Rounding out the Darkman trilogy is Darkman III: Die Darkman Die, a movie that honestly should have been the second film of the 3 instead of the last. Saving Durant’s return for the final movie would have been a much better reveal and this movie would have provided some insight as to what Darkman was up to in between II and III. Regardless, this is yet another great entry in to the Darkman series, proving once again how good the concept and movies really are. If you haven’t seen any of the Darkman films, we highly recommend you go check them out.

How does one survive a helicopter crash in which the helicopter smashes into the side of a bridge? What antics has Darkman been up to in the past 4 years? And how the hell does Darkman speak so well without having any lips?!? We attempt to answer these questions and more as we discuss Darkman II: The Return Of Durant. *Spoiler Warning* During a tangent, for those who have yet to see it, we give out some slight spoilers for Thor: Ragnarok; it is mentioned before it happens.

Before superhero movies reigned supreme at the box office, they were few and far between. Most are either fondly remembered or the butt of a joke, but one definitely remains forgotten…until now. That forgotten film happens to be Sam Raimi’s Darkman starring Liam Neeson and Frances McDormand. An original and out of control superhero film with that Sam Rami flair, deserving of more attention.

For whatever reason, ever since Hellbound: Hellraiser II, no one knows how to get this series right. Some entries in this series present good ideas, but with poor execution and no true understanding of the cenobites and the puzzlebox. Hellraiser: Judgment is no exception to this rule. It gives us a great new cenobite named The Auditor and introduces the Archangel Jophiel into the mix as well, but overall is just a boring crime thriller with a lackluster twist at the end. Maybe one day somebody will get Hellraiser right, but until then we will have to deal with these direct to video let downs.

Get ready for sex, babes and rock ‘n roll with another listener requested film this week, as well as the conclusion of the very very small streak of special guests while Nick is off working on a super secret special project. In this episode, Corey is joined by frequent guest Cody to discuss the 1990 film Ghoul School. When two “thugs” in search of hidden treasure accidentally unleash a chemical into the school’s water supply, everyone who comes into contact with it turns into flesh-eating ghouls!

Yet another listener requested film this week and also the start of a very very small streak of special guests while Nick is off working on a super secret special project. In this episode, Corey is joined by his lovely wife Kailee to discuss the 2007 horror film Dead Silence directed by James Wan. Beware the stare of Mary Shaw. She had no children only dolls. And if you see her in your dreams, be sure you never, ever scream.

We totally forgot that in this inspiring, action-packed story of a rag-tag team of young soccer players are some serious issues; including illegals and dead beat dads. But those hurdles won’t get in the way of The Big Green! With the help of their new teacher and the local sheriff, this soccer team restores their small town’s former glory when they go all-out and beat the odds of winning the state championship.

If The Suckling taught us one thing, it’s that humans are the real monsters. We are pretty sure while teaching us that, it tried really hard to also push a pro-life agenda in the midst of a mediocre horror movie. Set in a whorehouse / make-shift abortion clinic; a young woman reluctantly gets an abortion, only to have her aborted fetus become mutated and attack her, her boyfriend, and everyone else at the “clinic”.
