Street Trash
A deadly liquor rips through a community of vagabonds living in the junkyards of Brooklyn, in this outlandish 80s body horror.
Director: Jim Muro
Overview
A group of homeless people living in a dilapidated junkyard in New York City, ruled with an iron fist by a brutal ex-Vietnam veteran, turn to a cheap and deadly liquor called “Tenafly Viper,” which when consumed melts their bodies and kills them in the most gruesome of ways. Blending body horror with satirical commentary on societal decay and urban poverty, Jim Muro’s directorial debut became notorious for its over-the-top gore and outlandish humour, becoming a cult classic example of 1980s exploitation films.
