Before Beltane, on Walpurgisnacht the witches all gather for a night on bald mountain. A holiday designated by Anton LeVay as among the most important of all the satanic celebrations, fair and foul creatures dance with abandon, committing black magic, blood sacrifice, debauchery, and various lewd acts, on this night that brings the realm of hell closest to this Earth!

Anyway, here's an '80s teen comedy about a high school g...

To celebrate 4/20, Eric smokes a bong, and we discuss the classic anti-marijuana film from 1936, Reefer Madness. Just to make things interesting, we also discuss the musical from the early 2000s starring Kristen Bell and Alan Cumming.

Despite being just a Showtime original, the film version of the off-Broadway musical is kind of a surprise, being unreasonably well-made and goofy fun!

In this classic episode, we take a look at the 2017 fantasy/parable film, mother! directed by Darren Aronofsky!

In this classic episode, we take a look at the 1979 James Bond in space movie, Moonraker! Not one of the series finest offerings, but it does have campy Roger Moore and Richard Kiel biting through a steel cable.

This re-boot of the 1989 action classic stars Jake Gyllenhaal's abs in a nonsense tale about a seaside resort or something. People are punched, hit by trucks, exploded and abducted onto a sandbar. Conor McGregor's butt is a guest star, and there's a tree named Fred. Pain don't hurt, but this film hurt us.

A smutty film based on the smutty book based on Twilight. It stars Dakota Johnson's nipples, Jamie Dornan's abs, and long drawn-out contract negotiations. It's heartily disliked by the actual BDSM community because of its depiction of this paraphilia being based on questionable consent, and on old fashioned notions that kinks are based on psychological problems, or childhood trauma. We watched it so you don't have t...

In this classic episode, we finish our journey through the Twilight Saga with the Breaking Dawns, or Bella and Edward Play a Lot of Chess, Break a Bed and Have an Uncanny Valley Baby. Also, the best sequence in the entirety of the franchise happens... but it's all just a dream.

What do you get when you mix Jean Claude Van Damme, Mickey Rourke, and flakey NBA forward Dennis Rodman, blend them with 1960s cult television show The Prisoner, and garnish with a Bengal Tiger?

You get this surprisingly entertaining cinematic cocktail that goes down smooth with no bitter after-taste!

Between discussions about performing on tiny stages, wretched autoimmune skin diseases, and burlesque artistry, we discuss the 1958 beatnik/rock-n-roll/drag racing/drug dealing/ film noir starring Dick Contino, the greatest accordion player in history.

There's racing! Romance! Sexist threats! Pizza! Goons! An apple! and so much more in this black and white classic of the drive-in era!

In this classic episode, we start our journey through the Twilight Saga, with the first movie in the sparkle vampire versus wolfboy tale of romance. Eric absolutely loves these, but will claim it's only because of the Rifftrax versions (sure Eric... we believe you)

In this classic episode, we take a look at two ant-centric sci fi movies - THEM (1954) and Phase IV (1974)! One has lots of exploding ants (and everything) and might possibly just be about communism and the other has super smart hive mind ants that want to take over the world. Either way, we welcome our insect overlords.
