For our second episode in the "Corman Graduates: Jack Hill" series, we talk with director, writer and cinematography, Elle Schneider (THE FOOD THAT BUILT AMERICA, PLEDGE NIGHT: AN INTERVIEW WITH ROGER CORMAN, BLISS BLUE, THAT GUY DICK MILLER), about Jack Hill's MONDO KEYHOLE and PIT STOP. In addition to being friends with Dick Miller and interviewing Jack Hill and Roger Corman on multiple occasions, she is a huge fan of PIT STOP. She brings an technical perspective on both of the films that you won't find anywhere else. First, we talk about MONDO KEYHOLE. We discuss the history and legal challenges with making "Nudie Cuties" and "Roughies" films during the 1960s and how that impacted the distribution of MONDO KEYHOLE. We talk about how Jack Hill got involved with movie, the unique approach he took to casting and filming the movie and the fact that it had to play in adult theaters upon it's initial release. Next, we dive into fan favorite, PIT STOP - one of Jack Hill's most impressive films. We talk about the struggle the movie faced trying to get an audience in an era when black and white films were going out of vogue in the drive-in circuit. We share mutual appreciation for Sid Haig's emotional performance - one that is unique to his filmography. Finally, we discuss the filming approach by cinematographer, Austin McKinney and the unfortunate rift with Jack Hill. We even talk a tiny bit about Sorceress. Elle shares stories about Roger Corman including his ambitions to be a studio director and the decision to step away to start New World Pictures. We also spend a little time talking about serial killers, the fallout between Jack Hill and Austin McKinney, and movies with the best scenes featuring Dune Buggies. Why Dune Buggies? Because Dune Buggies are awesome. We want to generously thank Elle for being on the podcast and sharing her perspectives on these films. You can check out her website at http://elleschneider.com and look for her next documentary about educational films. Maybe she'll cover For Safety's Sake: In the Neighborhood? Probably not.

While The Cinemania Society begins its campaign of strongly-worded missives directed at their doppelgängers, it also continues its scrutiny of the 1990 film "Frankenstein Unbound," Roger Corman's final directorial oeuvre starring John Hurt, Raul Julia, and Bridget Fonda.

Roger Corman (April 5, 1926 -May 9, 2024)—an iconic figure whose influence on Hollywood is nothing short of legendary—traversed the cinematic landscape from the late 1950's to the 1990's. Celebrated as the "Pope of Pop Cinema," the "Spiritual Godfather of the New Hollywood," and the "King of Cult," Corman was a pioneering force in independent filmmaking, forever reshaping the industry with his innovative spirit. Throughout his illustrious career, Corman collaborated with an impressive roster of emerging filmmakers, many of whom would go on to dominate the industry. Names such as Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Ron Howard, James Cameron, and Jonathan Demme began their journeys under his mentorship. It has often been remarked that Corman's guidance served as a vital training ground—what James Cameron famously referred to as the "Roger Corman Film School." His influence extended beyond mentorship; he was a catalyst for creativity and innovation. Nicolas Roeg served as the cinematographer for The Masque of the Red Death, while many of his protégés achieved Oscar success. Corman's reputation for fostering talent with a blend of encouragement and challenge left an indelible mark on cinema. As he famously advised, “If you do a good job on this film, you'll never have to work for me again,” exemplifying his role as both mentor and pioneer in the cinematic world. Join Azed and Tom as they explore the life and work of Roger Corman, a true maverick and inspiration for all aspiring filmmakers.
This week on the Jibber Jabber Podcast, Kev and Jay Mack sit down with writer/director J. Horton to dive into the blood-splattered, bullet-ridden world of his newest genre-bending film, A Hard Place — available on VOD May 27, 2025! From a gritty crime thriller to a full-blown apocalyptic creature feature, A Hard Place is not your average indie flick. We'll talk about the film's wild roadshow journey across America's theaters and drive-ins, its grindhouse spirit, and what it took to bring a monster movie like this to life on a true independent scale. J. Horton opens up about working with a powerhouse cast of cult horror legends including Felissa Rose, Lynn Lowry, Sadie Katz, and Bai Ling, and what it means to create a modern-day Roger Corman-style touring experience for fans. Plus: our spoiler-free review, behind-the-scenes stories, and why this monster mash of crime, chaos, and carnage is one to watch. Don't miss this blood-and-guts deep dive into a film that's redefining indie horror hustle. #Movie #Review #AHardPlace
Welcome to another Cinema Sounds & Secrets Tribute episode! This week Janet, John, (and Pen) discuss the life and career of an incredible American film director, producer, and actor. Once called “The Pope of Pop Cinema” and “The King of Cult” this massive talent also assisted in jumpstarting many careers of the actors and directors we know and love… It's Roger Corman! While he was an innovator and pioneer in the world of independent film, Corman actually studied engineering at Stanford before discovering his passion for movies. Many of his films would go on to achieve cult following status including A Bucket of Blood (1959), The Little Shop of Horrors (1960), The Intruder (1962), X: The Man with the X-ray Eyes (1963), The Wild Angels (1966), and The Trip (1967).

