We’re a week late for Memorial Day, but better late than never. We thought that we would honor our fallen veterans by celebrating ridiculously over-the-top violence! And no movie does it quite like this one.

Commando

Most will recall this film from the 80s, because it was actually…

Seeing as it’s around that time of year, we thought it appropriate that we cover a film about one of the most important stages of a young person’s life. But since 1983′s Losin’ It wasn’t available, we figured we would cover 1981′s…Graduation Day! I should point out that nobody in my home town ever made the kind of event... Read the rest

Then something happens that proves us horribly, terribly wrong…like watching Swamp Thing. Yes, it still stars Dick Durok and Adrienne Barbeau. But lets just say that my standards for great cinema have risen slightly since … Continue reading Treatment 24 -Swamp Thing →

This film settles it, I think. It may be the final proof that 80s movies were truly the height of schlock cinema, probably a by-product of the invention of video. So, if you were a faithful Schlock Treatment listener, and watched this film on our say-so…well, we’re sorry. But remember, this is for your own … Continue reading Treatment 23- Mutant Hunt →

Bert I. Gordon, a.k.a Mr. Big, hits Schlock Treatment this week. And he hits us where it hurts! Right in the middle of our dairy section! Well, I guess that’s more towards the end of the film. Anyway, before America’s dairy products are turned into ghoulish potions that will make our kids into hulking giants, … Continue reading Treatment 22- Food of the Gods →

We’re back on schedule with our Treatments, dear patients! Despite having just released Hercules Against Karate 4 days ago, here is the Treatment for the one and only… KRULL!! This is a fantastic film, and one we’re reticent to call “schlock.” Still, there are those who might look at it and think it has schlock … Continue reading Treatment 21 -Krull →

We’re back after a minor hiatus! There was some difficulty in my getting access to the internets, what with my recent move and all. So, apologies for that.

And we’re starting the improvements with this episode by having me (Marc) talk … Continue reading Treatment 20 -Hercules Against Karate →
