We’ve seen some pretty amazing things so far in this year’s Summer Film Fest - ghosts; sweaty dancing; outdated Rodney King jokes - but nothing quite as spectacular as what our next explosive entry promises…water. Lots of water. I’m your Host and Deacon, Dave, and joining me are fellow cinephiles and Smoker cousins Mike, Jackie, Cody, and special returning guest - Funderdome’s most talented Mermai...

The podcast which you are about to hear is an account of the tragedy which befell a group of three youths, in particular Cody Eastlick and his mermaid stunt show performer/mistress, Lincoln. It is all the more tragic that they were young. But, had they lived very, very long lives, they could not have expected nor would they have wished to see as much of the mad and the macabre as they were to see...

After doing three episodes of the RoboPod and having to constantly look over our shoulders to see what crime is going to be perpetrated on us next, we’ve decided to take a brief vacation from the dangerous streets of Old Detroit and take Saturday Morning Apocalypse to Gotham City, where nothing bad ever happens. I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we slap on our utility belts are fellow cartoon...

Parallel Reality movies are hard to come by in the Wasteland, so whenever a rip in space time occurs, or Cross Rift Parcel Service is running deliveries in your area, it behooves one to make sure that they jump on the chance to watch any cinema from a non-post apocalyptic timeline. Unfortunately, for yours truly, I missed out on the multiverse comedy/drama Everything, Everywhere, All at Once that...

Happy Friday the 13th, everybody! I can’t believe I’m saying this, but for once I’m not the one who’s forcing the staff to watch a Jason flick. It appears that my co-host and favorite Shift Lead, Mike, has finally embraced the spirit of the holiday and taken it upon himself to force us into an obligatory screening of a Friday the 13th film. And not just any Friday the 13th – this time, Jason isn’t...

Captain’s Log Stardate: 43745.2 With the unpleasant encounter with the Borg behind us, the Apocalypse Video Trek Cast takes a much needed vacation with Season 3’s Captain’s Holiday . I must admit, I am very interested in discovering the origins of the mysterious Risian Horga’hn – better known on our program as the Risian DTF statue. Here’s hoping we get some light adventure, a few pervy moments wi...

As manager of Apocalypse Video, I’ve had to deal with many things; roaming mutant hordes, nuclear fallout, occasional attacks by ptera-people - but never have I dealt with anything as fiendish and insulting as what I am presented with this week. And from my own employees nonetheless. Despite everything I’ve done for them – a short eighteen hour work day, free mildly radiated popcorn, and a generou...

Valentine’s Day may have been a couple of months ago, but I for one will not rest until I can watch romantic comedies again with my former human friend - now all powerful, all knowing A.I. - Chad. Surely there must be a film out there that will activate Chad’s newly installed emotion chip! Something funny…something late 80s…something…Rob Reinery… I’m your host, Dave, and joining me are fellow cine...

What will we find in this vast, unexplored area of the galaxy? Benevolent creatures who just want to say hello? Or will we find a species of...

A word of advice for anyone practicing dark magic out there…it’s tougher than it looks. Now, I’ll be the first to admit, I may have been hasty in my decision to use the powers of darkness in an attempt to bring Chad back to life – but given that it resulted in us watching an old childhood favorite this week, I can’t complain too much. Aside from the hole in the roof caused by the freak lightning s...
