TIL Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp directed the 2010 horror film Stalker. Stalker is a remake of the controversial Expose (1976) that starred Udo Kier, who was infamously dubbed, alongside Linda Hayden and 1970s British sex symbol Fiona Richmond. #ImACeleb

#humpdayhorror In the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Leatherface wears 3 different masks: 'Killing', 'Old Lady' & 'Pretty Woman'. The first represents hostility, the second represents domesticity, and the 3rd represents hospitality. #horror #texaschainsawmassacre #leatherface

About a year and a half ago, I post the END page from my first completed screenplay, and now I'm doing the same from my second. For a guy who's great at starting writing projects but terrible at finishing them, this feels extra special. Here's to the next one! Wayne IFWT

Anchor.fm/ifwtpod NEW EP! We're capping off our shot-on-video series covering the works of Charles Pinion, joined by the director himself! So join the 3 of us as we explore the chaos, carnage and cannibalism of his psychedelic freak-out WE AWAIT (1996). #horrorsky #DIY #90s

#HumpdayHorror The Beyond (1981) Fulci nixes narrative in favour of southern gothic surrealism in his 2nd entry into his Gates of Hell Trilogy. Gruesome death scenes and a fantastic Frizzi score make this Catholic zombie shocker a must see!

#trashploitationtuesday Filmed in 1984, we didn't get to see this one until 2021, thanks to a restore and re-edit by Vinegar Syndrome. There were rumours that an early script contained a character called 'Detective Dolemite'. Oh, what could have been. #newyorkninja #dolemite

#humpdayhorror While it may suffer from budgetary constraints and script shortcomings, The Void is steeped in Lovecraftian horror, with a story that gradually takes us deeper and deeper into the nightmare until we're as overwhelmed as the characters. #lovecraft #horror

Last night's snowfall capping the surrounding hills today making for a scenic lunchtime hike in the Scottish Borders. #scotland #nature #photography #snow

Happy Birthday to Italian stunner Gloria Guida who lit up the screens in 1970s Euro cinema. Pictured here in Fernando Di Leo's To Be Twenty (1978)

#TrashploitationTuesday Man from the Deep River(1972) Lenzi's influential cannibal movie starring Rassimov and Me Me Lai would lay the foundations for more extreme films later in the decade but would no less find itself on the video nasty list, mostly due to animal killings.

Anchor.fm/fwtpod IFWT REWIND We're taking u back to ep #115 as we dive into this psychological masterpiece by Euro-cultist Jose Ramon Larraz, who's run of Whirlpool, Vampyres and SYMPTOMS, is legendary.

#nowwatching for today's #Humpdayhorror BRING HER BACK. Foster homes. Secrets. Occult rituals - all from the same filmmakers of the standout teen horror Talk To Me. What's everyone's thoughts of this?

#trashploitationtuesday A spoof of Women In Prison films, The Big Bird Cage helped bring future Blaxploitation Queen Pam Grier to prominence, at a time where African American women struggled to find roles that weren't, according to Grier, 'invisible or stereotypical.'

Anchor.fm/ifwtpod IFWT Rewind No new ep this week, but we're taking u back to ep #47 where we discussed Ferrara's sleaze classic MS.45! We delve into the complicated star Zoe Lund and discuss the gender politics that makes this tight exploitation flick essential viewing #filmsky

#humpdayhorror Lacking the legendary reputation of the first and the true batshit insanity of the second, The Exorcist III deserves its own place in horror history, with an eerie atmosphere, striking cinematography and a chilling villain that’s up there with the genre’s best.

#trashploitationtuesday Based on the Viz comic strip of the same name, acclaimed TV director Ed Bye (Red Dwarf, Absolutely Fabulous, The Vicar Of Dibley) helms a film so loathed that Graham Drury, the cartoonist who created the 'slags', never worked on the strip again.

Anchor.fm/ifwtpod NEW EP! #spookyseason continues as we dive into 1968's WITCHFINDER GENERAL - a film that would be the first in what Mark Gatiss would term the 'Unholy Trinity of Folk Horror'. Witchfinder General would be the last film in the short life of dir. Reeves.

#trashploitationtuesday The first in a series of 'Mega Shark Vs Increasingly Outlandish Creatures' series, released during a resurgence of 'creature in the water' films, and it may just get a mention on this week's episode. #shark #theasylum

#humpdayhorror The very definition of a film creeping up on you, Soft & Quiet uses the single take conceit to slowly drag you into a world of rage and ugliness, where even the kindest soul can be coaxed into committing the most horrible acts.

