Blog Posts about Barbara Crampton

Ah, the '80s. When VHS was king and so-called "scream queens" posed in Penthouse on the regular.

Things have changed substantially since the days of Reagan and legwarmers, but the Tumblr site HorrorBoobs.com is keeping the dream alive with the second-best (after Mr. Skin, of course) collection of SKINtage horror nudity on the 'Net.

HorrorBoobs.com has a variety of horror hooter (and hairpie) related media- nude horror fan art, classic skinema posters, stills and GIFs of classic horror nude scenes- but our favorite is their collection of nude pinups from '80s scream queens like Brinke Stevens and Linnea Quigley (left). Talk about getting scared stiff!

Spring has officially sprung, and you know what that means...SPRING BREAK!

Yes, that magical season of wet t-shirt contests, jell-o wrestling, and drunk coeds flashing their tits has come around once more. The only problem? Try as we might to get joggers to do Jaeger bombs with us along the shores of Lake Michigan, it's a sad fact that the nearest Spring Break destination is a thousand miles away.

But we don't believe in feeling sorry for ourselves here at Skin Central, so join us for the ultimate roundup of Spring Break babes in (and out of) their bikinis after the jump!

"King of Underground Cinema" Eric Stanze is a huge SKINspiration to all of us here at Skin Central. A lifelong cinema devotee, Eric knew from a very young age that he wanted to become a filmmaker.

And with an independent spirit that would make his childhood idol, Dawn of the Dead (1978) legend and creator of the modern zombie film George Romero, proud, that's exactly what he did. Eric founded his own production company, Wicked Pixel Pictures, when he was in his early twenties, and has gone on to direct six films and produce many more under the Wicked Pixel imprint.

Though he's best known among horror fans for transgressive films that push the limits of cinematic violence and sexuality, Eric's films span a wide variety of horror and exploitation genres from atmospheric ghost stores (Deadwood Park, 2007) to rape-and-revenge films (I Spit on Your Corpse, I Piss on Your Grave, 2001) to brutal serial-killer flicks (Scrapbook, 2000).

His newest film is Ratline (2011), starring his frequent leading lady Emily Haack as a fugitive who stumbles into the dangerous world of Nazi occultism while on the run from a botched drug-money heist. Ratline has been praised by critics for its unique vision and intense thrills; Popmatters.com calls it "One of the most original horror experiences of the past decade".

We caught up with Eric at Wicked Pixel HQ in St. Louis, where he talked with Skin Central about his cinematic inspirations, the state of indie filmmaking in the Internet age, and what's coming next.

Not to be confused with caged monkey--pubic hair sticking out of undies--the mythical lip slip is one of the most hallowed and rare flesh flashes in all of skinema. Full labia hanging out of panties is one way to give some lip, so let's hear it for Rose McGowan, Anna Nicole Smith, and the rest of our Top 10 Celebrity Lip Slips.

Still scrambling for a holiday gift for the skin fan in your life? Well, you can't do much better than these classic slices of '70s and '80s skinema, newly restored to their original nude glory and newly available on DVD.

Join us after the jump for Mr. Skin's top DVD re-releases of 2011!

Pack your bags and don't forget the lube, Skin fans, because we're going on a road trip this week on DVD and Blu-ray. First we stop on the breast coast for Season 4 of Californication, starring Addison Timlin's perfect pair, and, uh, some dude from The X-Files. Next we thumb a ride with the French skin flick Going Places, (1974), nude on Blu-ray, with a brief layover at Melanie Laurent's fabulous funbaguettes in Beginners (2011). Finally, all aboard for a fabulously nude Fraternity Vacation (1985), on a double DVD with those bad, bad Reform School Girls (1986).

Non-nude but sexy, run away and join the circus with Reese Witherspoon in Water for Elephants (2011), new on DVD and Blu-ray.

Boobalicious blonde Barbara Crampton, star of 80's horror flicks great (Re-Animator, 1985) and not so great (Chopping Mall, 1986), is returning to the horror game with You're Next, which started principal photography in Missouri this week. It's not yet clear what part she'll be playing in the film, directed by Adam Wingard, but production company Snoot Entertainment promises "a fresh spin" on the typically brutal and intense home invasion subgenre (think Funny Games or High Tension):

"In 'You're Next' the Davison family comes under attack from a terrifying group of sadistic murderers during a family reunion getaway. Barricaded in their secluded vacation home, they fight off a barrage of axes, crossbows and machetes from both inside and outside the house. However, the masked killers didn't count on Erin (Vinson), the young girlfriend of the eldest Davison son whose mysterious past has made her very difficult to kill."

Barbara has been working mostly in soap operas for the past decade, so fright fans who have been missing her lovely face (and awesome anatomy)- like Mr. Skin- are looking forward to her return to scream queen form. But will she bare those fabulous funbags, now aged to perfection like a fine wine? It would be downright sadistic not to!

Check out the very breast of Barbara with our brand spanking new Barbara Crampton: 80s Scream Queen Nude playlist!

The snow is starting to melt here at Skin Central, and our jeans are jumping with excitement, because with the coming of spring comes one of the breast times of the year- SPRING BREAK!

To prime your peter for the coming boobquake, sample of some of Mr. Skin’s favorite Spring Break flicks after the jump!
