WEIRD WEDNESDAY: Fight for Your Life (1977)
The racist language used by William Sanderson — yes the guy from TV’s Newhart — as he attacks a black family is probably why this movie ended up as a section 1 video nasty. I first discovered this movie thanks to Cinema Sewer, which is where I learned of many a disreputable film. Sanderson plays Kane, a hate-fuelled […]

Shi da zhang men chuang Shao Lin (Shi, The Founder and Grandmaster of Shaolin) came to America under a bunch of titles: Fight for Survival, Fight for Shaolin Tamo Mystique, Lady Wu Tang, and Don’t Bleed on Me.

Is […]

WEIRD WEDNESDAY: The Female Bunch (1969)
Shot in the summer of 1969 at Spahn Ranch, which was the home of the Manson Family at the time, The Female Bunch also has moments filmed at Hanksville and Capitol Reef in Utah as well as Las Vegas, Nevada. Adamson loved shooting outside. He must have loved every second of this movie. All the bad men […]
