Heather and Mike continue Pride month with another Clive Barker movie. this time its about leather fetishists and sexual “freedom” which is honestly just terrible awful stuff that people either shouldn’t be able to get off on, or actively flee from. we do share some queer history about how the leather daddy symbol came to be. Check out Heathers podcast Wednesday Wine and Horror We are hosted at Ca...

Heather has woven her magic and brought us to the 90’s where we see a film that doesn’t have anything particularly gay about it, but has a massive following with the Lesbian community, so we give it a review and see if the 90’s classic holds up. Check out Heathers podcast Wednesday Wine and Horror We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions and theme months. If you...

Heather remains here for Pride month as we comb through the coded closest of the 1950’s for the movie that inspired Psycho and was quite ahead of its time in many regards, such as dialogue, and honesty about subject matter like infidelity and spousal abuse, but also succumbs to the conventions of its time, likely for marketability to North American theaters. It’s quite a movie. and one with strong...

Heather from Wednesday Wine and Horror joins Mike to celebrate Pride Month for this year. We will take a look back on Queer cinema and celebrate it all, from the coded to the obvious, the villains, to the heroes, the directors to the cast. We hope you will learn something or at least be entertained as we start with the first of 2 Black and White films that mask queer themes since they couldn’t be...

Mike is joined by returning guest Gio P from the Gio Show podcast to tackle feminism and jungle survival in this movie that suprisingly wasnt much of a horror but a stunningly accurate portrayal of 80’s view on women’s equality and the fear that some men had of it.

We discuss the Directors Cut of Nightbreed (1990) and Heather has some thoughts on certain body parts (no shortage of that in this movie) while Mike just wants some things to make sense.

Heather joins Mike to review the movie about a good boy gone bad, a Pinto gone worse, and a c-plot about cereal that causes more fear and harm than the main storyline.

Mike is joined by Eric and Heather from Wednesday Wine and Horror to discuss the 1986 film Critters. From intergalactic bounty hunters, to useless sisters and a rock star who can never show his face in Kansas again, the tiny fuzzballs of death will have their tiny hands full trying to get a bite to eat on a tiny planet called Earth. Check out Heathers podcast Wednesday Wine and Horror Eric reviews...

A story about 2 women would not be reviewed well unless discussed by 2 women, so Mike is joined by returning guest Heather Silmon (of the podcast Wednesday Wine and Horror) and Lydia Manson ( Producer of the House That Eats Flesh, in production right now) to discuss the classic film that pitted 2 real life starlets (and enemies) together. We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us...

Author Michelle Bowser joins Mike to discuss another Hammer film. Does it hold up to the earlier entries? Does it take any opportunity to see how a Victorian Era aristocrat finds his place in modern London? We get into it. Join us and find out. You can also find Michelle online @: https://www.facebook.com/BurningBulbPublishing/ https://twitter.com/MichelleBowser We are hosted at Captivate where yo...

Mike is joined by Heather Silmon, a fan of watching horror and ranting about horror! We cover Troll, the heartwarming tale of a troll and his friend (both played by Phil Fondacaro) and the disturbing transformations of one Sony Bono. We talk the whiny brother played by the kid who fought against the Nothing but now cant stop being a tattle tale and a terrible Harry Potter Jr. Also Micheal Moriarty...

Mike is joined by Rich Rehder to discuss a Netflix original by Broadway Video. Yes Lorne Michaels made a horror film! and its really entertaining. 3 boys struggle to save their neighbourhood from the scourge of undead gentrification. Can the community survive or will this be another block you don’t pass through at night? We are hosted at Captivate where you can tip us to send us movie suggestions...

Mike and Eric are finally reaching the end of the March of the Leprechaun. because we love irony, we have reached the finale with Origin. Which is also ironically not an origin but a completely different leprechaun entirely. gone is the hat and shoes with buckles, we have a feral beast. However he’s not a CGI creation but played by a wrestler who ironically played a leprechaun in the WWE. Lot of I...

Michael King is joined by Michael King and Michael King to discuss the lack of sympathy they feel towards Michael King. OK here’s the explanation. Michael King (the host) is joined by 2 other Michael Kings who are actors in LA to discuss a found footage horror film called The Possession of Micheal King. We eventually figure out how to tell each other apart as we can all agree on Michael King being...

In space, no one can hear you scream. But in cyberspace, you CAN hear us review the 1996 home video horror that beat Jason Vorhees going to space by several years and it comes off like a first draft for it in every way. Mike is joined by Eric and Richard Rehder to see what happen when space marines have no idea what a leprechaun is, and the “strong, intelligent, and capable woman” is written by so...

The original Leprechaun is back, but not the original actor. It’s the original character. but not like the other sequels cause that same actor played different Leprechauns. All credited with the same name. Its a mess. But this film is surprisingly…not. Eric and Mike revel in the return of the original 4 Leaf cleaver who awakens to a new world 25 years later. The sorority full of environmentalists...

Themes return to the Graveyard Shift as does Eric to usher in the March of the Leprechauns. It’s more of a waddle but you know what we mean. Warwick Davis made his mark on the horror world as the Celtic killer with a penchant for clean footwear and we are on board for the entire month (save for a possible birthday present for Mike to be determined later in the month). We are hosted at Captivate wh...

Before there was Soylent Green making use of the dead, there was just Green, giving them some vigor. Based loosely on the HP Lovecraft story, this film is iconic, though much like The Thing, it was only truly appreciated after its theatrical release. But it eventually got the love it deserves, right here on the Graveyard Shift. Mike is joined by actor Bryan Enright to praise this classic. Bryan ha...

Dustin Rucker joins Mike in the studio to discuss a movie that was a far better experience than it was a film. Produced by William Castle, a man known for his gimmicks and love of the macabre. Castle remained truly young at heart. which explains why the scary moments in this film seem like they were directed by a 13 year old.
