Why did 72 of the goriest, most gruesome and grotesque horror movies suddenly…disappear? How did cult thrillers, shockers, slashers and horrors go from “available now!” to renters and owners winding up in UK prisons? And what happened in the early 80s that got priests, parents and politicians on the march to “Ban This Filth!” But more importantly…where can I get these movies?! A hilarious deep dive into the forgotten world of banned VHS horror movies from the 60s, 70s and 80s that fell foul of the British censors during the ”Video Nasty” moral panic. Comedian, novelist and pub-quiz host Richard Asplin takes you through spoilerific plot details, kill by kill, looking at the often comedic carnage that lurks between the credits in some of the most infamous banned horrors of the era.Novelist, broadcaster and comedian Richard Asplin has appeared on Radio 5 Live & LBC, guested on ’Smershpod’ as well as writing for The Guardian and The Sunday Telegraph.
