The Astro-Zombies (1968)


































  Dr. DeMarco conducts his morbid experiments secretly while attempting to create humanoids put together from various body parts with the ultimate goal of controlling them using his electronic devises.  When one if his creations escapes, it sets off on a killing spree and draws the attention of the F.B.I, the C.I.A and other agencies. While everyone is trying to stop him, the mad doctor puts every effort in fulfilling his goal...
  Given the fact that Ted V. Mikels directed this one, it does not strike as a surprise to anyone who watches this film as to why this film is like that. Don't get me wrong, though. This film has every little aspect that guarantees a Z-rate cult film success and that is pretty much everything in small doses. Little bit of Science-Fiction,a little bit of Gore, a pinch of Spy/Mystery adventure and if you add to that a strong essence of Psychedelia then you get AstroZombies. Sadly, the film lacks a strong amount of any of its aforementioned elements to reciprocate for plotholes and a absurd storyline. But even so, AstroZombies does not get crappy enough to be labeled as "Must not watch this". You just need enough psychoactive substances, I guess...
  To be honest, that main thing that draw my attention to this flick (and I am guessing most people's out there) is the fact that Tura Satana has a role in it. Plus, the fact that it is one of the last films that Wendell Corey appears in. For those that don't know, Tura Satana played the iconic role in Faster! Pussycat! Kill! Kill! and Corey had a long career in both cinema and television. John Carradine (another well-respected actor with a long career) plays the mad scientist and it makes sense that the plot revolves around him too. Additional roles by Tom Pace and Joan Patrick. Thumbs up for the humanoid and the original poster artwork. They really had me there!
Must watch this : strictly for the thrill of it! I mean, come on, it has everything you need to fill a good 92 minutes. Enough action to not let you get bored, enough psychedelic dancing (?) and goodlooking ladies and enough fake science theories and gore. Just make sure there is enough cider in the fridge to go with the flick. Sour and sparkly as they are both.

The Party (1968)


































  A goofy Indian actor gets accidentally invited to a Hollywood producer's house party. Trying to play it cool and mingle, Mr. Bakshi just can't lets a night pass without getting into trouble and eventually ruins a very posh and expensive party!
  This was one of my favorite films while I was growing up. I was introduced to the genius of Peter Sellers by ym father and ever since then a year does not pass by without me devoting a special day for watching it and grooving with 60's vibes. Blake Edwards knows exactly what his job is and that can seem throughout the film ; escalating humorous scenes with perfectly planned pace, necessary musical breaks and well-studied on-spot sarcasm. Just the way a good fish-out-of-water comedy should be!
  To praise Sellers, my father always said that you can judge a comedian not by the way he speaks his lines but by his talent to make you laugh without saying one word. Check out his movements and everything and he will seem even funnier than before. Of course, the rest of the cast helps too. Drunk waiter Steven Franken, honey-bunny Claudine Longet and party host Herbert Ellis. If you don't end up saying "Birdy Num Num" all the time after the film, then you have not watched it properly!
Must watch this : with a ridiculously colorful cocktail in hand after you have relaxed with some sitar-jazz-experimental 60s rock. Someday, have your kid watch this and tell him what a comedian used to be!

Santo Attacks the Witches (1968) a.k.a Atacan Las Brujas


































  An evil witch and her young witch disciples have set up their own evil cult. They make plans of bringing demons and malicious spirits in the dimension of Earth. There is only man who can stop them and that is Santo...
  Santo's persona my have roughly appeared in more than 50 films. Ain't that something?! And for the better part of those 50 films, they are still so rare they are like pirate's gold. José Díaz Morales, a very notable Mexican director, directs this piece of art in which Santo deals with a cult of sexy witches and beats some hefty amount of ass. The amount of cult-ness in this film is way too much and many people may not stand it ; witchcraft, female cults and satanic rites, demons, wrestling, a masked avenger and insane dialogues. This one is only for those sic-cult in heart!
  Santo kept the mystery of his persona very well as he almost never appeared without his iconic silver lucha libre mask.At first it may seem idiotic to watch a masked man doing everyday chores and flirting with girls but if you bear in mind that it is what it is then you start to enjoy it. And since every macho man needs to be surrounded by foxy ladies, Lorena Velázquez and María Eugenia San Martín step in.
Must watch this : like a true Mexican hombre, roll up a nasty chimichanga, sit down and sip down some tequila. Try to avoid the worm!

