The Blind Rage podcast: Horror Movie Commentaries

“I’m so horny I could fuck a cow.” Things are going from strange to downright bizarre on this week’s episode of The Blind Rage Podcast, as we take a look at Jackie Kong’s 1987 horror-comedy BLOOD DINER! As children, brothers Michael and George witness the brutal death of their doting Uncle Anwar. 20 years later, they’re running a popular Hollywood diner, which serves exclusively vegetarian cuisine...

“Want a date? Going out? Lookin’ for some action?” On this week’s titillating episode of The Blind Rage Podcast, it’s Frank Henenlotter’s terrifying tale of sluts and bolts, the one and only FRANKENHOOKER! After a freak mishap with an out-of-control lawnmower, Jeffrey Franken’s (James Lorinz) fiancée (Patty Mullen) is eaten by the maniacally spinning blades. Only a few pieces of her remain: an arm...

The Blind Rage Podcast is ringing in the second week of July with Jim Hoskings’ absurdist horror-comedy THE GREASY STRANGLER, one of the most insane films we’ve covered so far. Meet Big Braden, a middle-aged incel, who shares a filthy, mold-coated dwelling with his eccentric father Big Ronny. Together, they conduct disco walking tours, telling fabricated tales of the biggest acts of the ‘70s. It i...

“Can you contract an STD by having sex with a dead person?” The Blind Rage Podcast kicks off this month with Richard Bates, Jr.’s EXCISION, a film destined to be a cult classic. Meet Pauline (AnnaLynne McCord), a high school outcast who aspires to one day become a surgeon. While most who plan for a career in medicine spend their days studying the human body, Pauline believes her understanding of t...

Again, The Blind Rage Podcast says good-bye to one of horror’s most iconic voices, as Stephen King Month 2.0 comes to an end. With this fond farewell, we’ll be discussing A GOOD MARRIAGE, a seemingly overlooked adaptation of a novella, which appeared in the 2010 collection FULL DARK, NO STARS. Heavily inspired by the BTK case, Joan Allen stars as Darcy, an ordinary suburban housewife, who discover...

Summer’s only a few days away and The Blind Rage Podcast is celebrating the hottest time of year with another Stephen King adaptation! In 1985’s CAT’S EYE, we’re introduced to an adorable little tabby, who journeys from place to place in search of something unknown. Between ventures, he finds himself in the midst of some rather unusual circumstances. First, we have a father (James Woods) who decid...

Stephen King Month 2.0 continues on The Blind Rage Podcast! For week two, we’re taking a look at the 1990 anthology TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE: THE MOVIE, a spinoff of the 1980s television series, featuring a stacked cast of well-knowns, including: Christian Slater, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, William Hickey, and legendary rock star Debbie Harry. A young Matthew Lawrence stars as Timmy, a neighbor...

SURPRISE!!! The Blind Rage Podcast is back with more Stephen King goodness! That’s right, Ragers (which is a name I’ve been meaning to dub the podcast’s most dedicated listeners the past few years, but as it should come as no surprise, I forgot). June is Stephen King Month 2.0! Kicking things off is CREEPSHOW 2, the 1987 sequel to the immortal cult classic! Though it may only contain three segment...

Sadly, we’ve reached the end of Stephen King Month here on The Blind Rage Podcast. However, we’re going out with an absolute banger: George Romero’s 1982 cult classic anthology CREEPSHOW! This is a movie that has it all: furry monsters in crates, bloodthirsty sea creatures, the reanimated corpse of an abusive father, hundreds of thousands of roaches, and a stacked cast of amazing actors. We have T...

Stephen King Month continues on The Blind Rage Podcast! For week three, we’re taking a look at the 2002 made-for-TV adaptation of CARRIE, starring Angela Bettis (MAY) in the title role. I’m struggling to come up with something to say about the original story that hasn’t already been said a thousand times. Unless you were born in the past decade or so, you know the classic tale of a teenage outcast...

“She can’t be dead. MISERY CHASTAIN CANNOT BE DEAD.” The Blind Rage Podcast rings in the second week of Stephen King month with an absolute banger: Kathy Bates and James Caan in Rob Reiner’s stellar adaptation of MISERY! After a horrific car wreck, romance novelist Paul Sheldon (Caan) wakes to find that instead of being in a hospital, he’s in the home of Annie Wilkes (Bates), a dedicated reader wh...

It’s Stephen King month on The Blind Rage Podcast!!! That’s right, Ragers. Wall-to-wall novel adaptations by one of horror’s most celebrated and recognized titans. We begin with the original 1989PET SEMATARY, a movie that was nightmare fuel for at least 3 generations. And how could it not be? It features the brutal demise of a toddler, a zombified cat, the severing of an Achilles tendon, a split-o...

