Nov 28, 2014Filipino Exploitation Film/Mutant Monsters
The first of the Blood Island films, a classic of Filipino exploitation cinema. Although not as polished as later efforts, this serves up all the requisite cheesy monsters, mad scientists and gratuitous toplessness you expect

The original Filipino exploitation classic, this pumps the 1940s mad scientist film up with gore, toplessness and tropical locations. A reasonable hit but surprisingly dull and sedate despite

Apr 3, 2013Filipino Exploitation Film/Mad Scientist
Third of the Filipino-shot Blood Island films. This has a slow first half before getting to what we expect of a Filipino monster movie - an overacting mad scientist, a cheesy monster, schlocky gore and gratuitous toplessness
