The Real Get To Da Choppa

In this episode of my Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace fan commentary, I dive headfirst into Episode 5 – “Scotch Mist”, one of the most gloriously unhinged chapters of the series.

From Darkplace Hospital shrouded in fog, to the unforgettable Scottish ghost warriors, this episode cranks the gothic horror, accidental comedy, and pure Matt Holness madness to maximum. We talk Dagless logic, Sanchez reactions, Liz’s expressions of mounting concern, and why “Scotch Mist” perfectly represents everything that makes Darkplace a cult classic.

If you love retro horror parody, Channel 4 comedy, or analysing why something is terrible in all the right ways, this commentary is for you.

In this episode of the podcast, Andy Godoy is joined by his best friend Damian Sayers for a full fan commentary on The Last Kumite — a movie that proudly wears its Bloodsport inspiration on its sleeve.

Created as a film by fans, for the fans, The Last Kumite is a love letter to classic martial arts cinema, underground tournaments, and the golden era of VHS fight movies. We break down the fights, the callbacks, the passion behind the project, and why this movie resonates so strongly with fans of Bloodsport, Van Damme, and old-school tournament films.

This is a relaxed, honest, and enthusiastic commentary celebrating martial arts movies made with heart, and the community that keeps this genre alive.

If you love cult action films, fan-made cinema, or just talking martial arts with friends, this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Real Get To Da Choppa, I dive into Ulysses 31 – Episode 8: The Secret of the Sphinx with a full fan commentary.

This time, Ulysses and the crew encounter one of the most mysterious and eerie episodes so far — ancient riddles, cosmic mythology, and that uniquely strange blend of Greek legend and sci-fi that only Ulysses 31 can deliver. I share my thoughts scene by scene, what stood out, what worked, and why this episode is such a memorable entry in the series.

If you’re watching along or revisiting the show as an adult, this one’s a fascinating (and slightly trippy) ride

Welcome back to Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace as I dive into Episode 4 – Apes of Wrath

In this episode of The Real Get To Da Choppa, I break down one of Darkplace’s most unhinged and absurd chapters — where experimental science, killer apes, and Darkplace’s complete lack of logic collide in spectacular fashion.

We talk:

• The escalating insanity of the Darkplace experiments

• Why Apes of Wrath perfectly sums up the show’s genius parody

• The performances, dialogue, and low-budget brilliance

• And how this episode pushes Darkplace further into cult-classic madness

If you love Darkplace, cult TV, British comedy, and fan commentary, this one’s for you.
