Did you know that inside this amazing lenticular VHS box is an actual movie? It's true!
When a truck of "Genetic Material" hits a truck carrying notorious serial killer "Jack Frost" in the sleepy little town of Snowmanton, an immortal killer snowman is born, and orgy of Christmas themed mayhem is set off.
(Also, this was great for the video store prank where you'd swap all the Michael Keaton movies with it, and traumatize some little kids.)
Matt and Tristan talk Jack Frost.

Thursday Dec 04, 2025
One of the standout characters of the muck-man invasion of the seventies, Swamp Thing has been many things to many people over the years. He was a monster, an environmental activist, but most importantly a plant. Watching him punch monsters, punch goons, and punch scientists, I couldn't help but think to myself...what incredibly plant-like behavior. Matt and Tristan answer the eternal question, is Swamp Thing a rubber suit who dreamed he was a man, or a man who dreamed he was a rubber suit?

The year is 2025. The only entertainment is Endgame. It's like the Running Man, but boring. Plus, you can just take off half way through and nobody says anything about it. Matt and Tristan enjoy the dirt-bike and machine-gun-fight delivery vehicle known as, Endgame.

Would I say that Newlydeads has a modern sensibility that really speaks to an enlightened audience? Not really.

Matt and Tristan talk about the movie with the least GLAD nominations for 1988, Newlydeads.

Severed ties was originally called "Army". Which is the kind of pun that works way better once you've already seen the movie. So Severed Ties it became. The specific ties being severed are limbs. They then grow back with a magic serum. Plus, they're evil and kill people. Matt and Tristan talk about one of 1992's best killer limb movie, Severed Ties.

Friday Aug 08, 2025
Friday Aug 08, 2025
Sometimes you see a movie that is so close to being a classic that it makes you sad. This is one of those movies. There's so much to love in this movie, but somehow it just never reaches its potential. Just like me. Matt and Tristan talk about the 1989 zombie sex-comedy-zombie-horror, Night Life.
