Über diesen Titel

Why did 72 of the goriest, most gruesome and grotesque horror movies suddenly…disappear? How did cult thrillers, shockers, slashers and horrors go from “available now!” to renters and owners winding up in UK prisons? And what happened in the early 80s that got priests, parents and politicians on the march to “Ban This Filth!” But more importantly…where can I get these movies?! A hilarious deep dive into the forgotten world of banned VHS horror movies from the 60s, 70s and 80s that fell foul of the British censors during the ”Video Nasty” moral panic. Comedian, novelist and pub-quiz host Richard Asplin takes you through spoilerific plot details, kill by kill, looking at the often comedic carnage that lurks between the credits in some of the most infamous banned horrors of the era. Novelist, broadcaster and comedian Richard Asplin has appeared on Radio 5 Live & LBC as well as writing for The Guardian and The Sunday Telegraph.Copyright 2025 All rights reserved. Kunst
  • Let’s Get The Banned Back Together – 7 NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES 1969
    May 31 2025

    “Entertaining, sometimes brilliantly funny…” Chortle.co.uk

    When gorillas meet grapples in gruesome groovy get-up… Yes! Thank HAYSTACKS the DPP were there to remove this 1969 Mexican wrestling/monster movie mash-up from the eyes of innocents. And bless BIG DADDY I’m here to take you through it!

    Movie legend Rene Cardona directs a cast of hammy have-a-go heroes and dastardly doctors in this bloodthirsty tale where masked Lucha Libre toss opponents from the ring…while a half man half ape abomination tears Mexico City folk to bloody shreds.

    WHO is the wrestler in the red mask, and does Batman’s copyright lawyer have her details?

    WHAT is the deformed creature that stalks the indoor sets, unconvincingly sprinkled with grass cuttings?

    HAS the make-up department honestly never seen a monkey before? I mean, EVER?

    Join Richard Asplin for a horrific adventure with a bloody ape – aka Spurious George – and discover a world of wrestling, resuscitation and a riotously rubbery rampage.

  • Let's Get the Banned Back Together - 6 THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SNOW WHITE 1969
    May 25 2025

    From the studio that somehow brought you 'Downfall' (the last days of a meglomaniacal insane fascist lunatic) and 'Willy Wonka' (the last days of another meglomaniacal …oh you get the idea), probably the goriest yet campest piece of Teutonic soft-core silliness and fairy tale filth!

    While 70’s barmy Britain served up the soft, saucy sex-comedies of Robin Asquith and Fiona Richmond, from Germany we have this! What happens when classic fairy tales of princesses and enchantment meet nubile naked booby woodland rumpo along with talking dogs, dopey dwarves, sexy spells and very horny toads?

    It’s exhausting, it’s humourless, it’s joyfully ridiculous.

    Imagine Disney replaced Rachel Zegler with Kenny Everett.

    And then let Sid James & Co borrow the set of The Princess Bride for a dirty weekend.

    Add some giant comedy cocks and “einer Chuckle Bruden” and tah-daah!

    Straight from the DPP List 3 bin-bag…it’s a hilarious romp through the Grimm side of Euro-smut…episode 7 of Let’s Get The Banned Back Together – THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SNOW WHITE!
