July 07, 2024 Let Sleeping Corpses Lie
A zombie movie for a second week in a row? Well, Matt loves zombie movies, and so does this week’s guest Michael McCarty. Let Sleeping Corpses Lie (AKA Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue, AKA, Don’t Open the Window, AKA Breakfast at the Manchester Morgue, AKA Zombi 3 sand many other titles) is a European zombie film that brings in the gut munching gore before Dawn of the Dead. Inspired by Night of the Living Dead the zombies in this film march and munch to their own tune. Part ghosts, part zombies, these living dead monsters defy the conventional zombie rules. This is an underrated zombie classic. Directed by Jorge Grau, starring Cristina Galbó, Ray Lovelock & Arthur Kennedy.

June 30, 2024 Raiders of the Living Dead
Matt & Todd break the regular format and take their own advice. Instead of discussing a beloved favorite, they revisit a movie they considered to be “the worst movie they ever saw”. 35 or so years ago they watched Raiders of the Living Dead and HATED IT! For many decades it was the the low mark that all other “bad movies” were compared to. Now, they’ve rewatched it. Is it as bad as they remembered? Find out. Original film footage from Dying Day directed by Brett Piper. Raiders of the Living Dead directed by Samuel Sherman. Starring Scott Schwartz, Robert Deveau, Donna Asali & Robert Allen.