Andrea, The Nympho (1968) a.k.a Andrea - Wie ein Blatt Auf Nackter Haut


































  Andrea is an everyday beautiful young girl who seems to be living a very ordinary life with her boyfriend. What's Difficult to tell about her is that she is driven by an unstoppable thirst for sexual contact. Reaching the limits of her appetite, Andrea will face her demons...
  It's one of these movies, yeah. The one that have absolutely no point in existing but there is something that simply draws you into spending 90 minutes for watching. Blame it on the lack of money, blame it on the faulty equipment? Blame it wherever you like, the point remains that Hans Schott-Schöbinger could not have done any better with what was given to him. Maybe under different circumstances, this film would be awesome.
  The film follows a classic plot that seemed to catch on in the late 60's and early 70's ; that of nymphomania. It actually sounds and must be an awesome thing to encounter if you are a man but talking about cinema and cult cinema, the subject was being exploited yearly by many directors. There's actually little left to show, from both the saucy side and the sad side, so I guess Andrea succeeds in that ; keeping nymphomania alive.
Must watch this : utterly drunk and shitfaced, high as a kite otherwise all the blurriness of the film won't make any sense!

The Blood of Fu Manchu (1968)


































  Fu Manchu has found a strange species of snake whose venom only affects. In his powerful master plan, he inoculates ten women with this venom in order to poison ten male leaders, bring chaos in the world and eventually preparing millions of doses for his world domination...
  Even on meager budget Jess Franco once again proves not only that he can make a film but also that he can make a good film without depending too much on nudity and drugs. Exploiting the persona of the notorious villain Fu Manchu, Franco creates a thrilling adventure with intense scenes, of course a minimum amount of nudity and epic pulp characters and dialogues. Another underground classic by a perverted mind...
  Much of the film's success (or call it whatever you want) depends and can be attributed to Christopher Lee. Even under shitty situation and sarcastic roles, Lee manages to sustain a classy character and dominate most of the space that he can take. And since it's a Franco film, presences like Maria Rohm, Loni von Friedl, Shirley Eaton and Tsai Chin could not be absent!
Must watch this :  with your stoner friends, a bowl half-full of the best Buddha Haze you can find and sugar-full soda drinks! Get high, get cranked and start growing Fu Manchu beards under the tunes of those fuzzy bastards.

Planet of the Apes (1968)


































  Three astronauts traveling through time and space crash land on what they think to be a new planet similar to the Earth. Soon, they realize that they are not the dominant species on this new found land and they have to face a race of apes with human intelligence who enslave and use the unintelligent humans as pets and lab rats...
  Franklin J. Schaffner puts his signature on one of the Sci-Fi's that changed the progress and history of the genre. Based on the novel by Pierre Boulle, Planet of the Apes may seem ultra exploitation and cheap at first glance but there is definitely more than meets the eye. Meddling with issues unknown for its times like human-animal codependency and relationships and of course the still not hot topic of protection the environment, this film manages to provide an intelligent Sci-Fi story with a ton of food for thought and over the top but still earthly special effects that will get you in the mood.
   Charlton Heston is simply enjoyable in his own unique way. Presenting a person fed up with humans and their miserable doings, Heston becomes a mature hero with a brain beyond his time, ready to take on new challenges in the universe. I personally see a fine allegory drawn as Heston being humanity on the verge of  change. Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter co-star but sadly not much can be said about their acting as they are in a suit.
Must watch this : with intelligent company and cold salad on a hot summer night. Take time to discuss the topics manifested on the film and feel like the highly intellectual being that you must. Wonder if we are indeed as intelligent as we think and cool off with that hairy mofo.

