This week's schlockfest is the classic cable TV staple, "Maniac Cop", written by our fave Larry Cohen and directed by Warren Lustig of "Maniac" fame. Loads of familiar faces in this one, and some pretty impressive stunts for a low-budget movie. Enjoy!

Although technically a cannibal movie, it's not much of a horror flick after the first 10 minutes or so. A star-studded lineup only added to the mystery of why we had never heard of this movie before. Is it worth your time? Listen to find out!

Would you believe he did a horror movie? Well, technically it's a horror comedy, but of course Craig was chomping at the bit to discuss one of his favorites from long ago. AND to gush over the incomparable Mr. Reubens - with perhaps more of the latter than the former. Enjoy!

With a star-studded cast and tongue planted firmly in-cheek, Creepshow translates the iconic horror comics of the 50's to the silver screen with glee. We loved chatting about this iconic and legendary film and film series in the horror pantheon. Enjoy!

This insanely fun romp took us all the way back to the hyper-masculine, ultra-violent 80's action flicks we grew up with.

This is a 90's movie through and through, and our memories of were a bit rosy. Watching it today for the first time in a long time, we mostly had fun laughing at it, but appreciating Sands' fine performance. Enjoy!

Pearl gives us some deep, heart-wrenching insight into the villain from the previous film, while copping the style of 1930's Hollywood. For us, much like X, it worked beautifully.

Suffice it to say that we were big fans of this flick that chronicles a group of youngsters heading out into the farmlands to shoot a porno movie and end up getting much more than they bargained for.

In celebration, we dive deep into a rather shallow flick - the straight-to-video 1996 release "Uncle Sam", directed by William Lustig and written by Larry Cohen. High-concept social commentary and silly elements blend together for a wild ride that will get your patriotism pumping. Enjoy!

Todd thinks it's exploitation fare striving for something a little greater. Craig thinks it's just porn. You be the judge as you listen to this week's discussion of one of the most notorious lesbian vampire flicks of all time.

As Craig says about his childhood carnival experience: "They just look run down and they're just held together with spit and shoe polish... it's like a miracle that I'm not dead." Well, quite a few people end up dead in this movie, but not from the rides. Check it out and let US know what you think!

While we admire Daphne Zuniga's performance and it's easy to root for her as a "scream queen," the film's plot development and pacing leave a bit to be desired, especially compared to other slashers of the era.

We do our best to decode and parse out this low-budget Lynch-ian flick, directed by Adam Simon, the soon-to-be director of rental store shelf staple, Carnosaur. Check it out!

And this one did not disappoint. Come listen to us gush over the trippy, Lynchian and utterly fascinating "Brain Dead" from 1988 - and wonder aloud why we hadn't heard much about this independent horror flick before! Help us rescue it from obscurity. Enjoy!

As we've already reviewed a couple of his films and told stories of his notorious dismissal of the horror genre of which he was so entwined, we decided to pick the most interesting of the remaining films for this week's episode. Stage Fright is certainly an oddity of its time. Billed as a stylish 80's thriller, we found it a bit of a pedestrian bore. Nevertheless, Ravice's performance stands out, and we're honored to pay tribute to...

Chris Rock's Saw not-really-a-sequel vanity project doesn't exactly showcase the comedian's considerable acting talents. Join us as we puzzle through Saw, reimagined as a police procedural - for better or for worse.

Todd gives his review from Jakarta, which also explains the delay in getting this latest episode out. Thanks for your patience, and enjoy!

The whole relationship between artists and its patrons, food and foodie culture is cooked up and served for discussion, critique, and pointed action as one rogue chef (played by Ralph Fiennes) decides he's had enough. Equal parts hilarious, pretentious and unsettling, we clearly both lapped up the wicked dish that director Mark Mylod was serving.

The Manitou falls into that rare space in-between, where it's so well-done and sincerely committed to its wack-a-doodle premise from start to finish that we giddily enjoyed every bizarre, jaw-dropping moment. Where was this Tony Curtis flick all our lives? Why had we not heard of it before? Enjoy your introduction, loyal listeners, and PLEASE let us know your thoughts as well!
