This week, the party finds themselves still knee-deep in guards as the bakery-not-bakery continues to reveal its secrets. As if armed guards weren't enough, this latest fight comes with a Dig-Widget joining the fray. And just when things seem under control... what in the Nine Hells are those jinkins doing crawling out from behind the shelves? Every room in this place somehow manages to be worse than the last.

Horror history gets weird, reflective, and dangerously snackable this week as This Week in Horror History travels through June 8–14 with mischievous monsters, haunted hotels, supernatural comedy, demonic hauntings, creepy mirrors, and one killer dessert that may be eating America alive.This episode digs into a packed week of classic horror movies, cult horror sequels, supernatural blockbusters, 1980s horror, haunted-house horror, and strange consumer-satire body horror, including the release of Gremlins, the same-day arrival of Ghostbusters, the wider theatrical expansion of The Shining, the hit sequel The Conjuring 2, and the mirror-filled nightmare of Poltergeist III.Inside this episode:• Gremlins turns one cute little mogwai into small-town monster chaos and helps push Hollywood toward the PG-13 rating.• Ghostbusters brings haunted libraries, demonic possession, rooftop apocalypse, and paranormal exterminators into one of the biggest supernatural comedy franchises ever.• The Shining expands wider in U.S. theaters, pulling more audiences into Stanley Kubrick's cold, hypnotic nightmare inside the Overlook Hotel.• The Conjuring 2 sends Ed and Lorraine Warren to the Enfield haunting and introduces one of modern horror's most memorable demonic figures.• The Deep-Cut Spotlight goes to Poltergeist III, the strange 1988 sequel that traps Carol Anne inside a haunted Chicago high-rise full of mirrors, elevators, cold hallways, and unfinished supernatural business.Plus: a horror birthday roll featuring Johnny Depp, Natalie Portman, Jurgen Prochnow, and Adrienne Barbeau, a creepy look at how horror sneaks into family homes, hotels, corporate towers, grocery aisles, and blockbuster comedy, and a weekly recommendation for Larry Cohen's weird, gross, and sharply satirical cult classic The Stuff.From mogwai mayhem and ghost exterminators to haunted reflections, demonic forces, the Overlook Hotel, and a mysterious dessert that might be consuming its customers from the inside out, this week proves horror can invade almost anything: your home, your hotel room, your movie theater, your refrigerator, and your appetite.

This week, three horror nerds gather to discuss Obsession (2025) and Milk & Serial (2024), both directed by Curry Barker, and within approximately six minutes completely abandon reality.What begins as a normal conversation about two incredible indie horror films quickly devolves into a full-scale investigation into whether Curry Barker is secretly a sleep paralysis demon with a camera budget.We kick things off with Milk & Serial, the micro-budget horror phenomenon that proves you don't need millions of dollars when you have anxiety, manipulation, and enough uncomfortable tension to make viewers want to crawl out of their own skin. We discuss: Manipulation Psychological warfareFriendship Why every decision made by these characters feels like watching someone juggle chainsaws over a wood chipperThe growing realization that Curry Barker might actually feed on audience discomfortThen we dive headfirst into Obsession, a film that starts as an awkward romance and slowly transforms into a nightmare designed by someone who looked at the concept of "red flags" and thought:"What if we made those visible from space?" We break down Bear's increasingly terrible decisions, Nikki's nightmare-fuel performance, the infamous "You were supposed to kiss me" jump scare, hidden clues scattered throughout the film, and the realization that every time you rewatch Obsession you discover another detail that makes you mutter, "Oh no... that's somehow worse."Along the way, we spiral into: Whether Nikki is secretly possessed by a dead cat (the internet has theories)Why horror fans immediately become conspiracy theorists after one viewing The ethics of magical wish-graning customer service How a movie can make you simultaneously laugh, cringe, panic, and need therapy The possibility that Curry Barker is simply three filmmakers stacked on top of each other in a trench coat We also celebrate Barker's incredible practical effects work, his ability to make audiences laugh and panic simultaneously, and the fact that he somehow keeps producing horror films that feel deeply personal, wildly ambitious, and completely capable of ruining your evening. Giving this man access to Leatherface feels less like a movie announcement and more like accidently handing a flamethrower to someone who just figured out how gasoline works. And we can't wait.

