Matt's joined by regular guest Jacob Balcom and his cousin Seth Garon, who returns to talk about DEMON COP, the Blood Meridian or The Sound and the Fury
of psychotronic auteur films. Demon Copseems to be the tragic story of
a widower who becomes the host of a demon of retribution & changes
into a beast with the moon to stalk the members of Denver/Aurora Hills
gangs. A virtually impenetrable web of exposition, non-sequitur scenes,
and kaleidoscopic plot that simply must been seen to be believed.
IT'S HERE!
Our final Halloween episode of the run and we've got a doozy. Joseph Dufresne, creator & host to TV and the Internet's Uncle Eerie Lee Shivers, joins us to talk about horror hosts of the past and today, Halloween annual must-watch classic films, and Mark (FEEDERS) Polonia's 2009 HALLOWEENIGHT.
Matt is joined by Matt Mair Lowery, writer of Dark Horse Comics' LIFEFORMED,
and Jason Farrell to talk about Matt's 2nd volume of his YA alien
invasion opus and all things comics...and Fred Olen Ray's 1980 cinematic
train wreck ALIEN DEAD, where a houseboat in a Florida Swamp meets a
meteorite that creates flesh-eating zombies...that look like last-minute
Halloween costumes. We've said it before and we'll say it again: ED
WOOD GOT SCREWED!
Matt is joined by Devin Bruce and Andrew Shaw to discuss TALES FROM THE QUADEAD ZONE, a shot-on-video horror anthology from 1987.
This flick plays like a Tales from the Dark Side episode that was locked in a hot car during a heatwave: loopy Casio themes, cam-mounted spotlights, and non-professional actors make for a one-of-a-kind viewing experience.
Matt, Joe, and Jacob do another in-person episode. This time Matt shared AFTER LAST SEASON and we talked about our feelings afterward. If you haven't seen it...do? I guess? You'll know another survivor when you meet them: a glazed look in their eyes, random small talk, and an aversion to '90s computer animation.
Your sculpture makes me want to stab my marshmallow face with an icicle.
Next week, we'll be doing something a little different. We'll be watching a movie for the first time together and then recording our show immediately after (sort of like how we did with F.A.R.T.: The Movie, but 'tapping out' isn't an option this time).
This time, Joe and Jacob will come together to watch 2009's After Last Season...a movie with a cat-on-a-Casio soundtrack, a cardboard and paper MRI machine, and 'cutting edge' computer animation straight out of 1990's The Mind's Eye series. It appears that YT has had to pull the full film down, but you can find it if you roll your sleeves up and look.
Also, Matt dug up the final track that the guys were wrapping up when
the band Ex-Hustlers went on (what turned out to be permanent) hiatus.
He edited together a final version of the various mixes and even made a
vintage MTV-style music video for it. Enjoy.
Matt is joined by Jesse and John Morgan to discuss this James Bryan (Don't Go Into the Woods Alone) directed, Renee Harmon (Frozen Scream) written bit of vigilante sleaze.
- There is no Part I, by the way.
- I don't think PTSD-sploitation has been officially coined yet...so "dibs!"
- Starring Chris Mitchum, Renee Harmon, and Aldo Ray.
Jesse provided a haiku poem: the grenade slips down use the gun, never bullets transitions are for punks
Guests Jason Farrell and Devin Bruce join the show to discuss a shot-on-video obscurity from 1989. Ginger Lynn Allen takes on Beelzebub himself via his wife/her sister. Ol' Scratch is so worried, he needs his jester to distract him with 2 stories about awesome sinners.
Argento & Bava's light palettes are stolen and incompetently aped...voices are demonically incomprehensible...sad clowns kick the bucket...and holy warriors are white ninjas? Hoo-boy.
For more from our guests...
Devin Bruce: Apocalypse Kow
Jason Farrell: Douglas & Dragons
