Same here, and I agree with your assessment.

IMO, if you're looking for a classic looking exploitation film, then you should go with Black Dynamite.
both are available on Nextflix watch instantly BTW

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Excellent throwback to the glory days of Troma. Also nice to see Rob Wells (Ricky from Trailer Park Boys) at the beginning.

Another film you might like is Super, starring Rainn Wilson (Dwight K Schrute of The Office) and written by former Troma filmmaker James Gunn (of Slither and Dawn of the Dead remake fame).

Agreed.  It has actually been turned into a cartoon on adult swim.  I caught the first episode.... a bit more focused on comedy now, but the plot did revolve around BD beating the crap out of a young Michael Jackson.

Cool thanks for the recommendations.  Yeh I accidently came across that clip on Youtube when I was checkin up on a few artists to see if they came out with anything new and then I found out that 2 of them were featured in that movie/scene (Power Glove & Lazerhawk ..they're just cheesy sounding 80s beats)  But yeh I love those B movies, especially the funny over the top gore.  I don't care for torture gore movies like Saw where people are getting their fingernails ripped off but i think the grutuitous violence/gore is hilarious.. 

...hmm

when it's typed out it in front of me it looks a little disturbing.  ..is something wrong with me..?

 :cheers:
