This week we take a look at one of the standout features of the 70's blaxploitation age, William Crain's seminal vampire movie, Blacula, starring William Marshall, Vonetta McGee, and Thalmus Rasulala. Blaxploitation is a troubling topic to take on as the bad movie outnumber the good movies three to one and definitely play up the worst black stereotypes but for a little while there blaxploitation movies and their arty cousin, the LA Rebellion, pushed forward black power narratives and power fantasies that spotlighted black talent and provided black audiences with great characters that reflected their values and dreams.Blacula as a horror movie is also a standout picture, being every bit as riveting and spooky as Hammer's best outings. William Marshall absolutely dominates the screen as doomed Prince Mamuwalde and Vonetta McGee is hard to take your eyes off of. Give this episode and listen and do chill out.

Not to be confused with Sergio Martino's other scorpion movie The Case of the Scorpion's Tale, this pseudo-giallo film follows an ancient Etruscan history, the murder of John Saxon's character, and a drug-smuggling ring in a very muddled plot that was originally intended to be a limited run TV series. Unfortunately, this movie is often tedious to get through and has no real grasp of the viewer throughout, so we struggle to find some interesting things to say about this misstep in Martino's filmography. We're also drinking Goodwater Brewery's McAllister Irish Red Ale!

Claudio Cassinelli plays a man on the edge in Sergio Martino's unique eurocrime oddity THE SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A MINOR which mixes comedic elements, the elaborate (and stylish) murder sequences from the popular giallo films of the time - including a knock-off Goblin-style score almost as good as the real thing - and the usual Poliziotteschi trappings of the era to create something a bit scattershot, but totally unique. Filled with odd flourishes and bizarre choices, it's equally confusing and enthralling - just like our hosts! Check it out!  The post Episode 238 – Wild in the Streets – The Suspicious Death of a Minor (1975) first appeared on Cinema Smorgasbord.

This week we go back to 1973 for Sergio Martino's roughie TORSO.  Long-time listeners will know that Martino is highly respected here at the Necro Camp, but what makes TORSO most interesting is that, though it operates well within the Giallo world, it can also be considered a proto-slasher having predated all of the seminal slasher films by at least one year.   Intro:    “Necromaniacs” – Mike Hill Outro:  “Fucked with a Knife” – Cannibal Corpse

Devin & James are back in the Den, and this time they brought their leather vests and switchblade boots cause they're ready for the Italian POST-APOCALYPSE. The post-atomic wasteland became all the rage globally after the success of films like Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior and Escape from New York, and clever (and not-so-clever) copycats began to pop up everywhere. But, as usual, the Italian filmmakers did take the proverbial yellowcake. In this episode we focus on Enzo Castellari's 1990: THE BRONX WARRIORS, Joe D'Amato's ENDGAME, Lucio Fulci's WARRIORS OF THE YEAR 2072, and finally, Sergio Martino's HANDS OF STEEL. Don't forget your spiked wristbands!

This week, we set the Wayback machine to “1983” and continue discussing the Italian wave of post-Mad Max films.  First up, we race against the Eurac Monarchy to find a fertile woman in Sergio Martino's 2019, AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK, starring Michael Sopkiw, Anna Kanakis, and George Eastman.  Then we penetrate the Wall of Illusion with the Rider in WARRIOR OF THE LOST WORLD, starring Robert Ginty, Persis Khambatta, Donald Pleasance, and Fred Williamson.  We finish up protecting our water from Alien in EXTERMINATORS OF THE YEAR 3000.

Devin & James are back in the Den with a new topic! We are taking a TOUR OF ITALY, an 8-episode long series, each featuring a different sub-genre created or perfected by Italian filmmakers. We begin with a journey through the shadowy dream territory of GIALLO films. These films are highly stylized murder mysteries, most with a heaping helping of gore. We offer up a sample of some great specimens, and specifically some of the great directors, in this uniquely Italian movement, with a focus on Mario Bava's BLOOD & BLACK LACE, Lucio Fulci's DON'T TORTURE A DUCKLING, Sergio Martino's TORSO, and of course, Dario Argento's DEEP RED. We also go over a few other titles, as well as define the tropes that make a Giallo easy to spot, even if it's not so easy to spot that gloved killer sneaking up from behind!

We continue our dystopian/post apocalypse season with Sergio Martino's '2019: After The Fall Of New York' and Albert Pyun's 'Cyborg'. Follow us on Instagram @championcinemapod

Recently, Accademia Giallo presented a rare interview with genre director extraordinaire, Sergio Martino--filmed during a visit to Chicago's historic Music Box Theatre, where he showed two of his most iconic thrillers, Torso and The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh.While recording the intro to that piece, Ian and Bryan spoke at length about meeting Martino, what his films mean to them, and their surprised reaction to the Maestro's own estimation of his reputation as a filmmaker.
