Flesh Gordon

United States, 1974
Flesh Gordon
Starring Jason Williams, Cindy Hopkins.
Directed by Michael Benveniste, Howard Ziehm.

When Emperor Wang (ruler of planet Porno) bathes the Earth in Sex Rays, Flesh Gordon and Dale Ardor must swing into action and save the day. Of course, "saving the day" means lots and lots of gratuitous nudity and more than a few naughty acts. If that's not your idea of entertainment, though, at least at the end you'll find the monstrous, stop-animated Nesuahyrrah (spell it backwards), with whom Dale recreates a famous scene or two from other, better movies. In case we have to tell you, this one's definitely not for kids.

a.k.a. H.G. Wells
United States, 1976
Food of the Gods, The
Starring Marjoe Gortner, Pamela Franklin.
Directed by Bert I. Gordon.

Goo bubbles out of the ground and causes the local wildlife and livestock to grow to huge size while the local humans try to figure out how to make money off the situation. Giant rats are the main aggressor, though in one memorable scene someone is attacked by a giant chicken.

Frankenfish
Starring Tory Kittles, K.D. Aubert, China Chow.

Frankenstein Conquers the World

a.k.a. Frankenstein vs. Baragon
Japan, 1965
Frankenstein Conquers the World
Starring Tadao Takashima, Nick Adams, Kumi Mizuno.
Directed by Ishiro Honda.

Frankenstein's immortal heart spawns a creature in Hiroshima after the city is atom bombed. Twenty years later the monster is captured by three scientists studying radiation. When the monster escapes the scientists have to hunt it down, a process complicated by Baragon, an underground dwelling dinosaur also terrorizing Japan.

The ending of the film originally had Frankenstein fighting a giant octopus, but it was cut. War of the Gargantuas is a sequel to this movie.

Frostbiter

a.k.a. Wendigo
United States, 1996
Frostbiter
Starring Ron Asheton, Lori Baker, Devlin Burton.
Directed by Tom Chaney.

Was your chief complaint about Evil Dead that it didn't have enough snow? Then you might enjoy Frostbiter, a movie with no more ambition than to be an Evil Dead rip-off set on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Some hunters break a mystic circle and release an evil force called Wendigo. The Wendigo starts killing people and possessing chili. No, really. The big bad turns out to be a giant centaur-like creature.
