This week Sean and Jeff talked about the most evil or ‘devilish' movies in history in honor of I Hate Critics episode 666    Both Sean and Jeff offered their Top 5 Demon/Devil Movies and had Bob been able to join us, we would have stayed on theme with three Top 6 countdowns but it simply didn't make sense without him.    Sean -    Abby (1974)    An archaeologist (William Marshall) tries to rid a minister's (Terry Carter) wife (Carol Speed) of a spewing demon dug up in Nigeria.   The Devil and Father Amorth (2018)    In 1973 he brought us the film classic, The Exorcist. 45 years later, Academy Award-winning director William Friedkin brings us the real thing.   The Last Exorcism 2010    After years of gulling the faithful, cleric Cotton Marcus (Patrick Fabian) feels remorse and decides to expose his chicanery through filming a documentary. With a crew in tow, Marcus arrives at the Louisiana farm of devout Louis Sweetzer, who believes that his daughter, Nell, is possessed. When the usual stunts fail, he realizes that he is face-to-face with real evil and must summon true faith to protect Nell, the others and himself from demonic power.   The Witch (2015)    In 1630 New England, panic and despair envelops a farmer, his wife and their children when youngest son Samuel suddenly vanishes. The family blames Thomasin, the oldest daughter who was watching the boy at the time of his disappearance. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, twin siblings Mercy and Jonas suspect Thomasin of witchcraft, testing the clan's faith, loyalty and love to one another.   Hereditary (Number 1 for both Sean and Jeff)    When the matriarch of the Graham family passes away, her daughter and grandchildren begin to unravel cryptic and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry, trying to outrun the sinister fate they have inherited.   Jeff's Remaining List  Prince of Darkness 1987    Poking around in a church cellar, a priest (Donald Pleasence) finds an otherworldly vial filled with slime. Frightened, he brings his discovery to a circle of top scholars and scientists, who eventually learn that the strange liquid is the essence of Satan. The slime then begins to seep out, turning some of the academics into zombified killers. As the possessed battle the survivors, student Kelly (Susan Blanchard) is infected by a large quantity of the liquid and becomes Satan personified.   House of the Devil (2009)   Desperate to make some money so she can move into a new apartment, college student Samantha Hughes (Jocelin Donahue) takes a mysterious babysitting job. When she arrives at the house, Mr. Ulman (Tom Noonan) mentions a full lunar eclipse and explains there is no child, but that Samantha will be watching his mother instead. After exploring the sinister-seeming house, Samantha soon comes to realize that her employers are hiding a horrifying secret and have plans to use her, dead or alive.   Exorcist 3 (1990)   Police Lt. Kinderman (George C. Scott) notices similarities between his current murder investigation and the methods used by the Gemini killer (Brad Dourif) who was executed 15 years before. He soon discovers a hospitalized mental patient (Jason Miller) claiming to be the dead serial killer, but who looks uncannily like a priest Kinderman knew who died during an exorcism. As more bodies are found, Kinderman looks for connections between the two supposedly dead men.   Devil (2010)    Five strangers' day begins with an elevator ride in a Philadelphia office tower. But, what happens next is anything but ordinary. The elevator gets stuck, and the trapped passengers, who expected to be together just a few minutes, now face the revelation of their secrets and transgressions. Frightening events turn annoyance into terror, as they begin to realize that one of their number is Lucifer himself.

This week's pick is the 1979 martial arts/adventure style movie Jaguar Lives! The Jaguar (champion martial artist Joe Lewis) travels the world constantly trying to stop the bad guys from doing bad things, we think? Maybe there is something happening with opium? We're not entirely sure. Featuring the likes of Sir Christopher Lee, John Huston, Barbara Bach, and a wonderful Donald Pleasence in small roles that make you wonder why they agreed to take part in this movie.

You know that incomprehensibly dry British humor you always hear people talking about? Well, we found some. Join us for a Frankenstein comedy from the 80s that kinda feels like it could be from the 70s. We have Donald Pleasence as a pervy Frankenstein, a feminist racecar driver/political protestor, a bunch of nameless bureaucrats in an incredibly out-of-print movie that is thankfully available on YouTube.