Uspešen poslovnež in ekscentrični tehnološki izumitelj srednjih let Karsh Relikh po smrti svoje lepe žene Becce, ki je umrla zaradi raka, česar Karsh ne more preboleti, razvije revolucionarno tehnologijo. Mrtvaški prt, nekakšen 3D digitalni skener, svojcem omogoča spremljanje razgradnje človeškega telesa po pokopu. Za ta posebna pokopališča se začne zanimati več mest in investitorjev po svetu, vendar pa neko noč neznanci oskrunijo več grobov, tudi tistega, v katerem je pokopana Becca. Karsh se odloči priti zadevi do dna, a na tej poti vedno bolj drsi v vrtinec preganjavice. 81-letni David Cronenberg pravi, da je celovečerec Mrtvaški prt, premierno predstavljen lani v Cannesu, njegov najbolj oseben in intimen doslej. V filmu je, kot v večini njegovih del, nekaj hipnotičnega, gleda se ga s cmokom v grlu in nejevero, kot mešanico morbidnosti in romantike. Kot futuristično reinterpretacijo Edgarja Allana Poeja ali Frankensteina Mary Shelley, ki bi ga brali od konca proti začetku. Mrtvaški prt je Cronenbergova meditacija o smrti in telesnosti, o bližini in obsedenosti, o voajerizmu in mislih, ki jih običajno odrivamo stran. Za Cronenberga je bila umetnost vedno tudi poligon za preizkušanje meja – tudi meja biologije, družbe in vsega, čemur pravimo »človeško«. Film se skuša odzivati na naš čas s svojo digitalno paranojo, mrežnimi povezavami, v katere bi lahko bila združena ta pokopališča, mednarodnim vohunjenjem, Rusi in Kitajci, biomedicinsko manipulacijo in globalnim nadzorom. Mimogrede, večina vrhunske tehnologije, ki jo uporabljamo v vsakdanjem življenju, je bila razvita v vojaške namene, vključno s svetovnim spletom. Vse to brbota nekje v ozadju Karsheve zasebne zgodbe. Ja, Mrtvaškemu prtu lahko očitamo, da je ob vsej svoji drznosti tudi nekakšen Cronenbergov »the best of«. Zdi se, da je iz vsakega svojega dela pobral po nekaj idej. Res veliko je dialogov in ne najboljše igre; kljub temu, da v osrednjih vlogah nastopajo Vincent Cassel, Diane Kruger in Guy Pearce, so vsi malce leseni, karikirani. Rigor mortis kot koncept? Če smo že omenili Poeja, mi pride ob tem pristopu na misel še B-filmski kralj Roger Corman ... Kakorkoli, celovečercev, ki bi idejno dražili gledalce, je danes bolj malo; Mrtvaški prt je tako antipod oskarjevske slavljenke Anore. Gre tudi za metafilm o sobivanju živih in mrtvih ter sobivanju notranjega in zunanjega sveta, kar je ena od rdečih niti Cronenbergovega opusa. Ta razume film tudi kot stroj za oživljanje duhov, in dejansko je v Mrtvaškem prtu nekaj elegičnega. Zdi se, kot da bi zadnji kader leta med oblake naznanil tudi avtorjevo dokončno slovo od filmskega ustvarjanja. Recenzijo je pripravil Gorazd Trušnovec, bere Igor Velše.
Thomas Sena & Deremy Dove (Pop Culture Five) dive back in for yet another Martin Scorsese themed filmmaker's corner sit-down. The 3 period drama related films in this pack are: BOXCAR BERTHA, RAGING BULL & THE AGE OF INNOCENCE. Topics of the Episode Include: *Sports movies overview and how period dramas have evolved in terms of how they're crafted *Why is Boxcar Bertha more of a Roger Corman movie than an ACTUAL Scorsese inspired vision? *Why Raging Bull is Scorsese's Schindler's List where it's excellent but not a film you want to rewatch non-stop due to how depressing it is *And a hysterical 1996 interview with Scorsese on Conan O'Brien's talkshow!

