Earth-2.net Presents...

The Disney Renaissance takes a turn just around the river bend as Christian and Emma (and Will via email) survey the pretty but problematic Pocahontas.

Sometimes something sounds like it's gonna be an absolute riot before you actually have to do it. Anyway, Here's 2015's Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre. Before you ask, no, there's no women's prison. Or a massacre. Email: info@channel-37.com Twitter: @WHXN37

This week, Desmond and Duane review the Boris Karloff / Christopher Lee / Barbara Steele film Curse of the Crimson Altar (aka The Crimson Cult). Then, for no particular reason, we do a Dread Media Top 5 Late-Era Horror Legend Team-Up Films. Songs included: "Mattel" by Avenged Sevenfold, "Cultists on Board" by The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets, "The Fall" by The Lumbar Endeavor, and "Unalive" by...

Songs included: "Acid Queen" from Tommy by Tina Turner, "Nemesis" by Wolves in Winter, "We Don't Need Another Hero" by Ghost, "Not Today" The Lumbar Endeavor. RIP Tina Turner and Ray Stevenson.

Hot on the heels of Charles III's coronation and armed with the inevitable Star Wars references, Christian and Tom appraise Disney's big and bold, Elton John-, Hans Zimmer-, and Zulu choir-infused cinematic juggernaut The Lion King! Do its themes, songs, performances, and visuals still resonate through the ages, or does its roar now ring hollow nearly 30 years after its initial release?

Memorial Day Weekend! A perfect time for picnics, cookouts, and watching 30-year-old teenagers hold surfboards without ever getting in the water! We’re kicking off summer 2023 by heading back to summer 1965 and sneaking into a twin bill of Beach Blanket Bingo and The Beach Girls and the Monster! Email: info@channel-37.com Twitter: @WHXN37

Well, Nicolas Cage didn't have fun filming it, and Bryan and Desmond didn't have fun watching it. But they enjoyed talking about it - among other diversions and tangents. Next stop on the Cage Dive is Francis Ford Coppola's Rumble Fish. There's a huge amount of talent involved in this one, but it's an art film that finds a pretentious rut and stays there. We have a fun time talking about it, nonet...

Ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah! This week on the show, Desmond is down with the sickness, but him and Duane deliver a double feature of short reviews of non-themed movies. First up, a peepshow stripper teams up with a Christian protester at the end of the world in Revealer. Then, a disgraced former detective gets embroiled in a serial killer plot in his own neighborhood in the Japanese film Creepy. Songs include...

This week on the show, Desmond and Tom look back at the beginnings of the career of Mike Flanagan and his film Oculus. In it, two very recognizable siblings reckon with their past through the use of a haunted mirror. So, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Haunted / Cursed Things Films. Songs included: "Coming Alive" by Enforcer, "Mirror" by Mercyful Fate, "Christine" by John Carpenter, and "...

In this sultan-sized edition of the show, Christian and Donovan pour over the details, delights, and dated moments of the 1992 blockbuster Aladdin - home to some of Disney's finest heroes, villains, and songs, along with one of Robin Williams' most magnetic performances!

We see a Full Moon rising! We're gonna explore the early days of Charles Band's empire with 1985's Trancers (yes, we know, that one's technically Empire, shut up) and 1989's Puppet Master, all while trying to figure out how a company that started out consistently entertaining ended up making Barbie and Kendra Storm Area 51 or whatever.

This week, Desmond and Duane review the ridiculous Spookies. Then Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Tiny Multiple Monster Movies That Are Named After the Monsters. That might be the longest Top 5 title ever! Songs included: "The Creeps" by Social Distortion, "Spooky Jive" by Lordi, "Playing with Dolls" by Slayer, "No Strings on Me" by Darkhold.

The Flickchart Forum returns to chart how the Star Wars franchise has gone from having an obvious worst movie 40 years ago to a less obvious worst movie after the release of eight more movies since the original trilogy. Ian Wilson is joined by Michael David Sims and Dan Toland to go over the three trilogies of The Skywalker Saga and the two Star Wars Stories from the late 2010s. Is the obvious fil...

