Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

BaronBl00d I was surfing Netflix and came across this streaming. Then it occurred to me that I seen this "box cover" before countless times in the video stores in the late 80s and the 90s. Who would not remember such a wonderfully imaged artwork as he was looking through video boxes on shelves. Those were the days. I love streaming, but I do miss those old-fashioned Mom and Pop video stores that were everywhere. Now, you get everything from home. I digress. This offering has a wrap-a-round story of zombies going to a movie theater to watch prevues from Mad Ron the projectionist, Happy a puppet zombie and Nick - the "normal" gut with the bald head and glasses. The zombie shuffle about, bring goodies to eat, take the goodies there at the concession stand to eat, pour blood over popcorn, shuffle about more, and sit down for some gory fun. The dialog between Nick and his Happy puppet is mostly fairly lame but fun nonetheless. The zombie make up is generally good for something like this. The prevues are all entertaining. I was writing down titles of things I must see - many of these I still have not seen. There is a whole host of various horror movie trailers from the 70s primarily though we get some 60s as well. We get some Mario Bava, Herschell Gordon Lewis, and some pretty famous films like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Black Christmas, and we get some lesser known offerings like Torso, Three on a Meathook(I have seen that one), and Africa: Blood and Guts(looks like a very nasty film). There are a few weird and exploitative ones too like the very uplifting Wildcat Women. The Ilsa trailer is very extensive as is the one for Night of the Bloody Apes, and as another viewer wrote, very, very gory. Overall, I recommend this as a neat little diversion. I enjoyed the movie trailers, the in-between segments, that wonderful artwork, and my brief yet vivid walk down memory lane. I bet the actual video today is worth a bit.

Woodyanders Deranged projectionist Mad Ron (essayed with suitably unhinged drooling panache by Ron Roccia) shows a movie theater full of rowdy grunting zombies a diverse assortment of wild, slimy, and graphic horror and exploitation film trailers from his private collection while nerdy ventriloquist Nick Pawlow and his foul-mouthed zombie dummy Happy Goldsplatt provide amusingly lowbrow comic relief. The trailers cover all the essential pleasingly sleazy bases: giallo (Dario Argento's "Deep Red"), Nazisploitation (the notorious "Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS"), zombies ("Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things," "Horror of the Zombies," "Bloodeaters"), classic drive-in horror ("Night of the Living Dead," "The Last House on the Left," "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre"), mondo shock docs ("Africa - Blood and Guts"), hardcore splatter ("I Drink Your Blood"), anthology flicks ("Tales from the Crypt"), demonic possession ("Beyond the Door," "The House of Exorcism"), and slasher romps (the seasonal slice'n'dice trailblazer "Silent Night, Evil Night"). Herschell Gordon Lewis fans will be in hog heaven thanks to the spectacularly grimy'n'grisly coming attractions for "The Wizard of Gore," "Blood Feast," "2000 Maniacs," and "The Wizard of Gore." A faux newsreel promo for a doublebill of "The Blood Splattered Bride" and "I Dismember Mama" is a totally over-the-top hoot and a half while the outrageously bawdy trailer for "Wildcat Women" rates as arguably the raunchiest of the whole sublimely sordid lot. Moreover, the wrap-around segments deliver plenty of tacky gore (zombies sprinkle blood on buckets of popcorn, one zombie rips another's eye out, a would-be bootlegger's eyes blow up real good and squirt the red stuff all over the place, etc.) and a handy helping of cheerfully shameless and tasteless humor. The crude shot-on-video cinematography, the cheesy shuddery synthesizer score, and primitive dime-store make-up effects add to rather than detract from the infectiously scroungy charm of the entire seamy enterprise. A sensationally scuzzy and unapologetic serving of prime putrid grindhouse slop.

Flixer1957 Produced by the aptly-named Off The Wall Video, this is the gore-hound's equivalent of being a kid locked in a candy factory. Trailers include THE UNDERTAKER AND HIS PALS; WILDCAT WOMEN; CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS; DERANGED; TALES FROM THE CRYPT; THE HOUSE THAT SCREAMED; THE Texas CHAINSAW MASSACRE; MAN FROM DEEP RIVER; THE CORPSE GRINDERS; DEEP RED; COLOR ME BLOOD RED; MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND; THE MUTATIONS; HOUSE OF EXORCISM; GOD TOLD ME TO; SILENT NIGHT BLOODY NIGHT; BLOOD AND LACE; BLOODY PIT OF HORROR; DIABOLICAL DR. Z; LADY FRANKENSTEIN; BEYOND THE DOOR; I DRINK YOUR BLOOD; THE GHASTLY ONES; THREE ON A MEATHOOK, and many more.Some previews, like the one for LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, are too short to do the movie justice. Others, such as the ILSA and NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES trailers, not only wallow in gore but rub your proboscis in it. Of special interest is the preview of Africa BLOOD AND GUTS which features animal slaughter and actual executions of humans–something to offend everyone! Others show gory little tidbits that never made it into the finished pictures. Fangoria's Dr. Cyclops found the framing device wearisome; I personally got a big kick out of watching the scatological–and undead–Happy and his nerdy pal screening the trailers for an audience of festering, limb-chomping, eyeball-munching zombies. (In the background at one point is a lurid poster for Andy Milligan's BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS–this is my kind of theater!)

goreboy80 Hosted by Nick and his demented zombie puppet Happy, they treat a theater full of zombies to 83 minutes of cool trailers from horror and gore flicks from 70's (mostly). Between trailers Nick & Happy tell some pretty lame jokes. Two things would've made this a little better.1.Less of Nick and his annoying puppet2.More obscure filmsOverall, its one of the best trailer tapes ive seen (and i've seen a few). 8/10Here's a a few of the trailers on the tape -I Drink your BloodDerangedThree on a MeathookLove me DeadlyCannibal GirlsDeep RedToxic ZombiesBlack ChristmasBlood and LaceBay of BloodIlsaLast House on the LeftTCMBlood spattered BrideI Dismember MamaTorsoBeyond the DoorOh yeah and by the way, Mad Ron is the cannibalistic projectionist chained to the projector.
