One of the schlock studio's intentionally bad movies that succeeds a little too well.

Rated: 1/4

I'd take it over many of the high-profile attempts at grindhouse horror and it's even more remarkable when one considers that the legendary company gave Astron-6 $10,000 to make it. I'm slightly terrified to think of what they could do with $10 million.

Rated: 3.5/5.0

Exquisite Terror

Has everything one could desire of a daft evening's entertainment, from sibling incest to a meeting with the Devil/God himself.

This is the kind of film we all expected to see inside all of those VHS boxes with the fabulous artwork.

A sick and twisted horror farce made for a very specific sort of movie geek. I'm one of them.

Father's Day proves that, when he's not making masterworks, (Troma's Lloyd Kaufman is) quite capable of finding fresh examples of same.

Rated: 4.5/5

Low budget that hits like a crack pipe. Astron-6 doesn’t miss. Please make Star Raiders! IFYKYK

A rape/revenge flick which maybe tries to be pointgent (or maybe just ironic) by making the victims to be males. The movie's protagonists are a convicted murderer, a priest, and a gay streetwalker who seek to kill a homosexual serial killer. The film is total trash and contains lots of gore, violence, and nudity. The music is pretty good and fits with the "homage to 80s exploitation" mood of the whole film. The storyline was too loopy, the humour didn't really land for me, and the Satanic coven-leading antagonist was much too gross for me. The final scene was the best, especially the twist with Lloyd Kaufman's character.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Man oh man... talk about bugnuts! Such a fun bit of insanity. It's an absurd throwback in the style of Grindhouse, that just has zero restraint. I was rolling with laughter throughout. This is going to get played several times for me, probably as a double bill with Hobo With a Shotgun. This is the best kind of depravity.

Easily the best movie to pop out of Troma Entertainment in quite some time.

This is dark, whimsical creativity and love for its predecessors at full tilt. Watch a couple hundred 70/80s sci-fi/cop/horror films so you can watch this one. Well worth it.
