EP 194 - Get Mean 29.07.2016

This week Jim Wallace and Jon Cross head to the Kellogg's Diner to discuss the Blue Underground Blu Ray of a mad, sort of, proto-Army of Darkness movie called Get Mean. As the fourth last of 'The Stranger' spaghetti westerns starring Tony Tony as a sudo-Man-With-No-Name, it sends our hero to Spain and into the past as he faces off with crazy Barbarians, gypsy princesses, ghosts, a man who thinks h...

EP 193 - Cell 21.07.2016

This week Jim Wallace and Jon Cross head to a cinema that's like something out of a Clive Barker directed nightmare to watch Cell, starring John Cusack and Samuel L Jackson, surrounded by some of the maddest and smelliest people NYC has to offer.

EP 191 - The King of Comedy 06.07.2016

I am happy to welcome back on to the show our third guest co-host in a row, however he is still unsure about what he feels about it. Yes, that's right! you guessed it! It's the curmudgeon you love to crush on (I know that doesn't quite work but go with it) Marc McDonald (formerly of the now defunct Shlock Treatment podcast which he quit quite a while before it ended because... reasons) is back on...

EP 189 - Quicksand - Caine & Keaton 5 21.06.2016

We are exceptionally thrilled to welcome back Jon Wallace into the Diner to scrape off our sleep riddled eyes and glance them over another Caine & Keaton offering. This time it's VERY exciting as it's a film in which they star together, Quicksand, directed by the maker of The Long Good Friday, clearly one of Caine's cigar and cognac buddies. We also take listener's questions and discuss our favour...

EP 187 - The Watcher 05.05.2016

Jim and I tackle the last of our 4 Sleazy Spader Springtime movies with The Watcher from 2000 that co-stars Keanu Reeves. It's absolute nonsense, cliched madness that's got its share of plot holes, questionable acting choices, crazy uses of stunt doubles and some unpleasant dancing. We also learn about the Director's love of late 90s editing effects, the Spader Sleaze-a-torium and hear the two hos...

EP 186 - Supernova 28.04.2016

Still spritzing amongst the slithery bulbs of a Sleazy Spader Springtime, Jim and I happen upon the bonkers Supernova movie. Co-starring Lou Diamond Philips and Angela Basset it has an even more bonkers behind the scenes story than the confusing pile of cliches that passes for the plot of the actual movie. Hear us unravel all that AND answer your questions on this week's new show! ENJOY! Support u...

EP 185 - Dream Lover 21.04.2016

It's our second week of sleazy Spader springtime and we are trying to wrap our burger stuffed heads around the madness that is Dream Lover. What, I am sure, was meant to be an erotic thriller where, guess what folks, this broad's crazy but instead, because they hired Spader, he wanders through the movie like an Alien discovering skin and speech for the first time. Oh and there's some dream with a...

EP 184 - Jack's Back 12.04.2016

This week we start A sleazy Spader springtime! where we've decided to cover some James Spader movies you probably haven't bothered to watch yet. Well we're going to watch them for you! First up is Jack's Back an absolutely bonkers "whodunnit-serial-killer-action-movie" where we have to figure out if two Spader's means twice the sleaze (or the charm) and just what the hell is going on in this plot-...

EP 183 - Bride of Re-Animator 05.04.2016

This week Jim and I head back to the Kellogg's Diner to discuss the new Arrow Blu Ray release of 1989's Bride of Re-Animator starring Jeffrey Combs and Dan Cain, Directed by Brian Yuzna. It's the sequel to the very popular 80's horror classic Re-Animator and is as equally gory, gooey and funny. ENJOY! Support the After Movie Diner over at www.

EP 182 - Lucio Fulci's The Black Cat 18.03.2016

EP 181 - Malatesta's Carnival of Blood 25.02.2016

This week Jim and I are in Brooklyn at Kellogg's Diner talking the new Arrow US release of 1970s zombie/vampire curio Malatesta's Carnival of Blood.

EP 180 - The Vampire Lovers 04.02.2016

This week Jim Wallace and I take in a retro screening of Hammer studios 1970s collaboration with AIP, The Vampire Lovers starring Peter Cushing and Ingrid Pitt. This sexually charged, fanged tooth outing brings more sultriness to the stiff collars of stuffy period England than previously thought possible. It was probably so risqué at the time that it made audiences tut loudly and shift uncomforta...

EP 179 - Cyclone 28.01.2016

This week I am in Massachusetts with good friend and Hold The Mayo host Jay Mayo. We talk all about the Fred Olen Ray movie Cyclone from 1987 starring Heather Thomas, Jeffrey Combs and Martin Landau all about a super bikes, sweat, spandex and 'splosions. We eat at Carl's where we are amazed at what a staggeringly large portion of food we get, how irresponsible and how American it is. Take a listen...

EP 178 - Anger of the Dead 19.01.2016

Jim Wallace joins me back in the Diner to discuss this little heard of, modern Italian zombie film, Anger of the Dead, produced by the infamous Uwe Boll. Will it be any good? will it be really bad? Are there just too many Zombie movies out there that reviewing another one is like making another one, pretty redundant? Will Jon order a side of gravy? All these questions and more will be answered alo...

EP 177 - NYE Andrew McCarthy-A-Thon 31.12.2015

This year we've got the old New Year's Eve crew of Moe e, Matt Payne and Dr. Action, back together to discuss many many Andrew McCarthy films.
