Horror Hunk: Joe Dallesandro

Flesh For Frankenstein
Joe Dallesandro & Monique Van Vooren 
Normally I moniker this day "Sunday Schwing" but it being the Halloween season and all, for the rest of the month it now scares the byline "Horror Hunk" as I am only giving consideration to those men who have flaunted their flesh in, what else? Horror Movies!!! 

Well I've got Joe Dallesandro to kick the season of the witch off! The man is a Warhol (as in Andy) Factory legend. He has gone full monty on film and photos so many times and talk about a tomb with a view! 

Joe is a manly man. With testosterone for days and then some. Today's view of Joe is brought to you by Andy Warhol's Flesh For Frankenstein Directed by Paul Morrissey.

Now as you know you can only see the tease beast image I have posted above on Entertain Me, but never fear I got a NSFW link of balls out images and astute coverage via Tye Briggs Favorite Hunks & Other Things.

So knock your horror crazed ass out and see what Little Joe, as was his nickname in the day, is packing. Trust me, it taint small and it will make you want to Schwing

Get your Joe nuts & bits, here...

Film Buff Friday: The Climber

Joe Dallesandro beyond Andy Warhol's Factory...

THE CLIMBER [Blu-ray + DVD] (May 16th)

After shooting cult favorites Flesh for Frankenstein and Blood for Dracula in Europe, Joe Dallesandro spent much of the seventies making movies on the continent. In France, he worked with auteurs like Louis Malle and Walerian Borowczyk, and in Italy he starred in all manner of genre fare from poliziotteschi (Savage ThreeSeason for Assassins) to nunsploitation (Killer Nun). 

The Climber follows in the tradition of gangster classics such as The Public Enemy and Scarface as it charts the rise and inevitable fall of small-time smuggler Aldo (Dallesandro). Beaten and abandoned by the local gang boss after he tries to skim off some profits for himself, Aldo forms his own group of misfits in order to exact revenge... 

Written and directed by Pasquale Squitieri (Gang War in NaplesI Am the Law), The Climber is a prime example of Italian crime cinema - a high-octane action-thriller full of brawls, fistfights, shootouts and explosions!