This week's show is the promised Ask May Anything episode that was announced and came together very quickly. Listeners ask your intrepid host about all sorts of wild, weird things from real-life scares to fantasy superhero teams to, frankly, complete filth that I'm not too happy about. LOL. Every song in this episode has been released in the past few weeks except for one which is the world podcast...

This episode, Bryan and Desmond dissect the first credited role to Nicolas Cage: Valley Girl. From having no lines to being the male lead from one role to the next, Cage plays a punk rocker from downtown Hollywood who falls for a girl from the Valley. Shenanigans ensue.

Pride and prejudice. Stockholm Syndrome and suicide. Flickchart and foolishness. All of this and much more is discussed as Christian, Pandy, and Kelly size up Beauty and the Beast, the first animated film to bother the Academy Awards Best Picture nominations and one of the most beloved Disney films of all time. (RIP Angela Lansbury.)

From the depths of the nightmare plane they return! One is previously underappreciated and currently receiving a modern re-evaluation. The other is super goofy and has the Wings lady in it. Get your Jolt Cola and stay awake for 1985's A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge and 1987's Slumber Party Massacre II! Email: info@channel-37.com Twitter: @WHXN37

This week on the show, Desmond and Tom barely survive their encounter with Slayers. Then, for no reason whatsoever, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Most Annoying / Worst Characters in Horror Cinema. Songs included: "Pride" by Hellacopters, "Bloodline" by Slayer, "Fuck People" by OFF!, and "Your Morning Kill" by Spotlights. Don't forget to send me questions for the Dread Media AMA next wee...

This week, Dread Media goes metal! More metal than usual, I mean. Desmond and Duane take a look at the heavy metal horror film The Devil's Candy. Then, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Heavy Metal Movies. And we continue our run of playing brand new (for the most part) heavy metal music with these badass tunes: "Art Groupie" by Voodoocult, "By Demons Be Driven" by Pantera, "Waste of Myself...

Three eggs for the eagle queen, under the sky; seven for the poacher in his lair of stone; nine for the captured kid, begging to die; none for the bent bird with his back thrown, in the land of Australia where the sequel lies. One Will to rule them all, one Christian to wonder, "Why were there no more sequels after The Rescuers Down Under?" (Note: No Australians or Tolkien fans were hurt in the ma...

Both of this week's movies probably had a plot, but we couldn't bother following them. One of them had a lawyer, we think? Doesn't matter. We're here to sing the fiery, kick-punchy, bullet-riddled praises of this year's nominees in the category for Greatest Movies Called Above the Law, Not Starring Steven Seagal Division: 1989's Action USA and 1986's Righting Wrongs! Email: info@channel-37.com Twi...

This week on the show, Duane stops by to chat with Desmond about The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil. Then Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Asian Crime Films. Songs included: "Vengeance (The Pact)" by Tribulation, "Deal with the Devil" by Judas Priest, "Without a Conscience" by Obituary, and "Shot Down" by Scowl.

We're back, and it's Desmond's turn to interview Bryan about his Nic Cage fandom before they dive into a meaty review of Nicolas Coppola's feature film debut. Now, not even being Uncle Frank's nephew can guarantee a glorious film debut because, while the film is pretty widely considered a classic, our subject barely appears on-screen and utters zero lines. But why? Listen to our review of Fast Tim...

This week, Desmond and Tom finally sit down to talk about the Ken Russell masterpiece Altered States. Then, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Transcendental / transformative Films. And all but one of the following songs were released in 2023: "Rebirth" by Night Demon, "Altered State" by Sepultura, "The Void" by Hail the Void, and "Everything is Endlessness" by Venomous Concept.

The Brothers Wilson return to bring you the first proper episode of Hey, An Actor! for 2023, spotlighting Eddie Murphy. Trying to capture the eclectic talents of their subject in the space of three films is a tricky ask, but Ian and Pandy persevere with Murphy's 80s comedy hit Coming to America, his 90s hidden gem collaboration with Steve Martin Bowfinger, and his Oscar-nominated turn in Motown-in...
