As uncomfortable as the title makes us, we decided to take care of some business on this show. We thought we'd pop Sam's cherry. Now... all of you sick-minded bastards can relax, we're using that to describe the fact that we want to break Sam out of his "noob" status. We chose three films to talk about this week, all of which have some kind of significance in the horror genre as a whole and some would say that one can't be a true horror fan until one has seen these. So for those who wanted to try to catch us pressure washing the aluminum trombone, I am sorry!Although we could have added so many great titles to this list, this week we're going to discuss Nosferatu 1922, City of the Living Dead 1980, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1974.
Nosferatu 1922 - One of the first horror movies ever made, Nosferatu A Symphony of Horror uses skilled acting and great atmosphere to portray the message that is typically illustrated through speech. Here's a taste:
City of the Living Dead 1980 - Written and directed by Lucio Fulci, you know that this is going to be one gory ride. Having the award of being the only film that actually made Mike barf, this film delivers on the violence and gore. Here's a trailer:
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1974 - Tobe Hooper's gritty masterpiece. We are treated to the most psychotic family in existence (except for maybe the family in Mum and Dad). One of Mike's all-time favorite movies, this is a dirty, nasty, ugly, film.
