Buns

About This Movie

Buns (1978) is this bizarre blend of comedy and horror that kind of sneaks up on you. The premise is pretty wild—a guy, the Hamburger Killer, goes around taking out fast food lovers. It's got that grimy low-budget feel, with a mix of slapstick and some genuinely unsettling moments. The pacing is all over the place, but it somehow keeps you intrigued. Practical effects are a highlight, especially considering its era; they really lean into the absurdity. Performances are quirky, adding to that off-kilter atmosphere. It's not your average horror-comedy. It's definitely distinctive, almost like a cult oddity in the making.

Buns has a bit of a cult following, especially among collectors who appreciate the oddities of 70s cinema. Its scarcity in physical formats adds to the allure—most folks know it only through bootlegs or grainy uploads online. There’s definitely a niche market for it, as the blend of humor and horror appeals to a certain taste, making it a curiosity in the genre landscape. If you come across a copy, it’s one of those titles that sparks conversation among fellow collectors.