John Carpenter, the master or horror behind such classics as "Halloween" and "The Thing" brings a different take on the possession genre with a little science fiction flair in this lessor known 80s flick, Prince of Darkness. Reuniting with Dr. Loomis himself (Donald Pleasence) and with a surprise appearance by Alice Cooper this cheesy, yet intriguing horror film is quite entertaining. We are joined by special guest G.G. Abrahams of the Ridiculous World of G.G. Abrahams in this latest episode of FYC Film Review.

Halloween season draws to a close with one last pairing of horror films (for now): 1966's Eye of the Devil, starring David Niven, Deborah Kerr, David Hemmings, the beautiful and talented Sharon Tate, and horror icon Donald Pleasence and 1968's Witchfinder General, starring the dashing, debonair, and diabolical Vincent Price! Friend Dan J. joins to discuss both obscure films that deserve more recognition than they get. Happy Halloween!

Send us a textDo you remember Halloween II from 1981? This one was panned for being less scary, more gory, and a ton more blood. We don't see the problem with any of that but people back in 81 did. We don't remember much about this movie, other than it takes place right where the original ended. It also takes place in a hospital and Jamie Lee Curtis got a bigger paycheck and basically laid in a hospital bed the entire film. So join us as we go back to the 80s and preview & review the first sequel to one of the most popular horror movies ever.Do You Remember Liking This Movie?

On this day in 1978, "Halloween", starring Donald Pleasence and Academy Award winner Jamie Lee Curtis in her film debut, made its way into theaters. The film's low budget limited the number of big names that could appear, but it still ended up making $47 million in the United States and an additional $23 million internationally. With the theatrical release totaling around $70 million, this made it one of the most successful independent films of all time.

"He was my patient for fifteen years. He became an obsession with me until I realized that there was nothing within him, neither conscious nor reason that was... even remotely human." We watched "Halloween II" with our friend Gabe Munoz and we'll be right back after we x-ray our entire candy haul. This movie wastes no time and picks up mere moments after Dr. Loomis (a frenzied Donald Pleasence) unloads 6 rounds into Michael Meyers at the end of the 1978 original. With all of our characters either unalived by Michael or under sedation in the emergency room, we get a whole new cast of Haddonfield residents to get picked off by "the shape". Is it to this movies detriment that OG Final Girl Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) is in a hospital bed most of the movie? Maybe. Is her wig an even worse offence? Definitely. Original director John Carpenter may not have returned to helm this one, but he penned the script along with then wife and collaborator Debra Hill so the "bones" of the story and characters are there (spooky pun intended), but can Laurie's minimal screen time and Dr. Loomis frantic delivery save this one? The "Halloween" franchise has had its ups and downs but this kooky entry is a lot of fun and definitely worth the watch.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

Break out of summer with John Carpenter's Escape from New York (1981) and Escape from L.A. (1996)!

In this episode of Overlapping Dialogue, we dive into the overwhelming abyss of past, present, and future techno sci-fi horror with THX 1138 and Possessor. Listen as we assess the ability, or lack thereof, to judge George Lucas's brilliant 1971 debut feature on its own terms and the also weighty pedigree inherent to any discussion of Brandon Cronenberg's 2020 messy assassin thriller.

Josh, Jonny, and special guest Ro from The Scarif Scuttlebutt Podcast (https://www.youtube.com/c/ScarifScuttlebuttPodcast) dive deep into George Lucas's 1971 feature film debut, THX 1138. We talk about the film's themes, its relevance today, and how it laid the groundwork for Lucas's later work, including Star Wars. We discuss: How THX 1138 offers a unique insight into George Lucas's artistic vision and themes that would later be explored in his Star Wars films. How the movie remains relevant today, as it examines the dehumanizing effects of technology and the struggle against oppressive systems. While the CGI additions in the 2004 Director's Cut are controversial, the original film remains a stunning example of low-budget, avant-garde science fiction filmmaking. THX 1138 can be seen as the first part of an informal trilogy, alongside American Graffiti and Star Wars, that explores the idea of leaving a small world to enter a larger one.

In this episode the FM3 headed towards the more populated waters of horror and ended up in the poltergeist pit of Dario Argento's 1985 film “Phenomena” AKA “Creepers”.  To their pleasant surprise there was a monkey acting a fool in this Argento Classic and they aren't talking about Donald Pleasence! This flick is filled with all kinds of wild stuff: insects, motorhead, freaky kids, decapitations, and trippy ass sleep walking dreamscapes - all to confuse and entice Jef, Josh and Brian into enjoying their time with it. Plus it has a monkey in it!!
