In the words of THE CRAMPS: 'People ain't no good'. People PISS me off!!! LOL.

Last of the zombies... the trailers

While we wait here's a couple of trailers for Mattei's last zombie flicks. Unfortunately, I can only embed the first one but if you click those links apart from the trailers there's also scans and film details as well + a press-book.

ZOMBIES THE BEGINNING



ZOMBIES THE BEGINNING (same trailer but better picture quality and there's info on the page about the film)

ISLAND OF THE LIVING DEAD
(On this page there's also a press-book you can download. It's nothing special but still).

And for ol'e times sake; ZOMBI 3

Last of the zombies...

...well, Mattei's zombies that is. It's not like we've seen the last zombie movie ever, eh. Anyway, Per Svensson, a member over at Dvdmaniacs, uploaded some screen grabs from Mattei's last two zombie movies; ZOMBIES: THE BEGINNING and ISLAND OF THE LIVING DEAD which so far only have been released on DVD in The Czech Republic. According to mr. Svensson BEGINNING is actually... the sequel! Yep, sounds like true Mattei logic, LOL. Here are some of the scans.

Anyway, until we (or at least I) get hold of these babies here's a cool trailer from Mattei's totally entertaining PREDATOR ripoff ROBOWAR:

No news hey hey

That headline sounds like a fucking song, LOL. "Nooo news todayyy, my love went awayyy, heyyy heyyy, what'ya sayyyy, hey hey" Oh well, maybe not!! Anyway, no news what so ever and I loathe and dispise smalltalk so I'll be back when I've actually got something to tell ya. Nothing's going on in Cyberspace anyway (except Fred having fun with his spoons, LOL).

The Mistreated

I love 50s horror & sci-fi movies and I just discovered this totally cool (fake) trailer on Jocke Andersson's Gummimonsterfetischism blog. Check it out:



PS: it's actually a TV spot to get Swedes to recycle their used batteries. Of course, in Denmark we just chuck them in the lake.

Et pladekøb for længe siden

Jeg sad lige her i dag og surfede inde på YouTube efter noget helt andet musik, men så helt tilfældigt faldt jeg over en liveoptagelse med Sort Sol. "Hmm, en gammel optagelse, selvklart", tænkte jeg først, "gruppen holdt jo op med at spille for snart længe siden"... og så pludselig går det op for mig, at optagelsen kraftedeme er fra oktober måned... fra i år!! Altså for en måned siden! Og takket være min nu lynhurtige Internetopkobling kan jeg nu (ligesom alle andre mennesker har kunnet de sidste 10 år eller deromkring) se YouTubevideoer med det samme uden først at skulle downloade dem i 20 minutter. Jeg spillede straks den nye optagelse og må straks indrømme, at de lyder bedre end de har gjort MEGET længe. Det ene nummer YouTube-medlemmet havde lagt ud var en coverversion af Gasolin's gamle "Langebro" og som sagt det lød mere råt og ufortrødent end det har gjort rigtig, rigtig længe. Og så var det jeg kom til at tænke på en dag i '83, hvor jeg sku' i skole, men i stedet pjækkede og tog ind og købte Sort Sols (eller Sods som de naturligvis stadig hed dengang, osse selvom der stod Sort Sol på pladen) "Dager & Guitar" LP. Min første Sods plade. 1983-2008; det er fanderme 25 år!!! Femogfuckingtyve år med Sods/Sort Sol!! Det er sgu længe (og året efter, altså '84, fik jeg optaget dokumentarprogrammet "Omkring en sort sol - et portræt af Sods" fra DR TV med min første videomaskine. En Betamax, og jeg har sgu stadig båndet!). Da jeg købte den den efterfølgende LP "Everything that rises... must converge" (som først kom i '87), var jeg overbevist om, at det var den bedste danske plade, der nogensinde var udgivet. Jeg må nok indrømme, at dét mener jeg sgu stadigvæk! Fanderme så! Men du vil høre om det så holdt nu, det ene nummer fra den ene optagelse, ikke sandt? Gu fanden holder det så! Jeg må ha' genspillet den 15 gange i rap! Haha.
Hva' fanden var det lige med Sort Sol dengang i gamle dage? Well, udover muzakken naturligvis, var der det med kompromisløsheden! De sked bare på,hva' der var populært og in. Og musikken var fuldstændig voldelig, ikke fuldstændig overgearet som heavy metal, men i selve UDTRYKKET og ikke mindst teksterne. De sang bare Pinocchio, der var ond og blod, der flød ned at halsen, og alt muligt. Jeg husker at være til den skide Afrika-koncert i '85 og bare hade alle de danske lortebands. Nanna, News, Søs Fænger, Rungsted & Kreutzfeldt, og hvad fanden alle de selvfede, vamle mainstream grupper hed. Jeg husker stadig Sort Sol gå på scenen midt i al rygklapperiet og de danske kunstnere, der ikke ku' slikke hinanden nok i røven, og bare fyre den af med en cover af Suicides gamle "Ghostrider", bedre end Suicide nogensinde selv har spillet den.
Og i oktober spillede de altså så "Langebro". Okay, det er ikke det samme. Der mangler ligesom tre af de oprindelige medlemmer, men hold da kæft det holdt alligevel. Femogtyve år. Hmm, det er måske bedst ikke at tænke på, hvornår jeg hørte originalversionen af "Langebro" for første gang! Det har været i første eller anden klasse. Det kan godt være, at Sort Sol ikke spiller punkmusik mere, og det kan også godt være de ikke er undergrund mere, og nej det er ikke den oprindelige gruppe mere, men jeg er villig til at overse de dersens uheldige detaljer. "Everything that rises..." er stadig den bedste danske plade nogensinde og "Langebro" lød helt A-okay. Hvorfor tar du ikke bare og checker optagelsen ud! Om du så er enig med mig eller ej, er sådan set ligegyldigt.

