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, Ryan and Chris dive into the weird, wild world of shot-on-video (SOV henceforth) horror movies. While mostly cheap, trashy, and more, SOV horror films are an important stepping stone not just in the evolution of horror, but in cinema as a whole (the precursor to digital filmmaking), so we're here to dive into the dumpster and pay our respects! First off is the OG SOV horror, 1982's "Boardinghouse." The film is also the only one to be blown up to 35mm and shown theatrically, and the experience is a sight to behold. Then, we move into the first SOV horror film made for the VHS market, 1983's "Sledgehammer." The late David A. Prior would go on to have a successful low-budget career after this, and we know the film is beloved in video dirtbag circles, but it's just too dull for our tastes (or lack thereof). Finally, we swing into the extreme German underground anthology flick, 1992's "The Burning Moon," with some of the most disturbing, yet charming homemade gore effects you will ever see! If you want a great primer on the world of SOV flicks, check out Bleeding Skull's list of the 50 Best SOV Films (which includes the three films we discuss on this episode).
