Death By Video

We're back with a dip in to the deep end of 1980s horror films! It's Scott Spiegel's INTRUDER! We discuss Spiegel's adventures in Hollywood involving some of the biggest filmmakers in history and his expert direction of grocery store employees being terrorized by the titular Intruder!

We're baaaaaaaaaack! After an extended hiatus we return with the heavy hitter that is George Romero's Day of the Dead!!! We discuss the circumstances under which the film was made, the cast's connections to previous Living Dead films, and the hurdles that horror filmmakers in the 1980s had to jump over to get their films seen!

In honour of Albert Pyun's recent birthday we decided to take a trip to Eastern Europe for his Bratislava odyssey: Crazy Six! Featuring a star studded cast featuring Rob Lowe, Ivana Milicevic, Ice-T, Mario Van Peebles, and Burt Freaking Reynolds! Will Rob Lowe & Co be able to defeat Ice-T's gang of drug smuggling nuclear arms dealers, while simultaneously trying to kick a meth habit? Tune in to find out!!!

We're back with the hip-hop not-so-classic film BELLY!!! Starring Nad & DMX as low level criminals who attempt to work their way up, and work out the demons inside them. There's a whole lot of stuff going on and very little of it makes sense! But it definitely looks cooler than cool and the soundtrack is great!!!

We're back with a dive into the abyss of 1980s genre cinema with our episode on SURF NAZIS MUST DIE!!! Join Phil, Kit & Graham as they discuss the plot (or lack there of) and how one gang of goose-stepping surfers take over the beach only to be thwarted by an unexpected foe! They also discuss some of the films they've been watching during this current period of quarantine and how they think Surf Nazis Must Die could make an incredible remake today!

We're back! We're quarantined! And we're still watching insane movies! Listen in as the guys watch Enzo G. Castellari's swan song to the spaghetti western genre with the psychedelic freakout: KEOMA! Starring the legendary Franco Nero, along with Woody Strode and Olga Karlatos! There's shootouts! There's flashbacks! There's plague mines! There's an attempt at a socialist uprising! There's singing! So much singing! All this and more in Death By Video Episode 79: KEOMA!!!

We're back with an episode dedicated to the oft-overlooked sci-fi film Trancers! It stars Tim Thomerson as Jack Deth; a Trancer Hunter from the year 2247, sent back in time to 1985 to stop the creator of the trancers from killing the ancestors of the City of Angels justice council. Along the way he falls in love with 1980s punk rocker Helen Hunt! We sincerely hope that everyone is safe and healthy right now and that our silly podcast can serve as a distraction from the seriousness in the world at this time.

We're back with our take on Re-Animator! Our intrepid hosts have to record remotely due to the current goings on in the world, but that doesn't stop them from digging the groovy grave robbing exploits of Herbert West in Stuart Gordon's Re-Animator! They also discuss the late Stuart Gordon's career as a filmmaker, as a theatre director, and his impact on cinema, literature, and stage production!

Phil, Kit & Graham are back to discuss the 1990s surf-tastic masterpiece POINT BREAK!!! (not the 2015 remake) They discuss the radness this movie exudes and marvel at Keanu Reeve's command of the English language. They discuss the oeuvre of director Kathryn Bigelow, and the insanity that is Patrick Swayze doing all of his own skydiving stunts! Plus Gary Busey just annihilating the scenery as a drunk-uncle/loose cannon FBI agent!!! All this and more in the latest episode of Death By Video!!!!!

Graham & Kit take a trip to the cinema to check out this weekend's hit smash: the surprisingly charming Sonic The Hedgehog!!!
