Podcast Under The Stairs

Welcome to a brand new sub-set of show exclusively looking at the Italian Collection releases of 88 Films.

88 Films have, for the last 2 years or so, have been on a tear releasing a torrent of Italian genre classics in high definition. I have been purchasing them and it should be no surprise to anyone, I have left them pretty much unwatched (what can I say...I'm a compulsive collector).

In order to watch the movies I buy, and of course create some quality content for you all Under the Stairs, I will be running through each of the movies on this bonus series between 1-2 movies a month depending on the TPUTS schedule.

So strap yourself in for a rollercoaster ride of alleged plagiarism, zombies, gore, rape, genital mutilation, sexism, revenge, gialli, cops and robbers, cannibalism, sci fi & more bush and titties than an annual subscription to Penthouse magazine.

Disc 4 in the 88 Films Italian Collection is a first time watch for me and is an action rip-off hybrid of Rambo, Deliverance & Death Wish with a futuristic Sci-Fi movie name in Lamberto Bava's Blastfighter (1984).

The grading follows the Netflix rating style of 1 = Hated It, 2 = Didn’t Like It, 3 = Liked It, 4 = Really Liked It & 5 = Loved It

Blastfighter:

Duncan: 4

Up next on the Italian Collection Series is Disc 5 - Zombie Holocaust (1978).
