    Episode 48 - The Troma Episode

    It was fated to happen sooner or later. For the third season finale, we highlight the debuts of directors given their start by the outrageous Troma Productions! James Gunn got his start in the industry with 1996's Tromeo and Juliet. Then, before co-creating MST3K, Jim Mallon gave the world 1987's Blood Hook. Finally, Trey Parker was finding his voice with 1993's Cannibal! The Musical. A shpadoinkle day, indeed.Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 47 - Showgirls and Gold Diggers of 1933

    The dream of achieving fame and glory on the stage is a tale older than cinema. Take the story one way, and you get 1995's Showgirls! Tweak it just a bit, and you wind up with Gold Diggers of 1933!.Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 46 - Biggles: Adventures in Time and Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase

    We've got our finger on the pulse of today, and never have we proven it more effectively than with a look at the properties your grandparents held dear. We open things up with 1986's Biggles: Adventures in Time, in which Dave takes the time out of his day to explain to us what a Biggles is. Next, we were a surprised as you were by 2019's Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase.Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 45 - Rock and Rule and Yellow Submarine

    It's our annual animation episode! The unholy melding of 1980s pop and Canadian animation provide a timeless tale of good v evil, but evil is brought to us by Lou Reed and Iggy Pop, so we're okay with it, in 1983's Rock and Rule! Then, one of our intrepid band will rock the earth to its very foundations as we cover the 1968 classic Yellow Submarine!Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 44 - Godzilla v the Smog Monster and Tremors

    Ancient colossi from beyond the dawn of time do battle for the very soul of humanity. Also, can we just pick up our shit, please, in 1971's Godzilla v the Smog Monster. After that, Kevin Bacon, Earth's Greatest Hero, is all that stands between us and certain death by shai-hulud in 1990's Tremors. How many ways can four people pronounce Hedorah? The answer will amaze you!Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 43 - Rasputin the Mad Monk and Witchfinder General

    While we would never want to accuse anyone of wrapping themselves in religion to justify acts of violence and terror, Hammer Films and Tigon Pictures were not as circumspect as we. However, it does give us the opportunity to see Christopher Lee go full Batman villain in 1966's Rasputin the Mad Monk. After that, Vincent Price actually manages not to go full Batman villain in 1968's Witchfinder General.Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 42 - Grease 2 and Surf 2

    If you liked a movie, you'll love the same thing again, only bigger and more of it! It's a theory we test with 1982's Grease 2! After that, no one is impressed with Dan right now after watching 1984's Surf 2!Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37

    Episode 41.5 - 2025 Halloween Special

    It's our favorite time of year again! We've got two movies that ostensibly feature a countdown to tragedy on Halloween night, but really we're mostly here to talk up Salem tourism with 1993's Hocus Pocus. After that, it's glorious whatthefuckery that only Cannon can bring you with 1990's Rockula, and we wonder where this movie has been all our lives.Email: info@channel-37.comTwitter: @WHXN37
