Terrible Delights Terrible Delights

This week's pick is the 1974 action-ish movie Savage Sisters. Three women of three races join forces to get one million dollars from, and revenge on, a double-crossing Revolutionary. It is kind of like a wacky caper with bad acting, bad fight scenes, and Sid Haig's over-the-top stereotyping of Mexicans.

This week's pick is the 1985 film Gymkata. The trailer makes it look like a lot more fun than you end up getting, but there are some decent gymnastics fighting scenes, multiple questionable hairstyles and loads of ugly people. Friend of the show Mike Spada joins in on the disappointment.

This week's pick is the 1975 British horror film I Don't Want to be Born. A woman is cursed by a dwarf after she rejects his advances, then has an enormous baby possessed by the evil spirit of the dwarf. It seems the child will stop at nothing to exact the dwarf's revenge. It sounds a lot better than it actually is, but at least you get to see a baby murder multiple people.

This week's pick is the 1972 Golden Harvest film One Armed Boxer. Jimmy Wang Yu wrote, directed and starred as the titular character who seeks revenge on the fighters that killed his master.

This week's pick is the 1977 kinda-sorta action movie Bare Knuckles. A bounty hunter in Los Angeles tries to track down a serial killer that likes to hiss like a cat. Sloppy fight sequences, mustaches everywhere and an ok but lengthy chase scene make this potentially tolerable, depending on your mood.

This week's pick is the 1980 Lucio Fulci supernatural horror film the City of the Living Dead. A reporter and psychic that had been prematurely buried (whoops!) head to a hard-to-find Massachusetts town where a clergyman has recently hanged himself to prevent the gates of Hell from opening. Special guest Mike Neel joins us.
