The Shark Hunter (1979) in c/bmoviebonanza@lemmy.world
[–] LaurenceWolse 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

An excellent treasure-hunt adventurer from Italy's most underappreciated genre director, Enzo G. Castellari. The Shark Hunter's greatest strength is also its greatest weakness: there are a lot of real human/shark interactions in the movie, and some of it looks dubious from an animal cruelty point of view.

This should be available for streaming on Tubi in North America (or possibly only in the U.S.) Severin Films will also be releasing a blu-ray of it sometime in the coming months. #supportphysicalmedia πŸ’Ώ

Happy Shark Weekβ„’, y'all!

Cannonball (1976) in c/bmoviebonanza@lemmy.world
[–] LaurenceWolse 18 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (5 children)

Much more rooted in reality than Roger Corman's & Paul Bartel's other road race movie, Death Race 2000, but it's still a fun enough time. Cannonball stars many of the same people as the before-mentioned movie, plus it has bit parts for Allan Arkush, Roger Corman, Joe Dante, Sylvester Stallone and even Martin Scorsese.

Awesome! I still need to check out The Bad Batch, but pairing this with Cherry 2000 or Tank Girl should work very well.

Circuitry Man (1990) in c/bmoviebonanza@lemmy.world

A really solid dystopian roadtrip movie starring Jim Metzler, Vernon Wells and Dana Wheeler-Nicholson.

Circuitry Man should be available for streaming in North American on Amazon.

And it's actually a really good entry point into these movies.

RbaA is a great movie: thought up by Wong Jing, directed by Andrew Lau (the filmmaker responsible for the OG The Departed), and starring Simon Yam and Chingmy Yau.

.. outside of gore/torture/rape/cannibalism etc..

Well, it's going to be really difficult to recommend anything if those are your requirements, because that's basically what the classification is for: anything that is unsuitable for non-adults.

I'm sure there are movies that fit your requirements, but I can't think of anything rn on the top of my head. πŸ™ƒ

The Nostril Picker (aka The Changer) (1988) in c/bmoviebonanza@lemmy.world

A wacky B-grade "slasher" with a fantasy twist. Go in with the right (lowered) expectations, and you'll have a good time.