Once Upon a Time in the West (1968) a.k.a C'era Una Volta Il West


































  A piece of very profitable land is left to a former prostitute after her new husband gets killed. An evil railroad tycoon wants to get hold of that land as he intends to use it for his own profit. When he starts war on the widow, a mysterious stranger with a harmonica joins forces with a notorious desperado to protect her...
  Sergio Leone right after the end of his famous Mr.Nobody trilogy could not just sit around and bask in his new found glory. Instead he went on and directed yet another epic monument in the history of Spaghetti Western. Employing great settings and performers, equipping them with tons of heavy emotion, glorifying them with a fantastic Ennio Morricone soundtrack, Sergio Leone does his thing again!
  Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda need no introduction as they are well known sons of bitches. And they keep that title with honor in this film by giving excellent performances and tuning this film up a notch. Gabriele Ferzetti is equally stunning as the evil mastermind of the film while Claudia Cardinale is the trophy wife with a fortune in the middle. Jason Robards completes the starring cast as Cheyenne.
Must watch this : anytime anyplace. Watch this whenever you get the chance with a juicy steak and a glass of bourbon on the side. This is the kind of film that puts hair on your balls!

The Acid Eaters (1968)


































  A group of normal office workers spend their weekends doing the exact opposite of normal ; they have formed a biker gang and they go around killing people, getting drunk, having sex and getting high. Their main target in life is to find the notorious L.S.D pyramid, a 50-foot pyramid made of L.S.D blocks. Little do they know that is also the gateway to hell...
  I know that by reading the plot summary you said "What the fuck?". Don't worry, this is what you would be saying if you were watching the film too. Byron Mabe, known for his weird sexploitation films like that, directs this and he certainly went too far with it! Everything you need is here ; drugs, sex, violence, bikes, more sex and drugs, unexplainable vignettes and the occasional racism to complete the vibe!
  As usual with cash-in films like that, acting is not a big plus. But, as always, it is such a big minus that it becomes such an appealing attribute of the film. If the actors were hired by their skill to make out and look good while at it, then my hat goes off to them! Get your groove on, get your buzz on and get ready to laugh as you watch this!
Must watch this : definitely high or at least a bit drunk! Roll a joint (or two), get a glass of your poison of choice, call up your friends (preferably girls) and get swinging !

Dracula Has Risen from the Grave (1968)


































  Monsignor Ernest Mueller performs an exorcism ceremony on the door of Dracula's castle. Little does he know that Count Dracula has risen from the grave and now he wants to take his revenge. He tracks the Monsignor down and sets on making his niece the new Mrs. Dracula...
  Another fine addition to the film legend of Dracula. Directed by Freddie Francis and perfectly produced, this film might just be one of the best Dracula films out there. Deep emotion and goth atmosphere with just a little bit of these Italian style colors in the background that make all the difference. It's doom and gloom time...
  Who else other than Christopher Lee? This man is the legend himself and no one can walk like him in his big-balled shoes. Especially not when he is surrounded by such great actors like Rupert Davies as the Monsignor, Barry Andrews as Paul and Marion Mathie as the forbidden fruit of lust for Dracula. It is interesting to see such a powerful love story being developed side to side by the world's worst nightmare!
Must watch this : on a cold, windy and foggy January afternoon right at twilight with a cup of the best Earl Grey tea you can get your hands on. Let the wind and fog surround you and drown you in Dracula's mist...MuaHaHaHa

