The Podcast Under the Stairs presents our next instalment of The 88 Films Italian Collection Series.
Welcome to the next instalment of our sub-set of show exclusively looking at the Italian Collection releases of 88 Films.
88 Films have, for the last 2 years or so, have been on a tear releasing a torrent of Italian genre classics in high definition. I have been purchasing them and it should be no surprise to anyone, I have left them pretty much unwatched (what can I say…I’m a compulsive collector).
In order to watch the movies I buy, and of course create some quality content for you all Under the Stairs, I will be running through each of the movies on this bonus series between 1-2 movies a month depending on the TPUTS schedule.
So strap yourself in for a rollercoaster ride of alleged plagiarism, zombies, gore, rape, genital mutilation, sexism, revenge, gialli, cops and robbers, cannibalism, sci fi & more bush and titties than an annual subscription to Penthouse magazine.
Disc 5 in the 88 Films Italian Collection is a the weird fusion/hybrid of two genres which were on top of the Italian exploitation genre world in 1980…what could possibly go wrong with Zombies and Cannibals sharing the same screen?? Nothing in my book as we look at the totally bonkers Zombi Holocaust (1980) directed by Marino Girolami.
The grading follows the Netflix rating style of 1 = Hated It, 2 = Didn’t Like It, 3 = Liked It, 4 = Really Liked It & 5 = Loved It
Zombi Holocaust:
Duncan: 4
Up next on the Italian Collection Series is Disc 6 – A Blade in the Dark (1983).
