Movie Dumpster

There's some more voodoo magic cookin' up in the Video Dungeon this week, Dumpster Dwellers! Kwame's up and coming rap group are made an offer they can't refuse by a local gangster, Big Pere. But instead of making a deal, they make a fool of him which puts Kwame's gran in the hospital. Using the power of the dark magic that flows through his blood line, Kwame summons the help of the evil Shadow Man to enact his revenge. Bringing gran's once harmless Ragdoll to life, Shadow Man turns it into a possessed killing machine! The only catch is, for each life the Ragdoll takes in revenge, a life must be taken from the people Kwame loves.

Joining us on the episode are Jarrod and Steve of the Puppet Masters and Castle Freaks Podcast to discuss all things Charles Band, and conjure up some insight on Full Moon's foray into urban horror. Grab your spell book, and kick a funky rhyme, because we are summoning magic of the k1lling kind with RAGDOLL!

Archie Fenton (Robert Rothman) moves into the St. George apartment complex to be closer to his new job, where he receives the modern, fully equipped apartment of his dreams. However, after noting that some of his neighbors are frightened and are subsequently going missing, Archie discovers that the building is actually a giant dragon shaped like a building, and that the dragon is fed leftovers and disrespectful tenants by landlady Madame Angler (Marie Windsor) and a pair of repairmen.

It's Valentine's Day in the Video Dungeon again, Dumpster Dwellers! This week we're heading out to find the secret of Valentine Bluffs. 20 years ago, miner Harry Warden was trapped after an explosion caused by the negligence of his managers. Taking a brutally bloody revenge, Harry donned his mining gear to get even on Valentine's Day. Now, Harry is back again to punish anyone who tries to attend the annual Valentine's Day dance! Strap on that mining helmet, and boil up some hot dogs, because we are about to get our hearts ripped out by My Bloody Valentine!

Theatrical director Andrea Caldwell (Carolyn Seymour) finds herself and her co-workers trapped in the dreams of weaselly stagehand Otto Schrog (Lou Cutell). Able to control reality in his dreams, Otto forces his prisoners put on a poorly-written play in which he is the star, having them cater to his every whim and fulfill his fantasies. Eventually, Andrea and the others formulate a plan to awaken Otto and return to the real world.

Trashing Through Snow comes to a close with the Joe Dante horror-comedy Christmas classic, Gremlins! Despite being a huge success, this flick caught a lot of heat for being marketed as a kid friendly movie and ended up being deemed too scary according to some parents. If you ask us, those folks just need to grow a pair–of mogwai that is! Gremlins is the perfect gateway horror movie, and we'll stand by that! So, remember those three important rules, and don't buy your kids exotic pets because you just might end up with a gremlin in your house!
