Voidtober LIVES! We continue our BTV Halloween with VOIDTOBER with a few movies that might tickle your murder bones. Starting with a Italian/Mexican horror movie that definitely IS NOT Zombies, but many have considered the first FAST MOVING Zombies in horror. Tarantino and Roth have loved this film but is it all that? NIGHTMARE CITY (1980) Tells the tale of a what happens when a nuclear power plant changes people into blood thirsty hairy scabs who wield weapons and a mouth full of teeth. After reviewing that masterpiece we move on to the reboot of Evil Dead. Where a new group of kids go to help their friend kick a bad heroin addiction but find she's possessed by an ancient evil. One of the more brutal remakes of horror. See what we thought about it compared to the older films and even the TV show. We get in deep for both films and talk about trivia too! Jokes a plenty. JOIN US this week to continue the VOIDTOBER MONTH!
It's Officially VOIDTOBER 2022 Mother Fathers! We are celebrating this years Halloween in style. That's right all month long we will be doing stuff across all platforms. Including Youtube, Twitch & Podcast. So be sure to tune in and also sign up for the Giveaway too! VOIDTOBER BEGINS with our Review & Trivia of two classic horror movies from the 80's. Starting with HELLRAISER (1987). Where a married woman rekindles an old flame with a brother sent to hell and trying to escape some very dark sadomasochist demons known only as the Cenobites. Then we continue with HELLBOUND: Hellraiser II (1988). Where the daughter Kirsty Returns in a mental ward fresh off the heels of banishing the Cenobites, but nobody believes her. Except for one Devious Dr. Channard who has been secretly waiting for this experience his entire life. Join us as we devour the flesh and potatoes off the bones of these films to kick off VOIDTOBER 2022!
This week Christina RETURNS from her vacation, it's our 300th episode and of course Alex will drag Christina through hell with 2 movies from Japan about hell. That's right we review Jigoku (1960) from Director Nobuo Nakagawa. About a group of sinners involved in a very intricate story about Murder, Revenge, Deceit and Adultery that ends up in LITERAL Hell. Then we review Japanese Hell (1999) which is essentially a reboot of the original movie, but with a completely different story. One about a girl who is taken into a cult and all the sins that they commit on people. Which of course ends up in literal HELL too. Both movies are pretty wild and have some pretty cool practical FX that we discuss in depth. JOIN us as we cross the River Sanzu and get our sin on.
We return with Eric Myford as Guest to talk about 3 Obscure Japanese Horror Shorts that are about an hour long each. These are ones that some didn't even make it past VHS. Yes, and most can be watched free on YOUTUBE! However one of them has no subs... First we kick it off with CYCLOPS (1987) about a bunch of mutants living in todays world that are getting gathered up for some nefarious purposes and it all ends in a pretty gross way. Then CONTON (1987) Another splatter fest that is rather homemade about a boy who's going to college and dreams of monsters. His real life starts crossing over into the dream world for a fantastic finish. Then we review THE BOY FROM HELL (2004) From Hideshi Hino's Theater of Horror set of shorts. It's about a boy who dies too early and his mother wants him back so bad she does a ritual to bring him back as a blood thirsty mutant hungry for people. It's a jam packed obscure episode that was a blast. JOIN US!

So Alex decided to torture us this week... WE Watched and Reviewed House of the Dead (2003) & House of the Dead (2005). Two pretty bad horror films from the 2000's. The First one was directed by Uwe Boll infamous for making bad movies. The first one is technically a prequel of the Sega Videogame franchise. Which leads us to a rave on an island where everything including the plot goes terribly wrong. Then in the sequel they replace the island with a college town and a bunch of highly/poorly trained soldiers try to extract the virus from the first zombie for and antidote. This time directed by someone new. So let's get zombied up and dive into 2 bad films? JOIN US!