Night Of The Living Dead (1968), by Eat-UrBrains


































  Barbara is out in Pennsylvania with her brother for their annual visit to their father's grave. A weird man attacks them and all of a sudden, Barbara finds herself hiding in a farmhouse with other strangers in order to protect herself from the attacking zombies. It's feeding night and they ain't stopping!
  George A. Romero's full debut as a director definitely put him on the world map of high class directors. If the Italians hadn't been the ones to complete the concept, Romero would have been the father of zombies. Shot in grainy black-and-white, this film is a non-stop thrill ride with amazing characters struggling to stay alive while being attacked by hideous humanoids, all set peacefully in rural America.
  Judith O' Dead gives a hole other meaning to the term 'scream queen' and Duane Jones breaks all social taboos (being black and all) and proves to be quite the hero battling his way through flesh-eating zombies and nimrod hillbillies. All in all, this film boasts amazing performances and impressive effects and even more genuinity.
Must watch this : on a spooky, foggy Friday night with your friends and Monkey Brain shots. After the film, find the girl among your friends with knee-high striped socks and fuck her brains out.

Witchfinder General (1968) a.k.a The Conqueror Worm


































  17th century. England is divided in two by the civil war. Matthew Hopkins, the notorious witch hunter, takes the chance to satisfy his own sadistic intents and make a good profit of it. Entering a village to practice his usual tricks, he finds opposition by a soldier ready to put an end to his reign...
  If Michael Reeves had lived longer we would have many more notable cult movies like this. R.I.P, though, as he exceeded all expectations with this film here! Excellent cinematography and  sets (after all it is a British production), impressive acting and a story based on the real witch hunter! The film may come shocking to some people for its scenes of excessive violence and the overall belief in the film that human life has no actual value. Wait, is this film talking about the 17th century or the 21st?
  Vincent Price is Matthew Hopkins as only he must have been the only actor ballsy enough to take up such a role. Pure evil and malevolence all mixed up in a weird dedication to Christian beliefs? Vincent Price has just the thing for it! Ian Ogilvy does an equally god job as his arch enemy who sees through his thick layer of lies and religious deception!
Must watch this : with a cup of Earl Grey tea, buttered scones and cake on a rainy March afternoon. After the film contemplate society's march through the ages and how pathetically it is heading to a violent social dead end.

Brand Of Shame (1968)


































  A school teacher arrives at a dusty old town with a map to a gold mine. She suddenly becomes the center of the city's attention and the lesbian dance-hall owner has an evil scheme to steal the map for herself...
  This film's alternate name is Nude Django! I bet that means a lot! Directed by trashy director Byron Mabe, this film takes another look in the western theme, the nude and sexy one. Not lacking in original set and costumes, Brand of Shame can easily fool you for a cheap western, until the fist boob appears that is.
  Come on, you are not here to see someone acting but to watch someone say a shitload of cheese pickup lines,  even cheesier1800's  lesbian sex and to have a laugh. Luckily, this film is a great laugh, Just open your mind and chill ; this is actual adult entertainment.
Must watch this : on a lazy summer afternoon, when you are too bored to watch a serious film and too bored to go out. Get a margarita and enjoy this. After the film, do yourself a  favor and go out! It's summer, god damn it!

She-Devils on Wheels (1968)


































  An all-female biker gang gets busy creating chaos and anarchy in their territory and organizing regular races. The winner of the race gets to pick first from their male harem! When an all-made gang starts to threat their territory, they just have to answer with force!
  Super cheesy grindhouse film! Herschell Gordon Lewis is one notorious motherfucker,known for his super low-budget films with ultra cheap effects. This one isn't much of a difference, all packed with actors who try very hard to be convincing and a story that is not actually a story. Macho women, bikes, sexual depravity, gangs and the beloved America of the 70's. You just can't but love the decadence in that stuff!
  It is definitely not a classic Lewis film concerning the gore, but it is Lewis in any other aspect. There are actually two actors here and the rest is actually gang members so not much to say on acting. It can't get any more realistic than that. Cool poster too!
Must watch this : on your lowest of days to remind you that stuff can get worse at any time. It will actually cheer you up with its efforts and all. After the film, ride your bike (or bicycle) and go around ringing doorbells in your neighborhood. Thug Life!
