Say what you will about this trailer and the idea of having a concert on an airplane, Slade Craven is a great name.
2) Harrad Summer (1974)
This film is a sequel to the Harrad Experiment, which I reviewed earlier this year. From what I can gather, this film is about the values of the future challenging the values of today…
3) Parasite (1982)
Speaking of the values of the future…
4) Score (1974)
“Amyl Nitrate? What’s this?” For some reason, that line made me laugh.
5) Screamtime (1983)
This trailer is actually scared me a little. It was the puppet.
6) In Love (1983)
In Love was apparently an attempt to make a “real film” that just happened to feature hardcore sex scenes. For that reason, the trailer’s been edited but you can probably guess what’s going on behind those “Scene Missing” cards. I just like the trailer because of the theme song.
Currently, my sister, the Dazzling Erin, and I are relaxing down at Lake Texoma. However, if you’ve been reading this site for a while, you know that I would never let a little thing like a vacation keep me from offering up another edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film Trailers!
Before I left for the lake, I sent out the Trailer Kitties and here’s what they brought back!
1) The Terminators (2009)
This film is from our friends at the Asylum so you know it has to be good!
In many ways, I wish I had been born several decades earlier. I would have loved to have been a teenager during the early to mid-60s. From what I can tell from the films made during that period, people use to break out into dance at the slightest provocation.
I was saddened to learn of the passing of Jess Franco. Franco directed at least 199 films and, while he was never a favorite of the critics, he was a favorite for those of us who appreciated his unique aesthetic and improvisational style of filmmaking. Franco made a few good films and a lot of a bad films but even his worse films were usually more interesting than the usual films churned out by more “respectable” filmmakers. In a time when every director is claiming to be an independent artist, Franco truly was.
