The Manster
18/09/2012Half man, half monster, it's The Manster! Proof that if you watch enough bad movies, sometimes, you might just find a treasure. Dave and Lucas dive deep into this Japanese-American hybrid to find worthy notes in a film otherwise clouded by its terrible production value. This isn't one to miss folks!

Manos: The Hands of Fate
29/08/2012Well, we got to hand it them, they made one truly unique film. It's warped, but in a way it's like a child's first drawing with a crayon that's an untrained distortion of the image they are trying to create. This is an untrained distortion of what we think was supposed to be a movie. Yet somehow it turned out entertaining despite all its obvious flaws. So let's pat 'em on the back and hang this one up on the fridge.

Piranha, Piranha
22/08/2012And here we give you Piranha, Piranha, or as we like to call it, Man with Thick Neck Kills Things. What it lacks in plot and entertainment value it makes up for with heavy amounts of montage set to dull hippie music, abuse of abnoxious women, murder death, and of course that thick, juicy, man neck. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll fall asleeep and dream about Sean Connery, you'll cry some more, and then you'll either laugh or start a militia group. It's up to you. Enjoy.

How Awful About Allan
15/08/2012Oh how awful, How Awful About Allan was. Anthony Perkins plays yet another crazy man, grappling with the firy death of his father and the homicidal motives of his family's recent tenant. Did we mention he was blind? Yeah, his sister takes pretty good advantage of that.
-
The Mistress of Atlantis
07/08/2012What do Frenchmen, deserts, the can-can, Dali's mustache, and cheetahs all have in common? Well, this movie of course! You'll probably think the whole thing was a mirage, but don't let the robot lady from Metropolis fool you. We assure you, it all really happened! Sort of. Maybe?
-
Menace from Outer Space
31/07/2012Don't become a menace from outer space or Rockey Jones will come and kick your ass! That is, if he doesn't pass out in transit, only to have his manchild sidekick Winky kill them all in a horrific accident because he couldn't keep his hands off the controls. On second thought, you might be fine menacing the cosmos. Just look out for Starman.
-
The Lost World
24/07/2012RAWR! It's dino time! This Lost World isn't the one you remember from your childhood, but an equally heroic tale of people . . . trapped on a plateau . . . with dinosaurs . . . and a monkey man? Well, maybe it's nothing like Spielberg's Lost World, but who cares, we watched it for you! Listen in as Lucas and Dave share their experience watching this 1926 silent adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novel.

Troll 2
17/07/2012In celebration of the show making its premiere on the iTunes market Dave and Lucas take a detour from their planned movie schedule and torture themelves with Troll 2. Join them as they rip into the best worst movie and find themselves enjoying it way more than they probably should be.
-
The Fury of the Wolfman
11/07/2012Are you interested in a story about a man's personal transformation? Women and potato peelers beware, Paul Naschy lets out his inner beast and goes wild in this week's movie. Science need not make sense when you've got so many fetishes crammed into 84 minutes of hair-raising goodness (Yes I said crammed). Let the mind scarring begin!

Good Against Evil
27/06/2012At first there was . . . and then there was . . . and then the priest was . . . and then the movie went somewhere . . . and then it was all leading up to . . . well, you get it.

Shadow of Chinatown
20/06/2012This is a movie about a guy, bleh. And a girl, bleh. And Bela Lugosi, bleh. He played Dracula, bleh. But he's not Dracula in this movie, bleh. But he still acts like he is, bleh. Also, whatch out for falling chandaliers, bleh. Enjoy . . . bleh.

Eternal Evil
12/06/2012Astral projective homicide is easy when you can't control it! Just sit back and dream as your family is murdered all around you. That is, unless you think it's the elderly couple on TV? Call the police! They'll know what to do.
-
Embryo
06/06/2012Sometimes science goes a little too far. Creating a hyper intelligent dog from fetus to canine in a couple days is one thing, but when you use a human fetus, well, that's just asking for trouble. One thing will lead another and she'll start murdering people in the basement. I wouldn't trust that dog either, it looks up to no good.

Lucas and Dave discuss their fond memories of browsing those aisles of VHS tapes and DVDs, searching for that perfect cinematic choice.

Death Warmed Up
30/05/2012Welcome to the murder parade. As it would appear, having an island devoted to evil brain science isn't the fun everyone claims it to be. It only takes a handful of horny teenagers to derail the schemes of mad science, and they don't even need to be trying all that hard. For those of you who like their death a little hotter than luke warm, well, here you go.

All the Kind Strangers
23/05/2012Kidnappings, it was 1974, everyone was doing it. You remember, you tried it too. Nobody knew any better back then, but now we know the harmful side effects that can occur. As depicted in this film, with a catchy tune to boot!

The Nightmare Never Ends
16/05/2012Did you ever wonder what it'd be like if a Nazi hunter, an author, a monk, a detective, and a doctor teamed up to defeat Satan? Well, you never will, because they were all pretty terrible at it. Hop on the demon train with Lucas and Dave as they discuss the unlikely cluster of characters' fight against the forces of evil.
