Grindhouse Pizzeria - "Basket Case"

  • Summary

  • On Episode 28 of our show "Grindhouse Pizzeria" which is dedicated to all things encompassing various Grindhouse, Drive-In, and Exploitation genres; we will be taking on and dissecting what we here consider to be one of the all time great exploitation flicks with 1982's "Basket Case". Directed by Frank Henenlotter (Brain Damage, Bad Biology and Frankenhooker) and starring Kevin VanHentenryck. It's a gruesome and ghastly tale of a young man and the formerly conjoined and murderous twin brother that he carries around in a wicker basker around 1980's NYC! This savage story of Duane and twisted brother Belial even spawned two infamous sequels. Our discussion is headed off by our regular hosts Tom Komisar and Cameron Scott! Join the two of them as they take a deep dive dissection of this gritty exploitation effort! Come on in at the Grindhouse Pizzeria, pull up a chair, and grab yourself a slice!

    "They didn't want him to live. But he fooled them. He didn't die, he just got stronger."
