Thanks to its blend of cannibalism and comedy, Bud Townsend’s 1972 horror film is not only tongue-in-cheek but tongue-in-stomach. The Australian film’s plot concerns a fresh young college student who checks into a bed and breakfast not realizing that she’s the breakfast. Townsend’s movie was one of the benefactors of the 80’s home video boom where it made over six appearances under different titles including Terror on the Menu.

What a delightfully freakish treat I received when I started watching this early 1970s gritty flick! When I first turned this on, I was expecting utter rubbish but to my surprise it was nice. It has a similar gritty nature to same year release “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.” Ironically, this movie was released months before the latter film as it also involves a backwoods family. This movie has alternate titles in record such as “The “Folks at Red Wolf Inn” and “Terror House.” It’s not widely known and has very limited releases. If you happen to discover an old copy, you shall be in a rare breed of owning a release!
The plot involves spring breaker Regina (Linda Gillen), who receives a letter informing her that she won a getaway leisurely vacation at a small by-the-ocean hotel resort. She is immediately rushed there quickly...

Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" isn't the first incarnation of Lewis Carroll's classic story to appear in theaters, and it certainly won't be the last. Watching the "Beetlejuice" and "Corpse Bride" director take a stab at one of the most surreal oddities in children's literature is a bit like handing pyromaniac a match and the keys to a fireworks warehouse. Burton has more than 150 years of history for film goers to judge his adaptation of "Alice" against. Here are five productions, movies and otherwise, that have shown what unsettling undertones lurk in Carroll's tale.
"Alice in Wonderland" (1976)
Directed by Bud Townsend
Roger Ebert called this oddity "fairly mild, as X movies go." What we have here is the most famous erotic musical to claim "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" as its inspiration. The skin flick hurdled the bar for bizarre by turning Tweedledum and Tweedledee into an uncomfortably close brother and sister pairing,...
