Death By Video

Hey! You're favourite slow to update podcast is back with a Halloween Special on the classic Japanese shocker: EVIL DEAD TRAP! The spooky season is in full bloom so we traveled back to the old abandoned video store only to find it torn down so we found an even older video store to hang out in and discuss all the frights and scares in Evil Dead Trap!

After a bit of a break we are back with an episode on the Canadian cyberpunk not so classic: Johnny Mnemonic! Listen in as we point out the local Toronto landmarks that appear in this film set in New Jersey, USA! Hear as we describe the terrifying vision of the future technology known as... the internet! All this and our terrible Keanu impressions in this episode of Death By Video!

It's the real Bruce Lee! Finally! We dive into the film he wrote, directed, choreographed and starred in! It's a fish out of water tale as Bruce Lee travels to Rome to take down the Mafia that's shaking down some Chinese restaurants! Fists and feet fly as we discuss Bruce Lee's lesser known magnum opus! This also marks the first appearance on our show of 7 time world karate champion Chuck Norris! (In the movie, not as a guest).

We bring our Bruceploitation series to a close with The Dragon Lives Again aka Bruce Lee Goes to Hell! Listen in as we dissect the distastefulness of film producers not only depicting Bruce Lee's real death, but then having the character of "Bruce Lee" go to hell where he has to team up with Popeye, Kwai Chang Kaine, and the One-Armed Swordsman to face off against the forces of evil: Zatoichi, James Bond, The Exorcist, The Godfather, Emmanuelle, Clint Eastwood and Dracula! All this and more on Death By Video Episode Ninety-Six!

Hey what's better than Bruce Lee? Three Bruce Lees!!!! Well... in theory. Phil, Kit & Graham are back to discuss one of the most distasteful subgenres of films: Bruceploitation! We dive into the film that tells the tale of what happens when you clone the recently deceased Bruce Lee! Spoiler alert: not a whole lot. Listen in as we discuss which Bruce is better: Bruce Lee 1, Bruce Lee 2, or Bruce Lee 3!!!

Whooo! It's our most divisive episode! We tackle the wild, wacky, and wickedly fun movie: Psycho Ape! Listen in as Phil and Kit try and tear down the mighty Psycho Ape, while Graham just enjoys the chaotic/kinetic energy of the film and defends it valiantly!

We're back with a dive into the revenge fueled Spaghetti Western: Django The Bastard! Listen in as we discuss the Django westerns produced in Italy that had nothing to do with the original Django! Hear us describe the ghostly manner in which Django stalks the men who wronged him... from beyond the grave!

We're (finally) back! And we're spreading the good word about Night of 1000 Cats! It's the tale as old as time about a man, his helicopter, his 1000 cats, and the people he feeds to said 1000 cats! Listen in as Phil, Kit & Graham discuss the film that could best be described as a hypnotic lava lamp, soundtracked by the smoothest music this side of Loggins and Messina!

Hey! The guys get together for an informal chat about all the movies they've been watching lately! Films discussed: Trash Humpers (sigh), Den of Thieves (double sigh), Psycho Goreman (!), The Irishman, Venom, Vampire's Kiss, Affliction, Miami Vice, Hard Core Logo, The Black Cat, The Brady Bunch Movie, Wes Craven's Shocker, Burn After Reading, Mission Impossible 2, De Palma, Easy Riders Raging Bulls, and the AGFA Horror Trailer Show!

We're back with a trip to the land down under for a rollicking good time with BMX Bandits. Make yourself a Vegemite sandwich, open up a can of Fosters, and kick back as we take you through this tale of bank robberies, walkie talkies, waterslides, and BMX Bikes!
