“The ring, and the flowers, and where’s aunt Louis going to sit! Who gives a shit!?”

There’s a mass suicide spree going on with some frat kids at a local college! When a cops younger brother turns up dead, he and his mullet decide to team up and investigate what’s really happening.

“You don’t have to be concerned; you’re going to be with the strong arm of the law!”

Man, let me fucking tell you. This movie is the 1980s. No 2 ways about it pal!

The hair, the women, and the machismo. This was the decade to be alive as a young adult!

This movie keeps your attention by randomly flashing titties in your face, and they aint just any titties.

These are the 1980s natch titties, which in turn are attached to 1980s natch women.

For example; you’ll see some characters conducting dialogue and boom you’re whisked into a satanic ritual chamber with boobs everywhere.

Like at breakneck speed its fucking ridiculous and genius at the same time.

“Can We Talk?”

Ya know what else I like about this movie? Like you constantly have 2 different songs playing in the background.

Nothing screams art film when you have 2 incidental music tracks overlayed on each other competing for the audience attention.

But, with regard to the soundtrack. I’m in love. There are moments of shear brilliance with the incidental music (when it’s allowed) and the individual 80s rock songs that temporarily blare thru.

You can get lost in just the music alone, and I think that, and the titty splashes, make for an artistic cocktail which defines the decade.

The intro song in this movie, reminds me of the Strong as I am song from Manhunter:

"Manhunter Strong as I am”

However, the dialogue dubbing can be straight fucked. It’s just all over the godamn map man. Long monologues that are better suited for a stage play, dominant the latter half of the film.

Which I guess is no accident, cause the movie splices genres. One minute your deep and dirty in a satanic panic flick, and boom mother fucking zombies…and then snap bitch, more titties.

Its like those laser light shows you can go to, where ya know they play music and show you a bunch of images. The images usually coincide with the song and the artist playing, but there’s no real plot.

That’s what this movie is man, its just sitting there being barraged by a bunch of random shit held together by the idea that some sinister shit is going down.

What’s cool is seeing Grandpa Munster himself (Al Lewis) trying to do his best not to act like the Grandpa Munster character. Its hilarious.

However, good ol’ Al is not the only old school cameo we get from yesteryear. Motherfucking Duane “Ben” Jones of Night of the Living Dead fame stars in this shindig.

See there are multiple tales here pleb!

Final Word –

MRHELLBOX – It’s films like this that remind you that movies, as a medium are to be experienced. For better or for worse you need to be honest with yourself.

The rating given to this film at least from me, is based on the feeling I received while watching. That is all. I loved it, feels like we've opened up a portal to where we can see how cool the old days were.

That said, my rating is not a reflection of the movies quality. Nostalgia plays a role here, but if I did have to rate this film from a quality standpoint….it’s way fucking better than Verotika. – 4/5

SCHLONG LONG – Every woman in this film is pure sex. The amount of child support I would have to pay after hooking up with each of them….would be enough to fund a small country in Central America! – 5/5

DRUNKEN MASTER – GODAMN! What a show! I don’t even know what the fuck happened, but I was down from the jump….fucking 4/5 would Satan worship with Grandpa Munster again!

PRINCE PECTORALS – Take note, this movie is a window into the realm of Alpha Males from ages past…Come all ye faithful, and pickup the sword of your forebears! Them girls await you in Valhalla! 4/5
