16 Weirdest Horror Films You've Never Seen
2. Killer Condom (1996)
Adapted from Ralf König’s 1987 comic book Kondom Des Grauens, Killer Condom (aka Kondom des Grauens) details the final chapters in the career of Luigi Mackeroni (Udo Samel), a hard-nosed bear of a cop who foils a conservative Christian conspiracy to castrate the degenerate denizens of New York City using genetically-engineered prophylactics dentata. In other words, deadly condoms are running a muck in NYC.
Probably the most interesting thing about this film is that Swiss surrealist and Alien designer H.R. Giger worked on the project as a "creative consultant." Allegedly, Giger came up with the look of the titular creature and also conceived some of the film's more off the wall set pieces (i.e. the Penis Dartboard).
Killer Condom is one of those rare gems of trash cinema that manages to deliver its exploitative schlock with adept filmmaking and a cohesive and pointed aesthetic. It traverses the dark alleyways lined with the soot of urban decay in a search of a quick fix, and through its camp and satire it delivers the goods that trash cinema junkies desperately crave.
