -
If youre a fan of the Suicide Girls and the more natural
alternative-looking girls (i.e. tattoos and Karen O hair cuts)
virtually anything Eon puts out is positively for you. Why, you ask? BECAUSE
YOU SEE THEM GET FUCKED.

CLUB DREAD -
I'm
not against horror comedies, which have been suffering a backlash from
other die-hard genre nuts, but I am against stupid movies.

YOUNG & THIRSTY -
These
girls are seasoned vets of the skin trade who attack cock with the kind
of brutal ferocity Rudy Giuliani unleashed on strippers and street vendors
back in the 90s.

- GORE GORE GIRLS -
The
strength of The Gore Gore Girls lies within its creative murder
scenes and sheer raw pounds of brutalized flesh.

LIMO CONFIDENTIAL -
Peach's
stylish releases are more fun than competitors' offerings in the genre
of wholesome, middle-America-leaning softcore.

- DISINFORMATION: The Complete TV Series -
It
ain't Disinformation's fault that the toughest outlaw-thinkers
these days happen to be stodgy old curmudgeons.

ISLAND FEVER 3 -
As
with most Digital Playground offerings, "Island Fever 3" is
an ideal choice for both genders and for couples... I'll bet even gay
dudes could get off to this.

RE-PENETRATOR -
Re-Penetrator
crosses lines you didn't know were drawn. It's more unnerving than the
decapitation videos out of Pakistan.

GEORGES BATAILLE'S STORY OF THE EYE -
McElhinney
gives us art that is arousing while giving us porn that is nauseating
and in the process he blackens our souls just a little bit more.

Talibano's Review)
- DORM DAZE -
While
it's not Shakespeare (and would we really want that from National Lampoon?)
it is much better than the tawdry DVD cover art would lead you to believe.

AZUMI -
This
is a damned fun movie, full of massive fight scenes with barrels of arterial
spray.

GOZU -
Miike
seeds a black humor in his movies that entertains as long as your antennae
is twisted enough to receive the signal.

CATHERINE -
Shot
predominantly on location in Budapest,
this movie goes above and beyond the usual adult entertainment. So if
youre sick of the usual predictable crap, I highly recommend adding
CATHERINE to your collection.

KING OF THE ANTS -
How
do you show someone ruthlessly crush a person's head in with a large kitchen
appliance and then go on to make an audience like them? It's tricky. Very
tricky.

GINGER SNAPS 2 & 3 -
A
common theme in these films seems to be "don't hit on Canadian goth
chicks."

Ryan-O's Review)
-
THE PROWLER -
Director
Joseph Zito and SPFX great Tom Savini knew that it wasn't
the story that would set this film apart, but rather how much blood they
could bathe the actors in.

HANGMAN'S CURSE -
Unfortunately,
the scariest thing in this film was David Keith's ill-advised eye
tuck.

MYRA BRECKINRIDGE -
Myra
Breckenridge manages to take an allegory about the constraints of
sex and the allure of Hollywood and make them seem about as interesting
as a wet paper bag.

GINGER SNAPS -
Ginger Snaps is a surprisingly good movie,
and it might just be our best Canadian import since Jason Priestley.

SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE -
Ah, the 80s! It was all about feathered hair, designer
jeans and maniacs who've escape from nuthouses seeking revenge on large
groups of teenage girls that are having unsupervised sleepovers. Wha?
I admit it was a kooky time

-
MONTY PYTHON'S MEANING OF LIFE -
Twenty years after its initial release, Monty Python's
final film The Meaning of Life remains their most fragmented, and
ultimately their least satisfying film. Having said that, it still definitely
has some fun moments and there's far worse ways that you could spend two
hours.

DELTA DELTA DIE -
Once in a blue moon, an exceptional tongue in cheek
gross out movie will come in under the radar. And even rarer is finding
a film where the lead character is so insane only Julie Strain could have
played her! You'll find both in this unusual treat which has arrived under
the title Delta Delta Die.

