Welcome fellow SLEAZOIDS!!! Come along as hosts Josh Lewis and Jamie Miller (and, occasionally, guests) go down the rabbit hole of 20th century genre fare from the most influential canon classics to the the trashiest exploitation films we can get our hands on. Each week is a double feature—grindhouse style—where we discuss two films loosely related by subject, genre, actor, filmmaker or franchise and at the end of each episode, along with our HONORARY SLEAZOIDS (click on over to our patreon to become one), we decide on ratings and rankings for each film that's covered. Join us as together we work to uncover the best genre films of 20th century.

329 - ESCAPE FROM... (1971) + CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES (1972) ft. Cameron Fetter
Hosts Josh and Jamie and special returning guest Cameron Fetter (of Podcast About List) continue our discussion of one of the most enduring science-fiction concepts and depressing pop studio franchises of all time THE PLANET OF THE APES with a double feature of arguably the two best sequels. Don Taylor's ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES (1971) which takes the franchise in a fun fish-out-of-water time travel adventure movie direction until its suddenly an incredibly upsetting 70s political thriller + J. Lee Thompson's more action-heavy entry CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES (1972) which begins as a retro Orwellian sci-fi dystopia and eventually turns into a fiery armed ape prison uprising.

327 - 5000 FINGERS OF DR. T (1953) + INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES... (1964) ft. Charles Pinion
Hosts Josh and Jamie and special guest filmmaker Charles Pinion (the director behind scuzzy and psychedelic shot-on-video art-horror films we've covered including RED SPIRIT LAKE, TWISTED ISSUES and WE AWAIT) discuss two surreal musical fantasies that he loved growing up and informed his own directing style: Roy Rowland's Dr. Suess scripted take on a dark post-war WIZARD OF OZ-style imaginatively dreamlike, Technicolor children's fantasy THE 5000 FINGERS OF DR. T (1953) and infamous cult trash filmmaker Ray Dennis Steckler's no-budget Long Beach amusement park "monster musical" THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES WHO STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED-UP ZOMBIES!!? (1964).
