Ancient daggers, inexplicable dream logic and the scariest sound of all — Shane's impression of a burping crow. Reel Rap stands divided on this 1973 experimental blaxploitation vampire film and reflects on a letter from director Bill Gunn to white critics about how black art is received by mainstream media.

A comedy duo straight out of William Penn’s backyard, Bennett Glace, an adult Disney fan, and Shane Pfender, an ordained minister, have for years lent a critical eye to Hollywood’s most tedious auteurs. They are a comedy duo for film snobs and slobs alike. Exhausted by the current uninspired landscape of film criticism, the two work to find a new language with which to understand and interact with the films they cover on their inimitable podcast, Reel Rap.

Special guest Mike Daley returns to help Jason and Jim sift through Lawrence Kasden's adaptation of a novel Stephen King wrote in cursive while recovering from a near-fatal car accident in 1999.

Join a filmmaker (and sometimes film teacher) and a film teacher (and sometimes filmmaker) as they venture into the dark heart of their own befuddled relationship to culture, the youth, the internet, friendship, love, hate, time, space and, of course: *m*o*v*i*e*s*. Come hear what we see.

Stephen's attempt to take back his novel from Stanley Kubrick, this miniseries doesn't really work at all because it is a cranky argument instead of a movie, but it is an interesting argument to talk about for a minute. The boys discuss good actors being ill-used and rain down spite upon Mick Garris.

Clearly sleep-deprived and falling apart at their basal cortices, Jason and Jim try to harness a wobbling conversation in the direction of 'The Night Flier,' but mostly talk about how much they love Miguel Ferrer. Also they put out a call for knowledge regarding the names of specific pratfalls.

A crossover episode with Reel Rap host Shane Pfender ends the only way it possibly could — in a podcast feud.

A heavy-set man is cursed to grow forever thinner after he runs over a Gypsy man's daughter. Cinesthesia hosts Jason and Jim trek through Richard Bachman's horny portrayal of cosmic revenge in what Jason calls the King film that comes closest to encapsulating the feeling of reading a trashy paperback. Reel Rap host Shane Pfender guest stars and deems Jason and Jim's eyeballs are unhealthy after 24 days of Stephen King films.

Ted Levine fights his own jacket, Jim auctions off his eyeballs and Jason introduces his son to "spooky skulls." Episode 23 of Hell to the King covers the misunderstood Tobe Hooper production of The Mangler (1995), a movie that guest star Victoria Quamme Rhoden returns to for the first time since the film inspired an early childhood trauma.

A whole lotta mackerel snappin' goin' on...

Hell to the King vaults across Jason's concentric circles and into the realm where all the rules are thrown out. Logan Taylor guests on this episode about Needful Things, a Stephen King adaptation that plays like a more murderous It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. Also, everyone involved swoons over Max von Sydow.

Jim thinks Jason is mad at him for forcing him to watch this miniseries. Cinesthesia has decided 'The Tommyknockers' has precisely 10 good moments in a miniseries that is all too long. Lipstick vaporizers, charming machines and ancient architecture in the woods provide bright spots in a series that struggles to stretch itself to three hours.

George A. Romero returns to the Stephen King universe after Creepshow to deliver another hidden gem. Between the film being generally good with no major surprises and Jason and Jim's bedraggled brains manifesting in mildness, they paw through this discussion like two well-behaved opossums hoping to get to the other end of a suburb without encountering anything larger than themselves.

Shane and Bennett discuss the third most important event of 2001, Bill Paxton's directorial debut in Frailty. When similar murders to "The God's Hand Killer" begin again, Adam (Matthew McConaughey) recalls his childhood with his father (Bill Paxton) who claimed to be killing demons in order to prevent Judgement Day. But when Adam's brother, Fenton, also begins seeing the demons, new questions arise. Reel Rap dives into this thriller that blends wholesomeness and religious extremism with a dash of humor. Shane also tells the story of how he cut off a toe as a teen.
