This week we're getting put back in the retirement home. No not because we're old millennial podcasters, but because we're watching the latest Shudder release. The Rule of Jenny Pen features Geoffrey Rush as a judge being physically and psychologically tortured by John Lithgow with a puppet. We also give a mini review of A Cursed Man and talk film school films with New Zealand's Once Were Warriors.   Plus we announce our movie pick...

This week, by listener request, we go back to the 1950s with one of the genre classics. Based on the John P. Campbell story, "Who Goes There?" and would later inspire John Carpenter's 1982 masterpiece The Thing. We get into the comparisons of the film and discuss the context of the looming Red Scare and McCarthyism. We also spend a lot of time talking about dog wrestling. So, something for everyone.    Plus we announce our guests ...

It's the true story of St. Patty's Day! Saint Patrick didn't chase the snakes out of Ireland; he buried the original vampire under some rocks and that's why we all eat cabbage today because it looks like tiny boulders. Chat is this true? Guess you'll have to listen to this episode and watch this film to find out if that Bram Stoker was full of it. Also, find out if Brian drinks enough to attempt an Irish accent.    Plus we announce...

From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to very smelly Sharkenstein, our patrons having won last week's Showdown have decided to punish us appropriately. From the sick and twisted mind of Mark Polonia comes the tale of Tri-State Area terror. But not really. It's another junk slapdash video to trick high people on streaming using one of the three magic SEOs phrases of shark, Amityville or Bigfoot. We don't like it, but somehow it all ends ...

One part Evil Dead, one part Michigan, two parts chili. An insane independent film starring the drummer of The Stooges and the Michigan alt music scene of the late 80s / early 90s. We've got punk, rockabilly, country and two songs about chili. Plus a bunch of gags ripped directly from the pocket of Sam Raimi and giant stop motion wendigo from the Harryhausen school of monsters. All this and more in one of the most fun buried gems w...

By listener request, we watched the Shudder release from New Zealand, Grafted. Brian is sick and Steve is siiiiccck and this film gets wild with it. Weird science and body horror mix with huge logic leaps as a student descends into madness. *hands on hips; school motivational speaker voice* And perhaps she learns, being pretty isn't all its cracked up to be.   Plus we reveal our March Horror Movie Showdown Topic.   Find Us Online- ...

What happens when you mix a Wild West stunt show with Vampire the Masquerade and then remove the stunts? You get Glenn Danzig's second feature. Brian and Steve are once again joined by fellow misfit Hallow Ian to talk about Goth Neil Breen. From the baffling perpetual zooms, the lack of anything happening, missing story points and complete absence of soundtrack, it's safe to say, "every frame a mistake." You can bet your fangs on i...

Usually we're all about battling out to find the best, this month we're looking for the worst. Worst acting, worst directing, worst scripts, worst reasons to make a film all culminating in ...  Jacob's Ladder (2019) vs Martyrs (2015) vs Night of the Demons (2009)   Fresh off an early loss in the Regal Ruckus can Brian climb the ladder to win gold, or will his demons pull him down? Will Steve's suffering of not winning end, or does...

They're also joined by the director of the recently released film FEET OF DEATH James Chick. They talk about the locales of the PNW and how to shoot a good looking independent feature for less than a new car.

Plus they announce the movies for the February Showdown

Are a bunch of little clay guys from the 80s scary to a 10 year old in the 2020's? Then Brian's youngest M***** M***** gives her thoughts on all the holiday specials she's watched including the newish Grinch with Benedict Cumberbatch and...

It's your annual gift of a Hop Nation USA reunion episode. Steve has once again called upon his past co-host Adam to test their friendship with a bad Christmas horror movie. This year, it's one of the worst. A film that's never made it past the VHS era and only exists as aging temps and bad digitizations on the internet. The overly subversive, edgelord take on Elf mythos. An irredeemable downer film that constantly finds new lows t...
