Starring: Alex McArthur, Andy Romano, Deborah Van Valkenburg |

This version of Rampage was originally slated for release in 1987, but financial difficulties of DeLaurentiis Entertainment Group delayed the release in the US. DEG ultimately filed for bankruptcy, and Rampage was shelved. Five years later, Miramax purchased the film, and scheduled a 1992 release. Yet the version released by Miramax is substantially different than the original version, which was only released in Europe. Rampage centers on the trial of Charles Reece, a serial killer arrested for murdering and drinking the blood of his victims. The state prosecutor, who is haunted by the death of his daughter by pneumonia, has always been against the death penalty, but is persuaded by a new D.A. to push for capital punishment while the defense team claims their client is not guilty by reason of insanity. The differences are numerous in this film, including added subplots and a completely different ending. This version of the film is considered Friedkin's grimmest work, showing a screwed up world. Fearing audiences would be turned off by the film, it was re-edited to illustrate how screwed up the legal system is. |

Maybe you've heard the prank call on the Howard Stern radio show - some smart-ass keeps calling a bar asking for silly names (Bill Loney, Sal Ammy, etc.) and the old guy who answers the phone eventually goes nuts on the caller. Well, director Chris Gore has taken the audio recording of these phone calls and added still images of Lawrence Tierney and others to the audio to create a highly entertaining short film! What we have here is only the first half of the movie, which is reportedly the only part worth a look. Apparently there was another 17 minutes of follow up footage shot for this which showed the pranksters continuing their harassment of the old barkeep until he reaches his breaking point. Let us know if you have the complete version of this, we'd like to add it to the collection! |

Drag racing legend Richard 'Big Red' Friedman is severely injured in an accident that effectively ends his racing career. After a botched operation, he becomes addicted to adrenaline, which inspires him to lure unwitting folks to a secluded auto parts shop where he and a gang of accomplices kill and drain the adrenaline from their victims. Said adrenaline is then used to power a customized drag racing simulator, which pumps the stuff directly into Big Red's veins to quench his addiction. Red takes up with movie star/drag racing groupie Samantha 'Rose' Canyon, who joins in his adrenaline addiction. As time passes, Red and his mate drift into an increasingly druggy, hallucinatory existence. Eventually Rose becomes pregnant and a call is made to an old boyfriend. He rushes to Red's house, convinced Rose is in labor, only to discover that their addictions have turned Red and Rosey into hideous monstrosities, complete with a pair of equally gruesome mutant infanfts milling around inside Rosey's womb. |

||
|
Superb acting and directing enhance this film based on the true story of Ricky Kasso, a New York teenager who turned to drugs and satanism to escape his own problems. His downward spiral is brilliantly captured here as he kills in the name of Satan, and takes his own life in his prison cell. Shocking and disturbing, and even more shocking is the fact that this movie has not been released. This film tells the same story that Jim Van Bebber's My Sweet Satan was based on. |
