 This week our journey into the history of killbilly cinema takes us to the Pacific Northwest in 1981's "Just Before Dawn" directed by William Lieberman and starring George Kennedy, Chris Lemmon & more in this film where the killbilly genre becomes one in the same with the Slashers in the year where they had their shining moment.

SHV - S15E06 - Southern Comfort (1981)

The killbilly tour de force continues, this time back to the south, specifically Louisiana, where a group of national guardsmen run afoul of a cajun community & the lines between good & evil remain sketchy. Keith Carradine & Powers Boothe star in SOUTHERN COMFORT. Plus musical guest Saviorskin returns courtesy of Horror Pain Gore Death Productions

SHV - S15E05 - Mother's Day (1980)

 The crossroad where Killbillies & slashers collide! These genres have almost been exclusively combined in modern times, but aside from the original TCM, 1980's Mother's Day was really where we see this become the norm. It is directed by the brother of Troma founder Lloyd Kaufman, Charles Kaufman in his only directorial effort with cameos from most of the Kaufman family, is a sister picture to a much more famous and influential slasher, and was so offensive and controversial it was banned in the UK for several decades. We'll talk about all that & more.

SHV - S15E04 - Rituals (1977)

 This week we prove that a Killbilly doesn't have to just be from the south as we travel to the great white north with Hal Holbrook and company for the 1977 Canadian Tax Shelter killbilly extravaganza RITUALS from 1977 (aka The Creeper).
