The thing about this movie is that it's a lot like The Thing. Or rather, it's a lot like The Thing from Another World's thing, which wasn't a shapeshifting bastard, but a singular weird looking fuck that wanders around bothering a camp of scientists.

The movie begins with a guy crash-landing onto earth after being in orbit. He dies in the crash, but his body doesn't quite show it. The scientists wonder about this while the place experiences electrical/signal problems. They are cut off from the... Continue »

What is it with sequels which come in 2's? They're like a couple of asshole twins who think they're special cuz there are two of them. No, you're both weird, and there should only be one of you. Or maybe none in some cases. Like, for example, The Toxic Avenger 2 and 3, where Lloyd Kaufman accidentally films 4 hours of footage, and not to be wasteful, made two sequels out of the intended one. A lot of good that did him. Well, financially, sure, but T... Continue »

Hey all. Let's discuss guilty pleasure movies. I wanna know your top three. I will think on mine and comment later. Have fun!

With a title like that, you'd expect some hokey sci-fi piece of crap, but this one was actually pretty good. It's got a shit rating on imdb, but what do they know about trash?

In this story, a bunch of human-looking motherfuckers land on earth and immediately blast a dog with a ray-gun and disintigrate it, leaving only the bones behind and the dog's tag. Derek is one of the more rational ones who considers it in poor taste to annihilate a poor little creature on a planet that is obviously civil... Continue »

Oh boy, where do I start with this one? Get ready for some spoilers, because I can't not go into detail about this sci-fi mess of a movie. Continue »

In this era of quarantine boredom, I've been drinking a lot. Hasn't everyone? I got so much homework, my teachers felt like it wasn't enough and they started adding more assignments. How fucked is that?

With that said, I haven't made much progress on site stuff, but it's always in the back of my mind. It would be more in the back of my mind if I had some weed, because 4-20 2020 is going to suck without it!
I got some personal stuff beating me down, but I've still been worki... Continue »

Alright, who's in the mood for some trash?

As always, it'll be one point for every trashy quality below. It doesn't have to be a significant amount of anything. As long as it's there.


Nudity

Gore

Rape

Hardcore Penetration

Incest

Drug Use

Blasphemy

Cannibalism

Intentionally Bad Qualities

Video Nasties - Any movie to ever appear... Continue »

They have a lot of public domain crap on youtube, but I don't know what's good. I can sift through some of the garbage myself, but if there's anything decent on there, I'd prioritize it. Give me some recommendations, please!


The winner of this month's challenge will receive a roll of toilet paper.

Okay, So I tried to Post this yesterday. So I will now, and then add an update on who went home.

Hey guys. How is everyone doing? So I have been watching the maskedsinger, and as a way to keep busy I have been obsessively trying to frigure outwho the eight remaining singers are. I sound like a conspiracy theorist, butthat is okay. There is a mystery to solve, and anyone who knows me, knows Ilove a good mystery. So I bring it here. Even if you guys do not watch the showmaybe you can help me fig... Continue »

Okay. I thought it would be cool to have a would you rather thread. So I will start, and people can answer, and make up their own.


Would you rather be stuck in a horror movie, or a supernatural romance novel?

Okay. You are stranded on a desert island. What three movies/or books do you have to keep you company.

*I know you wouldn't be able to watch anything on a desert isladn, so just pretend you can lol.

Here's a recap of all episodes from season 1. This is my first time watching the show and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Can't wait to start season 2.

s1e01 - Trick or Treat (1983) - directed by Bob Balaban
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0717007/

This is a Halloween take on the old Scrooge story about a guy who collects debts and enjoys the suffering of others if he can come out on top. He has a haunted house rigged up with all kinds of spooky sound effects and fans behind curtains... Continue »

Hello world of trashepics. Let's play a game of twenty questions. I will start. You get twenty questions to figure out what I am thinking of? Let's have some fun!

