Retro Blood 179: Island of Blood (1982) 🔥🎬
James Kline and J.H. Alison continue Killer Island Month with the obscure slasher Island of Blood aka Whodoit—where bad acting meets bad lighting in a low-budget horror mess! This one tries to cash in on Friday the 13th but misses the mark, and the boys break down why.
In the history segment, James covers a wrestling card headlined by Killer Khan, while Alison dives into Black Sabbath’s 1982 “Mob Rules” tour.
With little behind-the-scenes info on this film, we discuss director William T. Naud, Jeanine Marie’s on-set injury, and how this slasher was inspired by Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None.
Then, it's time for the full breakdown—Ramones guys 1 & 2, Gary’s failed heroics, Jim’s one-liners, Frank’s cringey beach scene, BJ’s sleazy ambition, and, of course, a movie so dark you can barely see it!