Description Grab your flashlight and avoid the basement stairs because this week on Enjoy Stuff, Jay and Shua celebrate the glorious age of creature features! From giant worms and killer spiders to mischievous Gremlins and underground mutants, they revisit the movies that terrified and delighted an entire generation. Creature features, killer critters, giant worms, Gremlins, and underground monsters.  This week Jay and Shua celebrate the gloriously weird movies that made Saturday afternoons unforgettable! Plus, Jay says goodbye to Sci-Fi Saturdays, and much more on a brand new episode of Enjoy Stuff!   News "Dare to Be Stupid," a new Broadway musical inspired by Weird Al Yankovic, is officially in development with writers from Beetlejuice and Gutenberg! The Musical!   The Transformers: The Movie returns to theaters in restored 4K beginning September 17, 2026 for a special limited theatrical engagement.   Behind the Attraction Season 3 is on the way and will spotlight the history and creation of Disney Cruise Line.   Voice acting legend Tom Kane passed away at age 64 following complications from a stroke suffered in 2020. Jay shares a funny personal story and the guys reflect on Kane's incredible career. Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Shua has been watching The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, the new comedy starring Tracy Morgan and Daniel Radcliffe. The mockumentary-style series follows a disgraced former football star trying to rebuild his life while an overly enthusiastic filmmaker documents every ridiculous moment. Shua loved the absurd humor, awkward situations, and strong chemistry between the leads. Jay revisited The Birds and was reminded why it remains one of the greatest suspense films ever made. Beyond the iconic bird attacks, Jay discusses Hitchcock's masterful tension-building, unsettling atmosphere, and why the movie still feels effective decades later. After their Hitchcock episode a few weeks ago, it felt like the perfect time for a rewatch.     Sci-Fi Saturdays -  This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay spotlights his final Sci-Fi Saturdays column covering Tenet by Christopher Nolan. In the article, Jay explores how Nolan uses time inversion, reverse motion, and innovative editing techniques to create an entirely new cinematic language that challenges audiences while still delivering blockbuster spectacle.   Jay also reflects on the incredible run of Sci-Fi Saturdays itself: seven and a half years, 330 articles, and films spanning from 1950 through 2020. Beginning with Rocketship X-M and ending with Tenet, the series celebrated over seven decades of science fiction cinema while examining how the genre reflects humanity, technology, and society.    Jay also highlights his latest MCU Location Scout featuring Daredevil: Born Again and Punisher: One Last Kill.

From alien furballs and killer fish to giant worms and demonic little creatures, Jay and Shua revisit the films that introduced many young viewers to horror without completely traumatizing them…well, mostly.   Along the way they discuss why the 1980s and early 1990s became the golden age for lighter horror movies, the importance of practical creature effects, and why these films still remain endlessly rewatchable today. Whether it's giant spiders, Gremlins causing chaos, or mysterious monsters lurking underground, the episode celebrates the fun side of fear and the unforgettable creature classics that still make audiences smile, scream, and laugh all at once.   Which creature are you afraid of?

Physical media fans from the 1980s will have a lot to rejoice upon this week (if you still carry a fondness for certain films of your youth) but Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski have plenty from various decades to add to your library this week. They include Bob Fosse's take on a free speech icon and the recent Academy Award winner for Best International Feature. Robert Wise's legendary haunted house film and a collection of classic cartoons. There is early work from Brian DePalma plus Art Carney as a private eye and Tony Randall in six roles. Plus, Peter finally caught up with Harry Hole. But for the nostalgia fans there is also the complete set of Sylvester Stallone's troubled war hero and Kevin Costner as the famed robber of the rich. John Lithgow adopts Bigfoot, Dan Aykroyd invades John Candy's vacation and Ron Howard delivers one of the quintessential comedies about family and parenting. Horror fans can take another New Years train ride with Jamie Lee Curtis or finally watch the “real” scenes of death your parents or video store may not have let you or lent you. Finally, a look at Joe Dante's Gremlins follow-up that 40+ years later still delights and still seeks a bigger audience.1:10 - Criterion (Lenny (4K), Sentimental Value (4K))13:19 - ClassicFlix (Fleischer Cartoons: Greatest Hits, Volume 1)15:20 - Shout Factory (The Haunting (1963) (4K))23:07 - Warner Archive (The 7 Faces of Dr. Lao, The Late Show)38:39 - Radiance (Hi, Mom!

Kicking things off with quite a few MOTU Toy Headlines; branching all sub-categories of the brand - including a Playset!

