Title Year Director IMDb Plot Links
Machine Head Michael Patrick; Leonard Murphy The Evolution of the Internal Combustion Engine Max Kelp is a geek, a geek who haplessly helps his father run a mediocre funeral home. Problem with Max is that he obviously would like to spend less time preparing the dead for burial and more time figuring out how to bring the dead back to life by using his “reverse impulse bypass manipulation.” I was pretty amused and impressed with Machine Head given the premise (and I’ll get to that in a moment) it sounded like one of those flicks that’ll just be a fun watch and will be something you can talk about with your buds for a while. Now, the premise, I mentioned earlier about Max’s method of reanimation using “reverse impulse bypass manipulation.” Sounds technical doesn’t it? Well, what the techobabble means is bringing the dead to life by strapping a lawnmower engine to the side of the deceased’s head and hooking him up to a home PC, a few bits and bytes and a whiff or two of carbon monoxide and “THE DEAD LIVE!” No seriously, that’s it, I can’t make stuff like that up, that’s why I watch and critique these movies. Machine Head never falls into the popular rut of starting out tongue-in-cheek and then suddenly the Director feels the need to get serious. Thankfully we stay pretty goofy for the duration. There is some slight nudity (from a corpse) and a bit of gore which started out looking promising but got a little too cheesy for my tastes towards the very end (a decapitation scene that I still don’t really understand what they were going for). The acting is above indie par, and Josh Walitt played geeky mad scientist with the utmost comedic precision. A little bit Frankenstein, a little bit Re-Animator, and more than a little bit of Lawnmower-Engine-Headed Man. Okay I’ll admit that was bad, but Machine Head is worth a watch solely based on the sheer lunacy of the subject matter. horrorwatch horrorwatch.com

Mosquito der Schaender 1976 Marijan Vajda; Marijan David Vajda 5.2 Based on a case history, Marijan Vajda's Mosquito der Schaender deals with a young man (Werner Pochath) whose childhood abuse leads him to some pretty twisted behavior. He is shoved around in his small village, causing him to remember being beaten by his father, who also molested his young sister. Now he is a mute who lives alone with a room full of dolls which he habitually destroys, visits hookers whom he disappoints, and generally serves as the town creep. He keeps having incidents with red liquids (ketchup, ink) which he is tempted to suck off his fingers. One day he goes to a mortuary and cuts a female corpse with a knife, drinking her blood and writing "MQ" — for "Mosquito" — in blood on the wall. The next day, his mean co-workers give him a blow-up love-doll. It isn't long before Pochath starts hanging around funeral parlors on a regular basis, pulling one corpse's eyes out, decapitating another, and repeatedly stabbing a third. Needless to say, his degeneration begins to accelerate, and soon he steals some glass pipettes from a local store and hallucinates sucking blood out of anatomically correct baby dolls. From there on, the weirdness just accumulates. — Robert Firsching All Movie Guide; IMDB

As mantraps and other jungle dangers slowly whittle away the search party, Foster becomes convinced that Susan's husband is somewhere on the tiny coastal island of Roka, home to the sacred island of Ra Ra Me. En route to the mountain, the party is captured by the Puka, a Stone Age tribe long considered extinct. Foster reveals that the tribe is cannibalistic, having been captured and forced to consume human flesh years before.
