    202 - Ghost Ship (2002) Review

    202 - Ghost Ship (2002) Review

    Salvagers come across a lost ship dating back to 1962 that is still floating aimlessly in the Bering Sea and soon realize its dead inhabitants may still haunt the ship.

    Ghost Ship has been a movie that Bryan and Shane have seen several times and cannot agree on it and it couldn't be a better time to discuss it. The movie has a great cast and appears to have an interesting ghost story. Will watching it again change their minds or will they still be divided? Mikey "Bratwurst" Benanti hops on the podcast to take a side. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: Deadly Western (2023)

    Final Friday: Deadly Western (2023)

    The sheriff of a western town wakes up with no memory and awaits a deadly group of outlaws coming to town.

    Deadly Western is a western action movie from our favorite director, Geno McGahee. While we're used to great horror movies from McGahee, this time he brings a western action movie that has a very different tone from the horror movies that are always so much fun. Where will this film line up among his movies? Watch the movie and catch our review.

    201 - It Comes at Night (2017) Review

    201 - It Comes at Night (2017) Review

    As a mysterious sickness spreads, a man established a structured order of living with his wife and son and takes in another family in need of water and shelter.

    It Comes at Night is a deep movie that peers into the lives of a family who has recently lost a loved one while isolating from a mysterious sickness and how much they can trust others and their intentions. This is a powerful movie in how quiet and eerie it is. The character dialogue and facial expressions carry the story of two families who live together to benefit each other and must obey a set of rules to ensure the safety of both families. The movie poses a lot of questions and the character intentions aren't known based on how much one family can really trust the other as well as if it's even possible to isolate with another family and be safe. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: Robert and the Toymaker (2017)

    Final Friday: Robert and the Toymaker (2017)

    In Nazi Germany, a Toymaker is sought after by the Gestapo after acquiring a book that animates objects and brings them to life.

    It's time to discuss the next installment in the Robert series, Robert and the Toymaker. This movie took us by surprise as it opens with a tense 30-minute opening that felt so different from the tone of the previous movies, but was very entertaining. The film also barely features Robert and focuses on other dolls who are also animated by the Toymaker, who is a big focus. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    200 - ABCs of Death 2 (2014) Review

    200 - ABCs of Death 2 (2014) Review

    26 short films that all depict death in different ways.

    The 200th episode has arrived and we are celebrating in the only way that makes sense. We are discussing ABCs of Death 2 which is a horror movie anthology and a sequel to The ABCs of Death, which we discussed on our 100th episode. Several of our friends hop on to discuss these horror short films in bloody detail. Some of these movies are interpretive, some are direct, but all are crazy. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: Bull Shark (2022)

    Final Friday: Bull Shark (2022)

    A small Texas town is terrorized by a shark killing all who go in the lake.

    Bull Shark had a very different tone than what we were expecting from a shark, creature feature movie. While we have seen some of the elements in this movie before, it focuses on a deep alcohol storyline that does change the expectations of the movie. This film isn't a normal shark movie as it focuses on a family drama along with a killer shark in a lake. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    199 - Sweet Movie (1974) Review

    199 - Sweet Movie (1974) Review

    Miss Canada wins a pageant for virgins and gets married to a wealthy milk tycoon, which she escapes to surround herself in the sweet, chaotic world around her.

    It is the end of Fucked Up February and there's no better opportunity to discuss a movie that we have been bringing up for years. Sweet Movie is a satire, full of disgusting scenes that made us question what we were watching when we first saw it years ago. After rewatching it, nothing has changed, and it is just as disturbing as it was on the first watch. Damian, The Eggman, LaGrasta joins us to discuss this rollercoaster of a movie that is messy, nonsensical, but mostly sweet. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: Hunt to Kill (2010)

    Final Friday: Hunt to Kill (2010)

    U.S. Border Patrol agent, Jim Rhodes and his daughter, are taken hostage and asked to guide a group of criminals looking for revenge through mountainous Montana.

    We're happy to be discussing another Stone Cold Steve Austin movie! While we thought we would be getting more Eric Roberts in Hunt to Kill, it was still a fun watch and it's always a pleasure to see Stone Cold kick ass in the mountains. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    198 - The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) (2015) Review

    198 - The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) (2015) Review

    A failing prison warden, attempts to solve his problems by creating a 500-person human centipede out of his prisoners based on the idea from The Human Centipede movies.  

    The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) is not a fun watch. This is the second time we watched this film and we wanted to finish the series, however, we were not looking forward to it. The film is uncertain if it wants to be a comedy or a horror. It most likely wants to be both, but falls short in both areas and comes off as annoying. While we're not a big fan of these movies, this one was definitely not for us. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: The Final (2010)

    Final Friday: The Final (2010)

    After years of hardship, a group of students enact revenge on the popular students who've bullied them through high school.

    The Final is a movie that Bryan and Shane watched years ago and really enjoyed how deep the movie was. Will they have the same reaction years later? This is a film that deals with dark subject matter related to bullying and poor family dynamics. There is an interesting revenge element to the movie that makes it entertaining and where all character intentions are called into question. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    197 - August Underground (2001) Review

    197 - August Underground (2001) Review

    Two murderers on a rampage record their killings with a camera.

