It's Pride Month! So we picked a couple of Queer Friendly Horror Films by Writer/Director Ron Oliver who made a few horror movies we wanted to talk about this week! HELLO MARY LOU Prom Night 2 (1987) & Prom Night 3 The Last Kiss (1990). One he directed and both that he wrote. One of the two is Alex's favorite movie of recent times. This is Christina's first time watching them. About a girl from the 50s who was bound for hell and was accidentally burned alive on Prom Night and has come to the future to exact he revenge on the school and her past friends. Both of these movies pay heavy homages to some of the great slashers of the 80's and we discuss a lot about Ron Oliver's life and both of his movies. JOIN US!
It's Pride Month! So we picked a couple of Gay Slasher films for the month to celebrate. One wielding a Sickle and another sticking people with a Pitchfork. Oohhhhhhh yeah.

Then we jump into the reviews of HELLBENT (2004) a killer is on the loose in West Hollywood and he collecting heads. He seems to only kill those who are gay.

It about a mute demonic girl that causes an entire orphanage to go crazy and attack everyone.

Are all movies and their experiences supposed to be the same? Or should we be open to them more? Christina and Alex discuss this about some of the current movies that have caused some waves in the scene. Plus, this week we delve into a Home Movie of sorts and a Faux Horror Documentary. The Home movie tape is narrated and directed by a family that unbeknownst to them are being hunted by their children who are... different.. Eventually the tape becomes the kids sadistic home movie for the times. That's right we are reviewing HOME MOVIE (2008)! Then onto another REAL LIFE.. (JK) documentary about a small border town in Arizona that has a mass murder on its hands.. Was it the local illegal immigrant or something far more sinister that has taken the town? We review SAVAGELAND (2015). All in one big episode. JOIN US!
Christina returns to talk about two movies that are from Spain & France. The mutant kind of movies. One from Alex De La Iglesia that just released on Severin for 4k UHD called ACCION MUTANTE (1993). He's the guy who directed The Last Circus and many other crazy wonderfully weird Spanish films. It's a story about a group of disabled terrorist hellbent on destroying the beautiful people of the galaxy in the future. Then we review a movie that isn't talked about a lot that IFC picked up in 2009 called Mutants (2009). This one is like a zombie horror film but it's a mutant virus that turns people into weird black eyed & black blooded weirdos that screech and tear people apart. Is it a forgotten gem.? Are either of these? We discuss both and what we think with loads of trivia. JOIN US!
This week we have a special guest all the way from Uranus. The Starship aka Nyq Bonaventura. Also known as one of Alex's best friends and great debaters. Some call him a Master Debater of the Universe and beyond. We just call him Nyq and he's a fan of a movie that he and Alex break down together. TERRIFIER 2 (2022) "After being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to the timid town of Miles County where he targets a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night." That's right Alex finally was backed into a corner by Nyq to not only watch it once but 2 times to see why he liked or disliked the movie. They both talk in depth about the movies up and downs in this audio orgasmic soundscape that will definitely blow you mind into another universe and out it's back side. Be prepared for a long talk about both of their opinions on this one.
Alex picked up some movies recently and it just so happened to be around the release of Teen Wolf (2023) Movie. So we decided to watch where the original comedy movie it originated from.. Plus it's sequel. All the way back in (1985) w/ Michael J. Fox as a werewolf. in TEEN WOLF (1985) Yep, that's right. Scott Howard is an awkward teen who just can't seem to fit in. His basketball team sucks and he's trying to date the prettiest girl in school. One day he transforms into a werewolf and his whole life as well as the school changes forever. Plus, we take on the even lesser talked about cash grab of a films called TEEN WOLF TOO (1987) Which replaced Michael J. Fox with a very young Jason Bateman. No, He's not dealing heroin in the ozarks, He's getting a boxing Scholarship in College and is the cousin of Scott Howard named Todd Howard. With a returning cast of characters and hi-jinx like the first only with a heaping of disaster thrown in. JOIN US as we review both movies, spill all the wonderful trivia and throw all the bad jokes you can handle at you.