1975's Roger Corman produced classic Death Race 2000 is at the plate! For Eric's Pick we dive into this 70s, dystopian romp breaking down the film and going off into several avenues as we always do!
The first in the series of director Roger Corman's Edgar Allen Poe films sets a high bar for gothic horror adaptations. It stars the legendary Vincent Price as Roderick Usher, with a screenplay penned by Richard Matheson. The story is more faithful to the source material than Mike Flanagan's version, but there are still some significant changes. It's time for a classic in this former Patreon-exclusive!

The next sequel we will discuss is "Nutty Professor II: The Klumps. For it, I chatted with the Actress Enya Flack.

We continue through Chris's second hand DVD collection with another film that, unbelievably, also has no direct involvement with Roger Corman. It's 1999's The Prince and the Surfer, which barely involves any surfing at all. Cash Canty (Sean Kellman) is a, and I cannot stress this enough, SKATEBOARD (not surfer) kid who spends his days as Southern California teenagers in films like this typically do: hanging out by the half pipe, saying "whatever" to his friends, not going to school. But after breaking into a swanky hotel, he finds a young prince of the made up country of Gelfland is his exact double! To adhere to the Twain plot, they switch places and then do... stuff. Prince Edward (also Kellman) hangs out with Cash's friends, including the pigtailed Mel (Linda Cardellini). Meanwhile Cash goes about seducing Edward's betrothed Galina (Katie Johnson). But the queen's evil vizier Kratski (Robert Englund) has ulterior motives for the visit to the United States. He wants to sell Gelfland to a mini-golf empire and turn it into Golfland. Also, Cash's dad Johnny (Timothy Bottoms, who is uncredited because they forgot to credit him) falls in love with Queen Albertina (Jennifer O'Neill). It's all very Shakespearean, except nothing really happens at the end and instead of a mass wedding we get a rushed epilogue read by some surfer dude to try to convince us this movie had anything to do with surfing. And for whatever reason, in the Tubi version Jon Voight appears in a poorly mic'd intro where he says he wants to see more modern Mark Train adaptations because he is a "concerned father." Lol.
O pós apocalíptico filipino, com miúdas jeitosas, carros modificados e tribos neo-punk. Acção, violência sob a influência omnipresente de Roger Corman.
GGACP celebrates the birthday of Emmy-winning director and producer Allan Arkush by revisiting this in-depth interview from 2018.

Finally, the wait is over -- NEW EPISODE AHOY! Season 3 kicks off when The Cinemania Society returns to find that that the only constant in the universe is indeed change and in their attempt to return home, they learn that one can never go home again. Their reaction is, predictably, to hold a Conclave to get a handle on it. Verifier Andy chooses to scrutinize the 1990 film "Frankenstein Unbound," Roger Corman's final directorial oeuvre starring John Hurt, Raul Julia, and Bridget Fonda.

This week we are discussing "Speed 2: Cruise Control", which is on the Mount Rushmore of bad sequels. This one had us discussing the terrible shoe-horned plot, not knowing anything about each other after 7 months, Geiger being a lame bad guy, golf clubs being the corny decoy, having a random character from 1 in part 2, and a ton more. The fact that the end sequence cost almost as much as the budget of the original is crazy. So much screaming and nonsense in this one, but a blast to discuss. Watch the unedited video review at sequelsonly.com/speed2The next sequel up is "Nutty Professor II" and for it, I chatted with actress Enya Flack, who had guest spots on some of my favorite shows growing up like Fresh Prince, Wayans Brothers, and more plus she had some great stories from her non-acting work on projects. Enya was a blast in a Roger Corman show called "Black Scorpion", which you must watch.

