Street Trash(1987)

The owner of a liquor store finds a dusty box of really cheap wine called Tenafly Viper in a crawlspace. He then begins to sell it off at a dollar a bottle. The cheap wine is obviously bad but sells it to the local hobo's anyway. Little did he know, that everyone who drinks it melts almost instantaneously. This film was originally supposed to offend everyone, but it became a favorite for midnight viewings.


This cult classic has recently been released by Synapse Films twice. The first release had really awesome Tenafly Viper labels, with almost nothing else except a trailer and some notes. The newer Special Meltdown edition has a new documentary and interviews with the cast and crew. This films effects are just amazing.


The people bubble and melt down spewing purple and green goo. Keep a look out for random breast shots also. Who knew a movie about melting liqour could be one of the greatest horror-comedies of the 80's. Watching people melt into a shitty toilet, what could possibly be wrong with this film?

The Redsin Tower(2006)

Butchery and Carnage will Reign upon all who enter THE REDSIN TOWER. Mitch and Kim were in a long six year relationship when Kim decided to break up with Mitch. Mitch looses his mind and will do anything to get Kim back, even kill. Kim goes to hang out with some friends and they decide to go to The Redsin Tower and party. Mitch follows them the entire way there and ends up getting his ass beat at a gas station. He continues to follow them to the tower to get Kim back.

The Redsin Tower is Toe Tag Pictures first film that steps away from the fake snuff underground vibe. They did an awesome job with film and is extremely well made. All of the actors are unknown actors and all do a terrific job with all of there roles, also the effects/gore in the film are top notch as you would expect from any Toe Tag Pictures film.

The film is very different than what you would think from the trailer, so don't think that you have the entire film thought out already because of the trailer. There are tons of twist and very unique elements in this film which makes it extremely fun to watch,

It is very rare for a movie to come along that changes the world of horror, I believe that Fred Vogel's The Redsin Tower will be one of these movies. It is not another one of these PG-13 joke of a horror movie. Toe Tag is around to scare the fuck out of us and they will settle for nothing less.

August Underground's Penance(2007)

Has someone ever handed you a movie, not telling you one thing about it, only telling you to watch it. What if that tape was the personal home video of two sociopaths on a killing spree? This is their home movie, for their eyes-only. This is August Underground's PENANCE. The third and final film in the AU franchise Directed By Fred Vogel and Starring Cristie "Crusty" Whiles. PENANCE shows the dark decline of the two nameless killers from the previous films as they continue to videotape their madness on their path to destruction.

This is the long awaited third and final film in the August Underground trilogy. Was this film worth the wait? Yes it was worth every fucking second. August Underground's Penance starts out as the other two films(August Underground and August Underground's Mordum) did by just showing you the every day life's of the two killers played by director Fred Vogel and the lovely Cristie(Crusty)Whiles. The killers are more brutal than ever, but all good things must come to a end. Penance being the third and final film shows the downfall of killers.

If you are a fan of the other August Underground films you will absolutely eat this up. This is by far the goriest of the three, also probably the most realistic. Fred set out to make a film to shock us and he succeeded. The effects in the movie are extremely well done, Jeremy Cruise did an amazing job.

August Underground's Penance will be reviled March 30th at the Cinema Wasteland(http://www.cinemawasteland.com) convention in Strongsville Ohio. There are pre-orders up in the Toe Tag Picture shop for August Undergrounds Penance(two versions the limited to 1000 snuff edition and the regular version).

Cannibal Ferox(1981)

For what they have done MAKE THEM DIE SLOWLY. Umberto Lenzi's Cannibal Ferox is said to be banned in 31 country's and be the most violent film ever made. It is very far from being the most violent film ever made, it is your typical Italian cheese film. With that it is an extremely fun film to watch. Plus the film uses the word "twat" a lot so that alone makes it a winner in my book.

Cannibal Ferox is about a brother sister duo along with there friend(the twat) that are traveling to the Amazon to displace the myth that cannibalism happens as an organized practice. In the jungle they meet two drug dealers that have been attacked by cannibals. They team up to try to leave to escape the jungle to not meet the wrath of the cannibals. They find out that Mike(played by John Morgan aka Giovanni Lombardo Radice) lied about them getting attacked by cannibals, when they really they attacked the tribe.

There is some pretty cool gore scenes in Cannibal Ferox. You get some hooks threw the tittays to some typical cannibal movies castrations. This movie is a classic I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a fun viewing experience.

August Underground(2001)

August Underground is by no mean a film for anyone, it is one of the/if not the best fake snuff film ever made. Directed by Fred Vogel, August Underground tells you about two killers in there every day life. It shows you every aspect like them going to a concert and having fun, all the way to rubbing shit in a girls cut off nipple.

Fred wanted to make a ultra realistic film, and he succeeded. The effects are amazing, every little detail is there. This film does not over show what could happen he keeps it real and what could really happen in real life.

Toe Tag Pictures have put together the ultimate August Underground DVD. There are tons of extras on this release, there are your standard trailers and photo galleries along with a introduction from director/star Fred Vogel. But this is not even scratching the surface.

First there is the documentary “Hammer to The Head: A Closer Look at A.U.” This starts of as Fred Vogel talking about the film it self and inspirations he had for the making of the film. Then it moves in to “August Underground on Location” where it goes around and shows the shooting locations that was used in the film along with some funny stories of what happed, any goofs. Thinking this would be enough? No, there is also another part entitled “August Underground behind the Brutality” where it interviews people and cast that were involved in the film and talks about the making of it and all the hard work that went in to filming it and doing all of the special effects.

