This “Vampire Bite” clocks in at about an hour long, and it is… Well, honestly, we can’t tell you how it is, we were fairly sloshed at the time of recording, and we don’t remember a lot of it!We do remember having a lot of fun, though, and we hope you do, too! So grab some snacks, get comfy, and get ready to hear us Yell about this delightful trainwreck of a movie.

    WE’RE BACK! Sorry about the unexpected break, listeners! As Andrew will tell you in this episode’s into, our household came down with a case of The Plague near the end of December, preventing us from getting this episode edited and uploaded until now! We’re all fully recovered now, and will be working on our backlog in order to get caught up as soon as possible! Until then, we hope you enjoy listening to us talk about what might be the most enjoyable movie we’ve watched up to this point.… Also, we do a lot of swooning in this episode. Everyone in this movie is REALLY pretty, okay???

Did we think it was trying too hard to be deep? Does it somehow manage to treat its women worse than any film we’ve watched so far? Listen and find out!

    Welcome, Children of the Night, to our very first VAMPIRE BITES episode! Vampire Bites are shorter episodes released in between our main ones, where we watch films that don’t QUITE fit our format, but are relevant enough that we still want to talk about them.For our first Vampire Bite, we’re talking about The Monster Squad! It’s not a Dracula adaptation, but it does feature Ol’ Drac as the main antagonist, and we’re able to find some more parallels throughout. We always have fun watching this movie, and we hope you have fun listening!If you’re not already following us on social media, be sure to check out our Facebook page, our Twitter feed, and our Patreon.
