12 WTF Horror Films You Need To See Before You Die

Directed by the incomparable Claudio Fragasso (Troll 2), Leviatan delivers everything you’d expect from an Italian cheapie – bad acting, terrible dubbing and a nonsense plot. 

Cleverly cast against type as a rock star, Alice Cooper returns to his hometown after a twenty-year hiatus, his arrival coinciding with a spate of grisly homicides. “It’s difficult to tell which bit came from where,” says a helpful Sheriff. “Why, what was left you could put in a plastic bag!”

This is too close to home for Coop, whose father was stricken with “a heart disease that transforms the patient into some kind of madman, a beast that goes howling at the moon” and went on his own rampage twenty years earlier. A torch-bearing mob eventually curtailed his lunar activities but, naturally enough, their ancestors don’t believe in coincidences and arrive at the singer’s house with their guns drawn, so picture their surprise when the real monster turns up to pick them off one by one. Before you ask, yes, it does lead to an Alice VS Monster Dog showdown.
