Street Trash (1987)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


When I first started watching this gem of a flick, I was under the impression that it was a Troma production (if you're not familiar with Troma studios, they are a "35-year old independent movie studio" that prides themselves on b-movies chock full of fart jokes, laughably fake gratuitous violence, T&A galore, and underneath it all, some social commentary). While Street Trash has all these qualities (plus an appearance from Pat Ryan of The Toxic Avenger and Class of Nuke 'Em High fame), it isn't Troma after all. In fact, it's better than any Troma film I've seen thus far.

The story is essentially a bunch of random subplots involving homeless bums.

What I Learned:
-60 year old rotgut makes you melt into toxic waste

-nerds always die violent deaths in horror/comedy b-movies

-Burt ALREADY purchased it!
