Always been a fan of z grade german gore movies, Andreas Schnaas is a personal fav of mine, but I already own all his available movies (except for Goblet of Gore, which i can't seem to locate a copy of. If you know where to get one, send me a link.) Like some Olaf Ittenbach as well, Premutos was fun and I just ordered The Burning Moon, if anyone knows any of his new ones that are decent let me know, (actually kind of enjoyed House of Blood believe it or not.) One of his new ones Dard Divorce looks pretty cool, can't find a US region dvd of it however. Bought Das Komabrutal Duell a few years ago, got a good kick out of that....terrible, terrible mess of a film, but hey, gore was great. So if anyone has any good suggestions, looking to pick up some new DVDs is this small but enjoyable sub genre.

Dard Divorce is a pretty fun one.
They have one copy left here,
http://www.diabolikdvd.com/search/search.html?_srch=Dard%20Divorce
It says PAL all region though so I'm not sure if that's exactly region free, I know the copy I own isn't.
If you like Ittenbach you should also check out "Garden of Love", it's called like "The Haunting of Rebecca Verlaine" or something along those lines here in the states. If you liked "Das Komabrutal Duell" I'm sure you would like any of Ittenbach's films. His most recent "No Reason" can be ordered pretty much anywhere online, think it was even on Walmart's website for a while.
Then of course there is Jorg Buttgereit who did, "Necromantik", my fav from him is "Der Todesking" which I believe you could pick up from Diabolik last I checked.
The film "Cannibal" by Marian Dora is one you'd like too, as long as you don't mind dicks in every other scene, difficult to find though. I recently picked up Melancholie der Engel by the same director, it's only in German though so I'm taking my time on getting around to watching it.
I've also recently ordered a lot of movies from Dtm.at (yes that's the actual website) but you'll need to pick up a region free player if you want to watch most of those titles.

Not a huge fan of that genre but I thought Zombie 90 was good for a laugh (but I guess you have that one :-)

Thanks of the recs! I've been interested in grabbing a copy of cannibal, apparently its been out of print for a while now and goes for a considerable amount of money though. Forgot about Jorg Buttgereit. Been meaning to check out Der Todesking, picked up a copy of Schraam quite a few years ago, strange film... Nekromantik is pretty much impossible to find copy of yes?

You might like Rammbock (2010). I second the rec of Nekromantik but also rec Nekromantik 2 which I preferred if you can get a copy of them that is.

They had both no Diabolikdvd not too long ago, I own Necromantik 1-2 and Der Todesking, I probably liked Schramm the least out of all the films I'd seen from him. I can't really think of any other GERMAN splatter movies, but "Machine Girl" "Tokyo Gore Police"... things of that sort are some cool asian ones. Then there is "Adam Chaplin" is probably the coolest gore film I'd seen as of late, It's Italian. You should definitely check it out though.
