This week we take on two movies that are pretty surreal in their delivery of good vs evil. We talk about Michele Soavi's Demons 3 nod called“The Church” (1989) and Michael Mann’s disowned world war 2 fairy tale horror movie that had 2 hours cut from it called “The Keep” (1983). Both will deliver a dream-like what the heck is going on atmosphere you are looking for. We break down both and all the oodles of trivia that you might be looking for about it. Plus we even made a shot dedicated to the character “Lotte” played by Asia Argento from “The Church”. It's our #horrorshot called “Lotte Communion”. Have you seen these movie? What did you think of them?
Today we have a special guest on with us. The writer and director of the recent cult hit “Lowlife” Ryan Prows! We talk about his origins, the process of getting 5 writers together on one project, how to not say Narcocorrido, practical fx and Robocop shooting junk. We even came up with a #horrorshot for the movie that we call “El Monstruo” that will make you black out and kick people in the face. It's a grand ol' time. We even do a short SPOILER FREE review after. What are you waiting for?
Sometimes science can be very weird and so is this case in the 2 movies we watched this week. “Altered States” & “Demon Seed”. One story about a guy who is researching the effects of the brain on hallucinogens in sensory deprivation tank and one scientist who creates the smartest Artificial Intelligence with a healthy appetite for makin babies. You won't want to miss this one. Plus we chat it up about last weeks news on the Gremlins reboot and even made a new #horrorshot called a “Sensory Mutation”. All jam packed in this episode “Go home science, you're drunk”.
Mike Saga returns for a Graveplots that will infect your mind. “High FreakQuency”. Is a story abou a hacker who finds a military frequency that was used to control peoples minds and make them act out their worst nightmares. We also take a pickle back “Saga Smash” #horrorshot that fails miserably. Find out all about this weeks BTV episode. We hope you enjoy!
Alex celebrates his Birthday with a childhood trilogy favorite! The Poltergeist Trilogy. We dive into all 3 movies this week and give you all the trivia you can handle. The curse behind the franchise, the deaths , the mystery and the jokes. Help celebrate with us as we also take a #horrorshot called a “Party-Geist” in honor of both the franchise and Alex's Birthday.
It's Britnis Birthday Episode! She picked two movies that tickled her greasy elbow. We watched “Hobo with a Shotgun” and “The Greasy Strangler”. Two messed up movies that are completely different. We talk about the news this last week and we made up a combo #horrorshot called “The Greasy Shotgun” that combines both the movies we watched this week! Have you seen these weird flicks? It's a perfectly messed up episode and I think you will like it.
This week we interview Director Yfke Van Berckelaer about her career and the documentary about the film called "the Johnsons" she made called "Xangadix Lives". We talk about her next project (Kickboxer Hair Metal In Space) that will blow your mind, her beginnings and a lot more. The we dive into the movie that kicked off this interview "The Johnsons" from Holland! We had a lot of fun putting this episode together. Plus, we made a #HorrorShot jello shot themed around the embryo baby fetus god called a "Xangadixie" that is absolutely delicious.
You asked for it. So we delivered. MORE weird Asian flicks. We invited our friend Don Anelli from the Horror Mafia Podcast to help us digest and upack these flicks from the 80s. They may be a little deeper cuts into the genre than normal. This week we talk about the psychedelic adventure ride from hell called “The Boxers Omen”. Existential horror at its best? This one blew our minds as it's trippy gore splattered our eyes. Next we talk about the gore soaked “Evil Dead Trap”. No, not an unofficial sequel to Evil Dead. It's another sort of existential horror movies that a conjoined twin kills off a camera crew one by one. Have you seen these? Well buckle up and get ready for us to tell you all about them. We save the spoilers for last.
This week we take on a listeners movie title submission called.. “10 Red Tears in the Cage of the Salamander”. Crazy name? You betcha and it's a pretty great story that we made up for complete with sound fx in the story! The story is about a scientist who does experiments on Red Heads to grow back appendages on people but it goes horribly wrong. Pretty awesome stuff. We also jump into the news this past week and discuss about Ash Vs. Evil Dead and the Oscars. Find out about all this on this weeks BTV episode. We hope you enjoy!
This week we take a visit to Japan to visit some of the more odd horror movie stops along the way in our episode segment called “WTH Japan”. We watched “Wild Zero” a tripped out Comic book Tarantino-esque adventure with rockabilly greasers, zombies, UFO's and crazy humor. Then we take on “Crazy Lips” which turned out to be a test of strength and weirdness. It Truly turned out the be the WTH we were looking for. Join us as we take on weird, unsettling & silly.
