ZOMBI 3 - Lucio Fulci (1988)

Tonight I got zombies for you, lots and lots of zombies!! Not one, not two, but three! Zombies can be a real pain in the ass, and that's what this Lucio Fulci flick is all about! It was released in Denmark as "Zombie: Hell On Earth!" "Zombi 3" was shot in Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines," so for those of you who don't speak Spanish, that translates into "The Bathrooms!" There's also a Los Baños in central California, it's not really that far from Manteca (Lard)!

This one goes out to Dr. T., let's all hope he's doing all right!

So let's just get this straight! "Zombi 3" is actually Fulci's second zombie movie because his first zombie movie retitled "Zombie" was originally titled "Zombi 2" even though there was never a "Zombi 1."

It's a story about science versus the military, but there's always a woman in the middle!

Not really, this is actually a movie about zombies, lots of zombies.......

.......blood-thirsty, flesh-eating zombies!

And even more zombies! Freakin' zombies everywhere!!

And when you've had enough zombies, just go on ahead and scream!!

Because there's more zombies right around the corner!

The bastards are everywhere!

A very good way to  rid yourself of a zombie is to turn it into a flaming fajita!

Or you could try this method if you want to have a little more hands on approach, cause everybody knows, there's more than one way to skewer and grill a zombie!

Zombies are everywhere, so don't go this way!

This reminds me of a Disney cartoon that's way far out of place!

You might end up staying longer than you expected!

There's just no escaping these zombie sons of bitches! They are literally everywhere!

They even have gnarly zombie feet!, and as you will find out in the end, it's possible for these zombies to even talk!

At this point you just have two choices, give in to the zombies, or.....

 .......................Set 'em all on fire and send their dead asses back to Hell where they belong!

They call it the art of incineration!
Speaking of art, if you want to really know about what was happening in the 80's, then go check out Lord Litter's Radio On Show! It's a real zombie burner!

WILD 'N' WEIRD HORROR POSTERS And ADS

Here are some eye catching posters and ads I got off some extras on a Something Weird DVD, so, sit back and enjoy all the craziness...

We'll start with THE HOUSE ON BARE MOUNTAIN, man, you can't go wrong with mixing nude chicks with monsters! The freakin' Werewolf, played by William Engesser, is 7 feet 3 inches tall.

Here's one I've never heard of, but, THE PEEPING PHANTOM goes to court to explain why he likes to watch the chorus girls undress... What the Hell is there to explain?!

THE ICE HOUSE is about a serial killer who works at an ice house (duh!) and murders women, then, brings their bodies back there to store! Love the poster.

Here's a wild Japanese flick, THE LOVE ROBOTS, where, in the bizarre world of distorted human pleasures, the most heinous crimes against mankind are accepted. Love Robots are beautiful young girls who are abducted right off the street and turned into monsters!

SEXUAL SENSORY PERCEPTION came out in 1975, not much info on this one, but, it obviously shatters the sexual time barrier!!

1960's AUNTIE'S SECRET SOCIETY is a science fiction flick that there's virtually no info on!

Great double bill poster of THE HEADLESS EYES and THE GHASTLY ONES. Headless Eyes is about an artist artist who gets an eye gouged out while committing a robbery. Then, he goes on a killing spree and cuts out women's eyes with a spoon. In Ghastly Ones, three married couples are forced to spend the night in an old house where they start getting killed off by a deranged psycho, from Andy Milligan!

Here's another cheapo Andy Milligan flick. THE RATS ARE COMING! THE WEREWOLVES ARE HERE! ia about the daughter in a family of werewolves who decides to put an end to the family curse. Love the poster though.

THE MAN WITH TWO HEADS is my favorite poster in this post, wow, eye-popping shit... And, guess what? This is yet another stink bomb from Andy Milligan! Basically, just another take off on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Looks like a press book double bill poster for THE VAMPIRE-BEAST CRAVES BLOOD aka THE BLOOD BEAST TERROR with Peter Cushing and CURSE OF THE BLOOD-GHOULS.

Here's great ad for HORROR HOTEL, a dark and depressing movie starring Chris Lee.

Love this Mexican double bill from THE CURSE OF THE DOLL PEOPLE and THE VAMPIRE. Of course, these are the English dubbed versions for American audiences.

Two more American releases for THE VAMPIRE'S COFFIN and THE ROBOT vs. THE AZTEC MUMMY (one of my favorites) in Hypnoscope even!!

Here's a triple bill for two Jerry Warren mutilations, plus the very silly British flick, MY SON, THE VAMPIRE from 1952 with Bela Lugosi... What a big pile of crap!!

I'll end with two classic lobby cards, first, here's Bab's reaction to seeing Gary as the monster in THE HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND. Looks like her lipstick is a little smeared!

Then, here's a WTF! card from BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS and TORTURE DUNGEON! You try and figure out what's going on in the still, super weirdsville! So, there you go, another post bites the dust. Hey, did you know that this is Dungeon Post #2491?! Man, that's a lot of fortitude!

DEF-CON 4 - " OMG, The Battle For The Future Of The World Has Begun" (1985)

 DEF-CON, DEF JAM, or DEF Fluid? You tell me what's relevant and what's not! 

 I knew nothing about the movie "DEFCON - 4" until just a few hours ago, and after I finish writing this, I probably won't remember most of it! So I don't know where to put the dash, the poster has it as "Def-Con 4"and the title card has it "Defcon-4", so I think I'm just going to go with "Condição De Defesa!" That simplifies things a lot!

 

 This is the kind of movie that makes you think, just what in the Hell were they thinking anyway? 

The clock is ticking!

From the title, I  thought "DEF-CON 4" was a 1985 space opera, and it does start out that way, but in no time at all after the nuclear bomb toting vessel comes down after a series of nuclear bombs have gone off, it turns into a tale of nuclear holocaustic society governed by a 1980's pretty boy punk, and a bunch of dolts! 

The Captain on the right who because of his hair and rank, you assumed was the hero, gets killed off in the first 15 minutes or so!

Finding good transportation at the end of the world is going to be difficult!

Now this is a great looking shot, but is it worth two million is the question?

1985 film formula, lots of juxtaposition between gross and incredibly stupid! This scene truly stinks!

This is the leader of the new world! The casting director should have been castigated because this film just might be the biggest waste of almost two million Canadian dollars ever! 

Public hangings are always a nice touch!!

 The Supreme Being Boss Boy has a cool 1985 cassette player, and as cool as he ain't, I'm sure he's listening to a C-60 by Lord Litter, or Don Campau, or any number of other amazing 80's indie talents!

Kind of pretty in an odd sort of way!

No Shit! Everything has been blown to smithereens! Don't you feel a whole lot better now? Let's just hope these clowns got it wrong!
