Roger Corman strikes back at the MDU with this unreleased superhero flick based on Marvel’s First Family! Originally made just to hold on to the film rights, the movie was collecting dust on a shelf for years until some dumpster dwellers dug it up and slapped it on the web for us all to watch. See the origins of Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and The Thing for the very first time (but definitely not the last)! Enjoy the uncomfortable grooming of a minor by a much older man who can stretch his tallywacker like a hose! Laugh at The Lawnmower Man’s Human Torch spinning like an idiot into a city-destroying laser! And weep with Ben Grimm, because he looks like a FREAK!! When Doctor Doom teams up with Ludban the Leprechaun to take over the world, it’s up to the dysfunctional super-powered family to come together against them and stop Doom’s literal Death Star. Our good friend and resident artist Davey ‘The Scaredy Cat’ DeForne joins us to break down this long-lost comic book adaptation. Connor also compares the ill-fated Justice League of America 1997 pilot to this movie for reasons…or something, listen to his findings within! So kick up that dime store Jurassic Park theme, slip into your blue pajama-looking flight suits, and scream “FLAME ON” at the top of your lungs to spontaneously combust, because it’s Clobberin’ Time™ for Roger Corman’s The Fantastic Four!

Fallen Empire comes to an end with a John Carl Buechler classic and arguably one of Empire’s best films! Harry Potter Jr. and his family (yes, that is his name) move into the same apartment building as the evil troll Torok, who wants to transform his neighbors into fae folk of the forest as a means to merge the realms. With his magic ring, Torok transforms into Harry’s little sister Heather O’Rourke from ‘Poltergeist’ and goes around the complex mutating the other tenants into plants, elves, and Ghoulies™.

Phil Fondacaro delivers some of his best work to date, Sonny Bono and Julia Louis-Dreyfus fall prey to the costume jewelry ring of floral death, and Shelly Shack strikes back from ‘The Stepfather’ so you know there are MDU family matters at stake here. Grab your anti-magic lightning spear, take those old records off the shelf, and don’t forget the chocolate E. Clair, because we’re grabbing a warm blanket of nostalgia and getting cozy with Troll!

Fallen Empire is well underway, and we have a David DeCoteau classic in tow! After a group of horny nerds crash a sorority pledge initiation, they are forced to steal a bowling trophy from a local mall with the aide of the two pledging sisters. They end up releasing a jive-talking, wish-granting imp with a nefarious agenda, bent on killing them one by one! Officially released under Charles Band’s ‘Urban Classics’ label, this flick brings Linnea Quigley, Brinke Stevens, Michelle Bauer, and Hal Havins together under one zany roof! Mr. Lobo of ‘Cinema Insomnia’ joins us to answer the hard questions–Why does the imp sound like Screamin’ Jay Hawkins? Were there no socks available for a simulated sex scene? Who’s mall is this exactly and why don’t they pay George Flower enough to buy a new hearing aid? Put your bowling shoes on, and make sure to choose your wishes carefully, because we are about to nail this 7-10 split with Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama!