Another week with 1 episode. We are trying to renovate the studio and get things working so bare with us as we transition into a GLORIOUS new studio. This week we picked our pick for the last Women In Horror Month & Black History Month pick “Gothika”. There are not many films that have black female leads in them and even less that we have not already covered. So we decided to dip into the mainstream a bit more for this week. Have you seen “Gothika”? We talk all about why we like/dislike this movie. Plus we take a “Gothika” themed shot and talk about the horror news this past week!! .
This weeks Flesh & Potatoes we take on and put together 2 horror movies with possession on offering. We kick things off with “The Taking of Deborah Logan” which is a found footage movie about an older lady with alzheimer's gone wrong. Then we jump into a more artsy film with a bit of a double entendre in the possession department. This movie will scar you mentally as it's nothing you might have seen before it. We devour both for this week and tell you all about the gory details.
This weeks Flesh & Potatoes we continue to honor women in horror with two wicked lady movies. This time it's in High School. Two movies that seem to get compared together a lot since one of their releases. So we figured let's match them up against each other. Tragedy Girls Vs. Heathers. Cult Classic vs Instant Cult Classic. Who will win? Have you seen these? Sit back and enjoy as we break down both, our thoughts, trivia and our favorite scenes! So sit back and enjoy!
This week we do our #Graveplots segment mixing carnivals & cthulhu styled creatures. Sound amazing? Well this week will be just right for you. In our movie we made up called “It Lurks Below”. One of our friends / listeners title submitted by Director John Hale. Congrats! Alex packed in some sound fx to give the atmosphere of the movie as we make it up! We also take a #horrorshot dedicated to the movie “Heathers” (1988) called “Fudge me with a Chainsaw”. Then we jump into last week's news and talk about some upcoming horror that you won't want to miss.
This weeks Flesh & Potatoes we continue to honor women in horror with two wicked lady movies with a knack for sewing flesh together. The Twisted Twins bring us a story about extreme body modification and the underground mod community in American Mary. Then Lucky McKee driector of “The Woman” brings us one of his earlier movies about a shy girl who can't make friends and decides to make her own with May. Two movies that take humans and make art with them. Join us in breaking them down we always save the spoilers for the end of each movie.
This week we do our #Graveplots segment with a special guest. Writer and horror afficionado Isaac Thorne joins us to make up a listeners movie title. We talk a bit with Isaac and see what is brewing in the creative bucket as well as some of his inspirations. Then we dive head first into “The Cadillac Killers” #graveplots. It's a pretty crazy story about a group of killers who kill people in specific ways with their Cadillac Cars. They all answer to “the voice” on the phone. It's gore soaked and depraved with some pretty crazy characters to push the story along. Plus we do a #horrorshot dedicated to the Soska Sisters called a “Soska-Tini” shot. Since we will be talking about “American Mary” on Thursday! It's a jam packed and blood splatter episode.
This weeks Flesh & Potatoes is Troll & Troll 2 with our Special Guest Vash. Two movies that don't actually stand together in story but are both pretty odd. We kick it off with Empires “Troll” first and talk about the crazy creepy creatures and its silly soundtrack that gets stuck in your head. Plus a lot more. Then we dive into what is considered to be the best worst film ever made with “Troll 2”. We are pretty sure after we break down both of these movies and their trivia that you will be screaming “Oh my godddddddd...!” to Cantos Pronfanae.
We have a brand NEW segment that we are doing today! It's called “Ghosts, Legends or Crime”! This week on the new segment we talk about the Legend of “La Llorona” a hispanic ghost legend that has been around for over 500 years about a woman who killed her children by drowning them and then herself. Only to be forced to roam the afterlife looking for her kids. We talk about the many varying stories surrounding it. The real life origins of the story, the “La Llorona” sightings, real life copy cats and all the media surrouding this tale. Plus, we have a special guest on for the #Horroshots where we make a drink themed around the movie “Troll 2” called “Nilbog Grog”. Then jump into the news! It's a big week! Listen now!
This weeks Flesh & Potatoes is a double feature from the 70s. We watched “I Drink Your Blood” & “I Eat Your Skin”. Two movies that don't actually do what they are called but still pack a punch to the face of history. One is about a Rabies infected group of satan worshiping hippies and one is about an island of googly eyed voodoo zombies. Find out why these 2 movies came about and all the crazy trivia.