We're unveiling a new series on the podcast: Corman Graduates, where we chronologically discuss the filmography of a director who went through "the Roger Corman school of filmmaking" and we're starting with Jack Hill, director of films like TEH BIG DOLL HOUSE and COFFY. Joining us for this first episode is writer, film historian, and filmmaker Calum Waddell, who literally wrote the book on Jack Hill with 2009's Jack Hill: The Exploitation and Blaxploitation Master, Film By Film. We start at the very beginning of Hill's career with "The Host," his student film at UCLA, and his entry into the world of Roger Corman with his work on 1962's THE WASP WOMAN and 1963's THE TERROR before getting his first feature-length assignment, 1966's BLOOD BATH aka TRACK OF THE VAMPIRE, which saw Hill try to create a film around footage from a film shot in Yugoslavia that Corman had invested in. Corman eventually hands it to Stephanie Rothman, another Corman graduate, who took Hill's film about an obsessed artist who murders his models into a vampire film (at Corman's request, of course). Did we like the film? We discuss! We then talk about what Jack Hill felt was his true directorial debut, 1967's SPIDER BABY, which Hill did away from Corman and took some time before it reached theaters and then was mostly forgotten until Quentin Tarantino stepped in the 1990s when he re-released Hill's 1975 film SWITCHBLADE SISTERS on his now-defunct Rolling Thunder Pictures label. We'll discuss the incredible performances - including Sid Haig and Lon Chaney Jr. - and why the film was so prophetic to the horror films that followed it. Don't miss this look into the beginnings of Jack Hill's career with the keen insight and first-hand knowledge of another exploitation expert, Calum Waddell.

Cʹest un film avec des plantes, des morts, des œillets, une boutique de fleuriste et Audrey II, ou Audrey Junior, une plante carnivore particulièrement retorse et vorace. Cʹest La Petite Boutique des horreurs (The Little Shop of Horrors), une comédie horrifique et satirique écrite, produite et réalisée par Roger Corman sortie en 1960. Lʹhistoire de Seymour, jeune homme effacé, amoureux dʹAudrey sa collègue de travail, qui bosse dans la boutique dʹun minable fleuriste Gravis Mushnik. Seymour, par greffons, et peut-être par la magie des pouces verts, parvient à bouturer une plante extraordinaire qui devient vite lʹattraction de la boutique. Le problème cʹest quʹAudrey II est une plante carnivore qui a besoin, non pas dʹair pur et dʹeau fraiche, mais de sang et de chair humaine pour survivre. A Seymour de lui fournir sa pitance avec toutes les conséquences désastreuses que lʹon peut imaginer. Roger Corman, pape des films de série B, réalisateur prolifique de 54 films en tous genres confondus et producteur américain encore plus prolifique avec 400 films, signe ce bijou dʹhumour noir en seulement deux jours et une nuit. La petite boutique des horreurs devient ensuite une comédie musicale off-Broadway en 1982, puis un autre film est adapté de la comédie musicale par Frank Oz en 1986 avec Rick Moranis dans le rôle-titre. Cʹest cette version qui est présent la plus connue. Raison de plus pour revenir aux basiques et entrer ensemble dans La Petite Boutique des horreurs avec son créateur, Roger Corman et toute son équipe.

In this chapter we learn how Roger Corman made the very first movie adaptation of a HP Lovecraft story - The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, starring Vincent Price and Lon Chaney Jnr. - but when it hit cinemas, it had become Edgar Allen Poe's The Haunted Palace! (And yes, they even spelled Poe's middle name wrong!)

For the fifth year in a row, the New World Pictures Podcast celebrates the work of director/producer Roger Corman by watching his past work and sharing what we loved and what we hated. As you might recall from our first Roger Corman Birthday Celebration, we all planned to watch the same movie but one of us (Marc) didn't read the email and watched an entirely different movie. This year, we decided to try something different. Ryan, Erica and Marc each watched a movie directed by Roger Corman in secrecy. Would each of us watch the same movie or would we each go in different directions? We won't spoil the fun. What we will tell you is this special episode involves a New World Pictures Podcast first. You have to listen to find out. As always, we talk about the history of Roger's pre-New World Pictures Podcast catalog and the unique circumstances that surrounded the production of each film. We also talk about Marc's exhausting podcast schedule including "The Semanticast" and "Geocast". We also talk about the events that led up to Roger starting New World Pictures. Happy Birthday, Roger! Thank you for you do and all you have done! We wouldn't have a podcast without you.

