B-Movie Babylon

Today's movie is famous for two reasons...it's the first example of what we think of as modern found footage cinema (predating Blair Witch and The Last Broadcast by roughly a decade) and the film that had UFO enthusiasts convinced they'd seen real footage of a violent encounter with extra terrestrials!

Today we're venturing into the B-movie vault to tackle what may well be my favorite Star Wars ripoff in Luigi Cozzi's wildly entertaining Starcrash! This one's got Joe Spinell as a Darth Vader wannabe, Christopher Plummer as the Emperor, The Hoff in one of his earliest roles, and the inimitable Caroline Munro traversing space in a bikini years before Leia would don one on Jabba's barge! This one is a stone cold cult classic. Want to support the channel? https://www.patreon.com/Horrorgeek https://ko-fi.com/thehorrorgeekGet Your Horrorgeek Merch!https://horrorgeek.creator-spring.com/ Purchase Star Crash here: https://amzn.to/3Gh63uBBattle Beyond the Stars: https://amzn.to/40U4X1iDisclaimer: this is an Amazon affiliate link.

Sword and sandals films made a big comeback in the 80s, thanks in no small part of the success of Conan: The Barbarian. Today's movie figures if one oiled up bodybuilder with a sword was a recipe for box office success, then two oiled up bodybuilders with swords should make double the money! Join me as we enter the video vault to explore the weird, wonderful world of Ruggero Deodato and The Barbarian Brothers' cult classic fantasy flick, The Barbarians!Want to support the channel? https://www.patreon.com/Horrorgeek https://ko-fi.com/thehorrorgeekGet Your Horrorgeek Merch!https://horrorgeek.creator-spring.com/ Purchase The Barbarians here!https://amzn.to/3shQYWrConan The Barbarian: https://amzn.to/3MugBKhHeroes Never Die (B&W): The Italian Peplum Phenomenon 1950-1967: https://amzn.to/3QtzuhIItalian Sword and Sandal Films, 1908-1990: https://amzn.to/3tZhfcuDisclaimer: this is an Amazon affiliate link.

Today is a special day because we're tackling what might very well be my favorite movie if the 1980s...Russell Mulcahy's brilliantly over the top cult classic, Highlander!Released in 1986, and based off a student script from Gregory Widen, this tale of sword fighting immortals competing for the ultimate prize is like a big budget music video (complete with an iconic score from Queen!) and features Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery, and Clancy Brown in some of their most unforgettable roles.