Og her er den så (jeg ville ha klippet de 20 sek. snak i starten væk, men det kan man vist ikke med den gratisudgave af Realplayer, jeg har!).

Gettin' the shakes

I've been off-line for three days because my Internet provider decided to close shop and run off to some sunny island with all the dough (well, actually they were Tele2 and they cancelled their business here and went back to Sweden, LOL). What a bummer. Three days without Internet and you get the shakes (lol).

More evil Mexicans

Ahh, yesterday I finally received more old Mexican horror moves!! This times a handful of original US NTSC tapes even, no bootlegs. The handful of 60s movies I got were all horror (or "terror" films as they're called south of the border - obviously not "south of the border" where I'm at cos that would leave you in Flensburg, Germany, LOL) and they were: DR SATAN (1966), DR SATAN VS BLACK MAGIC (Dr Satan y la Magia Negra, 1968), THE BLOODY VAMPIRE (El Vampiro sangriento, 1962, actually this one is probably a vhs boot. Oh well!) and ISLAND OF THE DINOSAURS (La Isla de los dinosaurios, 1967). Only THE BLOODY VAMPIRE is in English. Aye Caramba!!

Mystics in Bali + 30 minutes!!!

No, wait! Come back!!
I just know you're on your way out the door! You're going "FFS, that guy is shitting me! Again!!" But no, really... I'm not! Someone over at Cinehound has... REALLY... found a version of MYSTICS IN BALI that runs about thirty minutes longer than the Mondo Macabro DVD!!!!!!!!!

Someone (in India I think) uploaded it to YouTube and tonight I watched the first ten minutes of it and... sure enough... it's got tons of stuff not in the DVD version!! For instance we get to see how the American girl meets her Indonesian boyfriend-to-come! Apparently this version was released on VCD in Malaysia but never dubbed into English. Very exiting!!
MORE INFO LATER!!!

Check the Cinehound thread about it here!

Killer Snakes VHS

[Click scan for bigger size]

No, I'm not gonna review KILLER SNAKES or anything I just thought I'd show you the old Something Weird VHS cover for this dark and nasty Hong Kong horror flick because I think it's pretty cool! Nowadays you don't need to track down a copy of this rare video tape as there's a great looking HK DVD, fully letterboxed, in Mandarin and uncut (well, apart from some reel-end frames missing. Reportedly) and there's also a US DVD (apparently the latter isn't looking as good as the HK one!). However (again; reportedly) the Something Weird Video tape contains the reel-end frames that are missing from the DVDs.
