Episode 221 is not about a horror movie, to be completely honest. But it is about a delightfully bad 80’s fantasy martial arts movie that eventually features Angus Scrimm, “The Tall Man” from the “Phantasm” franchise. So there, it’s horror-adjacent. It’s not for lack of effort that this movie is how it is. Truth be told, the people financing “The Lost Empire” (1984) wanted to just make a bad movie...

Episode 220 is about Horror Westerns. Or Western Horrors? No, the first one! You’d think that the violent, rough frontier of the Old West and all that goes with it would be a convenient canvas on which to create a horror movie. It seems that this isn’t so easy after all! Your dear hosts give it a good effort, but end up focusing on “High Moon” more than anything. Is this because it’s the best of t...
