Trash Talk: The Garbage Pail Kids Movie review

Welcome to the second episode of our brand new internet telly series Trash Talk.

We’ll be treating Trash Talk like a proper telly show, so come back every Thursday to hear totalfilm.com's resident exploitation expert Sam Ashurst deconstructing some of the most awesome trash flicks of the ‘80s. And occasionally the ‘70s.

This week, we'll be looking at grotesque kids' film The Garbage Pail Kids Movie. Be warned, some of what you'll see below is a bit gross. But it's mostly stupid.

So, Garbage Pail Kids or Garbage Fail Kids? Tell us below!
