We love trailer compilations of vintage grindhouse sleaze (think 42nd Street Forever) here at Skin Central, so we're all fired up and ready to enlist in the Trailer War, a new feature-length compendium of the bizarre, the outrageous and the totally tasteless from the archives of Austin, TX's own American Genre Film Archive.
The AGFA is producing Trailer War in partnership with Drafthouse Films, who earlier this year brought us The FP (2012) and Klown (2010). And in case you're still unclear about what kind of mind-melting, spine-shattering, blood-boiling experience you're in for, we quote from the official press release:
"From the high flying, explosive metal mayhem of STUNT ROCK to THUNDER COPS’ disembodied flying head chaos, each 3 minute masterpiece is like a beckoning portal to another, more exciting dimension. It’s a crippling overdose of towering flames, mechanized destruction, lurking fear, poor sexual choices and spiritual devastation on an apocalyptic scale. You might want to have a cornea donor standing by just in case…because THIS IS GOING TO BURN!"
Following a theatrical tour in early December, Trailer War hits DVD and Blu-ray on December 18; the DVD/Blu-ray comes complete with an interview with filmmaker Joe Dante, a former trailer artiste for sleaze master Roger Corman whose Trailers from Hell site we've covered on this very blog.
But will there be skin, you ask? How about you check out the censored, but still NSFW trailer and tell us, smart guy?
Pre-order Trailer War at the Drafthouse Films site now!
We've got some real eye-openers this week on DVD and Blu-ray that are guaranteed to make you slap yourself silly: First, Ali Cobrin and her all-natural 34Ds round out the cast of American Reunion (2012); then, Anna Paquin's nude debut in the cult classic Margaret (2007) finally sees the light of Blu-ray. Also nude on Blu-ray this week, Erin Cummings, Minae Noji and America Olivo lead a cast of violent vixens that would make Russ Meyer proud in Bitch Slap (2009), and while we're on a grindhouse tip, be sure to check out titillating twins Mary and Madeline Collinson as they bare their Twins of Evil (1971).
Also nude on Blu-ray this week, The 41-Year-Old Virgin Who Knocked Up Sarah Marshall and Felt Superbad About It (2010) shows more skin than the films it parodies, and on DVD True Story of a Woman in Jail: Continues (1975) is as Sapphic and graphic as the title implies.
More after the jump!
Thank you, bigwigs of Hollywood, for giving us an early gift on this lovely long weekend. Not only do we get Labor Day off, but we have some truly stellar skinnage to choose from at theaters this weekend. God bless America!
The American
Or should we say, God bless The American (2010)? George Clooney movies are almost always worth the price of admission, but none as much as his brand-new outing. Just one minute in, Irina Bjorklund makes with the ass, and then in four separate scenes scattered throughout the rest of the flick, we have hot Italian dish Violante Placido baring boobs and pubes! Violante's mom is Stefania Sandrelli, who famously got topless in The Godfather, so you know that she got tit from her mama!
Machete
Want some blood with your boobs? Check out Robert Rodriguez's new grindhouse-style film, Machete (2010). The rumors floating around that Lindsay Lohan bares her freckly funbags are depressingly exaggerated, but she and costars Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez still look stabbingly hot. And we get plenty of nudity from redhead Alicia Rachel Marek as Lilo's MILFy mom, and nudecomer Mayra Leal, showing T&A while pulling a cell phone out of her hot body's "natural pocket", a clip we have here at MrSkin.com! You've got to see to believe!
Going the Distance
If your gal wants to drag you to a chick flick, Drew Barrymore's new dramedy, Going the Distance (2010) is also out. Sadly, we don't see Drew's two, but Barrymore has definitely bared more in her film career. This former child star proved she was all woman in Bad Girls and Boys on the Side, but her creme de la skin is some boneriffic horror hooters in Doppelganger: The Evil Within (1993). It's bloody hot!
