Apocalypse Video

Can you feel it, folks? Summer Movie season is right around the corner and that can only mean one thing – the return of Hot Dave’s Summer Film Fest!!! But after enduring weeks of bitterly freezing indie dramas in Stone Cold Ryan’s Winter Film Fest Federation, some of us at the store have forgotten what it feels like to feel the warm breeze of an explosion or the refreshingly cool splatter of a well executed blood squib. But never fear, dear listeners, your trusty video store manager Dave has just the cure for those winter blues. And let’s just say…it’s open season on all suck-heads.

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me are fellow cinephiles and vampire familiars Mike, Jackie, and Nick “Immortan Hoof”.

Listen as we discuss the real movie that rejuvenated the comic book genre (that’s right, suck it X-Men! You too, Spidey!); we wonder if Deacon Frost is the most goth villain of all time; and finally, we’ll talk bafflingly terrible alternate TV edits and the importance of a good ending.

“We’re talking about evil on two legs…”

Ok, Kiddies! It’s time to ditch those Silver Shamrock masks and pick up an all white William Shatner classic at your local hardware store, because Michael Myers is back!

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me again as we down a few beers and form a drunken posse to roam the night is fellow horror fan Nick “Immortan Hoof”.

Topics of discussion in this episode include Michael’s ever increasing zombie-like stature; we wonder if Loomis inadvertently created the Boogeyman from his own insanity; and finally, we rate the Halloween franchise thus far…by using the McDonald’s Value Menu as a scale.

Captain’s Log: Stardate 47304.2

With all of the recent talk of Star Trek: Picard’s series finale(?), we at the Apocalypse Video Trek Cast thought what better time than now to visit one of Season 7’s steamiest “Will They / Won’t They?” episodes of the Next Generation: Attached. An episode that features mind reading, innuendo, and no doubt ignited a firestorm of fanfiction across the galaxy…

I’m your Host and Captain, Dave, and joining me again are fellow Trekkies Mike and Jackie.

Topics of discussion in this assignment include the writers finally putting a button on Picard and Beverly’s relationship (at least until Picard: Season 3); we discuss the insane prospect of reading someone’s thoughts and how often it would involve horniness; and finally, we discuss the replicator and how the Federation deals with food waste.

Stone Cold Ryan’s Winter Film Fest Federation concludes with Kevin Smith’s return to the Quick Stop in Clerks III.

I’m your host, Stone Cold Ryan, and joining me as we grapple with our complicated feelings about our childhood hero are fellow clerks Dave, Mike, and Special Guest, Cody.

In this episode we’ll talk about our history with the View Askewniverse and everyone’s favorite indie darling, Kevin Smith; we’ll break down how each of us felt about that wild ending; and finally, we’ll discuss where we think Kevin can go from here - and whether or not we’ll want to follow.

That’ll do it for the first ever Stone Cold Ryan’s Winter Film Fest Federation. Maybe next year we’ll actually do this thing in Winter and not Spring…

I’m your host, Stone Cold Ryan, and joining me as we make sure not to magnetize our entire VHS collection are fellow film fans Dave and Michael!

In this episode we’ll discuss our time at Hollywood Video during the great home media shift of the late 2000s; we’ll break down Michel Gondry’s varied career path from music videos to beloved classics like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; and finally, Dave and I will try to explain to Michael the difference between improv and sketch comedy.

I’m your host, Stone Cold Ryan, and joining me as we celebrate the best of 90s independent cinema are fellow film fans Dave, Jackie, and Michael!

In this episode we’ll ask why The Watermelon Woman isn’t held in the same regard as it’s indie contemporaries like Clerks; we’ll also discuss the conservative morons of 1996 and their argument that the film is “porn”; and finally, we’ll try to break down exactly what the hell the BOB System is all about.

Stone Cold Ryan’s Winter Film Fest Federation will continue with Be Kind, Rewind.

The time of Dave has ended. Long live the Reign of Stone Cold Ryan! (at least until Summer rolls along…)

That’s right, film fans! You may have thought Winter was over, but there’s a scrappy mutant creature named FunksyStony Todd who says otherwise! And if he crawls out of his hole and sees that Navy Seals is still checked out, then we’ve got 4 more weeks of Winter and a Film Fest Federation to organize, brother!!!

I’m your host, Stone Cold Ryan, and joining me as we celebrate the best of 90s independent cinema are fellow film fans Dave, Jackie, and Michael!

For our first entry in Stone Cold Ryan’s Winter Film Fest Federation, we’ve got none other than Nicole Holofcener’s 1996 indie dramedy Walking and Talking: a film that features an awesome looking video store, an awkward moment with a mole, and stars none other than Lydia Tar’s father himself, Todd Field!

Stone Cold Ryan’s Winter Film Fest Federation will continue with The Watermelon Woman.

“I do love a good joke…a joke on the children!”

It’s time kiddies, put on your masks…grab a six pack and avoid your ex-wife…and be sure to watch out for misfires – it’s Halloween III: Season of the Witch!

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me again as we put on our Silver Shamrock masks and prepare to have bugs come out of our mouths is fellow horror fan Nick “Immortan Hoof”.

Topics of discussion in this episode include one of the most inexplicable romantic relationships ever to be seen in Horror: we try to understand the sheer animal magnetism (apparently…) of Tom Atkins; and finally, we try to calculate exactly how many kid deaths are needed to necessitate a good sacrifice to Samhain?
