The films

WATCHdeep cut

Delirium

A Vietnam veteran, a vigilante group and a plot that gives up. Not the Lamberto Bava one.

WATCHobscure

Blood Rites

Andy Milligan shooting in Staten Island with a hand-held Auricon. An acquired taste nobody acquires.

WATCHobscure

Don't Go in the Woods

Shot in Utah for 100,000 dollars with a score that never stops. Beloved by a small and stubborn group.

WATCHobscure

I Miss You, Hugs and Kisses

A Canadian courtroom drama about a real murder. Its presence on the list is inexplicable.

WATCHobscure

Night of the Demon

Bigfoot tears a man's genitals off. That is the scene, that is the film, that is why it was prosecuted.

obscure

Don't Go Near the Park

Cursed cave dwellers from 12,000 BC eating people in modern Los Angeles. Incoherent throughout.

WATCHobscure

Exposé

The only British film on the DPP list. A novelist, a typist and Fiona Richmond in a farmhouse.

WATCHobscure

Fight for Your Life

A home invasion built entirely on racial abuse. Genuinely hard to watch and not for craft reasons.

WATCHobscure

Frozen Scream

Every line is dubbed, including scenes with nobody talking. Almost hypnotically incompetent.

WATCHobscure

Mardi Gras Massacre

An Aztec-obsessed killer in New Orleans. A Blood Feast remake in all but name, and slower.

obscure

Revenge of the Bogey Man

Roughly 40 percent flashback to the first film. A sequel assembled rather than made.

WATCHobscure

The Slayer

A painter's nightmares kill people on an off-season island. Genuinely atmospheric and badly underrated.

WATCHobscure

The Witch Who Came from the Sea

Millie Perkins is extraordinary in it. A sad film about incest and memory, banned as a gore film.

WATCHobscure

Unhinged

Three women, a mansion, rain, and a twist. Shot in Oregon and stranger than its reputation.

Franco women-in-prison, made fast and cheap. On the list for the category rather than the content.

WATCHobscure

Axe

68 minutes, shot in nine days, and oddly melancholy for something on a banned list.

WATCHobscure

Forest of Fear

Marijuana growers, a herbicide and some very slow zombies. On the list by accident of title.

WATCHobscure

Terror Eyes

A motorcycle killer in Boston with a kukri. Rachel Ward's debut and a real giallo influence.

WATCHcult

Don't Look in the Basement

An asylum where you cannot tell staff from patients. Shot in twelve days in Texas and quite effective.

WATCHcult

Evilspeak

Clint Howard, a military academy, a computer and a lot of pigs. Better than it has any right to be.

WATCHcult

Human Experiments

A women-in-prison film with a brainwashing subplot. Linda Haynes deserved better material.

WATCHcult

Island of Death

Mastorakis watched Texas Chain Saw, counted the perversions and wrote a list. It shows.

WATCHcult

Madhouse

A deaf teacher, a disfigured twin and a rottweiler. Shot in Savannah and better made than most of the list.

WATCHcult

Visiting Hours

Michael Ironside stalking a hospital. A real cast, a real budget, and no business being on the list.

Cannibals who look like they were recruited outside the catering truck. Almost impressively bad.

WATCHcult

Love Camp 7

The film that started the nazisploitation cycle. Lee Frost, a backlot, and no defence available.

cult

Pranks

A dorm over Christmas break and a plot that runs out. Notable mainly for an early Daphne Zuniga.

WATCHcult

SS Experiment Camp

Notorious in Britain almost entirely for its poster. The film is inert.

WATCHcult

The Werewolf and the Yeti

Paul Naschy in the Himalayas. On the list almost certainly because somebody read the title and stopped.

WATCHcult

Devil Hunter

Franco at his most indifferent. Ninety minutes of jungle and a monster with bulging eyes.

WATCHcult

Don't Go in the House

A man with a flamethrower and a steel room. The mother is the point and the film knows it.

WATCHcult

Nightmares in a Damaged Brain

The distributor went to prison over this one. The only DPP case that put a man behind bars.

WATCHcult

Night of the Bloody Apes

A luchadora, a heart transplant from a gorilla, and real open-heart surgery footage spliced in.

WATCHcult

Cannibal Apocalypse

Vietnam veterans come home with a bite that spreads. A better idea than the film delivers.

WATCHcult

Deep River Savages

The first Italian cannibal film. A Man Called Horse relocated to Thailand with mondo bolted on.

WATCHcult

Nightmare Maker

Susan Tyrrell as the aunt, giving a performance far too committed for the film around it.