    Fucked Up February is here and we are kicking it off with August Underground. This is a movie that depicts two serial killers filming their murderous rampage and how they torture their victims. It is shot in the style of a snuff film and we can only describe it as 100% shock value. It's shot very grainy and gritty for a realistic effect. This isn't the first time we've seen the movie and we thought it was only appropriate to discuss it during Fucked Up February as it's definitely not one of our favorites. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: Death Rink (2019)

    Final Friday: Death Rink (2019)

    A killer is stalking the staff of a roller skating rink after hours.

    Death Rink was not what we expected at all. Where we thought the roller skating rink would be killing a bunch of skaters or that a killer would be stalking skaters while they were skating, it's actually the opposite. The rink is closed and the staff is being killed after hours. With a name like Death Rink, we thought we were in for something else entirely. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    196 - Calvaire (2004) Review

    196 - Calvaire (2004) Review

    Marc Stevens is on the road performing prior to Christmas when his van breaks down in the woods near a remote inn. He'll soon realize the innkeeper and a nearby village inhabit an odd set of individuals.

    Calvaire was a movie that Bryan and Shane couldn't wait to watch again for the odd characters and for one specific scene that is so crazy, it can't be forgotten. Out of all the French horror movies we talk about, we haven't mentioned this film, but it's an entertaining watch and will make you never want to travel in the backwoods south of France. 

    We enjoyed having Scott Hucke and Damian "The Eggman" LaGrasta stop by and review this movie with us.

    Final Friday: Samurai Cop (1991)

    Final Friday: Samurai Cop (1991)

    Los Angeles has been corrupted by a dangerous Yakuza gang called the Katana who have taken over the drug market. It's up to 2 police officers, Joe Marshall and Frank Washington, to put an end their drug trade.

    Samurai Cop was an absolute blast. It had us cracking up the whole duration of the movie and although a mess in so many ways, the absurd nature of the film made us love it. Between the jokes, the action, and the ridiculous characters, this movie was so enjoyable. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    195 - Infinity Pool (2023) Review

    Struggling author, James Foster and his wife, are vacationing in a beach resort in La Tolqa, when they get into a deadly accident that reveals the resort's dark tourism.

    Infinity Pool is a thought-provoking vision of dark and deadly tourism from Brandon Cronenberg. Starring Alexander Skarsgard and Mia Goth, the portray characters on different ends of experience as it comes to taking adventure of what La Tolqa has to offer and create a strong tension throughout this movie.

    Final Friday: Furry Nights (2016)

    Final Friday: Furry Nights (2016)

    After a teenager mistakes a "furry" for an animal and kills it, a group of "furries" seek revenge on the teenager and his friends.

    Furry Nights was a very interesting concept to say the least and the concept is creepy. There's something about a bunch of people (if you can consider them people) with animal masks, congregating in the woods that is scary. While this movie was a bit of a rollercoaster, it did offer a fun watching experience and gave everyone a fair warning not to mess around with "furries."

    194 - Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey (2023) Review

    Pooh and Piglet start killing all who enter Hundred Acre Wood after their close friend, Christopher Robin leaves them for college.

    Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey was one of the movies we wanted to watch for the longest time since it came out in early 2023. We couldn't wait to watch how they'd make beloved children's characters evil and violent. After watching, it was our high level of excitement that led us to being completely disappointment. In every way, this movie did not deliver and left us thinking this could have been so entertaining and fun. Watch the movie and catch our review.

    Final Friday: Camp Blood 4 (2016)

    Final Friday: Camp Blood 4 (2016)

    A group of friends stop over at Camp Blackwood prior to going to a concert only to be stalked by a killer in the campgrounds.

    The Camp Blood series has been one of our favorite low budget slasher series to watch. It's always been a joy to kick back and watch a clown killer in the woods with the boys and a couple of beers. Camp Blood 4, however, is just not it. The pacing and feel are completely different from the previous 4 movies and it doesn't have the same charm. It's possible others may disagree, but we highly doubt it.

    193 - Scream 3 (2000) Review

    193 - Scream 3 (2000) Review

    A Ghostface killer has returned and is killing off the set of Stab 3, the 3rd installment of the series based off the Woodsboro murders. Sydney and her friends arrive at the set to try and put a stop to the murders.

    We've long said that Scream 3 was our least favorite of the series, but it's still a fun movie. The cast of crazy characters we know and love are back and the theme of the murders happening to the cast of Stab 3 makes for an interesting sequel. While it doesn't have the same parody elements, unique kills, and wild twist as the first two movies, Scream 3 is still a fun watch in its own right. Our friends, Nick and Matt, join us to discuss Scream 3.

    Final Friday: Hard Ticket to Hawaii (1987)

    Final Friday: Hard Ticket to Hawaii (1987)

    Agents and their friends try to put an end to the reign of a local drug kingpin after they come into the possession of diamonds, shootouts break out, and a deadly contaminated snake gets loose.

    Hard Ticket to Hawaii was an absolute treat and an amazing movie to kick off 2024. There may be tons of similar exploitation movies out there, but it's films like this that are so devoid of plot that make them so fun to watch with the bros. Andy Sidaris certainly has a style and this movie had us entertained all the way through. Watch the movie and catch our review.
