The Evil Dead is Sam Raimi's entrance into the world of proper filmmaking. And what an entrance it is. With his ragtag group of friends in tow, Sam handles this supernatural horror flick and all the demonic entities that have been conjured along with it handily. Trust us, Bruce Campbell and his boomstick make this the must-see spookablast treat of the Halloween season!

There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. You are about to participate in a great adventure. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to . . . 2015's The Witch: A New England Folktale.
This Robert Eggers masterpiece is worth every lock of Michael J Fox's hair I harvested to get us there. Ralph Ineson, Anya Taylor-Joy, Harvey Scrimshaw and Kate Dickie made it more than worth our while. And being set in the 1630's in our neck of the woods is a siren song that refused to be ignored. You've seen it. You love it. Now you'll love us for loving it!

Creepshow is the pinnacle of '80s horror anthology, and we're here for it. The dream team of horror came together to create this masterpiece. And that team is George Romero, Stephen King and Tom Savini.
Tell me how a cast including Leslie Nielson, Ted Danson, Hal Holbrook, Ed Harris, Adrienne Barbeau, E.G. Marshall and Fritz Weaver (among many others) somehow created a campy comic book based horror anthology for the ages. I'll wait. -

The Fog is a sleeper in John Carpenter's canon. The soundtrack is not! This 1980 movie demands your attention with a stacked cast (see what I did there) of Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, Hal Holbrook, Tom Atkins, Janet Leigh, John Houseman, and of course Tommy Lee Wallace.
Beautifully shot and scored on a modest budget, this movie has aged like a fine wine. So many films that were critically panned have become classics over time, and John Carpenter has his share in that column. Which is a shame. I'm sure that had he been embraced as the master he was/is, we'd have more of these gems to enjoy.
Creeping death to us all. -

It's casual. This Cameron Crowe flick, referred to as the spiritual sequel to Fast Times at Ridgemont High, brings together a cast on the cusp of breaking the decade of movies wide open.....right after its release. We've got Chris Penn (Footloose), Eric Stoltz (Mask), Ilan Mitchel Smith (Weird Science), Leah Thompson (Back to the Future), Randy Quaid, Rick Moranis and Jenny Wright (St. Elmo's Fire). With cameos by Leo Penn, Lee Ving, Sherilyn Fenn, Ronnie Wood, Ben Stein and Robert Ridgely! And a score by EDDIE VAN HALEN!!!!

This George Lucas joint is the jam. Trust us! It's essentially Indiana Jones with a duck. Yeah, Yeah. That's the ticket. Whatever your opinion is, Leah Thompson compels you. The dark overlords possess you. And a baby Tim Robbins begs you. Don't look away.

This movie is the perfect all-nighter watch. NYC in the mid 80s'? Please and thank you! And much like the misadventures of Griffin Dunne in this Martin Scorsese masterpiece, After Hours, I just couldn't get this one done. It was a long and winding road that took me at least twice as long as usual. Very apropos.
Now that it's done. Let's all relish the absolute monster cast of....Griffin Dunne, Rosanna Arquette, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, Catherine O'hara, John Heard, Dick Miller, Bronson Pinchot, Cheech & Chong, Verna Bloom, Will Patton and all the bit players that round out this movie. -

Here we are with another installment of the Malden Chronicles. Brother James and brother Jeff are proving the less than amusing local color once again.
What to say? If you've read any summaries on older Malden episodes, you've got the lay of the land. If not, please indulge yourself. It really does provide a little more insight, which inevitably makes the listening experience more engaging.
In the immortal word of Charlie Daniels...
But I couldn't believe it, I just had to find out for myself
And I couldn't conceive it, I never would listen to nobody else
No I couldn't believe it, I just had to find out for myself
That there's some things in this world you just can't explain -

Hoosiers 1986. Gene Hackman takes us to the hoop with this classicg tale of triumph and redemption. Commanding your respect and admiration along the way....unlike that louse of a drunk that Dennis Hopper plays. Shaking and shivering like a scared little bitch below the covers. I'm so cold....waaaaaah.
It was Dentyne. -

Join us on the flat circle, for the first in a seemingly endless loop of Terminator films. One and done. We're giving you the best of the lot. Best of the decade. Best of the genre.
This is (unarguably) James Cameron's best film, thanks in large part to his brilliant (re)casting of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Linda Hamilton, Michael Biehn, Earl Been, Lance Henriksen, Bill Paxton and Paul Winfield round out this inspired cast. Never forget Dick Miller, no matter how small his part may be.

Here we are again with another episode of The Malden Chronicles….Crime Does Pay. A few more unearthed stories from my older brothers Jamie and Jeffrey. Cue the Benny Hill music.
Lean and mean. As usual, this sit-down has been trimmed down to 45 minutes from well over two hours. Dressed up in its best court suit and ready for public presentation. You’ll have to trust the fact that a lot of the other stuff has to remain in the family breast pocket. I couldn’t possibly edit some of the tales in a way that holds together, makes sense, and/or convince anyone that we’re decent human beings.
Although, I should probably assume that our ship of acceptance sailed with the maiden episode, “I’m Your Huckleberry.”

"The years hadn't softened Moronie. He continued to murder the English language, and anyone who got in his way. "
1982 may be The Year of Living Dangerously, but 1984 is most definitely the year of living Johnny Dangerously! This movie inhabits a special place in the realms of comedy, parody classics of the '80s. And the creative license taken on curse words has lived a quiet life of infamy in small groups of immature males for the last 39 years.
Here's a roll call of how deep the cast runs. Michael Keaton, Joe Piscopo, Danny Devito, Marilu Henner, Maureen Stapleton, Peter Boyle, Griffin Dunne, Dom DeLuise, Glenno so Connor, Ray Walston, Alan Hale junior, Dick Butkus , Jack Nance, Bob Eubanks, Taylor Negron, and Joe Flaherty. You'll have to trust me that there are many more after reading that aggravatingly long list. Had to slip an adverb in here somehow.

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!
If you repeat the word apathetic three times, plan on a late night pep talk from your three favorite hosts. One that will likely keep you from ever uttering that word again.
Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Tim Burton, Danny Elfman and the year 1988. What more do you want?! This movie leaves one wanting for nothing on every level. If you happen to disagree, Robert Goulet will chum the waters of the bayou with your unappreciative ass.
Sit back and grab a KitKat, some Reece's Pieces, a couple Twix, or all three, and enjoy Phil's Michael Jackson Halloween costume confession. We've decided to maintain our friendship despite what you're obviously going to end up thinking of him. Not that we'll disagree with you, but apathy is a real feeling and quite frankly, we could care more.
