This Halloween night, get ready to drink some moonshine and fire off some buckshot as Double Trouble celebrates the best holiday of the year with a double bill of two hillbilly horror classics. Chainsaw duels, cannibalism, social commentary. There's something for everyone!*The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)
One of the most gonzo horror sequels of all time! Tobe Hooper teams up with Cannon Films for 80s slasher nirvana. After 12 years, the Sawyer family comes out of hiding to continue their reign of terror in the Texas countryside. This time around Leatherface finds love in a young midnight radio host, the deranged patriarch becomes a local favorite thanks to his popular chili dish, and Dennis Hopper plays a psychopathic Texas ranger out for revenge for his nephew. Bigger, crazier and bloodier then the original in every way. Which for some is negative, but here it's a positive. A sequel with a tone and style all it's own. Full of endlessly quotable lines, brutal gore and stylish production design. An 80s video store staple presented on the big screen for Halloween!
*Motel Hell (1980)
"Come for a night, stay for a nightmare!" Ida and Vincent are small motel owners who offer great service to their guests with a smile on their faces. They also just so happen to kidnap those same guests and keep them as prisoners in their special garden, to fatten them up to be made into their award winning sausages. Things are going well until the newest crop of them break free, seeking revenge on Ida and Vincent. Part black comedy, part parody of slasher movies, part domestic drama and loaded with creepy visuals. It's impossible to nail down a tone within the film. But with a wonderful performances from 'Night Of The Lepus', and 'Hell Comes To Frogtown' star Rory Calhoun and Nancy Parsons of 'Porky's' as two of the most delightful, sadistic murderers ever put to celluloid. If you haven't seen this underrated gem, you're in for a treat!
