BADass SINema Unearthed - Where we dig up blu-rays of the wild, weird, and wonderfully wicked world of classic grindhouse cinema. Celebrates the raw energy and unapologetic style of vintage exploitation films — from the slick swagger of Blaxploitation and the lurid allure of sexploitation to the gnarly thrills of monster mayhem and cosmic horror.
Low-grade exploitation – shot on VHS – is a damn funny thing to sit back and review. You pretty much know what to expect. Shoddy SOV quality, undisciplined filmmaking, blurry images, static shots, and – as this one features murderous scarecrows on the loose across ...
Originally planned to be a segment in a horror-themed film anthology and then later thought to be a b-movie budgeted serial killer who grinds women up with a lawnmower, The Lawnmower Man was always a tall order for any movie studio to tackle. When it finally came to ...
I don’t dream in cheesy music videos, but Tommy Drindle does. And his twisted music-fronted nightmare features a bikini-clad model shooting green lasers out of her eyes at the band members who lip sync poorly to the lyrics in the song. The model eventually hits a few ...
Even when Peter Cushing loses his cool, he doesn’t lose his cool. You must remember that. The world could be collapsing around him (as it often does in his movies) and the actor would still respond with his familiar blue-eyed logic and a pair of protective gloves. The ...
Wherever it is in the outer realm of this eternal existence that producer/director/writer Al Adamson now hangs his hat, here’s hoping it has one hell of a view of the heavens. His bankable B-movies – however cheap and trashy they come across – are endlessly entertaining ...
When I was a kid, it was this stupid movie that gave me a prolonged buzz. In one quick scene a small child gets destroyed by a bunch of zombies in a bathroom. It’s not grotesque; it’s implied as a horde of zombies gather round him to feast. In another, a doctor verbally ...
Masked robed figures populate the landscape of 16th century France in actor/writer/director Paul Naschy’s Inquisition. Fires rage, too. Decapitated heads rot on wooden posts. Red X’s appear on the doors of stone houses of the condemned. And the women – always ...
Just try to blow out these birthday candles, bitches! Madhouse (aka And When She Was Bad and There Was a Little Girl) is for those horror b-movie junkies who want their cake and eat it, too. Its sticky sweetness ...
Two lovely women. A cage. Bathing suits. One hour of air left. Predators everywhere. If 47 Meters Down isn’t a perfect b-movie example of sharkploitation for mass consumption then I don’t know what is. ...
Rat Fink lives in the shadows. It is a film about risk. And it lives in another time and another place, where classic cars travel high speeds and loners ride the rails as Ricky Nelson-like pop songs live and breathe as more than mere background music. It is a dangerous place ...
