Black History Month proceeds with another Blaxploitation film based on a literary classic. This film has a LOT to say about black identity, and the duality that permeates the black consciousness. So we are glad to have Christy here to help us break it down. Also this was directed by William Crane, the same guy that gave us Blacula, so expect some similar themes. Both good and bad. We are hosted at...

Black History Month continues. Christy returns for more, and so does the Dark Prince, Mamuwalde! Its time to Scream, Blacula, Scream! Does this film have the same actor as before? YES! Does it have the same quality of plot, music, character, or soul? NO! Does it even have a black director like the first one? NO! Is it possible the lack of quality has something to do with it? YES! We are hosted at...

We are joined by Alicia to ring in the Christmassacre of 2023 with a film that has some existential horror rather than a monster or slasher. but that doesn’t take away its absolute brilliance as a film.

We are joined by a friend named Alicia who helped us watch and discuss a Rankin Bass film we never knew existed.

What do you get when you have a Vincent Price film that was made in Italy and has a more misleading title than the Never Ending Story?

We conclude the Price is Right, with a movie where Price was anything BUT. We however, are not alone! We...
