Retardead (NR: 2008)
Director: Rick Popko, Dan West. Starring: Rick Popko … Deputy Rick / Porn Actress / Doctor / Ripper Detective; Tony Adams … Agent Russo; Michael Allen … Institute Director; Shamika Baker … Living Dead Girl; Jello Biafra … Mayor Anton Sinclaire; Scott Britton … F.B.I agent; and others.
The film’s name defines the quality of this flick … in the same genre as Tromo films, a really bad zombie flick gone poop. In a sense it is Rick Popko and Dan West’s sequel to their faecal flick Monsturd. Its about the mad Dr. Stern who is performing whacked experiments on special needs students that turns them into flesh craving zombies. The town descends into chaos dealing with the undead. Poor effects and low budget. The directors actually star in the film as the idiotic deputies. It has its moments of humor for some, but didn’t captivate my attention much at all. Its gory, in a cheap fake sense, and vile. 1.5 stars out of 5.

(R/NR/X: 1975) * Director: Henri Pachard. Starring: Keith Luckett … Gordon Jr., James Walters … Newscaster, Harrison Phillips … Gordon Gordon, Norman Fields … Clifford Bradley, Cheryl ‘Rainbeaux’ Smith … ‘Twinkle Twat Girl’, and many more …
Another film I wouldn’t have seen if I wasn’t on a movie marathon in watching films that my cousin Cheryl ‘Rainbeaux’ Smith acted in (Twinkle Twat commercial). This is a Troma film classic. For its time, it was rated NR or X, but in this day and age is rated R. A 1975 softcore sex comedy directed by Ron Sullivan under the pseudonym Henri Pachard that is currently distributed by Troma Entertainment. Its all about a mad Director who thinks there is a conspiracy in the government to suppress humankind of the sexual urge and expression. Ticked off by one of his film studio’s movie critics, he’s out to get his television broadcast station WKLITT to broadcast a stag film award show. Presented in the film are several vignettes of stag films intermingled with the preparation of the show, clips from fictional movies, and parodies of sex product commercials. It had its humorous moments, but overall failed to enchant me. Rating: 2.75 stars out of 5.
