1986. Gnarly. This movie will make you want to barf. Buddy Giovinazzo wrote and directed this flick, the best in the Troma catalogue that's not an in-house production. Buddy got his brother Rick to star in this story of a shell shocked Vietnam veteran walking around an urban wasteland to an insane eighties score. Buddy cites Eraserhead as a major influence to the movie. He's made a few more movies, including the recent Life is Hot in Cracktown, which he adapted from his own novel. From the trailer, it looks like it might have a similar feel to Combat Shock. Troma recently put out a nice 25th anniversary edition that you should order from Amazon.
