Jordan and JB go in depth on one of their all time favorite monster movies, 1988's "Pumpkinhead"!
⚠️ Wrong Turn was released 20 years ago! But is it as good as we remember? Let's revisit this backwoods horror tale to discuss all the things that work well here (such as Stan Winston's effects), as well as where we think things could have been improved upon. We'll also choose which character we think was most deserving to die, so stick around until the end.

The wild success of the first Friday the 13th movie had Paramount Pictures frothing at the mouth for a sequel but the initial idea was to essentially treat the franchise as an anthology where each movie would involve an entirely new scary story.
Some of the producers on the original film had a much different idea that the sequel should involve Jason Voorhees even though his appearance in the original film was essentially done in a nightmare sequence that was never expected to go any further than that movie.
Steve Miner, who was an associate producer on the original film ran with that idea and he signed onto direct the next movie after Sean Cunningham opted not to return to the franchise he helped start.
Miner came up with an idea that would carry the story five years into the future after the events in the original film as a new group of camp counselors are arriving to train for the summer ahead but they are completely unaware of the danger lurking in the woods….
In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we’re going to put on mother’s sweater and sharpen the pitchfork as we review the 1981 sequel “Friday the 13th Part 2”….

Originally inspired by a creepy poem by Ed Justin that also served as the basis for the Misfits song of the same name, the DeLaurentis Entertainment Group began development for a film about a vengeful spirit conjured to exact justice for those who have been wronged.
The studio eventually brought the project to famed creature creator Stan Winston — best known for his work in films such as ‘The Terminator’ as well as ‘Aliens’ and ‘Terminator 2,’ which earned him several Academy Awards — in order to develop the right look for the monster in the movie.
Winston was immediately hooked by the story and decided to use this particular vehicle for his directorial debut. While he was working on the story with another writer, Winston actually allowed his team to help craft the look for the creature and one of his employees actually ended up wearing the suit in the movie.
The end result was a story about a grief stricken father calling on a local witch to conjure a creature to seek vengeance on a group of teenagers who accidentally killed his son.
In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we’re going to head up to Razorback Hollow and dig up some bones as we look back on the 1988 cult classic horror film “Pumpkinhead”…

On this mega-cursed Super B*wl weekend, we don't care about no stinkin' big game, we want the biggest freakin' boy you got, and folks... We got him: James Cameron's 1991 epic, perhaps the greatest sequel of all time, TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY, discussed alongside Los Angeles activist Albert Corado.
Is TERMINATOR 2 the greatest action film ever made? Is it one of the best L.A. films ever made? Is James Cameron toying with anti-cop sentiments for the aesthetic, or is homeboy legitimately ACAB?
