Monday Apr 29, 2024

There is no regular episode this time out, yet again, but Lee had time to talk about two films he screened for friends a couple of days previous to recording; those being Joe Dante's "The Howling (1981) & the Bruce Pittman-directed, in-name-only sequel to "Prom Night", "Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II" (1987).

Monday Apr 15, 2024
Monday Apr 15, 2024

Tuesday Dec 12, 2023

TMBDOS! Intermission #45: ”Nightmare Beach” (1989).
Thursday Oct 26, 2023
Thursday Oct 26, 2023
Lee and Paul are back for another bonus episode, this time covering Umberto Lenzi's (maybe) spring break slasher film "Nightmare Beach" (1989), featuring John Saxon and Michael Parks. Who actually directed it? Does a mash-up of 1980s sex comedy and 1980s slasher work? All this and more, so why not hitch a ride on our electric motorcycle?

TMBDOS! Intermission #44: ”My Bloody Valentine” (1981).
Monday Oct 23, 2023
Monday Oct 23, 2023
Lee and Paul have a talk about a classic slasher shot in Lee's home province of Nova Scotia, "My Bloody Valentine" (1981), directed by George Mihalka. Much of the talk revolves around the restored gore scenes that were cut from the original release, how this film speaks to both Lee and Paul as Canadian and American East coast boys respectively, and the small town East coast economic realities the film may or may not be directly commenting on. And, of course, there's just a lot of geeking-out about how good a slasher it is in general. You could say they mined a lot from this one. Get it? They dug deep? Okay, we'll see ourselves out.

Monday Sep 04, 2023

Plans for a regular episode this week were put on hold, so Lee decided to put out an intermission, briefly talking about seven films he recently watched. The films he talks about are:

TMBDOS! Intermission #42: ”Brainscan” (1994).
Monday Oct 24, 2022
Monday Oct 24, 2022
Lee, Leah and Paul plan some virtual murders as they cover the over-looked 1990s horror gem "Brainscan" (1994), directed by John Flynn. Depressed Edward Furlong; the new iconic horror villain who never was in Trickster; and the most early 1990s soundtrack to ever exist are just a few of the things talked about in this sloppy crime scene cover-up of an episode.

TMBDOS! Intermission #41: ”The Beast with Five Fingers” (1946).
Tuesday Oct 18, 2022
Tuesday Oct 18, 2022
Lee and Leah drunkenly talk about a film they watched on their vacation in October of 2021: the Robert Florey-directed "The Beast with Five Fingers" (1946). This was originally recorded for Gary Hill of Cinema Beef's 31 Days of Howling Beasts series that he didn't get to finish. This might still show up on his feed at some point, but we thought we'd put it to use just in case.

TMBDOS! Intermission #40: ”The Oracle” (1985).
Thursday Oct 13, 2022
Thursday Oct 13, 2022
Lee and Leah are back for some more bonus content, this time talking about the Roberta Findlay-directed "The Oracle" (1985). Bad acting, mustaches, fake Ouija boards, ambiguous killers, and a ghost that's killing all the wrong people are just a few things that come up when they can stomach actually talking about the film.

Monday Jan 24, 2022
Monday Jan 24, 2022
Leah and Leah are back for an Intermission episode to cover a lesser-known slasher film from 1982, the David Nelson-directed "Death Screams". Is this rural slasher, full to the brim with red herrings and extended sequences at a county fair, one rightfully forgotten, or is it a hidden gem? The hosts go back and forth weighing the good and the bad, including the quality of the respective versions of the film they each watched. Come listen, just don't lose your head over it!

Friday Dec 24, 2021
Friday Dec 24, 2021
Lee & Paul are back together to cover the Z-grade sci-fi film "The Astounding She-Monster" (1957), directed by Ronald V. Ashcroft. This semi-forgotten, low-budget shlock about a sexy radioactive space alien has some interesting aspects to it, including the possibility of the titular star, Shirley Kilpatrick, faking her death to make a better film career for herself as Shirley Stoler! Don't touch this podcast, just listen to it at a safe distance!

Tuesday Dec 14, 2021
Tuesday Dec 14, 2021
In this latest Intermission episode Lee and Leah are back together to talk about one of the first (if not the actual first) atomic monster films from the 1950s, "The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms" (1953), directed by Eugène Lourié. Much of the conversation revolves around the fantastic Ray Harryhausen special effects work and if the rest of the movie manages to live up to that. How is this both not based on a Ray Bradbury story, but kind of is at the same time? What the hell is Lee Van Cleef doing here? Why does Leah's cat keep butting in on the recording? All this and more. Listen before the Rhedosaurus destroys the podcast like it was some lighthouse or a diving bell!
