If you like your slasher movies on the cheesier side, Microwave Massacre has a whole deli board brimming with cheddar, brie, stilton, mozzarella, and even some Babybel for you.
Released in 1979, at the heart of Microwave Massacre is Donald, a middle-aged construction worker who grows increasingly unhappy with the fancy, elaborate food his wife May cooks him. While all of his work buddies turn up to the construction site with baloney sandwiches, Donald opens his lunchbox to find such delicacies as giant crabs. This is a simple man after a simple lunch...
Rather than, y'know, making his own lunch, Donald instead opts to head to the bar to drown his sorrows, then bludgeons his wife to death when he returns home. Bizarrely, this corpse is initially left in the swanky new electric oven that May had used for Donald's lunches, before the body is chopped up, wrapped in foil, and placed in the refrigerator. When a sleepy Donald accidentally takes a bite out of one of these parcels one night, he discovers he's got quite the taste for human flesh.
From there, our lead character ends up on a killing spree, picking up women in bars and on the streets, and turning them into crowd-pleasing sandwich meat for his unknowing co-workers.
