It's cult movie time again, and this time we are looking at one of the best horror comedies of recent years - What We Do in the Shadows a mockumentary created by Taika Waititi and Jermaine Clement exploring the shows world of the undead in present day New Zealand!

In the fifth of our stay in, stay safe comedy specials, strange omens and dark forces are abroad in the kingdom of The Black Adder, and the dreaded Witchsmeller Pursuivant cometh! Folk horror vibes, bloody milk and dire warnings about the fruit of the carrot tree ensue... Plus watch out for a cameo from Satan himself!

We take a trip back to 1997 for to discover who is protecting the Earth from the scum of the Universe! Yes, it's that classic pairing of Tommy Lee Wallace and Will Smith in Barry Sonnenfeld's smash hit SF comedy Men in Black!

In the fourth of our stay in, stay safe comedy specials, we voyage back in time to watch The Black Adder - Born to be King! It's St. Leonard's Day and cunning plans and woeful variety acts ensue...

It's crap film time again, and this time we have gone for one of the worst movies of all-time - Robot Monster from 1953! Shot in four days and in 3D, see an incredible alien invader, the Ro-Man - which looks suspiciously like a gorilla in a space helmet - fart about with a bubble machine while pestering the last surviving humans on earth!

As we enjoyed it so much last time, we pay tribute again to the late great Tim Brooke-Taylor, with another two of our favourite episodes of classic 1970s comedy series, The Goodies! In this episode we are watching are Kung Fu Capers from Series 7 and Saturday Night Grease from Series 8!

We are back in cult film territory and back to the films of Tim Burton too - this time for his 1990s SF comedy Mars Attacks! Ack! Ack! Ack!

In the third of our stay in, stay safe comedy specials, we voyage back in time to watch The Black Adder - The Archbishop! Has the King finally found a use for his other son... you know, the slimy one?

Once again we are going back to the 1980s for a classic movie! This time is the celebrated horror comedy Beetlejuice, directed by Tim Burton and starring Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder!

As a tribute to the late great Tim Brooke-Taylor, we celebrate his life and works with a rewatch of two of our favourite episodes of classic 1970s comedy series, The Goodies. The episodes we are watching are Lighthouse Keeping Loonies and the awarding winning Kitten Kong!
