This week, just like mixing our peanut butter with our chocolate, we are doing a deep dive into our top 5 favorite Comedic Horror Movies! Comedic Horror movies might arguably be one of the hardest genres to try and crack with very few successes.

This week, we are diving head first into spooky season by analyzing what arguably might be the lowest point of The Alien Franchise (not counting Resurrection, Alien Vs.

A movie that takes all the things you loved about Alien and Aliens and dumps i...

This week, Brian and John are again running the show sans Laine, sparing her the horror of reviewing what arguably might be the biggest budget B movie of all time.

This week, we are saddened by the sudden passing of Director Joel Schumacher.   A filmmaker that we have had a truly love hate relationship with over his vast rollercoaster ride of a career.   He gave us fantastic gritty tension filled films like Falling Down and Phone Booth, a beautiful and truly terrifying take on vampires with The Lost Boys, and of course some of the worst incarnations of Batma...

This week, we are taking a trip back to a time when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, or more or less the films of the world.   No we are not talking about Jurassic Park, we are talking about 1994's   Tammy and The T Rex.   The absolute best movie about   a mad scientist played by Bernie Lomax from Weekend at Bernie's who transplants Paul Walker's brain into a mechanical dinosaur.   Did I mention that th...

This week we have quite a treat for you all Psychos Nation!   You might remember that a few months back, we reviewed the little indie sci fi drama, "Mnemophrenia."   We loved the film as it forced us to examine our relationships with technology and question the ideas about the nature of reality and memory.   Well, this week we have the filmmaker behind the film, Eirini Konstantinidou and lead acto...

This week, with the Pentagon releasing video footage of what appears to be UFOs, we figured why not look at what the worst case scenario would be for an alien attack by examining the 1996 Tim Burton interstellar classic, Mars Attacks!   Boasting a deep ensemble cast including such luminaries as Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, and a yet to be famous Jack Black, the film is often forgot about when disc...

This week we are back and sounding somewhat better.   We're testing out a new recording process with Cleanfeed in light of the you know....And what better way to christen this new process than by reminiscing about movies that everyone seems to love but for one reason or another generate a deep seated hatred in our black hearts.   So if you've ever been in that situation where you're the odd ball w...

We are breaking down the 30 year's young classic, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.   A movie that quite honestly is the best movie about anthropomorphic teenaged turtles that we'll probably ever g...