As well as a potential Lawsuit to protect their work....? McFarlane continue to produce Batman products & Transformers Missing Link announce a unique offering in the form of G1 Ironhide & Ratchet. Trent gets super nostalgic over Goof-Troop; plus we have more Fighters announced from Jada & McFarlane too. Rounding out the News is a beautiful nod to the influential man that was Jack Kirby; in the form of a street named after him! Then we have a very close in-hand review of the amazingly intricate HeatBoys TMNT Figures. These Figures are absolutely extraordinary; with their Die-Cast designed Mech-Suits. They are honestly like nothing we have seen in the TMNT franchise before!! All this & more! Enjoy!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this week's Amigos, we suffer through Dangerous Streets on the Amiga, Gremlin's infamously broken fighting game that somehow became the pack-in face of the CD32 console launch.

This week on The Rotten Horror Picture Show Podcast, Clay and Amanda are giving listeners a special sample of their Patreon sequel coverage with a deep dive into the gloriously chaotic Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Directed by Joe Dante, this sequel takes everything from the original Gremlins and cranks it to absolute cartoon insanity—mutant gremlins, fourth-wall breaks, satire of corporate America, and enough anarchic energy to short-circuit an entire skyscraper. Clay and Amanda unpack why Gremlins 2 has gone from misunderstood oddity to beloved cult comedy, and how Dante basically used a studio sequel to make fun of studio sequels.Now, personally? I've always felt the Gremlins films could stand to be a little more topical. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a tiny green monster hijacking a cable access show as much as the next person, but where are the gremlins discussing modern infrastructure concerns? Where's the scene where a gremlin spreads misinformation online? Why hasn't there been a thoughtful subplot about housing costs? You're telling me these creatures can genetically splice themselves into bat-gremlins and electricity-gremlins, but none of them has started an inflammatory podcast?Honestly, the closest Gremlins 2 gets is making fun of media saturation and corporate culture, which, credit where it's due, was pretty ahead of its time. But I'm just saying: if you're gonna unleash chaos monsters onto society, maybe let them tackle gig economy burnout or algorithm-driven outrage while they're at it. Imagine a gremlin testifying before Congress. That's cinema.Still, Clay and Amanda make a compelling case that Gremlins 2 works precisely because it's so unhinged. It's satire wrapped in slapstick wrapped in creature effects slime, and somehow it all holds together.So tune in, enjoy the madness, and remember: somewhere out there, there's probably already a cryptocurrency gremlin.And be sure to head over to Patreon.com/thepenskyfile to follow Clay and Amanda as they dive into horror franchise sequels, and don't miss out on the special Patreon-only episode recorded at the Stanley Hotel in June!

Episode DescriptionLive from FanX Salt Lake 2025, this is one of six panels we recorded at the convention — and it might be the most relatable one we've done. If you've ever had a player blow up your carefully crafted plot, chase a side quest for three sessions, or demand a demonic arm mid-campaign, this panel is for you.Justin and Tanner are joined by Ian Hawkes and Cameron Cardoza from Worldsmith for a live audience conversation about one of the most common — and most misunderstood — challenges at the table: the chaos gremlin.What We CoverFraming the ProblemNot all chaos is created equal. We dig into what actually makes someone a "chaos gremlin," why chaos at the table isn't always a problem (and can actually be a gift), and how to tell the difference between harmless unpredictability and genuine disruption. One key question every DM should ask: is this chaos — or is it control? Is it excitement — or is it boredom?Setting Expectations & Knowing Your TableWe talk about the importance of Session Zero, how to have honest conversations with your players about the kind of game everyone wants to play, and how to tell when chaotic behavior crosses the line from organic fun into a respect issue. There's a meaningful difference between occasional disruption and consistent derailing — and one of them needs a real conversation.Managing Chaos in the MomentThis is where it gets practical. What do you actually do when your players go completely off-script? We cover managing your own reaction, using improv skills to embrace the chaos, and how to encourage beautiful storytelling even within unpredictable choices. Sometimes the session that goes sideways becomes the one everyone remembers.Prepping for a Chaotic GroupIf your table is classically chaotic, your prep should reflect that. We discuss how to build flexible, modular sessions — random tables, adaptable NPCs, storylines that can bend without breaking — so that no matter what your players do, you're ready to make it feel intentional.Folding the Chaos Into the StoryOne of the best long-term solutions: make the story big enough that there's no such thing as "off-script." Pull player backstories in. Let their chaotic choices reshape the BBEG. Change your expectations about what the story is supposed to be. The most memorable campaigns are usually the ones that went somewhere no one planned.Featured PanelistsJustin Lewis — Co-host, H2BBDMTanner Weyland — Co-host, H2BBDMIan Hawkes — WorldsmithCameron Cardoza — WorldsmithThanks for listening to today's show.

