  • Episode 119: John Carpenter's Vampires

    Join Jim and John as the sink their teeth into (I did it, I made the dumb, obvious joke) one of John Carpenter's less appreciated, but still fun flicks: Vampires. This Western/Horror hybrid follows Jack Crow (James Woods) and his band of vampire hunters sponsored by the Catholic church on their crusade of eliminating "goons" or vampires from the face of the earth. The crew bites off more than they can chew (I did it again, folks!) when they run afoul of a particularly powerful master vampire; Valek. John and Jim laud this silly but awesome relic from the past while also reminiscing about a bygone error of similarly silly movies. After the two run through the movie they discuss their excitement about HBO's upcoming series, It: Welcome to Derry. Spoiler alerts out there to any folks that haven't ready the Stephen King penned masterpiece. So, sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy these fools talking about movies.

A precursor to Battle Royale and The Hunger Games, The Long Walk follows a group of kids participating in a deadly competition where there's only one winner. Kristina and John dig into how they could love such a movie that's so grim.

  • Episode 117: Superman

    John and Jim are back to discuss James Gunn's Superman! The two touch on the state of the DC films over the past few years and also the excitement of Gunn-led DCU. And while the Internet doesn't require two more dudes debating Zach Snyder's take on The Man of Steel vs. James Gunn, the Cold Ones guys decided to pitch in their thoughts on the matter here and there. It's a bit of a loopier episode that almost never got off the ground after an atrocious intro by John (apologies everyone!), but the guys get to some fun discussion on one of the most recognizable superheroes we have. Sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy.

  • Episode 116: Thinner

    G and John take a big 'ol bite out of Thinner, written under King's pseudonym Richard Bachman. What happens when you have an egotistical lawyer, an old man with a grudge, and a cartoony gangster? Well perhaps King's best book written under the Bachman pen name. Throw in some disturbing curses, a slingshot wielding girl, and a cursed pie... yep that's right, a cursed pie, then you have some schlock that would make the Crypt Keeper giggle with glee. Sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy.

  • Episode 114: The Eyes of the Dragon

    G and John have a fun chat about one of King's very few forays into the fantasy genre. The two are very happy to see an old friend return; the magician with the smile of a dead man, the man with many monikers that loves to bring chaos in his wake, whether it's in mid-world, a plagued alternate version of America, or in this case an ancient kingdom called Delain. Yes, that's right Randall Flagg is back in one of King's underrated tales. Sit back, grab a flagon of ale, and enjoy this chat.

  • Episode 113: Surviving - Shaun of The Dead

    What's this, The Cold Ones gang repeating themselves? Not quite, guys. While we covered Edgar Wright's classic zombie movie a few years ago, Jim and John are tackling the flick in a different way today: Could we survive the movie? To spoil stuff, na, we wouldn't make it - but you should still tune in to see how we think we'd die! Mixed in are some musings on burgers and bitching about Max rebranding for their third time in like 5 years. Sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy
