Episode 177- Halloween Timeline Turmoil

Halloween: 3 Hard Mikes and A Drunk Doctor

     October Horror gathers speed as we crash through the first four films in the Halloween franchise!

    After fifteen years in an asylum, Michael Myers decides its time to take a small walk around his hometown and take in the decorations on Halloween.
    Michael walks to the local hospital, after wounds received earlier that evening, and doesn't receive anything resembling quality care in Halloween II.

    A doctor with a drinking problem and sexual addiction has a breakdown and imagines a ridiculous conspiracy involving the better masks his ex bought for the children he emotionally abuses due to his never ending midlife crisis... or not. Halloween 3: Season of the Witch.

    Finally Mike wakes up from a decade long coma inflicted on him by an obsessed doctor in his last appearance. He decides to go home and try to forge a relationship with his only remaining living relative. Unfortunately, the niece's adoptive sister decides she can't share her with anyone in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. 

    All that and the existential dread the rest of the series conjures gnaws away at the crew. Join us, won't you?

Episode 178- Halloween: 3 Hard Mikes and A Drunk Doctor

Taste the Rainbow

      October Horror continues as we are joined by Christianne Benedict to take a look at four LGBTQIA+ themed films.

    Paris in the summer of 1979. Anne, a director of gay pornographic films, is left by her editor and girlfriend, Lois. While Anne struggles with this, her actors begin being murdered by a mysterious leather clad person with a grudge. Will Anne finish her magnum opus, Homocide, before she stands alone? Will she and Lois find closure? What is the deal with the mystical bird? There might be answers in Knife + Heart.

    Brad and Janet, a pair of young loving lovers who love, are so excited for their engagement they decide they have to visit the professor whose class they first met during. A minor bit of bad luck, during a torrential storm, brings them to the castle of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. This night will be one of tests and awakenings as the vanilla couple are shown such sights. All with some really upbeat music and one of film's most charismatic performances ever. Are you trembling with anticip................ation for The Rocky Horror Picture Show?

    Just a little movie about Jack & Diane, two American kids doing the best that they can. Okay, part of that is a lie. A movie about the least realistic young lesbian relationship ever put to film. It's a strong claim but I still don't get why they are a thing. Also features some burgeoning young desire as lycanthropy thing crammed in. You know, it's just a bad movie. Seriously, why did anyone give these people money? Listen to us eviscerate it because that's all it's good for. Or maybe it's a modern classic? Probably not.

    Gunnar and Einar's relationship is over. One has moved on and the other has secluded himself in a cabin out in the middle of Iceland's beautiful but cold pastures. A drunken phone call brings them back together to deal with the ghosts of their past inside and the ghosts haunting the lava fields outside. Can closure be found? Is the emotional momentum of a relationship worth the toll when it's ripped away? Can anything put the ghosts of your past to rest? Is there any way to heal a Rift (Rökkur)?

Episode 175- Taste the Rainbow

    A coward sent to a post in exile will soon learn of new dietary regimen that grants remarkable powers and incredible health benefits but comes with a heavy price. The inhabitants of Antonia Bird's fort aren't just peckish but totally Ravenous.

Episode 174- Hungry Captive Homicidal Sacrificed Vampire Women In The Celluloid Jungle

Second Time Around

     We kick off October with a four pack of sequels.
    After surviving a night of demon attacking in the possessed bodies of his friends at a lonely cabin in the woods, Ash Williams emerges, triumphant, out into the light of day. Tragically, for him anyway, that's just the first 7 minutes of the first sequel in a franchise that will still be going, in various media, for the next 40 year. Can Ash hold off Evil Dead 2 or will he be dead by dawn?

    What happens when you like puns, have Google to quick search references, and think your cat is WAY cuter than she actually is? You make a film series about her misadventures. Duh. Behold a thing that only Kevin and the most cat obsessed corners of the meowiverse could love. Is there no end from the torment brought by A Meowy Halloween?

    Courtney Bates, preteen survivor without a Southern accent, was so traumatized by the events of the first film that she stopped growing vertically, affected an accent, and started the fourth worst band in film. Which seems like a fair enough way to deal with trauma until the band goes for a weekend getaway and Courtney's demons are made flesh. Behold the wonder of The Driller Killer in Slumber Party Massacre II.

    One of the darlings of the 2000s torture porn era, possibly Eli Roth's magnum opus, and nearly a solid indictment of toxic masculinity. When three friends studying art in Italy decide to hop a train to go clubbing in Prague, they find themselves off the beaten path, and in a very deadly manifestation of class warfare. Beautifully filmed and strongly cast, with at least one stand out scene that has forever burned itself in the minds of genre fans, try not to take a nap during Hostel: Part II.

    All that and Craig ponders how long until he and his dogs start merging into a single being, Kevin and Dave face off over a new streaming offering, and Tyler gleefully does his thing with an innocence that you just can't stay mad at... Join us, won't you?
