10 Hidden Gem Body Horror Movies

J. Michael Muro's Street Trash hammers home two points. Firstly, drinking is bad. Secondly, if you are going to booze it up, be sure to steer clear of the cheap stuff.

When a small-time Brooklyn liquor store owner finds a batch of cheap alcohol called Tenafly Viper, he decides the best way to get rid of this booze is to sell it for cheap to the local homeless community. Over 60 years old and way past its 'best before' date, this liquor runs through anyone who drinks it. Like, literally - with the drink's acid-like properties causing it to melt those who sup on the grog.

Full of some nicely mushy demises, Street Trash never takes itself entirely seriously - after all, it is a film based around booze that melts bones and flesh - and maybe does feel a little of its time, but it's for sure a fun picture that has certain elements of social commentary and satire at play.

To its credit, the death sequences and SFX work on display here in Street Trash also hold up remarkably well 24 years after its initial release.
