This is the end...

January 21, 2023 • 22 mins

As it has been said "All good things must come to an end", in this case, it's just us. We've been on a hiatus for quite a while now, and have had discussions on where the show is going, what our plans are and have come to a decision together. After 10 years we're calling it, and retiring the show. This decision didn't come easy, when you do something weekly for ten years suddenly stopping is quite a change.

October 31, 2022 • 74 mins
It's Halloween again and we're watching...two movies with the same title. Well, we can't find remakes all the time. We're watching the 1986 "Trick or Treat" and 2007's "Trick or Treat" anthology of terrors that includes Pumkinhead Sam, that little burlap headed nightmare. It's a convoluted mess of a heavy-metal curses, werewolf packs, zombie curses and more! This show originally posted Nov...

When A Stranger Calls: 1979 vs 2006

October 30, 2022 • 75 mins
"Have you checked the children?" Just the phrase makes your eye twitch a little. In the days before Creepypasta, there were urban legends passed down by word of mouth. The guys at '40 Going On 14' remember the one this movie is based on, and it's a doozy. However, what nobody told us is that Charles Durning was going to be our hero. Or that 75% of the film adaptation would be the journey of a man in search of Co...

Pinocchio! Disney’s 1940 version vs the 2022 Remake!

September 16, 2022 • 71 mins
I'm a real boy! Not yet. Before you can reach your goal, you first have to watch the original 1940 '#Pinocchio' and the Tom Hanks re-telling from 2022. Only after this can you achieve your real-boyness. At least that's what the blue fairy told us. However, we think she may be just be wanting to sell us an extended car warranty.

Once upon a time there was a corner. In that corner was Johnny Castle. Why was Johnny in that corner? Because nobody puts Baby Houseman there! That's right, we're dancing all dirty-like as we grab Patrick Swayze and Abigail Breslin and spin them around the floor like we just buffered it clean.
