THE RANCOR from STAR WARS - 067
How many Mark Hammills can YOU eat?!
RETURN OF THE JEDI's voluminous pit nightmare is perhaps the ultimate in STAR WARS monstrosities, as well as one of its most enduring toys.
But is it bitchin' van art?
We also crack the nut on what all the STAR WARS media is secretly about...and hint...knobs are involved.
+++PS FANS: sorry about my mouse noise on this one, I'm gonna have that fixed by next episode+++

MARTIN the teenage vampire? 1977 - 067
One of George A. Romero's lesser known monster films explores whether MARTIN, as portrayed by John Amplas, is actually a cursed bloodsucker from the days or yore, or just a deranged teen alienated by cultish superstition and mental derangement.
This bleak, savage, but oddly poignant portrayal of alienation in the rust belt modernity of 1970s Pennsylvania explores issues of sanity, doubt, religion, and the fracturing of society.

NOPE - 066
Look to the skies with us this week as Gavin presents his take on Jordan Peele's UFO waking nightmare from 2022.
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS EVERYWHERE!
If you haven't already watched the film, we strong recommend you do so before enjoying this episode.
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a giant flying sand-dollar that sucks up horses into its multi-use sphincter.
You spit into the wind, you don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger and YOU DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE CHIMP.

The Nazi Zombies of SHOCKWAVES & DEAD SNOW - 065
Strap in your stepping geese and polish your Schmeisser submachine guns cuz it's pissed off nazi time! You thought the zombies in YOUR life were pissed, wait til you meet these undead European meanies. They're coming out of the ocean, they're coming out of the snow, and you better not have any of their gold or you're going to get what's coming to you.
Gavin and Hess explore the through-lines that unite these and other iterations of the nazi zombie phenomenon and place that firmly inside the larger category of "European zombies", which, we learn, are utterly distinct from those originating here in the USA.
Also, check out the film RAMPANT, about Korean zombies taking over a medieval city.

PixelLit Podcast - https://pixellitpod.com
Phil and Hess conclude their dive into all things THING by looking at what the authors of each version included (dogs) and sometimes excluded (mind-reading-Thing), as well as personal anecdotes, and a lot of love for the 2002 THE THING videogame.