Welcome to The Following Films Podcast, where we dive deep into the world of cinema with the filmmakers, artists, and storytellers who bring movie magic to life.On today's episode, I'm joined by legendary VFX artist Alec Gillis to talk about his involvement with Shout! TV's Double Take series, where celebrity guests curate and host themed double features. On April 5, Alec is hosting a special marathon in celebration of Roger Corman's birthday—a fitting tribute, considering his early work on Battle Beyond the Stars under the legendary producer.But that's just the beginning. Alec's career has spanned some of the most iconic sci-fi and horror films of all time, working alongside visionaries like James Cameron and Stan Winston on Aliens, The Abyss, and Terminator 2. He's also brought creatures to life in fan favorites like Tremors, Monster Squad, and Starship Troopers.Today, we'll discuss his journey in the industry, his passion for practical effects, and what fans can expect from this upcoming Double Take event.So, sit back and enjoy my conversation with Alec Gillis.
Bruce and James look back at the pure insanity of the soggy raunchy gore cult classic from the great Roger Corman starring the bloke from all those family fantasy movies in the 70s and the other poor geezer who died making Twilight Zone The Movie
Audrey II was more than just a mean green mother from outer space. Back in 1984, and voiced by Levi Stubbs, he was the main attraction of the movie musical, Little Shop of Horrors. Based on an off-Broadway show, which itself was based on a 1960 horror comedy of the same name, the Frank Oz directed flick achieved cult classic status on VHS and Beta. But now, decades later, are we still singing its praises? Are abusive boyfriends, exploitive bosses, and blood-thirsty plants the stuff of sing-a-longs? Or is this Rick Moranis' finest hour? The Old Roommates head down Skid Row and give it all a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.Old Roommates can be reached via email at oldroommatespod@gmail.com.

We close out #PrisonMarch 2: Second Offense with an interview with someone who there at New World from the very beginning: editor Barbara Pokras! After graduating from USC (where she went to school with Dan O'Bannon with whom she would work on RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD), Barbara found her way to Roger Corman's newly-formed New World Pictures, where she went to work dubbing voices and assisting director Stephanie Rothman on New World's first ever movie, THE STUDENT NURSES. From there, Barbara worked on a variety of movies Roger shot in the Phillipines, like NIGHT OF THE COBRA WOMAN, THE HOT BOX, and THE BIG BUST-OUT! We discuss what it was like to work on those movies, how Barbara worked her way up to joining the Editor's Union and landing a job at Cop Rock, the short-lived police procedural musical, and why it was her favorite job. We also discuss I ESCAPED FROM DEVIL'S ISLAND, TOO HOT TO HANDLE, and why Wonder Woman was not her favorite project to work on. We could not have been more thrilled to talk with Barbara Pokras, one of Corman's original film school graduates, and we know you'll love our discussion as much as we did! And when you're done, don't forget to pick up her book, Feeding Mrs. Moskowitz, here.

The story so far: Three friends are trapped in an underground movie rental store managed by a magical anthropomorphic mole man, have adventures, and watch movies to pass the time and figure ways out of predicaments.This week, Greg DMs a quick game of D&D, but everyone is pretty terrible at it. So we decide to watch a movie to get us more into the mindset of adventuring -- 1983's Deathstalker! While discussing this schlocktastic trashterpiece, we delve into dad bods (again), late stage huskyism, hot Jason, cave perverts, and woods kings! We had a great time checking out this weeks movie, recommended to us by one of our Instagram followers! (Hint hint: follow us on Instagram @stabbypod to suggest movies for future episodes!)Leave us a 30 second voicemail and if we like it we'll play it on the show: (949) 4-STABBY (949-478-2229)Next movie announced every Wednesday.

