It’s time for a new episode of the Best Horror Movie You Never Saw video series – and this one looks back at a “cheesy zombie movie” that I consider to be one of the most purely entertaining films ever made, 1988’s FleshEater (get it Here). To find out all about FleshEater, check out the video embedded above!
FleshEater was directed by Bill Hinzman, who played the Cemetery Ghoul – the first flesh-eating zombie ever to grace the screen – in George A. Romero’s classic Night of the Living Dead. Hinzman also wrote the screenplay with Bill Randolph, crafting the following story:
Just when you thought the dead were buried… Experience your most dreadful nightmare become reality as an innocent outdoor sleepover becomes an endless night of sheer terror! Eddie and eight of his friends planned to spend one night on Spencer’s farm. What they hadn’t planned on was...

While it may not be Friday, there is still plenty to celebrate this Tuesday the 13th, as we prepare to head back to Camp Crystal Lake with Scream Factory’s impressive Friday the 13th Collection, which brings together all the films from the original franchise, as well as the remake and Freddy vs. Jason as well. Scream Factory also put together a Blu-ray release of one of the most seminal films from my childhood this week—Terror in the Aisles—and they even are giving Motel Hell the Steelbook treatment on Tuesday as well.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Friday the 13th made a bushel full of money and the quickest way to cash in on it again was to make a sequel. Part 2 pretty much remade the first one, but Jason was given star billing (wearing a flour sack). Years have passed and Alice (Adrienne King) is recovering from her terrors at Camp Crystal lake.
