We are kicking off a whole new series on plant horror entitled BOTANICAL TERROR! On this, Part I - Sinister Sprouts, we begin by discussing the very beginnings of plant horror.

Join us as we discuss a variety of 50s science fiction/horror films including The Thing from Another World (1951), The Thing (1982), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), Body Snatchers (1993), The Invasion (2007), Voodoo Island (1957), From Hell It Came (1957), and The Woman Eater (1958).

On this episode we embarked on an intriguing exploration of a specific niche within cinema: bad Christmas movies. Our focus centered on two distinct categories within this theme. First, we examined a few b-movies (Elves and Santa Claws) notorious for their subpar production - the kind that are so poorly made, they loop around to being entertaining in their own right. Think questionable acting, laughable special effects, and plots so absurd they become fascinating. Second, we shifted gears to Christmas movies where the joy of the holiday is drastically undermined for the characters, leading to gruesome outcomes. Here, the traditional warmth and cheer of the season are upended, resulting in narratives where Christmas, instead of being a time of celebration, becomes a backdrop for chaos, carnage, and nightmares. Films discussed include À l'intérieur aka Inside, I Trapped The Devil, and Hosts. Through this dual lens, we attempted to uncover the peculiar charm and lessons hidden in these cinematic misadventures and misfortunes. Lastly, we brought recent releases such as Christmas Bloody Christmas, It's A Wonderful Knife, and There's Something in the Barn. WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

The true story behind The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It, is that in February 1981, a young man by the name of Arne Cheyenne Johnson was arrested in Connecticut and charged with murder. Under ordinary circumstances, such a crime would have been given brief mention in the local press, and the matter would've quickly faded from public view. What the press did not know at the time, because the essential facts were still cloaked in secrecy, was that the murder represented the culmination of a horrendous religious case that had begun fully eight months before, in the town of Brookfield, Connecticut, our topic for this episode: The Possession of David Glatzel.

Mike, El Kabong, and Dick White Tip return with Part II of our Snuff Film series, and while the subject matter for this one is tame by our standards, we ourselves get a little carried away talking about snuff in more mainstream films such as 8MM, Vacancy, Running Scared, Scream 4, and the Sinister films, along with the lesser known entries Mute Witness, Thesis, and The Brave. Sal gets a lesson in PC terminology and gives us a lesson in nasty pornography. Other topics and side tangents include scum-bucket Jerry Lewis, plastic surgery disasters, seedy motels and Bigfoot!

We're starting an extensive series on Snuff Films and on this episode we're starting at the very beginning, with Thomas Edison's exploitation films of executions and bloodsports! We also get into Charles Manson and the Family's influence on introducing the term “snuff films” into the lexicon as we know it today, as well as their influence on exploitation cinema through films like Snuff (1975) and Last House on Dead End Street (1979). Mondo documentaries and rumored footage of celebrity deaths is discussed, as well as Peeping Tom (1960) and voyeurism in cinema. We cover Faces of Death and touch on films such as Cannibal Holocaust, 8MM and the Guinea Pig Franchise. Emanuelle in America grosses Sal out, as it rightfully should. To close out this week we bring up Effects (1979) and George C. Scott in Hardcore (1979). Throughout the week we also give some recommendations on films to check out over the next week.
