Box Office Pulp

Godzilla! Hans and Franz! Super suits in tin cans! Arnold Schwarzenegger and Weiner! These are all connected in a logical manner, and Box Office Pulp is here to do the dirty work of connecting the dots in this special episode all about notorious Hollywood films that ALMOST happened. Did we dodge a spray of bullets? Did we miss a series of miracles? Listen in and decide for yourself.

Let Box Office Pulp wager you, let us make you a bet: Listening to this episode will not be a regret. A rumbling sound and three sharp knocks, that's when you know we're recording. The themes in a certain Australian horror film is what we are exploring. You see, if it's in a word, or it's in a look, you can't stop us from talking about THE BABADOOK.

The BOP Crew gazes into it's crystal ball (or a handy-dandy online list) at the films coming soon to a theater near you. From Ant-Men, to old man robots, to young man robots, to dinosaurs, lands of tomorrow, and being too fast to be truly furious -- Box Office Pulp leaves no celluloid unturned in this preview of Summer 2015!

From the wolves of the Alaskan wilderness to the depths of raunchy poetry, the BOP crew must dig deep to survive Joe Carnahan's THE GREY. Ride the log, pretend depression isn't lurking around every corner, ignore all the advice Liam Neeson gives, and look out for the boogens. It's Box Office Pulp!

What lurks behind this seemingly normal german apartment window? Allow a still shell-shocked Mike to spin a tale of love, low budgets, and the depths of sexual depravity for you and the rest of the BOP Crew. Even though NEKROMANTIK pulls back the satin sheets from it's sexy, sexy grave and invites you into it's crisp blu-ray re-release -- do not! Don't make the same mistake I did! Run! Run! RUN! And instead, run right into this installment of the spine-tingling bastion of the ghastly... TALES FROM THE BOP!

All the way from the back of the train, the BOP crew fights its way to your headphones to discuss director Bong Joon-ho's sci-fi/action/baby eating/class warfare experience SNOWPIERCER. Watch as the Boppers attempt to bring serious analysis into the podcast and peer into the dark corners of IMDb only to realize the darkness is peering back. Fairy tale, allegory, fable logic... who really cares? It's Box Office Pulp.

Mike, James, and Cody gather to discuss the Studio Ghibli's animated classic Princess Mononoke. With eyes unclouded, they attempt to discuss the Miyazaki masterpiece without falling into the pitfalls of hate. Or the dark catacombs of IMDb. Or tangents about C.H.U.D. Their mission is hopeless, but at least they get to go out remembering that time when Keith David voiced a giant, pissed-off boar god. What more could they ask for?

Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may get stuck watching WOLFEN when the VHS player blooms and the autumn moon is bright. On this new BOP segment, Cody recounts his harrowing encounter with the kinda-sorta werewolf movie WOLFEN to the rest of the crew, preventing them from a grizzly fate of actually having to watch this train wreck of a movie for themselves. It’s a descent into hell, horror, time-warping runtimes, and a nude Edward James Olmos in the very first TALES FROM THE BOP!

The BOP crew shambles out of the grave this Halloween for the sweetest candy of all: BRAINS. Also, zombie movies. But we're mostly here for the brains. So, shamble along as we debate the merits of slow versus fast rotters, magic versus virus-infected living dead, and werewolf sex versus mummy sex. Only the most crucial topics of the season in this special BOP of the Dead!

Just in time to celebrate the holiest of fake holidays, Big-Ass Pumpkin Day, here comes the Box Office Pulp episode on Stan Winston's Pumpkinhead. Relive all your favorite 80s and southern stereotypes with he BOP crew as we collectively scratch our heads over this odd-ball monster flick. Err... grim fairy tale.