#NowWatching It's Mr & Mrs Wayne's anniversary today, so we're off to the cinema to witness the story of an MMA legend and his tragic downfall. Because, obviously, right?

#humpdayhorror One of the hidden gems of 2022, Fresh puts a twisted spin on the world of modern dating and our obsession with all things physical. Screenwriter Lauryn Kahn's intention was to make a horror film for people who were on the fence about the genre.

#TrashploitationTuesday Don Juan, Or If Don Juan Were A Woman (1973) Starring Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot(in her 2nd to last role). Bardot once again teams up with Roger Vadim who was interested in looking at the sexual liberation of the era thru the gaze of a woman.

The Curse of Frankenstein from 1957 would mark the 1st time a Hammer Horror was shot in colour. Dir. Terence Fisher & DP Jack Asher were so in thrall of the Eastman film stock, that they took to painting objects such as leaves and berries to take advantage of the vivid colours #hammerhorror

#HumpdayHorror The Vampire Lovers (1970) Hammer pushes their 'bloodshed and bosoms' formula into overt erotica in this adaptation of Carmilla - a vampire novel released 25 years b4 Stoker's Dracula. The book would be used against censors who weren't happy with the lesbianism. #horror

#trashploitationtuesday If 'fatsploitation' was a subgenre, Criminally Insane, a.k.a. Crazy Fat Ethel, would be it's poster child. Priscilla Alden reprised her title role in the 1987 sequel, which uses roughly 50% of the original's footage as flashback material.

#humpdayhorror A key film in the Australian New Wave movement, Long Weekend makes heavy use of folk horror elements, as well as the inherent dangers of the Australian wilderness, with an intangible villain which exacts a brutal revenge that is, undoubtedly, very well deserved.

#trashploitationtuesday With a visual quality that's been colloquially referred to as 'Shot On Shiteo', Black River Monster sees its lead Craig Martin pulling triple duty as hero Leroy, his cantankerous mother, and the eponymous creature.

Marisa Mel and Stephen Boyd would meet on the set of Marta, a Spanish-Italian giallo film. 6 months later they'd develop an intense relationship whilst filming The Great Swindle, after which both would head off to a 'Gypsy camp' and get married in a blood ceremony. #giallo

#HumpdayHorror Fascination (1979) Master of the cinema of fantastique, Jean Rollin, brings his surrealistic take to the vampiric genre. Ox blood drinking elites, aristocratic vampires and led by porno star Brigitte Lahaie, Fascination is a study of atmosphere and aesthetic. #horrorsky

#humpdayhorror Featuring classic folk horror tropes (rural setting, isolated community, women the root cause of all evil), The Severed Sun was filmed in Cornwall, also the filming location of Mark Jenkin's own folk horror Enys Men, which we covered almost 2 years ago. @deanpuckett.bsky.social

Upon winning an Oscar, recipients traditionally thank the Academy, family, friends, colleagues, influences etc. When Lee Marvin won for his dual role in Cat Ballou, he opened by thanking Smokey, his faithful equine co-star. #leemarvin #catballou #TIL

Anchor.fm/ifwtpod NEW EP! Wayne is on the lam from Interpol, so @flixology.bsky.social joins Liam in the hosting chair as he brings us Dario Argento's 1987 giallo OPERA to discuss. Is it his last masterpiece? Did the Macbeth Curse hit production? Click to hear what we think!

#humpdayhorror Rather than simply recycling the 'Man vs Shark' premise we've seen a million times before, Dangerous Animals, Sean Byrne's first feature film in 10 years, is more like 'Man vs. Self' with a few sharks thrown in. #dangerousanimals #shark

#TrashploitationTuesday Deadbeat at Dawn (1988) 3 n a half yrs in the making & funded by Van Bebber's student loan, Deadbeat at Dawn is fun, inspired & idiosyncratic. W/ director/lead a trained martial artist, & influenced by Evil Dead, we get a propulsive kineticism throughout

On this day, 10 years ago, IFWT's Wayne was on Hong Kong's Avenue Of Stars, trying his best to out-pose the great Bruce Lee. He failed. Still, it was a beautiful day in a great part of the city. #hongkong #brucelee #avenueofstars

#HumpdayHorror Candance Glendenning's name might not come up too often, but this British 70s scream queen worked with likes of Norman J. Warren in the great Satans Slave(her biggest leading role), and was also in the early slasher film The Flesh and Blood Show (1972).
