Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed "good," "bad," or "what!?" within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor's filmography, and more!

This week, Chris and Ryan dive into alien assimilation films; most specifically of the "slug" variety, and even more specifically, all three films more or less have the same skeleton plot. We start with 2006's "Slither," James Gunn's goopy, gross-out horror-comedy that cemented early on that he has a skill for treating something like a complete lark and then disarming you with the human element. Then, Chris and Ryan have a slight disagreement about the placement of the next two films. Listen to the episode to find out, but the next films in question are cult favorites "The Faculty" - the Robert Rodriguez/Kevin WIlliamson joint from 1998 that homages '50s B-Movies while having that "hip" postmodern feel - and "Night of the Creeps," Fred Dekker's beloved 1986 oddity that too homages '50s B-Movies, albeit much more directly.
