O Titles

Films are listed by their original English-language release title when available. If the film has not been officially released in the U.S. then I'll use the informal release title. If that's not an option, then I'll go with the original foreign release title. I am trying to database every horror title made between 1950 - 1990 right here and will constantly be adding more in the future so make sure to check back! A * next to a title means I have it rated and have uploaded a photo but haven't done the review yet. If you see anything missing, shoot me a message and it will be added.

OPERATION PINK SQUAD II (1989). found this HK-craziness in an old box with another VCD: GHOSTLY VIXEN (1990). the latter would appear to qualify; i'll report back when i've seen it. is the supernatural element enough? what about ghost-comedies with very light scares?

ignore GHOSTLY VIXEN; it's already here.

So only OPSII is horror but the original isn't?

Yep I include ghost comedies. Almost wish I didn't though because there were so many produced in Asia in the 80s there's no way I could possibly see them all. I almost said I'd already watched Ghostly Vixen but checked and I actually had watched Ghost's Lover, not to be confused with the singular Ghost Lover. Gah!

> So only OPSII is horror but the original isn't?

correct. first PINK SQUAD is a police actioner. it's only #2 that goes loony-bin crazy with ghosts and portals to hell and stuff.

just FYI, rather than an actual add, dave markey's no-budget THE OMENOUS (1980) at least started out as a horror film parody.

you can tell this was made by a 16-year-old. an arm bursts out of _carrie's_ birthday cake. she uses psychic powers to kill kids on halloween. someone pours a chocolate milk on her head ("it's pig's blood!"). she's visited by space-aliens (one of whom lip-syncs "sweet transvestite"). at some point carrie murders her whole family, then a giant robot attacks the corporate offices of her billionaire adoptive father's shoelace empire, triggering full-scale armageddon. yup.

Never even heard of that one before!

spookyx3 said...

it is on the obscure side! before that, there was THE DEVIL'S EXORCIST (1975), which markey made at the age of 11 (!) after his parents forbade him to see the friedkin film.

The Bloody Pit of Horror said...

Strangely, The Devil's Exorcist was also the English title for a Spanish Exorcist ripoff also released in 1975.

OUT FOR BLOOD (XXX, 1990)
