Grindbin Podcast - Grindhouse and Exploitation Films

The only superhero movie that Disney doesn't want you to know exists! Woody is a creepy comic book writer who imagines himself as a superhero; or a spy; or both; or neither. Condorman is a movie with almost no redeaming qualities - except for a very drunk Oliver Reed. Watch as the CIA funds a man's midlife crisis with the 1981 US defense budget. 

Bobby and Mike are joined by Eddie the Axe (Bloodybits Podcast) and Matt Anderson to discuss the return of Grindbin All-Star Joseph Merhi (The Sweeper). This over-the-top action classic starring Gary Daniels features more of Merhi's patented stuntman-killing scenes and one of the most convoluted plots we've ever tried to dissect on the show. Clones? Militias? Government experiments? Houseboat Sens...

Bobby, Wick, Chris, and Mike discuss this Sam Elliott, Peter Weller buddy cop film that has everything you could ever want from an 80's action movie. Broadway cops, Rollercoaster fights, and an ending that has to be seen to be believed; Shakedown is the pinnacle of action movies and 80s entertainment. 

Bobby, Terry, and Mike  finally discuss the Patreon poll winner from months ago!  Director Umberto Lenzi (The Tough Ones) decided he had no interest in making a movie and literally left the set within a day, Michael Parks and John Saxon sleepwalk through their parts, and we still can't figure out if the GATORS! guy is real. Nightmare Beach is an enigma from start to finish and is truly a must watc...

Tim, Robby, Mike Ratt, and Mike talk about the ill-fated Monkees movie that drove the final nail in the coffin of their career. Head, written by Jack Nickolson and directed by the man who brought you Easy Rider, is a movie way ahead of its time. A mind-bending film that emulates being on hallucinogens starring America's favorite fake Beatles; featuring an actual murder on screen. This one is a wil...

Bobby, Daniel, Steve, and Mike talk about arguably the best Brian De Palma movie. Phantom of the Paradise is a treat from start to finish. Contracts signed in blood, an actor nearly being killed on set, and Canolis are just not that great of a desert... all this and more! 

Tim, Daniel, Vaughn, and Mike get ready for pledge night during the big April Fools party at Slasher University. Shelved for over two years and only making $900 on it's initial release, Killer Party is a great hidden gem of the mid-80's slasher films. 

It's the 300th episode of the Grindbin!!! Mann, Bobby, Tim, and Mike discuss a movie that proves time might, in fact, be a flat circle. Up Your Alley really is Grindbin the movie. A plethora of Grindbin all-stars, bad Italian accents, and the most amazing cameo of all time.

Next week brings Grindbin episode 300!!! This week, we take a look back at Bobby's first appearance on the show. 

What if they made a musical loosely based on a very famous Beatles album that stared The Bee Gees, Peter Frampton, Donald Pleasence, and George Burns? Well... they did and NOBODY remembers it for a reason. The boys break down one of the worst movies ever made.

Every so often a movie comes around and is an instant classic... this is one of those movies. Karate Cops ranks up there with some of the greatest bin movies ever - Mind Trap, Champagne and Bullets, Miami Connection, White Fire. You have to watch this movie.

Bobby, Chuck, Lee, Lady Leah, and Mike discuss an Italian Poliziotteschi movie from infamous director Ruggero Deodato (Cannibal Holocaust and Raiders of Atlantis). Are the good guys worse than the bad guys? Was Deodato able to refrain from animal abuse? Was Mike's Mom in the movie?! All this, and more!

Fuastus, Bobby, Mike, and eventually Tim discuss a Giallo movie that answers the question as old as time... can you get busy in a row boat?

Bobby, Candice, Robby, and Mike discuss an over the top action movie starring infamous Grindbin All Star C. Thomas Howell. Featuring action sequences where literally hundreds of people are killed. It's an insane ride that can't be missed. 

The bin will be back with an all new episode next week. For now, enjoy a recent mini bin episode from our Patreon http://patreon.com/grindbin

Tim, Vaughn, and Mike discuss a great little slasher movie from the 70's starring Hal Holbrook and Lawrence Dane. Some great filmmaking discussion in this episode as well as plenty of patented Yobo Gold. 

Bottling eating, bear fighting, Junipero Serra in a wrestling ring, Sgt. Slaughter with someone else's voice; this Pro Wrestling movie is a ridiculous good time. Captain Jack and Tanner join Bobby and Mike in a main event you don't want to miss... just watch out for that ref Mike Stickler! 

Bobby, Steve & Izzy, and Mike talk about a a movie from the Director of Cruel Jaws. What happens when you mix a post apocalyptic movie with an animal attack movie? Except all the animals are just really high rats? 

Bobby, Shane, and Mike discuss a body horror movie from Australia. Test experiments which cause rapid body decomposition haunt a small town but all anyone cares about is getting a drug on the shelves of the local Koalamart. 

Bobby, Candice, and Mike right a wrong and revisit a movie that  should have won a previous listener poll. ICED is a straight to VHS treasure that has never been re-released. 

Bobby, Jonathan from Rewind Road Trip ( rewindroadtrip.com ), and Mike discuss an interesting choice for Oscar Nominee Piper Laurie.  Fresh off her nominated role in 1976's Carrie, and after nearly a decade away from the screen, Pipe Laurie chose to star in this lesser known horror film about a woman running a haunted drive-in. An absolute disaster from start to finish, Ruby is the perfect choice...

Bobby, Mann, and Mike discuss the infamous Roddy Piper distopian "classic" Hell Comes to Frogtown. A movie that's long been requested for the bin  finally makes its way onto the show. Was the wait worth it? Is it a way out?

The Grindbin will be back next week with an all new, 3 hours episode... For now, enjoy this MINI BIN classic with rapmaster Freddy!

Bud Spencer and Terence Hill FINALLY make their first appearance on the Grindbin. Bobby, Lee, Vaughn, and Mike discuss this comedic classic. Featuring Donald Pleasance as a Nazi psychologist, the strangest carnival game we've ever seen, and a story about a man who downs cans of Bush's beans on the regular.

Bobby, Yobo, and Mike talk about a wrestling movie that's  not a wrestling movie. Written and Starring Mini Lesseos, this is one of those classic Grindbin auteur films like Champaigne and Bullets, Miami Connection, and Demon Cop.