They also cover the boddy horror of the Brundlefly, the chaotic mayhem of Gremlins, and more.

Doug's 10-year-old daughter Natalie finally sat down to watch The Martian and her reaction was everything. Sweaty palms, emotional investment, and a death grip on dad's hand during the finale. Is she officially a movie person now? We think so. But that's just the beginning. This week Justin and Doug go deep on the art of introducing kids to classic films: what lands, what doesn't, and why a 10-year-old has exactly zero interest in Star Wars, Harry Potter, or Space Jam. From The Martian to Top Gun: Maverick, Alien, Jaws, Indiana Jones, Gremlins, and the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, we rank, debate, and reminisce about the movies that shaped us and wonder which ones are ready for the next generation. Then we play The Verdict: our Letterboxd review guessing game where Doug reads real (and absolutely unhinged) user reviews and Justin tries to guess the star rating and the movie. This round features reviews for Donnie Darko, La La Land, 28 Days Later, Midsommar, Companion, and a "Roses are red, violets are blue" review for 500 Days of Summer that you will not see coming. Plus: gym etiquette crimes, weight droppers, weight hoarders, filming yourself at the gym, and the chaotic state of dumbbell organization at Doug's LA Fitness. This week's recommendations: Justin: Go support your local ballet, orchestra, or performing arts company. You might surprise yourself. Doug: Potion Seller (Grand Rapids, MI). Check out their new single Irish Exit and their upcoming album Buzzard dropping May 15th.

We're having fun with more strange and familiar things this week on the Video Store Podcast, looking at four films that the Duffer Brothers took inspiration from for the second season of Stranger Things. If you missed the first installment of this series, go check out the first part, “Things to Watch After Stranger Things I.”Ghostbusters (1984)We're keeping it light and breezy to start this week's show with Ghostbusters (1984). It's a silly comedy with a healthy dose of spooky fun. Yes, our leading young guys are dressed as Ghostbusters, have their own proton packs, PKE Meters, and ghost traps to bust all the ghosts in the neighborhood. But what makes this an inspiration for Stranger Things season 2 is the haunted feeling our cast has during this season. And of course, Dustin catches a baby demogorgon with his ghost trap. What's not to like about that? Aliens (1986)Next is the sequel to 1979's Alien, Aliens, directed by James Cameron. This sci-fi action horror flick gives Stranger Things season 2 inspiration for its newest form of demogorgon, the demodog, as well as flamethrowers aplenty. Eleven is a mini-Sigourney Weaver in aesthetics and tenacity. And can we really trust Doc Owens if he is played by Paul Reiser, aka Burke from Aliens? Guess you'll just have to watch Aliens and find out. Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)Terminator 2: Judgment Day is the second example of a sequel that sticks the landing in today's show, and truly, that's why Stranger Things season 2 nods to it. As James Cameron sought to honor the original source material and give it a twist with Aliens, he does the same with Terminator 2: Judgment Day. The film turns expectations upside down, and that's exactly what Stranger Things season 2 does! And for that reason, it's worth watching the film to see what jumped to Stranger Things. You'll be back for more!The Exorcist (1973)The final film I've got for you today is often called “The Scariest Movie of All Time,” 1973's The Exorcist. And with good reason! This film's final act inspires the Stranger Things season 2 finale's final act as well. There are also certain parallels that can be drawn between Father Karras' journey and Hopper's journey to be a father. This is a really scary film, and it's not for everyone, but it is a film that's worth watching at least once. Honorable MentionsGo back and listen to Flack talk about Gremlins in his “I'm Dreaming of a Bloody Christmas” episode. I discussed Stand By Me in my “Film Friendships” show, which was visually referenced in the first two seasons of Stranger Things (and it won't be the last time either). Flack talks on the Ozploitation genre in his “Ozploitation Cinema” episode, of which Mad Max is the most famous, which is where Max gets her gamer tag in the Dig Dug game. Finally, I would be beyond remiss if I failed to include the most obvious reference---Eleven, dressed as a ghost, begging to go out for Halloween, just like E. T. did in E. T. the Extra-Terrestrial, which I covered in my first installment of this series. There are loads more I could mention, but I'll spare you that today. Come talk to me after hours if you want the full thesis dissertation. Thanks again for joining us today on the Video Store Podcast.
