The DPP 39 (UK Video Nasties)
Favs/dislikes: 23:0. These are the 39 controversial films banned from sale in the UK by the Department of Public Prosecutions (DPP) under the Video Recordings Act of 1984. The films were banned in response to a right-wing media fury spearheaded by the campaigner Mary Whitehouse (1910-2001) who popularised Sunday Times journalist Peter Chippendale's phrase "Video Nasty" despite never having watched any of the films themselves. In the years that followed, several of these movies were released either cut or uncut, whilst the others have either not been granted a certificate; or no distributor has since requested one. Not included here are: - films originally banned at the same time as the Video Nasties, but never prosecuted, such as [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/the+evil+dead/]The Evil Dead[/url]. - films often believed to have been part of the DPP 39, including [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/a+clockwork+orange/]A Clockwork Orange[/url], [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/the+exorcist/]The Exorcist[/url], [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/straw+dogs/]Straw Dogs[/url], [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/ilsa+she+wolf+of+the+ss/]Ilsa She-Wolf of the SS[/url] and [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/the+texas+chain+saw+massacre/]The Texas Chain Saw Massacre[/url] - all of which were unavailable in the UK for other reasons. The DPP 39 list is a matter of quintessential bad taste. In most cases, don't expect great movies, but check out what the fuss was all about!

The Mammoth Book of Slasher Movies Chronology
Favs/dislikes: 23:0. Lifted from the Chronology of Movies section of Peter Normanton's "Mammoth Book of Slasher Movies," which would more accurately be described as an overview of gore/exploitation movies than a history of slasher movies. This replicates the order of the chronology as printed in the book, so all examples of movies being out of chronological order in the below list are mistakes made in the original publication. -

Gothic: The Dark Heart of Film
Favs/dislikes: 26:0. In October 2013, the British Film Institute unveiled an exhibition chronicling the history of dark and macabre films. In an ambitious project, the BFI unveiled a collection of a large number of films spanning four categories, bringing these films to British cinemas over a four month period. Films are arranged chronologically by theme. The Four Parts: - Monstrous (1-26) - The Dark Arts (27-48) - Haunted (49-71) - Love is a Devil (72-99) Although this exhibition includes a large number of plays, professional talks, documentaries, television series' and shorts, this list contains only the feature films presented in the exhibition. -

Fantastic Cinema (Peter Nicholls) 700 fantasy/horror/sci-fi films
Favs/dislikes: 28:0. This extensive appendix in Nicholl's book lists 700 fantasy/horror/sci-fi films,1902-1983. Note that it is not a 'best of' list. While some films are must-see classics, others are z-grade junk - there's even a few TV-movies in the mix. Nicholls may be academic but he's no snob - like Danny Peary, he believes in seeing all types of movies. Most of these appended films are reviewed in capsules (the others have already been discussed in more detail in the main body of the book). He gives titles a dual rating, one for quality (stars) and another for squeamishness (skulls). Interestingly, Nicholls embraces a broad range of movies in his critique, including the James Bond series (because of its sci-fi overtones with gadgetry, supervillians, etc) and films with a surreal, psychological, or dreamlike approach. You'd have to be a true film fan to watch the wide range of titles here - everything from Monty Python and the Muppets to Russian silent films and Italian zombie gore. -

Pink Films
Favs/dislikes: 29:2. Pink film (ピンク映画 Pinku eiga or Pink eiga?) is a style of Japanese softcore pornographic theatrical film. Films of this genre first appeared in the early 1960s, and dominated the Japanese domestic cinema from the mid-1960s through the mid-1980s. In the 1960s, the pink films were largely the product of small, independent studios. In the 1970s, some of Japan’s major studios, facing the loss of their theatrical audience, took over the pink film. With their access to higher production-values and talent, some of these films became critical and popular successes. Though the appearance of the AV (adult video) took away most of the pink film audience in the 1980s, films in this genre are still being produced.”—Wikipedia List created by Erdiawan Putra -