The Blind Rage Podcast wraps FINAL DESTINATION month with the fifth entry in the lucrative franchise. This time around, we’re introduced to a group of co-workers who narrowly escape death after an accident causes a horrific bridge collapse. Unfortunately, it’s more of the same, with the exception of one very minor component: sacrificing the life of someone else to save your own. The best part of t...

FINAL DESTINATION month is rapidly coming to a close here on The Blind Rage Podcast. This week, we visit the fourth installment in the lucrative franchise, which sees a group of friends attending a stock car race. A ghastly premonition falls upon Nick, this entry’s lead, and he immediately realizes he has to get the stadium cleared before the structure collapses. Unfortunately, he’s too late. Seve...

The Blind Rage Podcast enters the third week of FINAL DESTINATION month with…well, FINAL DESTINATION 3. For this go-round (see what I did there?) we’re introduced to a group of high school seniors celebrating graduation at an amusement park. A little low-rent, if you ask me. Especially when compared to the group of kids in the original film, whose plans were to celebrate their high school graduati...

FINAL DESTINATION month continues on The Blind Rage Podcast! In 2003’s FINAL DESTINATION 2, Kimberly (AJ Cook) sets off on a road trip with some friends. During the drive, she has a startling vision of a massive pile-up, which will leave several people dead. Along with some others, she manages to escape the wreckage before the first collision. Their relief is short-lived, however. Death has once a...

It’s FINAL DESTINATION month on The Blind Rage Podcast! Kicking things off is the 2000 original, which started it all. Though critics tore it to shreds, this one was a video store essential when it first landed on VHS, not to mention a movie everyone, not just horror fanatics, talked about.

Here on The Blind Rage Podcast, FRIDAY THE 13TH month comes to an end. Join us as we wrap things up with 2003’s FREDDY Vs. JASON, a movie fans of both franchises had been clamoring for. Sadly, what we received wasn’t at all worth the wait. FREDDY Vs. JASON is a mishmash of plot holes, weak performances, bad dialogue, and some of the worst one-liners from everyone’s favorite charred villain. There...

It’s week three of FRIDAY THE 13TH month on The Blind Rage Podcast and I’m sorry to present…JASON GOES TO HELL: THE FINAL FRIDAY. As a fan himself, Adam Marcus clearly tried to create a sequel Jason fanatics would love. Sadly, this one falls short. In a number of areas. We get a heaping helping of convoluted backstory no one really asked for. Some bizarre body-jumping. The incorporation of THE EVI...

“You didn’t get me in the lake…and you’re not gonna get me now.” It’s the second week of March and FRIDAY THE 13TH month continues on The Blind Rage Podcast! JASON TAKES MANHATTAN isn’t exactly the most appropriate subtitle for the 8th installment of the franchise. But, as has been explained many times, the production wasn’t given a large enough budget for director Rob Hedden to accomplish even a...

It’s FRIDAY THE 13th month on The Blind Rage Podcast! We’re kicking things off with THE NEW BLOOD, the seventh entry in the legendary franchise, featuring a heroine with telekinetic powers (Lar Park Lincoln) set to do battle with Jason Voorhees (played for the first time by fan favorite Kane Hodder). All aboard! This bus is headed for Crystal Lake and it’s leaving now!

“You’re cute, Paul. But you’re not that fuckin’ cute.” The Blind Rage Podcast takes a look at Jamie Blanks’ URBAN LEGEND, one of the few post-SCREAM slashers still widely remembered. And, like SCREAM, cast actors from popular teen dramas (Jared Leto of MY SO-CALLED LIFE; Joshua Jackson of DAWSON’S CREEK) to help create the ensemble. The most memorable performances, however, are by horror icons Rob...

For this week’s episode of The Blind Rage Podcast, we’re focused on a film some would call…uh…an acquired taste, I imagine. When it comes to the avenues of the extreme, 29 NEEDLES runs the gamut, exploring taboo subjects such as sounding, self-harm, bloody ejaculations, sadomasochism, and just a smidge of torture. Definitely not for everyone, which is why Grindhouse released it under their “Too Ex...

The Blind Rage Podcast returns to The Land Down Under for Greg McLean’s 2013 sequel WOLF CREEK 2. With a much higher body count, buckets of gore, and an oh so familiar cackle, the expansive roads of the Australian Outback run red as Mick Taylor embarks on another blood-soaked rampage.

This week on The Blind Rage Podcast, we’re returning to The Land Down Under for Greg McLean’s cult classic WOLF CREEK! Brutal and oftentimes extreme, McLean’s celluloid nightmare holds up quite well. With its simple premise involving three backpackers who are accosted by a maniac in the middle of nowhere, it’s a raw terror that could—and does—happen to anyone. The thought of being lost in the Aust...
