80's Trash from the Future
In this thread I'm going to be reviewing low budget horror/sci-fi films mainly from the 1980's. It seems like only yesterday that I was down the video shop mesmerized by those gaudy big box rental tapes, only to be disappointed by the inevitably crappy movies they contained. Still, with that said I have a huge fondness for the genre, some of them remaining favourites to this day. Please also note that I'm not reviewing these films from distorted teenage memory. All the titles reviewed here I either own on dvd/vhs or have seen in the last five years. I will also try and watch them again before each review.
* There is a two tier rating system in place for the films, the first is an objective rating, for serious film fans. Additionally there is my self indulgent trash entertainment rating, based on cult cheese appeal and all round lowbrow cool.
