Rating	Title \| Year	Quote	Author
45%	The Wasp Woman (Insect Woman) (The Bee Girl) (1959)	"The only good thing I can say about this movie is that it is only an hour long. If this is a cult classic, then I'm Pauline Kael."	Marc Slanger
——	Skinheads ()	"Clark gets all the details, even the hairstyles, wrong."	Marc Slanger
——	Psychic Killer (1991)	"It wouldn't be a bad little revenge fantasy except for one thing--we only know about the guy's predicament because we hear him tell it to the voodoo priest in the opening scene. We're not present for the setup."	Marc Slanger
92%	Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)	"a whale of a good time"	Andrew Williams
50%	Nekromantik (1987)	"NEKROMANTIK is first and foremost a blatant and childish (though successful) attempt to disgust the most jaded conceivable audience, and doesn't have many aspirations beyond this."	Mike Ward
30%	Modern Vampires (1998)	"an enjoyable spoof"	Matthew W. Beale
86%	Forbidden Zone (1982)	"has the feel and spirit of a 1930s cartoon, one that has been injected with an overdose perversity, not to mention insanity"	Matthew W. Beale
13%	Book of Shadows - Blair Witch 2 (2000)	"What distinguishes this project is its meditation on mass hysteria and popular delusion -- or at least its effort to do so."	Matthew W. Beale
——	Hei tai yang 731 (Men Behind the Sun) (Squadron 731) (1988)	"As a collector I'm glad I bought it and that I own it, but I don't know if I could sit through it again."	Marc Slanger
——	The Incredible Two-Headed Transplant (1971)	"If you've ever wanted to see Marylin Munster in a series of revealing outfits, including one made of soap suds, this is your movie."	Marc Slanger
——	Ilsa: Absolute Power (Greta - Haus ohne M�nner) (Greta the Torturer) (Ilsa, the Wicked Warden) (Greta, the Mad Butcher) (Greta, the Sadist) (1977)	"This is the last, and sadly the least, of the four films in Ilsa's quartet of perversion."	Marc Slanger
30%	Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS (1974)	"The story, dialogue, and acting are even worse than you would expect and the music leaves no impression at all. But that's not the point, is it?"	Marc Slanger
——	Ilsa - Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks (1976)	"Although it is not without its tasty moments, this one is nowhere near as gruesome as its predecessor."	Marc Slanger
——	Horror of the Blood Monsters (Creatures of the Red Planet) (1970)	"Carradine remarks that he has no doubt the earth will also one day bomb itself into oblivion. This bomb is a good start."	Marc Slanger
75%	Head (1968)	"Full of beautiful and disturbing images that seem to convey the band's disgust with its limitations while at the same time representing a creative peak in their songwriting and performances."	Andrew Williams
——	Hardcore Collection - The Films of Richard Kern (2000)	"How much of this is a commentary on porn and how much is just plain porn?"	Marc Slanger
——	Uninvited ()	"[Clark] is a scientist who lets his test subject, an orange cat, escape his lab. Yes, it's that premise again."	Marc Slanger
——	Caligula Reincarnated As Hitler/White Slave (2000)	"A monstrously depraved entry in the Ilsa-inspired "Nazi Atrocity" sub-genre. [Also known as THE GESTAPO'S LAST ORGY.]"	Marc Slanger
——	Five Bloody Graves (1970)	"Adamson had a gift of knowing how to photograph the even the most breathtaking of beautiful things in a such as a way to make them look cheap and bland."	Marc Slanger
73%	Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! (1965)	"[The] subtext of childhood trauma that makes Faster, Pussycat a subtler movie than you might expect."	Mike Ward
70%	The Driller Killer (1979)	"Any fool can make a movie that's just frankly obscene, but it takes an edge of intelligence to make a film that crosses the line into the unspeakably abominable. DRILLER KILLER is such a film."	Mike Ward
20%	The Devil's Rain (1975)	"Hiding Ernest Borgnine behind gargoyle prosthetics is as redundant as painting the kettle black, but it is entirely consistent with the filmmaker's overall vision of obliterating every possibly redeeming element."	Marc Slanger
——	The Dark (1979)	"Not another poverty-row cheapie, this film has the generic slickness of any mainstream middle-budgeted film of its time. It's the script that's impoverished."	Marc Slanger
——	The Curious Dr. Humpp (1967)	"Absolutely does not give a f*** about conventional film narration... spins a yarn with the deviant coherence of a paranoid fantasy or a death-bed vision."	Mike Ward
——	Il Boia scarlatto (Bloody Pit of Horror)(The Scarlet Hangman)(A Tale of Torture) (1965)	"Peguri did the soundtrack for this film, and I mention him by name so that you will know to beat him senseless if you happen to see him in the street."	Mike Ward
100%	Spider Baby, or The Maddest Story Ever Told (Attack of the Liver Eaters) (1968)	"SPIDER BABY is a Richard Gory drawing come to life--the perfect blend of comedy and horror, like THE ADDAMS FAMILY with a body count or ARSENIC AND OLD LACE with subhuman cannibals in the basement."	Marc Slanger
——	The Ambulance (1990)	"The whole cast works together like gears in a mesh, perfectly in synch... The dialogue crackles like a street drama from the 1930s."	Andrew Williams
——	Brain of Blood (The Undying Brain) (1972)	"With Zandor Vorkov's relatively early exit from the film, we say good-bye to one of the last reasons to keep watching."	Marc Slanger
——	Adult Version of Jekyll and Hyde ()	"yet another of those low-budget sexploitation films whose most interesting aspect is its accidents"	Mike Ward
