Each episode, we choose a favorite obscure or semi-obscure horror movie, and run it down, scene by scene filling in plot hole, and connecting dropped story threads where they might occur...

When some adult children set fire to their summer camp's incredibly flammable caretaker, he emerges several years later covered in burns over 100% of his body, and filled with a lust for revenge and a penchant for scissor type weapons. Join Matt and Tristan for the Meatballs of slasher films, The Burning.

Not one scene of Farmer Vincent making his eponymous fritters. Ruined the experience for me. 1 out of 5 stars.

Jurassic Park really screwed up when they chose to use CGI instead of hand puppets. Luckily Carnosaur was there to remedy that mistake. I'd go out on a limb and say that this is the best puppet based movie about Diane Ladd creating a virus that impregnates women with dinosaur eggs. Join Matt and Tristan for a movie that redefined what could be done with forced perspective rubber dinosaurs for an entire generation, Carnosaur.

I'm really sorry about this episode. I think Matt and I were going through something. Critters Attack is a made-for-TV movie, and didn't deserve how badly we screamed about it. This is literally the most negative episode of the podcast and if you want to skip it nobody will blame you. Apologies to anyone involved in this movie, I'm sure you are fine people except that one guy, but I promised Matt I wouldn't talk about him.
As an apology... Critter puppets look great. Main actress is great. Also, the house they were in for that one scene looked really cozy.

Everybody knows that once your horror franchise starts to lose steam you head to space. Pinhead in Space, Leprechaun In Space, Regan from the Exorcist in Space, Damien From the Omen in Space, The Wickerman in Space, and of course Suspiria in Space or Spacespiria.
For this entry in the franchise, it is possible there was a small influence from Aliens, in that the script was entirely lifted from Aliens. But...with Critters. It's probably the worst of the first 4 Critters movies, making it approximately the 4th best movie ever made.

As the Critters franchise begins to succumb to budget cuts, we find them scraping the bottom of the barrel for actors and winding up with talentless nobodies like Leonardo what's-his-name. But the human actors aren't who we're here to see, we're all here for our favorite fuzzy murder-puppets the Crites, back again for more comestible chaos. Also, this time their arms work! Join Matt and Tristan for the low budget buffet that is Critters 3.

Those pesky Crites are back, and this time they have a bigger FX budget, but not quite enough money for Dee Wallace. Still somehow probably the best installment of the franchise, which of course, is the greatest film franchise in history. Better even than the Munchie expanded universe, or Munchiverse to its legions of fans.

You'd think there would have to be a better way to see hot guys in their underpants in this day and age, but there isn't, so we were forced to watch Dreamaniac for our yearly allotment of hot guys in underpants posing like Morrissey. Join us for the worst delivery vehicle for fully waxed dudes available on sub-par DVD, Dreamaniac.

The Howling pitches a far-fetched world where most people are angry feral monsters just out for themselves. Crazy right? But some of them have fur. Basically, it's like Anthrocon right before lunch time. Join Matt, Tristan and a group of unemployed Roger Corman actors for 1981's most inexplicably revered film, The Howling.