In this chapter we have the next two Poe movies from Roger Corman, which each took a different direction. Tales of Terror (1962) was an anthology film featuring three different Poe stories, plus guest stars Peter Lorre and Basil Rathbone. While The Raven (1963) was a comedy horror tale of feuding sorcerers which saw Vincent Price plotting magical skulduggery with Peter Lorre, Boris Karloff and a young Jack Nicholson!
Please turn off your cellphones and journey with us to Mars or some shit, maybe, look, we can't hear half of what they said in this unfantastic continuation of THE GREATEST EVENT IN PODCASTING HISTORY, B-MOVIE MARCH!!! For our 80th commentary, we pool noodle stretch all the way back to 1993/1994 for this ill fated flick starring Alex Hyde-White, Rebecca Staab, Jay Underwood, Michael Bailey Smith, and Joseph Culp. Listen with us as out of nowhere somebody says "I love you", we find out that everybody is the hero of this flick, wonder just what the fuck, and try our best to take in all this flick has to offer, because it was never released, but it certainly escaped!
The one and only Edwin Cesar Gomez of @physicalmediasociety returns to the Secret Movie Club podcast fold to discuss American cinema producing legend Roger Corman. When SMC did its first Corman tribute a few months back, Edwin said "Hey! I shoulda been on that pod!" And he was right. Very few folks have seen as many Corman pictures as the ECG. Today, Edwin and SMC founder.programmer Craig Hammill, discuss three more movies that give a fuller picture of how influential Corman was to late 20th century cinema: the 1967 Roger Corman directed LSD movie THE TRIP, the 1976 Roger Corman New World Pictures released HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD, and the 1979 Roger Corman produced SAINT JACK.
Peter Sobczynski joins Erik Childress again to get you caught up on a couple weeks of new physical media. They include drama from Charlie Chaplin and Michael Mann's feature debut. Godzilla returns as does the creepy Roger Corman sci-fi of the early ‘80s. Renny Harlin brings the sharks, Skippy from Family Ties battles a heavy metal killer and Peter reminds us of another piece of ‘80s horror that some parents would like to forget. There is also more weirdness including Steve Allen studying sex, John Travolta investigating sex and Eddie Murphy brought in to save a comedy. All that might be nothing compared to the visualization of The Who's rock opera brought to life by Ken Russell. 0:00 - Intro 2:11 - Criterion (A Woman of Paris, Thief 4K, Godzilla vs Biollante 4K) 18:53 - Arrow (Deep Blue Sea 4K) 27:08 - Kino (College Confidential, The Godsend, Best Defense, The General's Daughter 4K, The Black Tulip, Half a Chance) 58:46 - Sony (Bon Voyage) 1:03:57 - Synapse (Trick or Treat 4K) 1:13:01 - Shout (Forbidden World 4K, Tommy 4K) 1:40:27 – New TV on Blu-ray (The Penguin 4K, The Last of Us 4K, Tulsa King Season 2) 1:45:38 – New Theatrical Titles on Blu-ray (Wildcat, Moana 2 4K, Wolf Man 4K) 1:48:00 – New Blu-ray Announcements
That's right, #PrisonMarch is back for Prison Marc H 2: Second Offense! Once more, we plumb the depths of the women-in-prison movies released by New World Pictures, this time with an Italian knock-off created after New World's THE BIG DOLL HOUSE became a huge success! Yes, plenty of studios were making knock-offs by 1973, but only Roger Corman would popularize a subgenre and then also release a knock-off of the very thing he popularized! Returning to discuss this Italian version of a Corman movie with us is Chris Iannacone from the Get Me Another podcast, who previously joined us for the Italian-produced LADY FRANKENSTEIN. Lucky for us, Chris has been preparing for this episode FOR YEARS! We will discuss this wild tale in our usual NWPP manner: by piecing together the story from the reassembled footage Roger had put together for its American release. Did Sister Maria do a good job rehabilitating the girls? How important is it to know someone with a circular indoor pool? How cool is Jeff? And what's the biggest thing you've ever slept through? We dive into it ALL! Join us and become one our NWPPVIPs, the only listeners we will bury.

In the twenty-first episode of Season 11: The Son of Cult Flicks, Kyle is joined by stunt actor Danny Hernandez and filmmaker Daniel Lopez to discuss the prescient dissection of media violence, personality politicians, and the co-mingling of religion and corporation that makes up the Roger Corman produced and Paul Bartel directed exploitation satire Death Race 2000 (1975).
This week we're joined by our friends Johnny Cann and Tyler Hyde from That's Spooky as we celebrate women's history and women in horror with a look at the last movie you'd think would be appropriate for such an occasion. Slumber Party Massacre, from 1982, is a sleazy, lurid spectacle with an unexpected background. Written in 1978 as a spoof of slasher movies by radical feminist icon, Rita Mae Brown, it ended up in the hands, of all people, of Roger Corman, who turned it over to his editor, Amy Holden Jones as she set her sights on directing for the first.Full of gratuitous nudity, gore, and people making a lot of bad decisions it's a remarkably entertaining piece of slasher horror with a wild production history that ultimately caused the second wave of feminism to turn on Rita Brown in a really unfortunate way.

It was never officially released, but the 1994 Roger Corman-produced Fantastic Four movie has been widely available for a long time. We finally watched it to see if it's anywhere near as bad as its reputation.We make our show on Zencastr, and you can too! Follow this link to sign up now!
