Revenge Of The Living Dead Girls. Pointless gore and violence all for no apparent reason.  They have a point where a woman has a miscarriage in the shower from a rotting hole in her stomach.  Its probably one of the most tasteless things I've ever seen in a movie.  Forbid I mention the prostitute who gets sexually assaulted with a knife. 

Sounds like Shatter Dead took a lot from Revenge of the Living Dead Girls. There's a zombie plague that turns anyone who dies into an immortal unliving person, and on scene features a pregnant woman who gets a shotgun blast to her stomach, then after she turns immortal she walks into a shower and pulls out her zombie fetus. Later on there's also a scene where a zombie guy (who can't get it up because his blood no longer flows), ties a gun around his waist and uses it as an artificial penis to have sex with his still living girlfriend.

As such, I'd definitely like to nominate Shatter Dead as tasteless. I'm also surprised that nobody's mentioned the Nekromantik flicks. If you've seen 'em you know why. If you haven't seen 'em, well, if you have any semblance of good taste or are offended by people licking and fornicating with a cadaver, you're better off.

I've heard of the psychobilly band called the Nekromantix, named after the film. Psychobilly bands tend to name themselves after and perform music about these fine examples of wonderful cinema. Where can I find it?

The original's gonna take some looking for, as it's long out of print in the US. But, if you're on NetFlix you should be able to get a copy of Nekromantik 2 through them.

In regards to the original Nekromantik... I know that XploitedCinema.com used to carry a couple different D.V.D. version of it (some, admittedly, from Region 2). That's where I got my "Special European Edition."

Ah, crap.

Literally, just seconds ago, I ordered the D.V.D. of this despite the fact that I really can't afford to. Not only that, but I ordered a couple other crap movies that I really wanted but I definitely should not be buying right now.

I am an idiot.

Shut up and enjoy. It's worth it. Even if you end up houseless, don't live in regret. Instead wear the fact that you wallowed in cinematic filth with pride.

"Nekromantik" is gross and vaguely uncomfortable to watch, but I thought the climax (pun intended) of the second was  far more shocking and disturbing. 

Those two were the biggest renting movies in the video store I managed until some lady ripped loose five shrinkwraps and a sticker so she could complain about the cover of the sequel.  My boss told me to get rid of all the gross stuff and anime that I had ordered in and he didn't care how.  I took all of it home.  Thanks!  Then he complained he noticed a drop in profits.  Well, yeah. Cheap videos that stayed rented every single night for the month or so we had them out.  Every one of them turned a profit of about ten times their cost.  Just goes to prove people do love their tasteless treats.

Sorry.  Had to get that off my chest.

If I could find those, I'd feel pretty cool. The trouble is, I avoid watching films out of continuity like the plague. Any suggestions?

I recently saw Shatter Dead and didn't find that bad. Then I watched Bloodsucking Freaks and almost vomited twice during it. That film is seriously messed up. I recently purchased Cannibal Holocaust, but lost it before I could watch it. I think it was stolen. Damnit.

Anibus, whats your avatar?

It the Warden ala Pt.1 of the SuperJail season finale that airs tonight. I watched it on adultswim.com Friday night and took a screen grab. The more I look at it the more it looks like something from an old Ralph Bakshi flick...

I thought thats what it was.

I really dig the animation in that show, but did you ever have one of those deals where you see something that you would normaly really like but instead you DISlike it because it reminds you of someone? Thats my deal with Superjail.

Gator Bait has a fairly innocent young woman penetrated by a shotgun that is then discharged.  Not bloody really, but it just makes you feel bad for Mankind that someone would think of such a thing.  But then, I DID watch it, so what does that say about me?

Dunno when Gator Bait was made, but someone actually DID that once.  It was some evilass convict (can't recall his name off-hand).  I spoke about him briefly in this speech I did back in seventh grade on the death penalty.  This guy raped this girl, then jam a shotgun into her, fired, and, after watching her suffer for several minutes, finally finished the poor girl off.  Guy was up for the death penalty, but, due to a legal technicality, he got life in prison.

Six months later he stabbed another inmate to death with a sharpened prison spoon.

(BTW if you're wondering, the speech was pro death penalty.)
