99CR 01: 1990: Bronx Warriors
01/01/24 • 101 min
In the inaugural episode of 99 Cent Rental, brothers Bryan and Dave take a deep dive into the world of Italian exploitation movies with what is ostensibly the perfect specimen of spaghetti apocalypse movies, 1990: The Bronx Warriors. As well as being one of the better examples of the genre, it's also the debut of one of Italy's most peculiar (and tragic) stars, Mark Gregory, a young man of exceptional physique who couldn't possibly be less interested in being in movies.

30: Black Christmas
Agnes, it's me, Billy! Bryan and Dave close out their holiday season series with a real deep dive into Bob Clark's masterpiece, Black Christmas. It's the prototype for the slasher movies that followed. It's a movie stuffed with a diabolical eye for detail and unbearable tension. There's a killer so twisted and weird that you reflexively turn away. There's a cast so likable and fleshed out that you hate to see them killed. Happy holidays, from us to you. Here's a real close examination of an especially dark horror movie.

31: New Year's Evil
This week Bryan and Dave kick off the new year and hit peak holiday horror movie burnout when they go deep with the 1980 slasher movie, New Year's Evil. Cannon Group wasn't exactly known for horror movies and it'll take them a few years before they work it out but these nascent attempts to get a piece of the action during the golden age of the slasher turned out some really weird misfires and New Year's Evil is leading the charge. More like a giallo than anything else, it seems to possess a profound misunderstanding of what audiences were expecting from a slasher movie and delivers some seriously silly murder setpieces.
