Perhaps the greatest remake of all time, John Carpenter took the 1951 classic The Thing From Another World and upped the ante big time. Following the novella Who Goes There more closely then the 1951 original, John Carpenter, Bill Lancaster and John w Campbell Jr weave a fantastic horror film in the spirit of Alien. With great performances by Kurt Russell, Wilford Brimley and Keith David this is a master class in how to remake a film. Enjoy!

Today James and I breakdown what should be a classic, Ghoulies 2. Building on the "evil/possesed creature" craze of the 80's and throws it in a traveling carnivals house of horrors. This Albert Band (father of Charles Band) directed horror comedy classic was written by Charlie Dolan and Dennis Paoli and was a solid follow up to the first. To be honest, starring Royal Dano and Damon Martin as, I think this is actually the better movie of the first two. So take a listen, then watch it and let us know what you think!

Oh and PS, we have some kick ass theme music now!

This week James and I discuss and breakdown the classic 1980 slasher film Maniac, an underrated gem if there ever was one. Starring Joe Spinell and Starcrash co-star and B- Movie queen Caroline Munro. It's a twisted tail of scalps, dead moms and mannequins! Enjoy and thanks for listening!

I mentioned in the description of the Event Horizon, I mentioned that there are two locales that i still get chills from, Event Horizon showed us the space version, Levithan explores the other. Starring an all star cast led by Peter Weller it shows us that some secrets should remain at the sea floor. It also tells us not to drink randomaly found vodka on a sunken Russian ship. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas! James and I review a movie that had it come out on time might have really had an influence on the Christmas Horror genre.....it is a genre right? sub genre? Well either way with a pretty decent cast and a couple of neat ideas this movie is perfect for Christmas with the family! If your family likes urban exploration, Santa Claus, death and gore. This is our last episode till next year when we switch hosts so enjoy and stay tuned we have lots in the pipeline already!

Whats this? I have a co-host? Sure do and he picked out this little gem to review for this weeks brand new episode!

In this John McNaughton directed sci-fi horror film starring Rae Dawn Chong, an alien is banished to Earth by his kind as punishment for his crimes. Oh and he's being devolved into a human as part of it.....which is an unstable process and can cause him to start to return to his form at anytime. It's actually a pretty good sci-fi horror film with some crime drama tossed in so take a listen and if you like what you hear, check it out!

Well back to some good ole fashioned Sci-Fi B-movie fodder now with Starcrash. Hot off the heels of the success of Star Wars, Caroline Munro takes the role of the sexy and fearless Stella Star and leads Akton, Elle and eventually Prince Simon (Played by the Hoff!) against the evil Emperor (Christopher Plummer). Did I mention Elle is a western sounding cowboy and the movie even has fake light sabers? Well it does so enjoy!
