Killer Tongue (1996)

Severed Ties (1991)

The Brain (1988)

This week Brian presents a fetish film that has no nudity and filmed through the lens of a 1990s music video. What happens when you let a European guy who's horny for Venom and Robert Rodriguez direct a movie? You get something so crazy Bruce Campbell got a case of the "scheduling conflicts." You're not ready for this overstimulating experience or Robert Englund...

The Boghag returns for one more haunting before peak spooky season ends. Meg brings Japanese psychedelic horror with her as a Halloween treat for Brian and Steve. They talk about the infamous horror film known for its piano and cat. A film so weird and hard to categorize it regularly breaks horror containment to freak out regular people. Can the three of them solve why Mr. Togo turns into bananas? Can they answer, "What da skeleton doin?" Probably not, but they'll have some fun about it.   Find Us Online-

Anthony returns this week to dole out the punishment film onto Brian and Steve. His choice? The most boring, unsexy lesbian vampire film this side of the Iron Curtain. An absolute confusing slog less interesting than paint drying and less sexy than some shampoo commercials. Some topics we discuss during this episode to dodge the movie: Dracula 2000, The Devils, and Rutger Hauer. Plus we announce Guests and Movies for upcoming the Wheel-O-Ween showdown.

In the Showdown Finale, Steve presents from the land of Japan: The Horny House of Horror. Three horny baseball friends enter a brothel. All they find is horror while they lose their penises. A film only streaming on xHamster. Clearly, the horniest and most horrible and it would be malpractice and borderline illegal if Steve were to be...

This week Brian has The Hunger. Is it a hunger for Susan Sarandon and David Bowie? Maybe it's a hunger for protogoth Bauhaus? Can it simply be a hunger for keeping his title? We take a tour through Tony Scott's modern vampire romp with a few sexy scenes set in a smoky urban sprawl.

This week Anthony presents Who Framed Roger Rabbit? if it were made by perverts and pornographers. For all the sleaze and nudity, the most hung star may surprise you. Does this Olen Ray film have the sex appeal to win a championship, or is Anthony going home uncorked?

This week it's the return of Premium Steve better known as Fangoria Chainsaw Award Winning Director Steve Rudzinski. He returns to talk about the fourth entry in his CarousHELL franchise with Brian and Regular Steve. They get into the inspirations which range from Evil Dead to Sonic the Hedgehog.

Brian and Steve conclude this Megasode with more insane Italian filmmaking. It includes KFC's worst product placement, quack psychology, and Plan 9 from Outer Space gunplay. This isn't to forget the continued parade of impossible line deliveries equal to or "better" than Troll 2. Find out how this stupid movie, stupidly ends. Then decide for yourself if you really want to watch it and collect a new set of vocal stims.

Yes you read that title right. Part 1. Somehow Brian and Steve found themselves talking for hours, plural, about this obscure POS co-directed by the directors of TROLL 2 and CRUEL JAWS. A baffling film which challenges and possibly inspires Neil Breen. A giallo gone wrong. A Lifetime movie spliced with the high school Freddy Krueger knock off film you made with your friends. Pure insanity.

Plus they talk about September's Showdown topic, Tootsie Rolls on the comeback, and Fast Forever.

Hallow Ian has chosen the form Steve and Brian's destructor for the month of July. It's a messy, ill made summer slasher that feels more like a first draft of better films. Full of awful writing and worse ADR, we follow the most uncharsimatic people Utah has to offer into the woods. What do they find? A mutant bear? A sasquatch? Some rejected WWF gimmick? The answer won't surprise you! Don't watch this movie. . . Sober.    For more from Hallow Ian check the Hallow Ian Horror Hour on YouTube.com/@hallowianhorrorhour   Find Us Online-

With our extra Monday in June, Brian and Steve a taking a trip back to when they were young'uns sneakin' HBO where they could. They discuss some of their personal favorite episodes ranging from killer dummies to poorly planned murders to maniac Santas and bad Meat Loaf. They also marvel at the amazing casts and crews brought together Katherine O'Hara, Tim Curry, Robert Zemeckis, Frank Darabount, Christopher Reeve, and more.

A star studded cast, actual Satanists, and intense of focus on melting said Satanists creates what has been called "the ultimate cult movie." Not ultimate in the way that's it's good, but in the way that it's singular in its existence and how it would impact the futures of horror and its stars. Bigfoot Ben rejoins Brian and Steve to talk about another Ernest Borgnine film. This time he brings Ida Lupino, Tom Skerritt, John Travolta and William Shatner along for a romp across the American south.

This week Brian and Steve watched the latest from horror legend Sam Raimi. Raimi brings together his 40+ years of filmmaking experience into one big mish mash of horror, adventure and comedy. The film stars Rachel McAdams in an unbelievable role of being ugly. We look at all the historical references as Raimi plays the hits. The only shame is there's no Lucy Lawless. Also, like Halloween Ends, it's a Spider-Man film.

This week Brian and Steve were forced by their patrons to watch the soulless, charmless remake of an okay Eli Roth film. What happens when you strip all the quirk, comedy, acting chops, and art from a film and replace it with greed driven, Trump adjacent Mar a Lago wives? Garbage. Garbage so bad it makes you fondly pine for the edgelord original film. Don't watch this horror film made by nobodies, starring nobody. Instead, listen to us make fun of it.

Brian thought he could escape the April punishment episode. He was dead wrong. We can do these episodes anytime. Steve unleashes a film that can be described as a stew of stupid. Full of stolen elements from better horror films like Hellraiser and Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, plus Elm Street star John Saxon and Dawn of the Dead star David Emge. The film also incorporates half understandings of Nietzsche, philosophy, the X-Men, MK Ultra and LSD. All of it under the control of one man who created the straight to DVD filmmaking format 10 years too early.

Kellie from the Final Girls and her fiancee Nirvan bring one of their all time favorites for Brian and Steve to talk about. We answer questions like: What is a peddler?

Is Maggie Gyllenhaal's Frankenstein sequel the worst movie ever? No. Is it even the worst movie of 2026? No. It is a messy stew harkening to other better films, though. A monster mish mash of Chicago and Babylon. A stitching together of Bonnie & Clyde and Sid and Nancy. And perhaps a dash of Joker 2? We're not sure. Anthony from the They Called This A Movie Pod joins Steve to run the autopsy on this one.

It also gives them an excuse to talk about the greater trend of small indie games into indie movies with recent and upcoming releases like Iron Lung, Exit 8 and The Backrooms.

The Grave Tone Pod has returned to unleash their punishment episode on Brian and Steve. Despite being filmed in California, beavers are kind of a Canadian thing, so we'll give it to them. Before Woke 1, women were written by men to call everyone a bitch or a pussy. Then they were bitten by puppets and turned into manimal hybrids of the undead. This was just the way of the world and Gen Alpha is too young to remember it. But should this movie be forgotten like John Mayer's stand up career? Tune in a find out!   Find more from Grave T...

For the first time in the show's history, Brian and Steve talk about a Leprechaun film in time for St. Paddy's Day. Of course, it couldn't be the original, or in space or in da hood. Instead, it's the lesser known rebootquel made for the SYFY channel and without Warwick Davis and especially without Jennifer Aniston. However, it is directed by Steven Kostanski before he did Psycho Goreman, but after he did The Void. The results may shock you!