Early buzz suggested that our favorite freckled ex-woman in prison, Lindsay Lohan, would be nude in the new Robert Rodriguez grindhouse send-up, Machete (2010).
The movie doesn't open until Friday, but one of our trust Skin scouts hit an early screening today to get the skinny.
Final skinalysis? There's nudity, but NONE of it is from Lindsay or costar Jessica Alba!
Before you punch a wall in frustration, the good news is that we were able to get a clip the first scene in Machete, which features the screamingly hot, very Eva Mendes-like Mayra Leal showing ass-tounding naked boobs and ass when she stabs Danny Trejo with the titular weapon, then pulls a cell phone out of her (sadly hidden) hair pie. Members can view the clip here!
As for the rest of the flick, we have some hot hooter action under a waterfall from sexy Alicia Rachel Marek and some uncredited babes. Click "more" for the lusty low-down!
Producer Eli Roth’s The Last Exorcism (2010) may be scaring up big business, but Mr. Skin will always have the fondest of feelings for the demonic possession blow-out that originally bedeviled the world in 1974: The Exorcist.
It’s not because The Exorcist is so intensely frightening. It’s because that horror classic spewed forth the career of Linda Blair, who grew up (and out) fast to become on of the most skin-tense naked B-movie bombshells of the ’80s.
So however hard and high The Last Exorcism may make your hair stand on end, you can always let original Exorcist babe Linda Blair turn you into the horniest of devils with her big-breasted bare exposure in six ractackular roles, including Savage Streets (1984), Night Patrol (1984), Red Heat (1985) and, of course, Chained Heat (1983) — which only happens to be the greatest Women in Prison movie of all time!
Mr. Skin members get every nude pic and video, but all comers should definitely check out the skin-depth feature article Linda Bare, for a career overview on the hot history of Linda Blair nude.
For a peek at Linda Blair naked and lesbo loving it up with Emmanuelle star Sylvia Kristel nude, just click "More".
Sleazoid Express creator Bill Landis was a pioneering publisher who really did change the world (for the better), an endlessly imaginative writer, a performer in hardcore films during theatrical porn’s Golden Age and a projectionist who worked Times Square’s glorious toilet-bowl theaters.
At the same time, Bill Landis was also a miserable junkie, a hyper-paranoid head-case, and a world-class pain-in-the-ass.
And now Bill Landis is dead, at age 49, from a heart attack.
I miss him already. And I always will. Read all about it after the jump.

Among its many repulsive and/or revolutionary revelations, the classic splatter blow-out Pieces (1982) proved (as its ads touted) that “you don’t have to go to Texas for a chainsaw massacre.”
Now the heroic exploitation-movie archeologists at Grindhouse Releasing bring that very same chainsaw massacre right to you via a new, gloriously realized two-disc special edition Pieces DVD.
Meanwhile, at a midnight showing quite possibly near you (with more on the way), Repo! The Genetic Opera (2007) is packing screwed-up teenage asses into theater seats like no cult sensation in recent memory (or mammaries).
Repo’s got blood, it’s got guts, it's got body-fluid thrill freaks looking for a kick, and it’s got a Gothily tarted-up Paris Hilton.
McBeardo reports on the considerable sex appeal of all of the above after the jump. Just click on Paris Hilton's nipple.

"What Pam Grier was to blaxploitation movies, what Bruce Lee was to kung fu movies, what Burt Reynolds was to good-ol'-boy movies, Rainbeaux Smith was to cheerleader movies. She truly has, without trying whatsoever, a Marilyn Monroe quality. She doesn't look like Monroe at all; she just has that kind of vacantness. She's not so much acting as she is existing. Imagine Marilyn Monroe as kind of a '70s hippie junky, then you kind of have Rainbeaux Smith." -- Quentin Tarentino
And on this date in 2002, the remarkable beauty who loomed so ethereal that the world naturally called her “Rainbeaux” departed this mortal coil.
