Last week we watched a few new horror movies that were a bit unknown. So, we thought to pick some older movies that were known really well to make up for it. We watched and reviewed a classic Christmas movie that 80s kids grew up on. GREMLINS (1984) starring your lovable fury pal Gizmo voiced by the prolapse video sharing tiktok legend and 80s fame Howie Mandel. When a certain curious pets owner breaks a few very important rules things multiply into green creatures hellbent on mischief. Not to mention Zach Gallgan, Pheobe Cates and a ton of legends like Dick Miller. Since theres no way that we can watch that movie without watching the sequel. We decided to pair it with GREMLINS 2 The New Batch (1990). A movie that returns a lot of the stars from the first movie and throws in a bunch of legendary cameos and jokes to fill the movie. It's a bigger budget Gremlins in a Smart High Rise with some awfully green issues. JOIN US for LOADS of TRIVIA about Gremlins, our last episode this month before we return with a new year and our top movies of 2022.
It's that time of year! Holiday Horror Season! The Christmas horror movies that will tickle your jingle balls all night long. This week we picked a couple of newer indie films to try out. THE KILLING TREE (2022) About a serial killer who is executed for his deeds only to be resurrected by his serial killer lover and accidently transfered into a Christmas tree instead. The Tree goes on a holiday spree and I don't mean shopping. Next we watch and reiew JACK FROST (2022) No... no no.. not the killer snowman movie you might have heard of. The actual fictional Character Jack Frost who is turned into a mystical slasher creatures that smiles and kills everything in his path. Freezing people and cracking wisely at them when they are about to die. Both of these filims were made by the same studio and are both from England.
