Hi there! If you’re a mom, Happy Mother’s Day. And if you’re not, you better go do something nice for your mom or else run the risk of being given back to the gypsies that she got you from. (Incidentally, there’s no shame in being a gypsy adoptee. According to my sisters, I was left in the backyard by a wandering gypsy band and just look at me now…)
Here’s the latest edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film Trailers for you to watch and maybe (or maybe not) enjoy on this temperate Sunday….
1) Teenage Mother (1967)
I’ve featured this trailer before but I figured that since it’s Mother’s Day…
2) The Bloody Brood (1959)
Yes, this is the same Bloody Brood that I reviewed on this website a few days ago.
3) Operation Kid Brother (1967)
Come October, we’re going to be reviewing every single James Bond film ever made here at the Shattered Lens. Until then, why not enjoy this trailer featuring Sean Connery’s kid brother Neil?
4) Lightning Bolt (1966)
Much like Operation Kid Brother, this appears to be another Italian attempt to make a Bond-style film. Apparently, Neil Connery is not featured in this one.
5) Avenging Angel (1985)
Awwww…this movie was released the year I was born. 🙂
And finally, let’s close things out with a film that’s become such a classic and is so influential that film snobs tend to forget that it’s essentially a very well-made grindhouse film…
6) Psycho (1960)
You missed “I Dismember Mama”! One of the truly worst exploitation films of all time. Failing to provide either blood or skin!

You’re right! How could I have forgotten that one? I haven’t seen the actual film but the trailer’s featured on the 1st of the 42nd Street Forever compilation DVDs. 🙂

Oh my, I have seen it. Someday I hope to contract alzheimer’s so I can erase the “strip tease” scene from my memory.
