Movie Reviews of Street Trash
Movie Review: Trash classic
Summary: 5 Stars
After all these years of suffering with bad vhs tapes, we finally have the uncut version of this "trash masterpiece" no pun intended. Great fxs and awesome camera work make for a disgusting tale of wine that melts the homeless.
Summary of Street Trash
In the sleazy foreboding world of winos derelicts and drifters in lower Manhattan two young runaways eighteen-year-old Fred (MIKE LACKEY) and his younger brother Kevin (MARK SFERRAZZA) live in a tire hut in the back of a vast auto wrecking yard. Fred is burnt-out by the forces that destroyed his family life whereas Kevin having missed much of their childhood trauma yearns to get back into society and lead a normal life. The most lethal threat to the boys is the case of Tenafly Viper in Ed s liquor store widow. Ed found the cheapo wine behind a wall in his basement. The stuff s forty years old and it s gone real bad. Anyone who drinks it melts within seconds! And it s only a dollar a bottle!! The bums are lining up for their deaths like moths at a flame and Fred standing right there amongst them.STREET TRASH is the subversive cult classic horror-comedy that rode the last wave of super-gore in the late 80s before the curtain fell on such outrageous material and we entered an era of safe R rated horror flicks and endless unoriginal remakes.Synapse Films is proud to present the 2-DVD Special Meltdown Edition of the 80s gore classic STREET TRASH. Over four years in the making this 2 DVD set contains the amazing two-hour documentary THE MELTDOWN MEMOIRS.This All-New 2-DVD Special Meltdown Edition Includes:- Anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) Transfer From the Original Camera Negatives- Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround and Original 2.0 Mono Soundtrack- Two Audio Commentaries Featuring Producer Roy Frumkes and Director James Muro- THE MELTDOWN MEMOIRS - All-New 2 Hour Documentary The History and Making of STREET TRASH!- STREET TRASH - The Original 16mm Short Film that Inspired the Movie- The Long-Lost Never-Before-Seen STREET TRASH Promotional Teaser- Behind-the-Scenes Still Gallery- Original Theatrical TrailerSystem Requirements:Run Time: 102 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?HORROR Rating:?UNRATED UPC:?654930305799 Manufacturer No:?3057Sure, Street Trash has a convoluted, ridiculous plot, but it also features bums who melt into rainbow sludge upon drinking a fermented relative of Thunderbird, Tenafly Viper. In this '80s B-movie akin to The Toxic Avenger or C.H.U.D., Fred (Mike Lackey) is the main homeless guy who distributes Viper he's lifted from the local liquor store. Once he discovers the alcohol's lethal potential, he wields it as a weapon, eventually fighting head criminal, Bronson, a psycho-killer Vietnam vet who carries a human femur bone handle knife. Side plots, such as one involving a begrudging policeman who seeks to clean up the Street Trash community housed in a junkyard, or the one featuring Wendy, the hot girl who guards runaways from the junkyard's fat, mean owner, are beside the point. Watch Street Trash for its infamous penis scene, in which a member is chopped off and tossed around in a game of keep away, or watch the film to see a man melt down into a blue pile as he's flushed down a toilet bowl. Street Trash's gore isn't so disturbing as it is comic, as are the bums' New Romantic costumes similar to Dexy's Midnight Runners in the video for their '80s hit, "Come On Eileen." Applaud Street Trash for its gaudy, horrendous splendor. Notably, this re-release contains the original Super-8 short of the film, featuring even more homemade special effects and low-grade humor.--Trinie Dalton
