Unsung Horrors

Correction: director Anton Holden did not pass away in 2013. He is alive and kicking as of this recording.

Do we make you horny, baby? Okay, but don't make it weird (unless it's Something Weird). This month we're discussing a standout amongst the hundreds of New York-based sexploitation films from the 1960s, Anton Holden's sex thriller Aroused. Lance found some great details about the people involved with th film, and we make our gueesses about whether or not Bill Lustig saw this before making Maniac.

What's this? Unsung Horrors is covering a movie made this century? This DECADE? Well, if you've seen it, then you know why it was picked. Made with the exact same equipment, gusto, love, and makeshift gore as SOV movies of the 80s and 90s, Susana Kapostasy's films are a breath of fresh to anyone who loves films of this era (and who are purveyors of filth, like us!) It's available to watch on Tubi, but it if you have the means, we highly recommend picking up the disc from SRS cinema.

After a much needed break we return only to spend almost half the episode being grossed out by the lead actor. Despite this, GD's gives his performance in The Machine as much as he gave to any role for which he won an award. Lots of body swap talk and Lance death-shaming. We're back, baby!

It's No Rules November, the one month of the year when we ignore our "under 1000 views" rule. Lance's pick for this month is the necro-romance drama Love Me Deadly. Join us as we fall in love with Fred's sensitivity and find our appreciation for a one-time writer-director's willingness to tackle this subject.
