SHRIEK OF THE MUTILATED / It Walks. It Stalks. It Tears The Shriek Out Of Your Throat. - 1974

In today's fright/laugh fest, a group of college students led by their professor, go to Boot Island in New York and search for the Yeti. And wouldn't you know it, the students start to die off off, one by one. The ending's a dilly! Poster's decent.

Most of the actors only have this as their acting credit, a few of the girls had like three credits. Seems like a buncha bored, kinds actors in NY decided to make this 'what in the Hell's wrong with us' movie! The Yeti suit is hilarious, when it runs you can see the sewn on foot pads!!

Finally at their destination, the kids are having the times of their lives at the local club there, at Boot Lake. I mean, just looks at fun they're having as the jukebox plays some tunes.

Then, this drunken, belligerent jerk face, Spencer, shows up, he starts talking real loud about how he and his professor were the only survivors of a Yeti attack a year earlier, or whatever. He acts like a doofus as he tells his tale of horror, an especially bad acting job for the books... I just want him to die! And, I want to slap (hard!) each and every one of those people, including the girls, who are entertaining his moronic ramblings...

Hey, I get my wish!!.. So, Spencer and his wife leave the club and go home. He keeps drinking and ends up killing his wife with a knife, almost. Spencer jumps in the tub to relax. But, his wife, not quite dead yet, drags a toaster from the kitchen, plugs it in and pushes it into the damn water! Yay!..! High five!!

Okay, now it's time to go to the home of their teacher's friend, Dr. Werner, to start looking for the Yeti that has been spotted in the area.

The men and the kids come up with a battle plan based on a map drawn by a fifth grader.

This student, what's his name, decides to hunt for deer because of the crap food being served at Dr. Werner's place. And, he becomes victim number one...

Dr. Prell is next, he tells his tale of woe after being attacked by the creature. Then he guzzles down half a bottle of whiskey.

Guess who!.. This little dead girl gets tied to a tree to attract the Yeti for capture!

Hmmm, I wonder if there's something behind this shower curtain... Or not.

Karen is freaking out, she opens a cabinet door to find Dr. Werner's cook, Laughing Crow, apparently dead there. He suddenly gets out of his hiding place and pursues her through the house with a big butcher knife!

Then, the fakey looking Yeti shows up and gets Karen in its clutches. The mask comes off and it's none other than Dr. Werner in drag. The whole thing has been a charade by Werner and Prell all along. It's just a cover for their real activity...

The last survivor, Keith, has escaped and located a cop who goes back to Werner's house with him. There's a gathering of a number of people attending a special breakfast where Karen's being served as the main course. And, the cop is in on it too, they're all a bunch of cannibals!!

Keith tries to escape but the guests attack him with their forks! After the forking, he's taken to the table where he gets a slice of Karen.

Dude, white meat or dark meat?!.. What's really stupid is that they didn't even cook her, WTF!! There you go, whatta lame ride. Join us again on Wednesday for yet another installment of weirdness, here at The Dungeon!!..

CLOWNVIS PRESLEY - "Trafficula" (2019)

You know, when the stars align just wrong like now, and everything still comes out right somehow, then it must be time for another Saturday Night Special in The Dungeon.

 Tonight's short feature is a music video from The King of Clowns, Clownvis Presley

 If it was just Clownvis, I might not have even paid attention, but Clownvis combined with Trafficula, and you've piqued my curiosity!

 Following the crumbs of my old pal Zilligord, aka El Gordo,
is what lead me to be in this situation.


Check it out for yourself!
And if that's not enough for you, there are also Clownvis videos titled "Barack O's Tacos," and a real fave, "The Cursive Song" that you can also find on his website!

In the video, Clownvis is out cruising with his posse when they spot Trafficula!

It's only a two minute and thirty second video, so Trafficula needs to get his dirty work done in a hurry!

Stuck in traffic on Highway 40 makes Clownvis and his ladies easy prey!

 
One by one, they all become infected!

It's difficult to practice social distancing in a convertible, and the bite of a vampire is just like a contagious virus, so the outcome is to be expected!

Cause I know you're going to want to contact him directly before he gets too big, here's the entrance to the world of Clownvis!
Ya'll can thank me later!

JACK THE RIPPER / Close Your Eyes And Whisper His Name,, - 1976

One good Klaus deserves a bad one. Welcome to our Friday Flip-Out Feature, Klaus plays a serial killer whose mother was a prostitute, and he starts killing streetwalkers as a way of paying her back for her abuse... Not exactly a Jack The Ripper story, his name isn't even Jack, it's Dennis! Only tie-in is the street girls, he also likes women who perform at cheap bars.

You gotta love Klaus Kinski, a real original. The one day I worked as an extra on the set of TIMESTALKERS, Klause took a wild ride on an ATV and drove through the lunch area, real fast, while we were eating. The weird smile on his face was priceless, I couldn't tell if he was acting or not... Tell you one thing, the dude could ride a horse! Man, he died at age 65.

Well, well, well, who could this be hiding in the shadows at night, stalking women?..

There's the victim, wrapped and ready to be dumped into the stream. But wait a minute, why is there a big old lady tossing the body out of the boat? Oh great, now we gots two mysteries!!

Here's a good portrait of Dr. Dennis Orloff... See, it's a freakin' Orloff flick!

An interesting character is this old blind man who tells the Inspector that he can help the case with some details, as he was witness to the murder. He says that by being blind, his senses are heightened and he can give unique qualities of the person.

In the meantime, Orloff's having a fever dream about Cynthia, a ballet dancer, and girlfriend of the Inspector. She's telling him to come and get her, she's just like his mother, a whore...

My favorite part is when his landlady lets him know that she wants to be his girlfriend... She pours a cup of tea and offers it to him. After a few very weird expressions on his face, Orloff knocks the tea cup out of her hand (you gotta see it, wow) and it flies out of the scene, He gets up immediately and tells her something like... Screw you and your doddamn tea parties!! Needless to say, it horrifies the woman. She starts crying and goes over to the window, with her back turned. He reaches into his bag and pulls out a knife, he walks toward her, but, at the last second decides to go out to find his next victim. Klaus looks sooo strange in this one!

Shame on you prop department! A fisherman snags this mannequin hand (with a painted on light brown patina) and goes to the police... And, they take it as evidence!!!

So, the police bring in a sketch artist to try and figure out what the killer looks like, by interviewing witnesses to the murders. The sketch definitely looks like Orloff, drawn in a modern art style!

No kidding, watching the movie, next scene starts, there's a closed curtain on screen... It quickly opens and we're treated to this fine... Her pose in the bottom still sez it all. Then I thought, hmmm, the audience is a mile away, there's no way they're seeing what we're seeing!!

Orloff captures Cynthia and is torn as to what he wants to do with her. Before he can harm her though, the Inspector and the police show up.

Yeah, his helper's there to the stinking end...

The Inspector tells Orloff to come down from his perch and give up, he's surrounded. After one cop fires a bullet near him, he surrenders with no problems. This one has too many standard story lines to get excited about, it's just a weird one! Tune in tomorrow for more fun, here at The Dungeon!!..
