05.20.2024
TMBDOS! Episode 309: "Opera" (1987).
Lee is joined this episode by his friends Greg and Nick to cover Dario Argento's "Opera" (1987). Many seem to think this is the last great Argento film. Is it, or is it an illogical mess, where it's clear Argento...

TMBDOS Intermission #49: RIP Roger.
In this Intermission episode Lee gives some thoughts on the legacy of the recently deceased king of B-movies Roger Corman. He also talks about what he's been watching recently, including the new horror film "Abigail". Lee's recent guest spot on The...

Blood on the Tracks Episode 75: 1970s Crime and Thrillers Part 2.
Lee finally gets around to doing a follow-up to the very first episode of Blood on the Tracks: music from 1970s crime and thriller films. Lee was short for time this month, so that equals less talking from him and...
04.29.2024
TMBDOS! Intermission #48: Wolf Prom.
There is no regular episode this time out, yet again, but Lee had time to talk about two films he screened for friends a couple of days previous to recording; those being Joe Dante's "The Howling (1981) & the Bruce...
04.22.2024
TMBDOS! Episode 308: "Persepolis" (2007).
In this episode Lee and Leah tackle an animated feature: the often funny, but ultimately pretty heavy and harrowing "Persepolis" (2007). This film, written and directed by Marjane Satrapi & Vincent Paronnaud, adapts Satrapi's striking graphic novel about her life...
04.15.2024
TMBDOS! Intermission #47: April (Radiation) Showers.
So far it's been slow going for April on the podcast, so Lee decided to do a quick intermission episode covering his thoughts on three Italian genre films he recently screened for friends, and the new "Fallout" tv show that...
03.31.2024
Blood on the Tracks Episode 74: 1980s Italian Action Mixer.
Lee is back this month with a mix of music selections from Italian action films from the 1980s. There's some superhero antics, some comedic slapstick action, late period poliziotteschi, and items that fall under the "macaroni combat" moniker. The list...
03.25.2024
TMBDOS! Episode 307: "The Grifters" (1990).
Lee and Leah are joined in this episode by returning guest Robby Roberson, and new guest Wick, to cover a film Robby has wanted to get on the show for a while now, Stephen Frears "The Grifters" (1990). This neo...

TMBDOS! is back after a month off. Lee is joined by OG co-host Daniel Harper to cover Billy Wilder's "Ace in the Hole" (1951), starring Kirk Douglas. Sensationalist journalism; exploiting tragedy; mixing noir with the "human interest story", and much...
02.29.2024
Blood on the Tracks Episode 73: More Vanity Insanity.
Lee's back this month to cover more score/soundtrack selections from vanity projects. That's right - those special films made by special people with a special vision. Who cares if the films are actually good or not? These (mostly) outsider artists...
02.12.2024
TMBDOS! Episode 305: "Mudhoney" (1965) & "Girl on a Chain Gang" (1966).
Lee is joined by friend and fellow podcaster Vaughn Kuhlmeier to talk about two early examples of what would come to be known as the Hixploitation genre, those being Russ Meyer's "Mudhoney" (1965), and Jerry Gross' "Girl on a Chain...

Blood on the Tracks Episode 72: Exploitation Samurai (Hanzo the Razor & Lone Wolf and Cub).

TMBDOS! Episode 304: "Wait Until Dark" (1967).
This week Lee and Leah keep open minds and open eyes as they talk about the tense thriller "Wait Until Dark" (1967), directed by Terence Young, and starring Audrey Hepburn & Alan Arkin. Does this slow burn of a film...

TMBDOS! Episode 303: Best (and worst) First-Time Watches of 2023.

01.01.2024
Blood on the Tracks Episode 71: Unused Scores Part 3.

12.25.2023
TMBDOS! Episode 302: ”Freebie and the Bean” (1974).
Lee & Leah buddy-up for the final episode of 2023 to lay down the law with the Richard Rush-directed "Freebie and the Bean" (1974), starring Alan Arkin & James Caan. How well does this decidedly non-PC buddy cop comedy play...
12.12.2023
TMBDOS! Intermission #46: December Blue Balls.
The chances of getting a regular episode as of late has been slim-to-none, so Lee sat down and recorded an Intermission episode, talking about the lack of episodes and six recent watches. Featured Music: "Hooray for Santa Claus" by Roy Alfred...
11.30.2023
Blood on the Tracks Episode 70: Peak Lynch.

TMBDOS! Episode 300: ”Ghost Beaver Kick” (2019).
Lee and Leah celebrate episode 300 of the podcast by looking at a Canadian-made martial arts/sci-fi/comedy indie short, starring Leah herself! It's 2019's "Ghost Beaver Kick", written and directed by Stefan Phillips. Of course, Leah has a lot to say...
11.13.2023
TMBDOS! Episode 299: ”Dogs Don’t Wear Pants” (2019).
Lee and Leah push their kinks to the limit as they talk about the odd-ball semi-thriller/drama about, grief, kinky sex, and self-discovery, "Dogs Don't Wear Pants" (2019), directed by J.P. Valkeapää. A lot of the conversation revolves around the psychology...
10.31.2023
Lee Van Teeth Halloween Show 2023.

TMBDOS! Episode 297: ”Rabid” (1977).
Lee and Leah are feeling a little crazed towards each other this week as they butt heads while talking about David Cronenberg's "Rabid" (1977), starring Marilyn Chambers. The talk centers around how effective the movie executes its premise, the parallels...

TMBDOS! Episode 296: ”Maniac” (1980).

Lee, Leah, and Daniel fulfill a listener request and review the somewhat obscure stoner/sex comedy from 1995, "National Lampoon's Senior Trip" (1995), directed by Kelly Makin, and featuring the film debut of Jeremy Renner. Is this film a sleeper hit...
09.28.2023

09.04.2023
TMBDOS! Intermission #43: The Last Voyage of the Nightbeast Menu.
Plans for a regular episode this week were put on hold, so Lee decided to put out an intermission, briefly talking about seven films he recently watched. The films he talks about are: "Ms. 45" (1981) "The Menu" (2022) "The Last Voyage of...

Blood on the Tracks Episode 68: Sex Comedies of the 1980s.

TMBDOS! Episode 291: ”The Limey” (1999).

Blood on the Tracks Episode 67: Sex Comedies of the 1970s.
