Lee is joined in this episode by guests Vaughn and Wick to cover two Euro-horror films. First off it's the stylish Giallo "Blood and Black Lace" (1964), directed by Mario Bava, and then they look at a mash-up of the old dark house film with the then emerging Euro trash horror boom, with Jean Brismée's "The Devil's Nightmare" (1971). The hosts also all talk about one thing they watched recently. Does Vaughn just hate movies? Tune in to find out!

TMBDOS! Episode 319: "Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde" (1971).

Lee and guest host Wick check out Roy Ward Baker's "Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde" (1971), a Hammer production which marked the first gender-bending adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's famous story. The conversation jumps around from the excellent lead performances of Ralph Bates and Martine Beswick to how the film weaves in the Jack the Ripper and Burke and Hare stories, as well as if it actually intended any progressive message with its gender-switching story, of if it was all just an excuse to see Beswick fondle herself in the mirror while naked (spoilers: it was!). The hosts also talk about what they've watched lately.

TMBDOS! Intermission #52: "Patrick Still Lives" (1980).

Lee and Paul have some more drunken bonus content this week as they cover the unofficial Italian sequel to "Patrick", "Patrick Still Lives" (1980), directed by Mario Landi. How sleazy can the makers of this film get with the material? How amazed and shocked can the hosts become when talking about the beautiful women in this cast and the horrible things that happen to them in the film? Listen if you dare.

This month, as we get closer to spooky season, Lee has crafted a quick and dirty playlist revolving around vampire films from the 1970s. Greats like Dracula, Yorga, Barlow, Blacula, and several other lesser known blood suckers are featured. Lee talks less than usual on this one, so you the listener gets to the music faster!

Blood on the Tracks Episode 79: Grab Bag 5 - Bagnarok.

Another busy month equals another TMBDOS! Grab Bag episode of Blood on the Tracks! That's where Lee does the very lazy thing of building this episode's playlist from tracks found on official episodes of the They Must Be Destroyed On Site! podcast, and does very little talking about the music, if any at all. This playlist covers soundtrack and score selections found in various episodes between 265 and 314. Enjoy!

TMBDOS! Intermission #50: End of Summer Update & Recent Watches.

Lee gives a state of the podcast update, mentions other podcasts he's been on as of late, and then he goes over a few recent watches.
Featured Music: "Bad Fog of Loneliness" by Neil Young & "Keep Moving On" by Bloodshot Bill.

Blood on the Tracks Episode 78: Squatch Sounds.

This month Lee takes a look at music from films about possibly the world's most famous cryptid, the Sasquatch - or as it/they are better known in pop and general culture: Bigfoot. There are just so many films, especially in the last thirty years or so, that the list is focused on the real peak period of interest, the 1970s and 1980s. Even then this list threatened to be much larger than it ended up being, but a lot of the music was impossible to source. Still, Lee feels this list is large enough to pay proper tribute to that mythical(?) hairy giant in the woods.
--Main Theme from "Bigfoot" (1970) --Richard Podolor--The Legend of Boggy Creek from "The Legend of Boggy Creek" (1972) --Chuck Bryant & Earl E. Smith--Popcorn from "Shriek of the Mutilated" (1974) --Hot Butter--Ballad of McCullough's Mountain from "Blood Beast of Monster Mountain" (1975) --Tim York--Exits and Truckstops from "Creature from Black Lake" (1976) --Jim McCullough Jr.--High in the Mountains & Bigfoot Theme from "Sasquatch" (1976) --Lane Caudell & Al Capps--Suite from "Snowbeast" (1977) --Robert Prince--What's it Take to be a Believer from "In the Shadow of Big Foot" (1977) --Phillip Malbrough--Main Title from "Return to Boggy Creek" (1977) --Darrell Deck--Yeti from "Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century" (1977) --Sante Maria Romitelli feat.

TMBDOS! Episode 316: "The Trip" (1967).

Lee closes out TMBDOS!'s tribute to the late Roger Corman by checking out his look into the world of LSD, "The Trip" (1967), with the help of friends and fellow podcasters Mike Wood and Vaughn Kuhlmeier. Written by Jack Nicholson, and starring Peter Fonda, Susan Strasberg, Bruce Dern & Dennis Hopper; does this snapshot of a very specific time and place in American culture still resonate today? Does it have anything deep to say or is it pure exploitation? Apart from the main film discussion there's a few wild asides, and the hosts also talk about what they've watched recently. Turn on, tune in, and drop out with us for an hour and a half.

TMBDOS! Episode 315: "A Bucket of Blood" (1959) & "The Little Shop of Horrors" (1960).

This week Lee and Daniel are joined by friend and fellow podcaster Gary Hill to continue the Roger Corman tribute thread. This time they cover two very similar cheapies Corman and writer Charles B. Griffith came up with "A Bucket of Blood" (1959) & "The Little Shop of Horrors" (1960), which are two great examples of doing more with less. The economic film making of the Corman method; the greatness of Dick Miller, and many other things are touched upon. The host also talk about what they've watched as of late.

TMBDOS! Episode 314: "Targets" (1968).

Lee and Daniel continue the Corman tribute this week by talking about one of the more stand-out films to be produced under his watch, that being Peter Bogdanovich's "Targets" (1968). Boris Karloff, playing a thinly-veiled version of himself contends with new Hollywood and (eventually) a mass shooter, as Bogdanovich tries to find a way to fit the Corman-mandated amount of footage from "The Terror" into the film where he can. Lots of talk about mass shooters and serial killers at the time, and just how deftly this whole thing is put together by Bogdanovich, directing his first real film. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late. NOTE: there are two or three ever-so-brief moments where Daniel's mic breaks up for a few seconds, but it does not really effect the conversation as a whole, which is really good one.
