Tales from the Quadead Zone- 1987 (BC Video 1987) Tales from the Quadead Zone. This goes for roughly $1,000 on eBay. It's an anthology styled horror, sorta like Creepshow but in the same way Velveeta is like Gruyère. I got this at a flea market in Chicago a few years ago for like $20

Sledgehammer- 1983 (WVP Inc. 1983/Bootleg) "Flesh tears...bones shatter. The nightmare has begun!" Finally, the horror movie equivalent of having sleep paralysis. The film starts with a hilarious and inexplicable display of child abuse, where a mother locks her son in a closet so she can have sex with her lover undisturbed. They are then both dispatched vicously with a giant hammer while a very jarring/unsettling bass synthesizer soundtrack seemingly makes fun of you. 10 years later some 30 year old teenagers show up, drink beer and yell "WOOOO" in nearly every scene, hold a seance and get systematically offed by a 9ft tall masked maniac with a big hammer. Oh yeah, the killer can turn into a little boy at will. 9/10 Panic Attacks

Three On A Meathook- 1973. Regal Video 1985 Somewhere in between Psycho and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, there's Three on a Meathook. This Ed Gein inspired proto-slasher isn't the slimiest I've seen (that distinction goes to 1974's Deranged or probably The Toolbox Murders) but it's still ugly. Even uglier is the fact that I paid $99 for this stupid thing. I work a minimum wage job. I am not a smart person.

Friday The 13th (1980)

Old Blockbuster video ad promoting the YRV (youth restricted viewing) stickers. In the end this little freak was denied his rental and presumably massacred the entire cul-de-sac.

Ghoulies IV- 1994 Tristar I'll be completely honest, I haven't watched this. It can't be worse than Ghoulies go to college...or Ghoulies II...or Ghoulies. Jk this shit rules.

Night Feeder- 1988. Bleeding Skull Video 2015.

Only released on video in Poland, until last year when Mondo/Bleeding Skull put out this release.

It’s a weird police procedural drama with a backdrop of 80s goths dancing to The Nuns, people getting fucked up on experimental drugs, and an alien mutant drug monster baby that feeds on humans.

10/10
