The Head, The Tail, The Whole Damn Thing

Hey everyone! Welcome new Listeners! Here's a super-sized episode of the show! This time, it's From Dusk Till Dawn (1996), which Mike worked on, and the new It girl of vampire films Ryan Coogler's Sinners (2025). This episode features a lot of great behind-the-scenes content from Dusk. We also delve into the Canadian treat, Poutine, and Swedish Blues. So listen along and have a laugh with us!

If you're enjoying the show, we need p...

This one's Looong. That's okay, we think most of you like that...In anticipation of our live show in Crystal Lake, Illinois, on Friday June 13th, we have pre-reviewed the movie we will be screening there. Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) and a movie it pairs damn well with Finn Wolfhard's horror comedy, A Hell of a Summer (2025) This is a good way to kick off the summer for us here with some campy camp counselor slashing. If you're an...

Too much Monkey Bizness! It's another milestone! 20 episodes! Well, look at us go monkeying around! This is another one that comes from the hearts and minds of our Patreon supporters on the Discord. We wanted to review Osgood Perkins' latest, The Monkey (2025) based on the Stephen King short story, and they chose George Romero's dare we say...classic? Monkey Shines (1988) to walk down the movie aisle with it. Thank you for remindin...

It's our 19th episode and our 3rd guest! With the new movie Final Destination Bloodlines (2025) coming out, we wanted to talk to Producer and friend of the show Craig Perry, who was involved in all of those films. Craig was also one of the main producers on the American Pie series, and so much more over the years. He's got a fantastic, fun energy and a lot to say. If you are a fan of the Final Destination movies, we cover all of th...

This episode, Mike and James explore two titles with a little international flair. Both of these movies need a superintendent who's not a jerk to help the cast escape the horrors of their run-down apartment buildings. One has an issue with zombies and the other is infested with spiders... "What Nooo!!" Yes, that's right, Mark Wahlberg. On this episode, we get continental and discuss the now "classic" found footage Spanish film Rec ...

Thanks for being here with us! In this episode we cover companionship. It’s a beautiful thing that shouldn’t be abused, or mixed with Voodoo apparently. Both of these films show how companionship can go terribly and amazingly wrong. We get deep into the original Childs Play (1988) where Chucky became the horror icon he is today. We talk a lot about the behind the scenes geniuses for Chucky. In a world before digital FX these guys, ...

This week, we are wolf-positive and leapin' n hoppin' on a moon shadow. It's The Howling from 1981. Which is one of the reasons Mike wanted to do makeup FX in the first place. The boys have a good time with this one discussing things like the maturing of young men who saw Marsha for the first time and what's in Dick Miller's bookstore. In our second feature, we discuss Leigh Whannel's new Blumhouse film Wolf Man (2025) There's a lo...

This is a fun one that's sure to keep you smiling as you look over your shoulder and see who is following you. We talk about David Robert Mitchell's sexually transmitted demon movie It Follows from (2014), and we compare it to Parker Finn’s (2024) sequel Smile 2. There are lots of behind-the-scenes moments on these two films for you knowledge-hungry listeners As well as some references to exotic sexual positions also for you knowle...

On this episode, we take a class in low-budget filmmaking and discuss Saw (2004), which at the time was the directorial debut of James Wan. Who has since become one of the 4 basic food groups of horror. It was also the writing and acting debut of Leigh Whannel, who's gone on to be heavily involved in so many Wan and Blumhouse projects. After escaping the Saw trap. We discuss a movie about everyone's favorite and calming subject.....

Hey fans! Here is your bi-monthly slice of humor and movie reviews. We had a real good time on this one we actually had to stop twice because we were laughing too hard. You'll probably know when; it's absurd. We apologize in advance for the sophomoric humor we dove into. What's there to say about Stephen King's only movie he's ever directed? Well, apparently a lot. Maximum Overdrive is unabashedly in the so bad it's good category. ...

Hey everyone, It's exciting to say this is our twelfth episode! And it's a doozy. For our first feature, It's a classic Joel Schumacher film starring the Coreys and Kiefer Sutherland, The Lost Boys (1987), and everyone has been talking about Robert Eggers new Nosferatu. Now its our turn for our second film. It's a fantastic little Bloodsucking double feature of fun for ya. We have a lot of laughs discussing Sexy Sax man Timmy Capel...

Hey everyone! We have a special guest in the studio! A few months back, we were on comedian Dana Gould's podcast, The Dana Gould Hour, during his Halloween episode, so we invited him to join us here and asked him what he would like to review. Dana chose last year's Oscar-winning Godzilla Minus One, and we paired it with The Host, a Korean monster movie from 2006, which we all thought worked pretty well. This is the result of that n...

Hey, it's our tenth episode and our first of 2025! Also our first little milestone! We think these two movies oddly enough go pretty well together. There are lots of behind-the-scenes tidbits in this episode regarding (1995) Species. We also discuss Michael Madsen turned up to 11, What's in the Species hot tub? Why this movie's special effects were innovative. In the second half, we get into the nuttiness of Tillman Singer's (2024)...

Happy Holidays! There's a little bit more in the stocking this year, as this episode clocks in as the longest yet (Mom, you'll have to split it into two LOL). It's the original Omen, with all kinds of how'd they do that, and special spooky stuff about "The Curse of the Omen." Our second feature is the new 2024 prequel to the original Omen, The First Omen. Directed by Arkasha Stevenson. Find out as we discover. What's in the Omen Ju...

The long-awaited Videodrome/Substance episode is here! If you are looking for body horror, you've found it. Everyone has been talking about the Substance and now the boys finally get to share their notes. This episode was actually supposed to be on before, but got shifted around when we did the Thanksgiving special. So here it is...On this one Mike gets into some great behind-the-scenes "how'd they do that" bits along with some fun...

Here's our first collaborative show! A handful of you listeners sent in reviews of bad movies, and we read them out. Tyler, our announcer, is live in the studio for the whole show as we do an in-depth and hopefully hilarious deep dive on M Night Shyamalan's, The Happening (2008), Mark Wahlberg impersonations abound, as well as plenty of movie sound clips. It's fun for the whole family to kick off the Holiday season.

As always, to h...

Honestly, this may not sound like a good review pairing, at least not Leprechaun...but this may be our funniest one yet. Listen along as we explore such topics as General Mills refusal to support Leprechaun with Lucky Charms, hear some fun makeup and set stories, learn how Mike's not a stalker, but will reach out to famous directors he doesn't know on the internet, and... we read one of our first reviews on air. Let us know if the ...

Welcome to our Halloween Episode where we decided to review one of the lesser-known Halloween movies the (1982) classic Halloween 3: Season of the Witch, it's nuts!! and pair it with the Cairnes Brothers' (2023) hit, Late Night with The Devil. We laugh about other stuff, Sammy Davis Jr and the church of Satan, Dick Warlock wipes it on the curtains, being on location in a hotel and more... and what's a show without a taste of Gene S...

On this one we chat about the (1985) classic FBI procedural Manhunter featuring the first instance of Hannibal Lecture, and pair it with Osgood Perkins much talked about (2024) Longlegs. We also talk about coffee, Beastmaster, and John Amos (oddly enough we recorded this a week prior to his passing) R.I.P. We also continue our one side feud with Gene Siskel (titan of the Industry.)

At one point I mention...
