This week we're talking Lewis Teague's giant alligator in the sewers, monster romp classic.

We stop along the way to sprinkle some hate on Scorsese, Tarantino, and Ryan Gosling. We also pitch our Syfy original movies and do a deep dive on synonyms for boobs.

Three questions that will be answered as we discuss Joe Berlinger's Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2:

• Is it fun or just fan-fiction?

One question that we will not and could not answer: 

• What is the Book of Shadows?

Jamie popped around to our pals at Shoot the Hostage to talk about the original Blair Witch Project. Go. Listen.

Robert Englund, Freddy Krueger himself, took the time to make this movie so it would be insane for us to not talk about it. So we do. Here it is.

If you want to hear pontification on Englund's childhood or his boob preference, this is the perfect episode for you.

Join us this week as we desperately try to navigate talking about the Takashi Miike classic, Audition, without saying anything inappropriate.

We almost make it.

We also discuss sex comedies, nazis, Promising Young Woman, and the Japanese breakthrough movies of the late-90s/early-2000s.

Audition was chosen by one of our Patreons - if you want to influence future picks and get access to loads of additional content, join us in The Wasteland Resort now.

Nee naw, nee naw, here comes the punk police and we're investigating Jeremy Saulnier's punks-in-a-bad-situation nightmare, Green Room. 

Hear some of our own tour stories and scary interactions with sketchy folk, learn how to correctly pronounce Guerilla Poubelle, and ask yourself if this truly could take place in the holodeck.

This week, we go hard on the genius of Lance Henriksen, Stan Winston, and classic creature features of the 80s and beyond as we discuss the era-defining, underappreciated joy that is Pumpkinhead.

Along the ride, we also discuss Michale Graves-era Misfits, Insane Clown Posse, and somehow end up plotting out our alternative take on Home Alone 2.

It's Christmas so we're digging into a classic of the festive horror canon, Bob Clark's Black Christmas.

We get into it on holiday horror, phrogging, unreliable narrators and also Goonies.

If you ever wondered which classic 70s punk band represents Black Christmas - this episode is for you.

This week we're talking about Ken Russell's church and state fever dream The Devils. A very silly serious movie about real issues that straddles so many different lines. It's a fun one. We also talk about Elvis, Barbie, and Randy Quaid as Frankenstein.

Three questions we ask ourselves this week: 

1. Is it blasphemous because it's good or is it good because it's blasphemous?
