Hot Spur

RESTORED UNCENSORED FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER

Having struck gold with shockumentaries like ECCO and MONDO BIZARRO, producer Bob Cresse and writer/director Lee Frost applied their distinctive sleaze aesthetic to a revenge western they advertised as "91 minutes of Freudian fury!" It would soon redefine the 'roughie,' be named one of the Top Ten Movies of 1969 by conservative publication National Review and become one of the most notorious exploitation films in history. Joseph Mascolo (Days Of Our Lives), Virginia Gordon (THE ANIMAL) and John Alderman (TRADER HORNEE) star in this infamous Olympic International hit now scanned uncut in 4K from the recently rediscovered negative, with Special Features from the Something Weird archive that include the 1963 Frost/Cresse stripper epic HOLLYWOOD'S WORLD OF FLESH and the 1968 nudie-cutie short THE CASTING DIRECTOR starring Bob Cresse and directed by David F. Friedman.
