Road trip horror recommendations?

Hi everyone.

Me & my girlfriend are in the habit of watching a horror flick every Sunday night, only we're running out of ideas of what to watch next!

Can you recommend any horror films please? No matter how cheesy / bad / dire, we're not bothered!

Preferably, we'd like the road-trip-gone-bad type of horro, but it must have:

- Plenty of gore.
- Plenty of nakedness - i.e. lots of breasts!
- More gore.
- More nakedness.
- Even more gore!
- More breasts!

Anything you can think of would be great! Thanks!

Maybe you can suggest a threesome then 8).

p.s - Sorry I cannot help otherwise. I'm sure others will.

Rather than shit films, I'll give you some good ones.

Cronenberg:-
Rabid
The Brood
Videodrome
Scanners

As for crap ones, films from Eli Roth should fulfill all of your criteria, although you've probably already seen them.

Yep, we've seen Eli Roth's films. Barbara Nedeljakova in Hostel is GORGEOUS. :P

I'll try to find those films you suggested, Eva. Thanks! :)

As for gore, the August Underground films are pretty much the bleeding edge from the current independent scene.

Scanners is excellent and I'm not a horror fan.

Why do you keep posting with just smilies? Nothing I said was funny.

Videodrome is excellent too. Braindead is very funny, an absolute hoot and I'm certainly not a horror person :D
I'm sure you've seen the Evil Dead movies right IM? :)

Hmm, interesting question as horror can be such a matter of taste (witness the discussions about Dario Argento elsewhere on this board ;) ).

I attend the Frigthfest film festival each August in London (link) and the ones from last year that I think are worth seeing (according to your nudity and gore criteria) are :
Hatchet - old school gore and nudity
Storm Warning - again, gore, from the director of Urban Legends
Teeth - Definitely not a date movie, but quite good in a black humour way
Wrong Turn 2 - not a lot to do with the first one in terms of style, but loads of gore (within the first 3 minutes a girl is split in half with an axe !)

There's a forum with threads for each film accessible off their homepage if you wanna have a look.

I also caught the all nighter later in the year and there were a couple of french films in that there were extremely gory :
Frontière(s)
À l'intérieur
Again, I'd say Inside is definitely not a date movie !

edit - I forgot that the year before I caught an all day event that they had for showcasing Hostel that had a road-trip gore type film that I enjoyed, but had a lot of slagging off :
Reeker

The wikipedia page for the frightfest events also give full details of everythng that they've organised :
