Fun Box Monster Podcast

This eye opening documentary show the true dangers inherent in running an independent bakery. If it's not rats and shady business men, it's a murderous Gary Busey turned into cookie golem by black magic. Matt and Tristan talk Gingerdead Man!

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. 

We check in on what new shenanigans our old buddy the shape gets up to this time. This week Matt and Tristan pick up every stitch for the Samhain masterpiece, Halloween III. 

Would I say that Newlydeads has a modern sensibility that really speaks to an enlightened audience? Not really. Would I say that it has several exposed breasts and someone running neck first into a two person wood saw? Yes. 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. 

Virus is a movie directed by an FX legend. Directing...maybe not so much. Matt and Tristan talk Virus. 

When it comes to weird Christian themed monster movies featuring Billy Zane and a guy from Wings, it just doesn't get much better than this. Matt and Tristan talk Demon Knight. 

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. 

Based on the Stevie Wonder song of the same name, Superstition fills in all the parts of the song where nobody was getting cut in half by sentient window frames. Matt and Tristan talk about the surprisingly fun 1982 haunted pond movie, Superstition.
