Stink<\/strong> was a sick fixture in the sleaze\/ gore\/ exploitation flick ‘zine culture, and was produced quite regularly by it’s creator\/ editor Nick the Yak. \u00a0The issues weren’t very big, but were packed full of tons of reviews and other content lovingly dedicated to all things violent and sleazy.<\/p>\n

Nick’s reviews were unpretentious and to the point and written from the point of view of a regular slob who just wants to see entertaining movies with lots of violence and nudity (basically, most of us). \u00a0He later became a born again Christian and quit doing Stink<\/strong>, but I believe that didn’t last too long (the Christian thing- I don’t think he ever started Stink<\/strong> back up after that).<\/p>\n

This was the ‘biggest issue ever’, and at 34 pages, possibly the biggest one they ever did. It features several pages of movie reviews, plus some music and ‘zine reviews; a report on their collection of sick shorts they were shooting\/ compiling (I wonder if they ever got finished?); full page articles\/ reviews of the movies\u00a0Basket Case 2<\/em>, Beverly Hills Girls<\/i>, and\u00a0Violent Shit<\/em>; a report from that year’s ‘Fangoria Weekend of Horrors’ convention, a piece on that issue’s ‘Hellhoney’ Brinke Stevens (who I recently saw in a terrible newer straight-to-dvd quickie called\u00a0Dead Clowns<\/em>– don’t get it. \u00a0Boooooriiinnng!) and former Hellhoney Michelle Bauer (back by popular demand); part 2 of a sicko fictional tale; a comparison of\u00a0Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer<\/em>,\u00a0Nekromantik<\/em>, and\u00a0Violent Shit<\/em> (“which is sicker?”); and a couple of pages of old school grindhouse ads.<\/p>\n

I miss old ‘zines like Stink<\/strong>– we could use their candor and non-snobbish approach to reviewing movies and non-apologetic cinematic bottom feeding. \u00a0It’s fun and entertaining. \u00a0Now go watch something sleazy and so-bad-it’s-good entertaining for ole Nick the Yak.<\/p>\n
