31 Horror Films To Watch This October

By building an American Chicken Bunker on sacred Indian burial ground, big business has united displaced Native Americans and chickens sent to the “Concentration coup”, resulting in the most lethal combination of Indians and chickens since Tandoori was introduced to the American people.

Yes, it’s the first movie where chicken zombies go on the rampage, but Poultrygeist has so much more going for it, including some surprisingly barbed satire and the kind of gore-drenched slapstick you simply don’t see in multiplex horror movies. There’s also musical numbers.

Being a “fowl movement” from Troma, the studio that gave us The Toxic Avenger, means that whenever testicles aren’t being fried and eaten and the talking Mexican sandwich (don’t ask) is offscreen, characters are bursting into song. Typical of the numbers included is Slow Fast Food Love, a singalong anthem performed by topless women.