As I settle on watching "Visiting Hours" for some trash points, I found myself more overall invested in the trailers. I have the old Anchor Bay disc and they put a few of their trailers before the movie, and it brings be back to an era of low tech and fond familiarity.



The first trailer is The Anniversary (1968), which is a Hammer... comedy? With Bette Davis in a mansion of disgruntedl family members!

The Entity (1982) is a short trailer about a pro-family woman... and her figh... Continue »

I am bored. What is the best horror movie that stars a porn actress? The best I got so far is Zombie Strippers staring Jenna Jameson.

Hey everyone. So since we are all quarantined. I thought we could do another draft. This time it's actors/actresses. Let's just have fun and no drama! Sign up here, and once I get at least 8 people signed up I will post the rules!

I wont get into a big rant because I'm not a super nerd, but goddamn... this movie was so much better than the last one. I was actually very satisfied with how this one played out. I liked the arcs, the twists, the callbacks, all of it.

Now with that said, I hope they don't fuck it up by adding more to this series. I know they want to do spin-offs, which I'm sure is inevitable, but leave this part of the series alone, considering most of the core cast is killed off or dead.

I watched this last night. It was nothing special, just your typical run-of-the-mill horror movie. It was better than the original, but that's not saying much, as that one was garbage. This one is just less garbage. I liked the retro feel to it; a throwback to the 70s. The acting was good, but there were some cringe worthy performances as well. The pacing was slow. I felt bored at some parts. The jump scar... Continue »

I was just wondering if there could be a connection between those two stories, the movie JC3 and the novel MD. The black sheriff dude is named Tashtego, which is an extremely unusual name. When I google it, most of the hits have something to do with the character from Moby Dick, or things that might be derived from that character. Also, his buddy, the white sheriff, is named Tubbs. This is reaching, but I wonder if Tubbs is an anagram for Stubb, the second mate from MD? I'm almost sure ther... Continue »

If I'm about to go on a rant about browsers, then you know I've got nothing better to do with my life!

What browser do you all use?
Ramble on about this question in your response.

I saw that Edge is at version 80 something, so I updated my 40 something version and all those little changes are blowing my mind. Standard features are actually working? What?! I know I should be on top of this stuff already, but you should never underestimate my laziness to catch up with modern times!... Continue »

In this video, you get to see Jean-Claude Van Damme in a trash can. If that's not a Trash Epic, I don't know what is.

Not sure where to post this, it's just sort of interesting. This guy apparently tracked down the origin of some of the more obscure monsters in the Monster Manual, in Dungeons and Dragons. Like, the owlbear, the rust monster, and the bulette. Apparently they got started as cheapo little rubber and plastic toy monsters, made by some company in Hong Kong for little kids back in the early 70's. I think it is interesting that the company apparently just made up their own freaky little monsters,... Continue »

..... (title of this post continued): of a Big Brother show.

I have mentioned this before, but it was quite awhile back... probably on IMDB, actually. Anyway, I think they did a good job on this. Some of the people on the Big Brother show come across as total idiots, but most of them eventually show that they do have some semblance of a brain, if they are given a chance to use it. Of course, even if they do use them, most of their brains get eaten eventually anyway, by the hordes of rave... Continue »

Everybody knows that Universal has been fucking up on their Dark Universe reboot, but that's because they're not even trying. This time around, they decided to give Leigh Whannell a shot, because at this point, what have they got to lose?

Now right off the bat, I can tell you I like Leigh. "Upgrade" was a kickass movie, and this recent effort is also a pretty solid one.

Invisible Man movies are usually about a scientist who takes some sort of drug to become invisible, and while this is partly... Continue »

In the last 24 hours, I've watched all three of these films, which are quite reputable in blaxploitation and stoner comedy circles. For some reason, I simply never got around to them, but obviously, if I'm binging the trilogy, they must have hooked me at some point or another.

I rank the series in descending order. The first one was pretty amazing as a ghetto California tale of suburban youth. It's fucking funny and it's well written. After that one, they get a bit more gimmicky, but people wil... Continue »
