#TrashploitationTuesday Madame Wang's (1981) Paul Morrissey's near lost punk classic is a fish out of water story that deals with moral decay, social ennui, yet has a genuine affection for its plethora of oddball characters that exist on the margins of society.

#TrashploitationTuesday Laure(1976) W/ Linda Lovelace dropping out the lead, French beauty Annie Belle steps in. This Emmaneulle-adjacent film is shot beautifully. W/ paired back sleaze & a focus on the intersection between eroticism & mysticism, Laure, is spiritual softcore

Here's a twisted little fun fact: we've all seen those great #FrancoFriday posts venerating the great trash auteur Jess Franco. But DYK, the usage of #FrancoFriday actually started in Spain to glorify former Dictator Francisco Franco, and its use is banned in Spain?

#HumpdayHorror The Hills Have Eyes (2006) Released during a horrid era of (mostly) terrible remakes, Aja's THHE stands strong as a well paced and tension filled movie. W/ incredible cinematography and strong performances, there's an argument that the remake rivals the OG.

#TrashploitationTuesday Satan's Slave Underrated scream queen Candance Glendenning stars in trash auteur Norman J. Warren's black magic horror of country mansions, haunted woods and sketchy elites. Incest, blood and twisted morals abound - tho there is some dust with old age.

#HumpdayHorror Terror Train (1980) "Halloween on a train" is what they asked for, & what they some-what get, in this NYE slasher starring scream queen JLC, in a claustrophobic horror that somehow includes the disco-fied presence of magician David Cooperfield. Bloody good fun #newyears

#TrashploitationTuesday The Sadist (1963) Vilmos Zsigmond's first time as DP on a feature is a true marvel. The first film based on the crimes of Charles Starkweather (Badlands), is a hot, tense chamber piece, that uses the isolation of the Cali desert w/ perfect form. Oppressive and dangerous.

Original Belgian poster for Al Adamson's biker flick (and masterpiece) Satan's Sadists (1969). The marketing, and unique to this poster, uses the recent death of Sharon Tate for exploitative gains, with the tagline translating as 'Sharon Tate is dead...the others live'

#trashploitationtuesday Would it surprise you to learn that writer/director Sebastian Stein conceived this film while drunk off his ass? Filmed entirely in Africa and imitating a number of Enter The Dragon sequences, this looks destined to become a bad movie essential.

#humpdayhorror Less acclaimed than its predecessor, Gremlins 2 is a great horror film in its own right, and a vicious critique of corporate greed and franchise exploitation. At Joe Dante’s request, Chuck Jones came out of retirement to create the opening. #christmas #gremlins2

#HumpdayHorror The Beyond (1981) Fulci nixes narrative in favour of southern gothic surrealism in his 2nd entry into his Gates of Hell Trilogy. Gruesome death scenes and a fantastic Frizzi score make this Catholic zombie shocker a must see!
