Movie Poster Madness: "You Are In a Heap of Trouble, Boy!" edition


It's no secret, I love horror films in which the hounded are men rather than women.   I don't know why, but it always tickles me to see a guy victimized as opposed to a woman...then again, I guess women will always look better in lacy gowns while running through the misty moors - though I'd much prefer to see a shirtless hunk running bare ass through a cemetery, but hey, that's just me.  Be that as it may, let's take a peek at some film posters for movies in which the victim was a dude.
Women? What women? This one was all about three guys being terrorized by a tall creepy dude and a bunch of his hooded henchmen!   Several dreadful, nonsensical sequels followed - but we continued on the further adventures of "BOY" (aka Mike), and his former ice cream pushing pal, Reggie. 
Don't be fooled by Shirley MacLaine's name and mug staring at you from this one ... The Possession of Joel Delaney is all about Perry King being possessed by the soul of a Hispanic serial killer and wreaking havoc while doing so.  Plus, King was so damn HAWT in this movie, you'll need a cool drink.  More than anything, this is one of those films that we've seem to forget about, and that's a shame, because it's a pretty effective little thriller.
First was Joel, and now it's David's turn!  This one is a terrific jump fest - say, what do you know? Here's my review!  
Less a horror film, and more of a psychological thriller, 1975's The Reincarnation of Peter Proud hold's a special place in my dark little heart as it provided me, as a young gay boy, with one of my first objects of lust, Michael Sarrazin.  I am sure most of you have no idea who Michael Sarrazin is, and that's OK, as he's not done much of anything in years.  Oh, did I mention that he's bare ass in some of this film?  Well, now I did!

Fresh Slabs of Meat: Horror Movie Hunks (11)



Victim: Jody Pearson

Film: Phantasm


Hunk Factor: Where to begin?  The blow dried, head of feathered hair?  The "aw - shucks" smile, the Brooks Brother's suit he wears while wandering about the Morningside Mausoleum...

...or the way he can rock that leather jacket while looking under the hood of a car...

...or the way he gracefully rides a bicycle down the street, gliding along like a zephyr...

...and how about that devil-may-care-rock-and-roll-attitude...

...It's that attitude that made him a hit with the ladies; even if said lady was a shape shifting/demon/alien/something or other...

...you have to love who guy who can get a woman's underwear off with his teeth, that's an art!

Did I mention that perky little arse of his?  Boy Howdy!

Dispatched by:  Well, actually he's already dead, see his kid brother has been dreaming everything and...oh well, watch the movie to figure it out.

Played by: Bill Thornbury
