This week we’re back in New York City (surprise, surprise) and it seems to be a rather slim-pickings week, at least based on the ads (perhaps this is an indication that hotter stuff was being shown but not yet advertised). As always, enjoy.









The following is based on a recent post I made on the Something Weird Video Facebook group, which in effect is a review of the SWV release of THE FILTH SHOP (1969) and two of the other shorts on that “disk”. I’ve kept it mostly intact, although I do add some location-specific pictures and a…
