B Movie Breakdown

This week on the podcast we discover a new dimension of terror with the next movie in the journey of Jason Voorhees. He survived the machete to the should from Part II and is on the run attempting to heal in a barn near by. But it just some happens that the barn is also part of someones lake house, a lake house that Chris and her friends are visiting for the summer. Because you know when you hear about murders in the area and the killer still on the loose, it’s a good idea to not cancel the trip. Well, you can assume what happens next. Jason doesn’t like people coming to his woods, especially when hurt, so the body count continues. From general store owners and bikers to Chris and her group of silly friends, no one is safe. Oh! And this just so happens to be THE movie where Jason obtains his iconic hockey mask, courtesy of the always loveable Shelly.

A reunion of sorts for out old podcast, Poddy Mouths. This was a drunk filled episode that former podcaster Teddy wanted to do, but got too drunk and passed out before we even recorded. Needless to say Corey, Cody, and Pat had some very interesting drunk conversations.... This item has files of the following types: Archive BitTorrent, Metadata, Ogg Vorbis, PNG, VBR MP3

This week marks the beginning of our descent into the warped and twisted mind of one of the biggest horror icons of all time, Jason Voorhees. And what better way to kick this multi-month tribute off, than with the first movie where he was the central character. We figured starting with Part II was more true to Jason than starting with Part I. The first one has been talked about to death and as we all know Jason is only mentioned and in fact not the killer. In Friday The 13th Part II the body count continues with, a now 33-ish, Jason out for blood after witnessing his mothers death 5 years prior. So when a group of twenty somethings start up a Camp Counselor Training Center nearby Camp Crystal Lake, now deemed Camp Blood, Jason will not stand for these youths disturbing his peace. I mean his little shack in the woods did look pretty damn cozy and peaceful, especially when you’re running around with a bag on your head.

Well this week is more of a mini-sode than a full episode, so we decided to make it 85.5 instead of the full 86. While we had mentioned discussing Critters on our next episode, after some strong consideration we are going to old off on those creepy crawly little guys for now and instead focus on another icon of horror. The Summer is slowly coming to an end and in comes the Fall season. With the Fall season comes our favorite holiday here at the B Movie Breakdown, that holiday happens to be Halloween! So since Halloween is about 10 weeks away we have decided to dedicate the next 9 episodes of the podcast to a true horror icon. An icon who slashed his way to top in the 1980’s and continues to have an impact today. The icon we are going to be paying tribute to is none other than Jason Voorhees. Now instead of starting with the very first Friday The 13th, which has been discussed over and over again throughout the years, we have decided to start with Part II.

On this episode of B Movie Breakdown we discuss, for the first time on the podcast, a film by none other than the kings of B Movies, Troma! It’s a pretty obvious choice when doing a B Movie podcast to just cover any number of their insane movies and we held off from the obvious for far too long. Now instead of going with the other obvious choice of Toxic Avenger, we went with another hero in the Troma universe. That’s right folks this week we discuss the 1990 action comedy Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D. This is yet another one of Lloyd Kaufman’s true masterpieces, but for some reason isn’t talked about as much as Toxie or even Tromeo & Juliet. In this Troma Team Release, Detective Harry Griswald becomes possessed with the spirit of an ancient Kabuki master that gives him the powers to become Kabukiman! This has made him ‘the chosen one’ to do battle with ‘the evil one’. Does Kabukiman prevail in the end?

This week special guest Kailee sits in for Gina & Ryan to discuss the 1985 high school rom-com .Just One Of The Guys. Terry Griffith has it all — looks, popularity, the perfect college boyfriend, and an article that’s a “shoe-in” to win her a summer internship at the local newspaper… or so she thinks. When Terry’s journalism teacher passes her article up in favor of a couple of pieces written by boys, Terry is convinced that sexism is to blame. Determined to win the internship at any cost, Terry goes undercover at a rival high school to resubmit her article… as a boy!

Welcome back to an all new episode of you’re favorite podcast, B Movie Breakdown! Yes, we are back from our short (unannounced) summer hiatus. We didn’t think it would be as long as it was, but hey shit happens. Anyways, we are back with a brand spankin’ new episode for you and do we have a doozie. Actually it’s a doozie we have done in the past, but since it’s summer time we felt it was a MUST to revisit it. The film we speak of is 1983’s summer horror classic, Sleepaway Camp! With the movie getting a recent blu ray re-release from Scream Factory (Shour Factory), we couldn’t have picked a better time to do it. If you’ve never seen this movie before, it is a must see for all horror fans. While it follows and sets many horror summer camp tropes; nothing, and we mean NOTHING, can prepare you for the surprise ending that will sear itself into your memory for the rest of your life.

Yet again we have decided to cover an 80’s cult classic and this time a personal favorite of co-host Corey. Now this came about due to the fact that Gina & Ryan have never seen this movie before and sadly seems to be a common trend. While a lot of people have seen this true gem of the 80’s, there are a lot more people who haven’t. So in an attempt to bring more awareness to it’s greatness we have decided to discuss none other than 1987’s ‘The Monster Squad.’ The film is centered around a group of young kids who form a club that is devoted to monsters. They soon get more than they bargained for when Count Dracula, accompanied by Frankenstein’s Monster, the Wolfman, the Mummy, and the Gillman, is in search of a powerful amulet that will grant them power to rule the world. The Monster Squad are the only ones daring to stand in their way.

We’ve got some good news and some bad news. The good news is your dates are here. The bad news is… they’re dead! This week on a 4th Of July Week edition of B Movie Breakdown, we discuss the 1986 cult classic ‘Night Of the Creeps.’ You may be asking yourself, what does this movie have to do with the ole red, white, and blue? Well, to be honest nothing at all; it just so happens to be the same week. Anyways, the movie is about an alien experiment that crashes to earth in 1959 and infects an innocent young man. They freeze the body, but in the modern day, two geeks pledging a fraternity accidentally thaw the corpse, which proceeds to infect the campus with parasites that transform their hosts into killer zombies. But unlike most zombies these ones are out to eat, they are out to keep spreading their alien slug seed. This movie is streaming on Netlflix, so check it out already!

Believe it or not, but there was a time where John Stamos was attempting to become the next big action hero. At this same time, Gene Simmons was attempting to become an actor. Well clearly both of these attempts didn’t quite work out the way they wanted to, but we did get one insane movie out of it that’s for sure. The movie we speak of is the 1986 action flick Never Too Young To Die. In it Stamos plays Lance Stargrove, the son of murdered secret agent Drew Stargrove, who must take the reigns of his father and stop the evil hermaphrodite Velvet Von Ragnar! Ragnar, played by Gene Simmons, is attempting to combine the local water supply with all of the toxic waste build up by….well maybe if you guys watch you can figure it out because we sure as hell couldn’t. This absurd action flick is in full on YouTube if you feel like taking a walk on the wild side.
