Scooby-Doo and Batman: The Brave and the Bold (Fabian Lapham)

Notice me, Senpai, notice me! This week we're fresh outta the Jeff Mines with a 2023 release, Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls. Ready your amulets as Martin Dunlop and I enter a world of ghouls, spells, deeply irritating personal quirks and awesome puppets. WARNING: contains discussions of rock and roll power ballads.

I guess the podcast has been....re-animated??

Everyone's favourite Jeffrey Combs podcast returns for the long-awaited (what I am calling) Season Two! And with a bang- me and comedian Tim Clark cover the third film in the Re-Animator trilogy, 2003's Beyond Re-Animator! Come for the bisecting, stay for the bad Irish accents and Tim's frankly haunting Oscars knowledge. 

What could have been an interesting 80s slasher is actually a pretty tedious 2000s GrimGore™ slog, as me and Martin Dunlop look at 2007's Brutal. Deeply strange music choices, a very convoluted deux ex machina and a town in Nowhere, USA- Brutal has it all for your early-oughts horror needs. And Jeff has a new hat!  

One of the more divisive episodes, evidently! Me and writer Jeremy Herbert have quite different opinions about this episode's movie, 2012's Would You Rather, featuring Jeff in 'dapper, refined sadist' mode. But hey, we all love a bit of healthy debate here at Camp Re-Animates. We also dig into a special After Dark version of that IMDB game I still don't have a name for- Re-Animates gets blue! 

This week, me and Timothy Clark answer some FAQ about Castle Freak (1995), like: Is it more of family drama with a creepy dungeon dude dropped in? How do you escape an Italian jail? Did The Duchess win Best Costume Design at the 2008 Oscars? (Yes; Easily; Tim's A Nerd So Yes). Come run around Le Castle Del Reilly with us! Molto bene!

Join me and Rob and Lucy Caruana for a look at the Haunted Hill House...House on the Hill...Haunted House on the Haunted Hill...a movie, anyway. A movie with scarcely any Jeff but enough Chris Kattan and killer 90s lines for anyone. Also: zoetropes. 

Kicking off 2022 with an absolutely corker- I mean, the film [Sharkman / Hammerhead: Shark Frenzy (2005)] is rubbish but a great time was had on the pod by me and my guests Josh and Christian from the Welcome to Patchwork podcast! Jeff is in classic Mad Scientist mode and we discuss sock etiquette, good shark names and what to do when something explodes.

It's a Creature Feature! Me and Nick Mason (The Weekly Planet) check out "A Quartet of Creatures", S1/E3 of Ultraman- a show that is NOT Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. There's a lot of bad costumes and fight scenes but more importantly there's a lot of Jeff! We also look at the monster mid-life crisis, gross trivia games and why on Earth this show exists in the first place.
