This episode, we dive deep into the bowels of indie filmmaking, for a movie so badly edited, written, directed, acted, sound designed that it can scarcely be believed that it is not a parody, but one man’s passion project, combining his love for Hitchcock, romantic thrillers and environmental issues. That’s right, monsters, on this episode I’ll be discussing the notoriously low budget horror(?) film, BIRDEMIC: SHOCK AND TERROR! In ...

It is the final episode of  “The Summer of Scares” series and I can’t believe it is coming to an end. I hope you all have enjoyed it as much as me. To conclude our series, we have a film that is considered to be the Citizen Kane of horror films, fit to burst with paganism, morality, conservatism, and plenty of singing and general horniness. That’s right monsters, on this episode, I will be covering the iconic folk horror film, THE ...

“The Summer of Scares” series continues, and this week, we have one of the most batshit Roger Corman produced movies ever made (and that’s saying something), full of rapey fish people, tits (obvs), lots of salmon, and an ending that is absolutely banoonies crazy.