The second documentary on the disc is “August Underground “Too Real For Comfort” An Outsider’s Perspective”, which it interviews various people about the first time they seen August Underground and what do they think will become of the film. They interview such people as Art Ettinger of Ultra Violent Magazine, Nick Palumbo of Murder-Set-Pieces and other various people.

There are also three commentary tracks. One with Fred Vogel, another with Fred Vogel and Ben LaBonte, and a snuff edition exclusive titled “Killer Commentary”.

Also be sure to check out the sequel to August Underground called August Underground's Mordum. There is also a third and final part to the film being released at the Cinema Wasteland convention in Ohio.

August Underground is a film that will change the horror business, Fred Vogel and Toe Tag Pictures are out to scare the shit out of you not to pussy-foot around like all the other crap that is being made today. I would love to salute Fred and Toe Tag Pictures for this amazing film they have made. Don’t expect going in to this as another one of these controversial horror films, you have no plot, no story, just pure carnage as you follow around two friend with there sick and twisted adventures. I warn you, this is one of the most sick, vile, twisted movies have/will ever see so if you don’t think you are up to it stay the fuck away or you will feel the power of the hammer.

Pig(1998)

Rozz Williams and Nico B.'s Pig is a black and white short film depicting the relationship between a killer and his victim unleashing a storm of mutilation, torture, and strangely, a bonding connection between those very two objects in the film. The film itself isn't by any means a normal picture in either the horror or art genres but it most certainly does tell an unsettling story that I'm sure many individuals could relate to watching the 23 minute short. The entire movie is metaphorical and unrealistic but it does contain some explicit homo-erotic themes along with nudity and sadomasochistic acts that maybe difficult for some people to watch.

First and for most, I'd like to point out that all of the S&M torture in the film is real, all the blood and cutting with the razor which plays a big role in the whole morale and point of the film. While it is based off personal demons the co-director and man responsible for the film being made, Rozz Williams(who killed himself shortly after the film was made), it is still a very watchable movie for everyone. It has a a considerate amount of gore even though the mutilation is real(but how much blood can a human shed, really?), it has a great style in the art department including 2 great settings, the hell-degreed desert of death valley and an old beaten up house which a serial killer of the nature examined in this film could very well live in, and this is one of the few short films I have witnessed that could be taken any way depending on the viewer. The interpretation on this particular short could be taken depending on the viewers personal demons or philosophic nature just like Rozz intended. It's a gore film that make you think yourself scared which is horror at it's best!

As for the actual dvd, theres only one release which is by Cult Epics which is also numbered and limited so the price range of the dvd is around 45-55 USD, not to say that isn't a reasonable price. The dvd is crammed full of extras including commentaries by Nico B., an extra super 8-mm test short, a Rozz Williams tribute video(on account of his suicide), Rozz's suicide note, the book used in the film made by Rozz Williams entitled "Why God Permits Evil", and a few other goodies. Overall it's an expensive but well worth it package.

Men Behind the Sun(1988)

Unit 731 was an Japanese covert medical experiment unit in WWII mainly focusing on biological weapons. They used prisoners as test subject. There experiments would range from being placed in to high pressure chambers until death to being starved from food and water to see how long a human could survive. Mou Tun Fei's film Men Behind the Sun shows you what happened in Unit 731 with out holding any thing back.

Men Behind the Sun tells the story from many different perspectives in the movie. It focuses on the youth squad of Unit 731, but it also shows the high ups and the prisoners. This film basically documents some of the experiments they did on the prisoners. It also shows what happens at the end of the war and how they had to destroy Unit 731 so that it would never be know what happened there.

This film is not for the faint heart. It has excellent effects, but there is an autopsy in the movie of a little Chinese boy that is not effects, its all real. There is also a cat being eaten alive by hundred's of rats, so if real and/or animal death disturb you stay away from this film. Men Behind the Sun is a very powerful film, I recommend it strongly. But keep in mind this all really happened.

Cannibal Holocaust(1980)

Made nearly 30 years ago, we have Ruggero Deodato's infamous cult classic "Cannibal Holocaust". This film is still shocking people with its brutal deaths or real animal slaughters. Shot on location in New York and the Amazon, it has visually stunning locations.

A film crew heads out to the Amazon to film a documentary about cannibalism. The crew murders and rapes the cannibal tribes to get the best shot possible, this is what leads to there demise. After months of not having any contact with the crew a search team is assembled to look for the missing crew. The search team is leaded by the Dean of Anthropology at New York University, Dr. Harold Monroe. As they are in the jungle looking for the crew they see the cannibals with possessions that belonged to the crew. Once they see the film canisters the smart Dr. Harold Monroe(played by porn star Robert Kertman) trades the film for a voice recorder. When they are back in New York they review what footage was shot, because they were going to edit it together and shot a tv documentary. When they are done with the film, they destroy it because of the unbelievable content on it.

Cannibal Holocaust is the film that got me in to horror, and still is one of my favorite films. The film is extremely savage, with amazing effects. If the animal violence kept you from watching the film in the past, now you can pick up the dvd released by Grindhouse Releasing, it has an "Animal Cruelty Free Version" that goes black before every animal death.



Some douche bag at Relevant Entertainment Group decided it would be a good idea to remake this film. This is an outrage, there is no way this film could even be remade today. It would be a steaming pile of shit.
