BELIAL’S DREAM

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post Belial’s Dream (2017) Directed By Robert Morgan who also Wrote the Screen Play. Belial’s Dream was Originally a Short Film Commissioned for Arrow Films’ Blu Ray Release of Frank Henenlotter’s  Movie Basket Case.

                   

For Those Who May be Unaware Basket Case is the 1982 Cult Slasher Horror Classic Directed by Frank Henenlotter and Produced by Edgar Levins. To Sum Up Basket Case in a Nutshell Duane and His Extremely Deformed and Psychotic Conjoined Twin Be are Surgically Separated as Kids. Duane carries  Belial around NYC in a Locked Wicker Picnic Basket as the Twins seek Revenge on the Doctor’s that Separated Them. I HIGHLY Recommend You definitely should check out the movie Basket Case as it is in at Least My Humble Opinion a True Horror Classic.

                   

So When I heard of this Video I was instantly interested because I love Fan Fiction Projects. It’s Insanely Entertaining seeing People’s Interpretations come to Life and become an Extenuation of the Movie Itself. Thusly when I saw the Title of the Video the first thing I thought to myself was that’s a Kickass Concept, and I wonder what a Creature as Demented and Deadly as Belial actually Dreams About? Could Belial dreaming of  Rainbows and Bunny Rabbits during His Psychotic Slumber? Yeah I don’t fucking Think So.

Enjoy.

Thanks For Watching,

Saturday Slasher Cinema: THE DRILLER KILLER

Welcome to this Week’s Installment of Saturday Slasher Cinema featuring the 1979 Black Comedy Slasher Film Directed by Abel Ferrara and Starring Ferrara credited as Jimmy Laine. Ferrara  is an American Filmmaker , known for the PROVOCATIVE and often CONTROVERSIAL Content in His Movies, His use of Neo-Noir Imagery and Gritty Urban Settings.

                   

The Plot concerns Reno Miller, a Struggling Artist in New York City, being Driven Insane from Stress and Killing Derelicts with a Power Drill. When the Movie was Released on Video Cassette in 1982, its Graphic Packaging drew Complaints which landed the Release on a List of “Video Nasties” that were BANNED IN THE UNITED KINGDOM under the Video Recording Act.

Video Nasty is a Colloquial Term in the United Kingdom to Refer to a Number of Movies, Typically Low Budget Horror and Exploitation Films, distributed on Video Cassette that were Criticized for Their Violent Content by the Press/Media, Social Commentators, and Various Religious Organizations.

                   

Synopsis: Starving New York Artist Reno Miller is  Struggling to Pay His Bills, while Obsessed with Painting His Masterpiece (which He hopes to Sell to Art Dealer and Gallery Owner Dalton for Rent Money), and Caring for His two Roommates Carol the Divorced BiSexual and Her Drug Addicted Girlfriend Pamela. When the New Wave Punk Band Tony Coca-Cola and The Roosters move into Reno’s Building Playing Music Nonstop Day and Night, Reno can’t Sleep and is Slowly Driven Insane. As Reno Descends into Madness He takes to Stalking  the Streets of the City after Dark, and Gruesomely Killing Homeless Derelicts with a Power Drill.

Enjoy.

We Hope You enjoyed this Tale of Insanity and Homicidal Tendencies  as Much as We Did.

FYB’s Saturday Night Controversial Cinema: FREAKSHOW!

FYB is Proud to Present the CONTROVERSIAL 1932 Film FREAKS!

Freaks is a GROTESQUE Horror Movie about REVENGE Produced and Directed by Tod Browning. The Original Version of the Film with a Running Time of 90 Minutes was Considered TOO SHOCKING TO BE RELEASED!!! Several Scenes had to be Cut resulting in a Running time of 64 Minutes. The Original Version NO LONGER EXISTS!

Despite the EXTENSIVE CUTS, The Movie was NEGATIVELY RECEIVED by Audiences (recording a Loss of $164,000) and The Film Remained an Object of EXTREME CONTROVERSY! Today the Scenes that were Removed are Considered Lost.

FREAKS was considered so CONTROVERSIAL it Ended Tod Browning’s Career due to the Fact that after FREAKS Release NO ONE in Hollywood Wanted to Work For or With Him. This was Greatly in part Due to Browning’s use of REAL LIFE Circus Shade Show Performers/Acts. This was Perceived by the Film Industry and by Members of the Public as a TOO GRAPHIC, DISTASTEFUL, AND EXPLOITIVE Display of Humans with the SEVEREST PHYSICAL DISABILITIES. By 1932 Freak Shows had Lost Their Popularity among the Public and had Become Looked Down On as Low Entertainment. Also Disabled People were now Subjected to Sympathy/Pity rather than Gawking and Ridicule.

   

FREAKS became the ONLY MGM FILM Ever to be PULLED FROM RELEASE Before Completing its Domestic Engagements (Which Means They Pulled it From Theaters). Because the Film was thought to be OVERLY EXPLOITIVE, FREAKS was BANNED in SEVERAL COUNTRIES, and in the United Kingdom FREAKS was BANNED FOR 30 YEARS!

Some Reviewers Went on Record Stating:

“Any One Who considers this Entertainment should be Placed in the Pathological Ward (Psych Ward) in some Hospital” -Harrison’s Reports

“There is NO EXUSE for this Picture. It took a Weak Mind to Produce and it takes a STRONG STOMACH to Look at It.” -The Kansas City Star

“(FREAKS) is an OUTRAGEOUS ONSLAUGHT upon the Feelings, the Senses, the Brains, and Stomachs of an Audience.” The Hollywood Reporter

Plot Summery: Circus Dwarves Hans and Frieda and Engaged to be Married. They Work in a Tight-Knit Community of “Freaks” that includes a “Human Torso”, a Pair of Conjoined Twins, a “Half Boy”, and Other Assorted Characters (Who were Actual Sideshow Performers Too). The Conniving Gold Digger Trapeze Artist Cleopatra a “Normal” , learns that Hans has a Large Inheritance, and She Seduces Him for His Fortune.

At the Wedding Feast after They Marry, Cleopatra is Offered Initiation into the Freak’s Community. However She Rejects the Freaks and Turns against Hans. Soon After , the Freaks learn that Cleopatra and Her Boyfriend, the Strongman Hercules, have begun POISONING Hans.

In RETALIATION for this Attempted MURDER, the Freaks ATTACK Cleopatra and Hercules in a Climactic Rainstorm Chase Scene. In The End Cleopatra and Hercules learn What Being a True Freak Really Means!
