Jelinski as Cinema Crew(credited as Manfred Jelinski) Lasko as Man in TV Fritz Fuchs as Slaughterer NEKRomantik (1988) is one of those movies. You know the ones. That cadre of films that are more infamous than famous in their attempts to be licentious and transgressive, while many fail or don\u2019t even aspire to be truly artful. NEKRomantik is also a \u201cno budget\u201d film made on the tiniest thread of a shoestring, and it really shows. Director J\u00f6rg Buttgereit himself says he never wanted to be a director. His goal was to rebel against the German film rating system and to shock as many people as possible. Does he succeed? Rest assured, the \u201880s Grue Crew will give you their opinions. One thing is for sure. We watch \u2018em so you don\u2019t have to. At the time of this writing, NEKRomantik (1988) is available to stream from Shudder, AMC+, and Arrow. Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine\u2019s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s.
