Junk Food Dinner

JFD is back to heat up your summer even more as we kick off July with a variety of Kaiju action. That's right, it's Kai-Ju-ly! Up first, one of the most famous giant monster battles of all time, Destroy All Monsters from 1968 features a veritable who's who of Kaiju including; Godzilla, Rodan, Anguirus, Gorosaurus, Mothra, Minilla, Manda, Kumonga, Baragon, Varan and King Ghidorah! Then, Japan's other favorite giant monster Gamera returns after a 15-year hiatus in 1995's Gamera: Guardian of the Universe, where he must save Tokyo from an invading plague of giant pterodactyls with the help of Steven Seagal's daughter. And finally, a kappa (a turtle-like goblin from Japanese folklore) grows to enormous size from an atomic blast to do battle with another giant monster in the kaiju parody Death Kappa from 2010. All this plus video games where you do work, another in-depth discussion on retroactive censorship, an update on the cats in Sean's backyard, action figure chat, this week's most notable blu-rays and so much more!

Hide your wife, it's another hot episode of Junk Food Dinner as we look at 3 movies picked by our Patreon friends! First, a crazed killer is scouring the Chinese countryside looking for fresh brains in the 1980s-ish horror film The Pituitary Hunter. Next, Andy Garcia is on the trail of bad cop Richard Gere, but who will fuck whose wife first in "Internal Affairs." Finally, a documentary film crew follows the exploits of a seemingly deranged conspiracy theorist -- but what if he's right? In "The Conspiracy." All this plus Bill & Ted chat, Alan Adamson, Adam Alanson, junk mails, nerd news, Kyle from Kentucky, skipping Ghoul summer this year?, Joe Bob chat, Now & Laters Fu, Nice Voicemails Fu and 3 boobs. 4 stars. JFD says check it out. Donloyd Here.

Oh, no! A 32-hour podcast?? How is this even possible? WHY is this even possible? Even moreso than ever before, this is exactly what nobody ever asked for! So, it's come to this: a mid-week celebration of our Junk Food Junkies in the only sort of format that at least one of seems capable of producing: an over-long, rambling project cobbled together from tiny bits of history. That's right: carefully curated for you (and only you) to listen to: every single junkmail left for the show (several unaired) for the past ten years, carefully set to the beat of some of your favorite tunes. Sit back in your lawn chair, open up a Diet Pepsi, and crank up the volume of your favorite podcast listeners in those earphones until the neighbor's quarantine-breaking pool-party is nearly inaudible. Or just delete this weird audio artifact forever and never listen to it! Direct Donloyd Got a movie suggestion for the show, or better yet an opinion on next week's movies?

Terrifying times like these require everyone to stand up against oppression and do their part. But eventually, you're going to need some sort of distraction from all of the good we hope you're doing. So here's some meaningless chatter about three weird movies for y'all. Up first! George Lam and Andy Lau feature in this 1982 Chinese New Wave meditation on the end of the Vietnam War, from the perspective of a Japanese photojournalist visiting Vietnam's "New Economic Zones." A semi-ghoulish pan-asian post-war drama, Boat People's yet to see an United States home video release, but maybe you'll wanna see it on YouTube? Next up! We KNOW that y'all have seen Elvira: Mistress of the Dark (1988! It's her first movie, the one where she parties with a bunch of Groundlings in Fallwell, MA. Not the later one with the castle or whatever that was. This is the good stuff. Finally! It's a third film: Just One of the Girls (1993), a Canadian gender-swapped rehashing of Just One of the Guys (from 8 years prior), but with a little bit less morality and a lot more Corey Haim. Plus boobs. All this plus thoughts on the West Wing (TV Series), thoughts on the West Wing (the actual one), institutionalized insensitivities, oddly prescient recent viewings, we name names, exotic & fun things in the workplace, the polling results for the most important (JFD Audio Commentary) voting going on this week, more of Kevin's Sex Crimes on parade, our weekly news plus Blu-ray Picks and even more!

We're back with more short movies for short people! First, it's deja vu as we review the 1933 stop motion flick "The Mascot." Next, we're put the in the POV of someone who's jumping in the anime short "Jumping." Finally, the Astron 6 guys hit the beach in search of a party in "Cool Guys." All this plus Nerd News, DVDs, Trackdown chat, junk mails, grampa comments and so much more. Donloyd Here

Junk Food Dinner's back to help you get through another week of quarantine! This week we have three very strange movies picked by the lunatics that are our Dom DeLuise Patreon donors! Up first, Roger Corman's New World Pictures serves up a rip-off of Alien that aims to be gorier and sleazier than it's source material with Galaxy of Terror from 1981, featuring an all-star cast of b-movie actors, including; Robert Englund, Ray Walston, Sid Haig, Erin Moran, Zalman King, Grace Zabriskie and Edward Albert. Then, Armand Assante plays hard-boiled cop Mike Hammer in an 80's-upped remake of a 1950's noir flick in which while investigating the death of his friend, he stumbles upon a sex clinic run by Barbara Carrera that's more escort service than medical practice and it has criminal ties that go all the way to the top in I, The Jury from 1982. And finally, Takashi Miike brings us a story about a four-generation family that despite their own personal issues, band together to open a bed & breakfast on the Japanese mountainside. However, their customers keep dying in odd ways, but instead of calling the cops, the family hides the bodies as not to hurt their already struggling business. Oh yeah, there's also claymation and musical numbers sprinkled throughout in the very weird The Happiness of the Katakuris from 2001. All this plus hot mask fashions, a call from The Fallen One, updates from the drive-in, film festivals coming to your house, this week's goofiest blu-rays and so much more!

What do America, Japan and Korea have in common (outside of baseball, and coronavirus, both expicitly not discussed on this episode)? Your JFD hosts hope to find a little cross-cultural unity this week in the world of animated features, as we kick off our annual celebration of animation: Ani-May! Up first! You remember Ralph Bakshi, dude who brought us weird stuff like HEAVY TRAFFIC and COONSKIN and WIZARDS? He's back at it again, with it his uniquely bizarre blend of post-hippie, underground-comix-y, animation, this time focused on the history of a nation and it's music, in 1981's American Pop! And: It's got more dishes than you could shake a washrag at. Next up! Y'all ever seen that Hayao Miyazaki flick Princess Mononoke (1997)? You know, the Studio Ghibli thing that Disney/Miramax put in theaters over here. Your college girlfriend had the poster in her bedroom. No? That's weird. Well, we review it. It's got tentacle-boars. Finally! It's a third film: Seoul Station (2016), a Korean zombie animated movie Parker picked because he likes TRAIN TO BUSAN from the same director. Will the zombies dance in unison to a sexy beat? All this plus cartoon chats, Wink Martindale chats, background Keppi, an audio encounter with a maniac, some Sad Nerd News, a plea for more Roys, who are the real Quibis?, an issue with echoes, Kevin reveals a shocking hot take on a beloved era of our youth, some sneezing behind closed doors, our weekly news plus Blu-ray Picks and even more!

We're back with three movies to help you social distance. First, Pam Grier and Sid Haig star in the Jack Hill women-in-prison flick, "The Big Doll House."