MAN BEAST -
When Connie (Virginia Maynor, a.k.a Asa Maynor)
goes to the Himalayas in search of her brother, she and her companions
get more than they bargained for. Seems her dear, crazy brother was injected
with a strange serum that could kill him if he doesn't get back to his
mother country. But the truth behind the Yeti legend may stand in their
way

CAVE GIRL -
Daniel Roebuck fondles her breasts, teaches her
to say "sit on my face" and pops some prehistoric cherry. All
in all, good clean fun.

-
ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES -
Umm
Yeah. Let's face it: this movie is mainly
known for the ridiculous title, which says "hilariously bad"
in 5 words. Unfortunately, after 25 years it can't be considered good,
and isn't bad enough to fall into the "so bad it's good" category.
That makes it fall into another category: "Just kinda lame."

JACK THE RIPPER -
Far from being another flick about Mac Daddy Ripper,
Rhino's DVD is actually a compilation of four poorly spliced together
episodes of the failed 1958 anthology TV series The Veil, hosted
by Boris Karloff.

DEATH MACHINES -
Filmed without a lick of style or an ounce of substance,
Death Machines still comes across as a pretty entertaining flick.

POLICEWOMEN -
If
you're in the mood for a slow moving action film with a travel montage
thrown in the middle, then Policewomen is right up your alley.

MALIBU BEACH -
Arguably
the best part of this movie comes in the form of a dog who runs around
the beach stealing girl's bras.

FLESHBURN -
The
moral of the story is this: don't piss off a psychotic Native American
dude, and if you do, make sure you've got a well-trained park ranger with
you at all times.

28 DAYS LATER -
28
Days Later is an excellent story about human survival, and while it
draws similarities to classic horror films (particularly George Romero's
zombie series), it is far more complex than the typical gore-fest.

BEAT
THE DEVIL -
Jesse
Jane plays an angel trying to outfuck the Devil, and damn if she doesn't
give old Lucifer an honest-to-God pounding. This
is not porn-as-you-know-it. It's actually a slick little movie with a
lot of really hot sex in it.

Jesus's Review)
-
DAWN OF THE DEAD vs. RETURN OF THE LIVING
DEAD -
While
Dawn is essentially a serious drama, it was much more humorous
than either of Romero's other zombie films. Return doesn't
even try to be serious, placing a group of punk and new wave teen stereotypes
smack dab in a cemetery filled with brain-eating ghouls.

JACK'S PLAYGROUND -
If
you like your porn with a sense of humor and gonzo-style camera techniques,
you'll probably dig this one.

ADRIANA -
Adriana comes very close to transcending the style-over-substance
tag. It's star, Adriana Sage, is an incredibly hot Latina who is fascinating
to watch no matter what she's doing.

JOHN CARPENTER'S VAMPIRES
-
The only reason I rented this was to see Sheryl Lee tied up. While
the gratuitous bondage scenes are worth the price of admission, I was
pleasantly surprised to find this an enjoyably tacky "B" horror
movie glossed up in big studio clothing.

ESCAPE FROM HELL
-
This here is your classic Italian women-in-prison sleaze epic. The film
details the struggles of a bunch of attractive, scantily clad (or just
plain unclad) female prisoners who are being used as slave labor to clear
a path through the jungle (why is not important).

REFORM SCHOOL
GIRLS -
Reform
School Girls succeeds as a fine addition
to the heritage of chicks-in-chains flicks. There is enough sex and violence
here to piss off humorless feminists and enough campy fun to please jaded
gay porn fans.

MAX vs.
THE BELIEVER -
A steel-cage match of the two newest propaganda films in der Fuhrer's
arsenal. With tag-team appearances by Romper Stomper, The Boys
From Brazil, Triumph of the Will, and American History X,
this battle review is proof positive that Talibano is the Hulk
Hogan of UnitShifter.

STARSHIP TROOPERS

BARRIO WARS vs.
LATIN KINGZ -
In this issue's second battle review, Talibano puts these two Latin Gangsta
movies to the test in a Trial By Ordeal including such rigorous challenges
as Which Looks Shittier?, Can Any of These Fuckers Deliver a
Line?, Who Put 'em on the Glass?, Which Gangstaz Ain't Nothin'
Ta Fuck With?, and Does This Shit Make Any Fuckin' Sense?

Nothing

from Shakespeare, but I won't even entertain that presumption).

Kingz might be good if you're high
