Debbie Does Damnation

Mar 14 2024 85 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we watched the absolutely delightful Super 8 claymation masterpiece DEBBIE DOES DAMNATION from 1999. The devil needs his horns, and it's up to a recently deceased naked woman named Debbie to track them down somewhere in the underworld. Sword fights! Gratuitous nudity! Spider skulls! Bat skulls! Reanimated dismembered corpses! Plus: Hilarious

Black Past

Mar 04 2024 84 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we watched Olaf Ittenbach's debut SOV feature film, BLACK PAST, a delightful 1989 German splatter fest of blood, guts, and severed limbs that felt like the deformed love child of EVIL DEAD, DEMONS, and A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. It is a nihilistic annihilation of the human body that we couldn't help but adore. We love practical effects and g

Sledgehammer

Feb 20 2024 88 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we're talking about David A. Prior's SLEDGEHAMMER from 1983, the very first SOV horror movie released straight-to-video. A two-roomed slasher that gets creative with seances and spooooky ghost shenanigans? Sign us up! Just please, for the love of god, prepare yourselves for an atrocity of slow-motion editing effects. Also: which one of us on

City of the Vampires

Jan 14 2024 75 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we're talking about the 1993 shot-on-video snoozefest CITY OF THE VAMPIRES, written and directed by Ron Bonk. We hope you like very long scenes of guys driving and walking around to fill run time, because this thing is jampacked with them. So load up on some garlic and kick back for a slightly delirious conversation about vampires, snowballi

Bloodfeast!: The Adventures of Sgt. Lunch

Jan 02 2024 97 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we're talking about the 1992 shot-on-video science fiction action movie BLOODFEAST!: THE ADVENTURES OF SGT LUNCH, which was recently re-released by Vinegar Syndrome's partner label Saturn's Core. How did nobody get court-martialed while making this? The cast was definitely using real firearms, right? Also, would TERMINATOR 2 have been a bett

Blood Lake

Dec 03 2023 88 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we're talking about the disappointingly mundane 1987 shot-on-video snoozer BLOOD LAKE. Is this the lamest killer ever featured in a slasher? Who allowed these children to be on set? Is this the only movie with a special effect credited to An Act of God?

How to Get... Revenge

Nov 14 2023 116 mins  
On this week's episode of Decayed Tapes, we're talking about the utterly unhinged 1989 educational video HOW TO GET... REVENGE, hosted by Linda Blair from THE EXORCIST. How does this exist? Who is this for? How many of these tips would land you in prison? All questions we badly attempt to answer. Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/decayedtapes Decayed Tapes is part o

The Resurrection of Michael Myers

Oct 30 2023 123 mins  
On this year's special Halloween episode, we watched The Resurrection of Michael Myers 1 and 2, which are two insane Swedish fan films from the late 1980s starring Michael Myers, Leatherface, Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, and the clumsiest skateboarder you've ever seen. Miguel also recaps his recent experience attending Halloween: 45 Years of Terror in Pasadena, California. Hubba
