Grindbin Podcast - Grindhouse and Exploitation Films

Happy Deezember... in June... Mike was unable to finish editing the episode this week so here is a taste of a Patreon exclusive episode from waaaaay back. Enjoy!

Bobby, The McCollums and Mike discuss a movie about a killer car that's not called Christine. A killer car is on the loose is a small desert town and it's up to James Brolin to stop it. Thanks to Patreon member John Corbin for this pick!

This episode is brought to you by Grindbin All-Star Tim from our Patreon. Aakhri Adaalat marks the first Hindi film to appear on the Grindbin and the boys have brought their resident film expert Faustus to explain the world of Hindi cinema and discuss one hell of a movie. If you were to describe this movie in 3 words: Hindi Death Wish... 

Grindbin All-star Hal Needham has sent us an Angel in the form of the gloriously bad 80's BMX film RAD. Does the director of Smokey and the Bandit know anything about BMX bikes? Is Lori Loughlin trying to scam her way into college? Did this kid actually spend 10 grand on T-shirts? Well get ready to go ass sliding with the bin and find out. 

Leo Fong, Cameron Mitchell, and Stack Pierce return to the Grindbin for a second helping of that infamous Fong charisma. While Killpoint established Leo Fong as an action star, Low Blow shows us that Leo is both a ladies man and a comedian. A real triple threat!

Do you like punk music? Do you like skateboards? Do you like Greek mythology? Well you will LOVE Shredder Orpheus... 

Pinball Summer (1980), a movie that is supposed to be about harmless fun and teens enjoying a summer break is anything but. You want to lose your faith in humanity? Fire up Pinball Summer! What the hell is wrong with Canada?!

Steve and Izzy from Everything I Leaned from Movies ( https://twitter.com/eilfmovies ) join The McCollum boys, Bobby, and Mike for an epic episode of the Grindbin. In one of Cameron Mitchell's drunkest performances yet and certainly his best role on the bin, Killpoint is a Crown International action movie that is so bad it must be seen. Featuring action "star" Leo Fong in a deadpan performance tha...

The boys are joined by Nick ( https://thecreaturecodex.tumblr.com/ ) to talk about a monster movie from Crown International! The Crater Lake Monster, not filmed at Crater Lake, and featuring some of the best day for night shots you'll ever see, is a fun throwback to the heights of Loch Ness fever. 

The boys have finally reached episode 200 of the Grindbin and what better way to celebrate than by covering Supervan (1977). Thanks to all our wonderful listeners who've stuck with us and all the new people that have hitched a ride on the Straight Arrow along the way. Bobby, start the van!

The boys go back to school in great exploitation gem from a Grindbin all star director. A new teacher at a troubled inner-city high school (Perry King) soon ends up clashing with the delinquent leader of a punk posse (Timothy Van Patten) that runs the school. Featuring an appearance by a pre-Back to the Future Michael J. Fox!

Centerfold Girls is everything you could want in a Grindbin movie: it's sleazy, it's ridiculous, and it's a real hidden gem. A religious fanatic hunts down the girls of the month in a men's magazine - and he's the least of their problems. 

Are you ready for this? Daniel joins Bobby and Mike to discuss a great little horror film from 1986 starring one of the most notorious actors of all time, Klaus Kinski. Thanks to Patreon member Gregory Freeman for recommending this movie!

The Roger Corman classic finally arrives on the Grindbin thanks to our Patreon member Mike Ratcliff! In a dystopian future, a cross country automobile race requires contestants to run down innocent pedestrians to gain points that are tallied based on each kill's brutality.

Tanner is here with some choice clips for the Grindbin audience from his new podcast Burn After Pitching. https://twitter.com/BurnPitching  

From the director of The Pom Pom Girls (1976) and The Good Son (1993) comes one of the worst movies to ever enter the Grindbin. What seems like a simple summer camp movie devolves into one of the most morally troubling and criminally awful films any of us has ever seen. Thanks to our wonderful Patreon members for voting for this film! Enjoy our pain. 

Faustus and the McCollum boys join Mike to talk about one of the most shocking movies to ever come to the Grindbin. Bare Behind Bars is a mysterious women in prison movie from Brazil that features both the 7th and 8th wonders of the world!

DISCLAIMER: this is actually from the Grindbin Patreon... Bobby, Tanner, and Mike recorded this full length episode for the MINI bin in April of 2019. A new Grindbin episode will be out next week!

Mann, Bobby, and Mike are joined by long-time listener and Grindbin Patreon member David from Australia! David brings Ozploitation back to the bin with the legendary Brian Trenchard-Smith flick, Turkey Shoot. We also make him explain himself for choosing Lunch Wagon... and the way back in the early days of the Grindbin.

Bobby and Mike are joined by Patreon member Robby to discuss Grindbin All-Star Russ Meyer's return to the Grindbin. Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, written by Roger Ebert (yes, THAT Roger Ebert), is one of Meyer's only studio films and an interesting piece of exploitation cinema history. 

Bobby and Mike are joined by Eddie (the Axe) to talk about the Patreon Poll pick for this month and the first appearance of the legendary Loyd Kaufman on the Grindbin. What's going on?!

A Patreon request from Richard Clarke brings one of the greatest movies we've ever seen to the Grindbin. House (Hausu) is a MUST watch for any exploitation film fan. The movie finally comes to the Grindbin and Bobby, The Howling Boyz, and Mike couldn't be more excited to try and explain the absolute madness of Hausu. Long live Mac!

On a very special episode of the Grindbin, Tanner, Bobby and Mike discuss the movie SuperSonic Man as it played during the last episode of Son of Svengoolie on WFLD-TV Channel 32 in Chicago. Complete with local commercials from 1986, this is an episode of the Grindbin not to be missed. 

Faustus joins Bobby and Mike to discuss one of the most infamous exploitation movies of all time. A movie that was a massive success, spawned multiple sequels, and was even reviewed in the New York Times, is still as shocking now as it ever was. 

Bobby and Mike are joined by the Howling Boyz to discuss a great, disturbing movie that is a good example of innovative filmmaking in the exploitation genre. The Candy Snatchers is a disturbing and unique film that contains some really surprising twists that certainly separate it from most Grindbin fare. So start swinging those hammers and enjoy!
