Also Known As: Natura contro; The Green Inferno; Paradiso infernale
Disappointing follow up to the original Canibal Holocaust that tells the story of a woman reporter who hires a crew of men to help her locate a professor who is performing his studies in the jungle. Surprisingly, none of the "stars" die in this film. Ooops, sorry if I spoiled it for you. If you are looking for animal cruelty scenes, you won't find them here - this movie shows numerous scenes of kindness to animals, apparently compensating for the distasteful animal torturing portrayed in the first movie.

Also Known As: Terror caníbal; Terreur cannibale
A wonderfully inept attempt to cash in on the euro-cannibal craze of the era. The acting is terrible, the effects are worse, but you will enjoy watching the whitebread "actors" who cluelessly stumble about in their cannibal costumes. This film shares many common elements with Jess Franco's The Cannibals, hinting that perhaps Franco may have had something to do with the production but was too ashamed to be named in the credits.

A pretty decent gangster film from the 70's, with a talented cast. Possibly the most significant element of this film, however, is it marks the first time a major film studio included full frontal nudity footage of an actress with her legs spread in a non-porno movie. And we're not talking a bush shot here - you see the real deal. Ms. Blakely's parents are surely proud of their daughter's accomplishments.

This portrayal of the "star spangled avenger" is definitely not the comic book version, but Reb Brown's sincerity and honesty make it work.

Directed By: Kevin Tenney
Starring: Patrick Kilpatrick, Chris Miller and Suzanne Savoy
This passable monster chiller is actually aimed at a slightly younger audience, featuring a young hero whose family relocates to an old ranch house in the Southwestern desert in which resides an ancient Comanche monster known as a "Quagway" -- which has a sweet tooth for bite-sized human morsels. Of course, the poor kid spends three-fourths of the film trying to convince his addle-brained father that there's something evil lurking about... but dad's too wrapped up in his own problems to notice. The monster is not particularly scary in full view -- and we see it in full view quite a bit -- but the film's lack of overt shocks may be due to the slightly younger age of its target audience. Direction is credited to Kevin S. Tenney, who took over after writer John Woodward withdrew.

Dr. John Basso (Tremayne), a controversial stage hypnotist, claims that his beautiful assistant Doreena (Delany) can conjure up the lives of those long dead while under his spell. His act plays nightly at a local resort, where it catches the attention of shrewd businessman Sam Crane (Fletcher) - especially when Basso ends his show with a prediction of a murder that same night. When the prediction proves true, Crane approaches Basso with a money-making opportunity. The pressure builds to keep the show exciting, the murders continue, and strange reports of a hideous creature rising from the nearby lake are heard. Can all these things be connected? Filmmaker Larry Buchanan may be best remembered for his grade Z remakes of B-movies. In this case, Creature of Destruction is a re-make of Edward L. Cahn's The She-Creature. It contains just about everything one might expect from a Larry Buchanan effort: rock-bottom production values, campy acting, cliché-ridden dialogue, and a bargain-basement monster.

Also included on the disc are a 6 minute video of behind the scenes footage, including some shots of the Skull Cowboy and some eerie clips of Brandon Lee being shot (not the fatal shot) set to The Rolling Stones' Play With Fire and Paint it Black, a 5 minute interview with Brandon Lee on set and in makeup and smoking, including a portion where he talks about getting shot 20 times in the movie, and an 8 minute preview for The Crow: Salvation.

This curiosity defies all logical explanation. Some footage from the 70's seems to have been spliced together with some footage from the 60's, and voila we have a movie. The general idea here is that a group of students go out into the woods on a field trip in search of, well, bigfoot of course. See what is quite possibly the worst bigfoot suit ever made, as well as some totally amatuerish effects. Highly recommended, two thumbs-up fun!

Also Known As: Natura contro; The Green Inferno; Paradiso infernale
Disappointing follow up to the original Canibal Holocaust that tells the story of a woman reporter who hires a crew of men to help her locate a professor who is performing his studies in the jungle. Surprisingly, none of the "stars" die in this film. Ooops, sorry if I spoiled it for you. If you are looking for animal cruelty scenes, you won't find them here - this movie shows numerous scenes of kindness to animals, apparently compensating for the distasteful animal torturing portrayed in the first movie.

Also Known As: Terror caníbal; Terreur cannibale
A wonderfully inept attempt to cash in on the euro-cannibal craze of the era. The acting is terrible, the effects are worse, but you will enjoy watching the whitebread "actors" who cluelessly stumble about in their cannibal costumes. This film shares many common elements with Jess Franco's The Cannibals, hinting that perhaps Franco may have had something to do with the production but was too ashamed to be named in the credits.

A pretty decent gangster film from the 70's, with a talented cast. Possibly the most significant element of this film, however, is it marks the first time a major film studio included full frontal nudity footage of an actress with her legs spread in a non-porno movie. And we're not talking a bush shot here - you see the real deal. Ms. Blakely's parents are surely proud of their daughter's accomplishments.

This portrayal of the "star spangled avenger" is definitely not the comic book version, but Reb Brown's sincerity and honesty make it work.

Directed By: Kevin Tenney
Starring: Patrick Kilpatrick, Chris Miller and Suzanne Savoy
This passable monster chiller is actually aimed at a slightly younger audience, featuring a young hero whose family relocates to an old ranch house in the Southwestern desert in which resides an ancient Comanche monster known as a "Quagway" -- which has a sweet tooth for bite-sized human morsels. Of course, the poor kid spends three-fourths of the film trying to convince his addle-brained father that there's something evil lurking about... but dad's too wrapped up in his own problems to notice. The monster is not particularly scary in full view -- and we see it in full view quite a bit -- but the film's lack of overt shocks may be due to the slightly younger age of its target audience. Direction is credited to Kevin S. Tenney, who took over after writer John Woodward withdrew.

Dr. John Basso (Tremayne), a controversial stage hypnotist, claims that his beautiful assistant Doreena (Delany) can conjure up the lives of those long dead while under his spell. His act plays nightly at a local resort, where it catches the attention of shrewd businessman Sam Crane (Fletcher) - especially when Basso ends his show with a prediction of a murder that same night. When the prediction proves true, Crane approaches Basso with a money-making opportunity. The pressure builds to keep the show exciting, the murders continue, and strange reports of a hideous creature rising from the nearby lake are heard. Can all these things be connected? Filmmaker Larry Buchanan may be best remembered for his grade Z remakes of B-movies. In this case, Creature of Destruction is a re-make of Edward L. Cahn's The She-Creature. It contains just about everything one might expect from a Larry Buchanan effort: rock-bottom production values, campy acting, cliché-ridden dialogue, and a bargain-basement monster.

Awesome special FX by the master, Tom Savini.

Language: English (dubbed)
Quality Rating: B
Full Screen
No Subtitles
Directed By: Joe Law
Starring: Jackie Conn, Frankie Shum
Incredibly bizarre kung-fu flick featuring real life "crippled" dudes - one has no arms, the other has no legs. The story has them both losing their appendages as punishments, then they hook up together and train in the martial arts. Horrible, if not humorous, dubbing and sound effects lend to the entertainment value of this production.

Also Known As: Teenagers Battle the Thing; Teenagers vs. the Thing
This curiosity defies all logical explanation. Some footage from the 70's seems to have been spliced together with some footage from the 60's, and voila we have a movie. The general idea here is that a group of students go out into the woods on a field trip in search of, well, bigfoot of course. See what is quite possibly the worst bigfoot suit ever made, as well as some totally amatuerish effects. Highly recommended, two thumbs-up fun!
