I...LOVE...trailer compilations! Over the past twenty or so years I've collected probably a hundred or more. They're fun. I've got spaghetti western trailer comps, giallo, EuroSpy, horror, sci-fi, nudie cuties from the 50s & 60s, martial arts and on and on and on. Back in 80s Something Weird Video started putting out VHS tapes of trailer comps in a series called Dusk to Dawn Drive-In Trash-o-Rama Show. To the best of my knowledge they had ten volumes, each was a mishmash of genres, mostly action and horror from the 50s-70s. Lots of outrageous stuff.
When it comes to trailer compilations, it's really tough to not like any of them. I've certainly never watched one I didn't enjoy. True, some are better than others. In an ideal world where I have cloned myself and had tons of time for all of the me's to do what I want, I'd make my own trailer comps making the ultimate in entertainment for me and my friends. Unless there's just a string of dull trailers, just about all trailer comps are going to rate a 8/10 - 10/10 because they're just so much damn fun.
For years I thought how fun it would be to take one of the trailer comps I have and watch every film represented. It'd be a huge undertaking but it could be a total gas. A few days ago I came across someone who is doing just that. He created a page (I'd list it here but it's on a site for members only and therefore it would not be accessible to just about everyone...sorry) which lists all ten volumes of this series with every single film whose trailer is contained on them and which ones he's seen. I've waited long enough. But rather than just watch any of the films, I'm going to watch them in order beginning with this series and volume 1. It's a tremendous undertaking which will take me the rest of 2010 to accomplish but it's sure to at least be a fun ride. I have most of these films already and it looks like I should be able to get my hands on nearly all of the rest. Some I've already seen since I started the blog and there are some others that I haven't seen since in over 20 years.
So let's dig into it. Here's the complete list of all of the films on volume 1 which link to their trailers on YouTube as well as links to the reviews on this site as I see them. It's worth noting that many of these films have many alternate titles and the ones represented (in the trailers themselves) may not be the title you would know. For example, The Jezebels is MUCH better known as Switchblade Sisters.
