Arrow Video’s Microwave Massacre is out today on Blu-ray and Bloody Disgusting has gotten an exclusive clip!
This clip is the opening credits to the film and it lets you now exactly what you’re in for, which is some low-grade 80’s sleaze. While the clip doesn’t give you much in the way of story, well nothing in the way of story really, I’m pretty sure it gives you enough to determine whether or not this is a movie for you. The majority of the clip is either focused on the chest or butt of a girl as she walks down the street. So yeah, you know right away what you’re getting. God bless the 80’s!
Microwave Massacre [Blu-ray + DVD]
THEY CAME FOR DINNER…TO FIND THEY WERE IT!!Microwave Massacre stars legendary stand-up comedian and actor Jackie Vernon as Donald, a disgruntled construction worker whose wife’s predilection for haute cuisine drives him to cannibalism.
Donald unwittingly stumbles upon a solution to his two major problems in his life – his nagging wife and his lack of decent meals – when, one night, he bludgeons his better half to death with a pepper grinder in a drunken rage. Thinking on his feet, Donald dismembers the body and sets about microwaving the remains, which turn out to be rather delicious. Trouble is, now he has a taste for human flesh that needs satisfying…
Eschewing all notions of good taste, Wayne Berwick’s Microwave Massacre is a deliciously depraved exercise in political incorrectness that has gone on to gain a cult following thanks to a characteristically deadpan performance from Vernon, who delivers such choice lines as “I’m so hungry I could eat a whore.” Vegetarians need not apply!
