Well, here it is October 1st and you know what that means. It’s time for horror, horror, and more horror. This edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Trailers is dedicated to just that. So, without further ado, let’s jump into the world of ghosts, zombies, maniacs, and Paul Naschy…
Though this appears to be a fairly standard old school Jamie Lee Curtis slasher film, I like this trailer a lot. The opening shots of the train are nicely ominous, the shots of winter are perfectly matched with the trailer’s grim atmosphere, and it’s interesting to see Ben Johnson in one of these films.
I love this trailer solely for that final shot with the birthday cake.
3) The House Where Evil Dwells (1982)
Despite the odd looking crab-thing that shows up about halfway through, this is a creepy little trailer.
4) The Hunchback of the Morgue (1973)
Can you believe it took me over 60 entries before I finally included a Paul Naschy film? Better late than never…
This film was directed by Bill Hinzman, best known as the graveyard zombie from Night of the Living Dead.
Agck! Snake people!
