Fried Squirms Horror Movie Podcast

In this episode, the boys run the worst version of a Test Your Fright they will ever do, just to have an excuse to have some family in the studio. Join in as our guest enjoys, and is in no way repulsed by, ICHI THE KILLER. A stylish, rape-y, gory, and somehow comedic, bloodbath from Japanese director TAKASHI MIIKE.

Once upon a midnight dreary, plans got changed, as you see clearly. For we stoners can never get things right, right out the door. And so a film was remembered, remembered from before, A fun suggestion--good natured--unlike the film before… We do this….and then some gore!

The boys this week decided they wanted to get dirty and see what some of the extreme end of horror has to show for itself. For that they looked to the Unearthed Films library and decided to take a trip to Mexico for some low-budget, no-holds barred vileness. What we found might have some considering the donkey show for a far more lighthearted attraction...

Cruising the coast of Spain? Stop in at the lovely town of Imboca! Marvel at its cyclopean architecture! Meet the squamous villagers! Or, be like Danny and Tyler and take a deeper look at how close this film stays to its inspiration. Afterwords, the Esoteric Order of Dagon will be happy to counsel you about the complications of Lovecraft Fandom. Ia! Ia! Cthulhu fhtagn!

This week on Fried Squirms, Danny and Tyler follow one spider's amazing journey. From its home in a Warlock infested rainforest, all the way to finding love, and raising a family in small town California. All to answer one question. Is this quite possibly the funniest movie about eight-legged freaks that doesn't feature David Arquette?

Bees?!? No, not bees, this is the other one. The good one. The Fried Squirms take off this week to the glorious Summer Isle, where the fruit is exported, the truth is fuzzy, and the landlord's daughter is easy. Danny and Tyler dance around the maypole of this movie's weirdness in this episode. Also, CHRISTOPHER LEE.

Sometimes an idea is planted through a whisper, or a mysterious phone call. Other-times, someone emails us so we know what movie to pick. This week, by request, the Fried Squirms take a look at a dark little indie tale of friendship, mental illness, and demon slaying. Though, once the tension rises, they start to wonder. Is there something darker here?

...E tu vivrai nel terrore! L'aldilà. Once, a long time ago, we allowed ourself to be sucked into the illusions (?) of the WIZARD OF GORE, by the American Godfather of Gore, Herschell Gordon Lewis. But gore has two Godfathers, and Danny thought it was 'high' time that Tyler met the Italian side of the family. Enter Lucio Fulci's THE BEYOND. And much like the plot of the movie... Enter Hell.

Remember that movie that came out a few years ago that had the government forcing kids to kill each other in a dystopian future? Cool, well this week we're covering the Other movie with the same premise, the one where there is tons of blood, violence, and Beat Takeshi. This week it's no video game, it's the Fried Squirms covering BATTLE ROYALE! (featuring Tyler trying to remember the book)

Long awaited and finally here! This episode sees the Squirms back with two friends to talk over a movie they had nothing to do with! Family, Death, and bad Maine accents abound as these friends lay out their thoughts on this STEPHEN KING classic.

Monsters, monsters everywhere. Oh, and a serial killer too. This week the Fried Squirms jaunt through the graveyard all the way down to Midian in order to talk about an in house favorite, 1990's NIGHTBREED. If all the horror icons involved don't sell you on it, (CLIVE BARKER, DAVID CRONENBERG, DOUG BRADLEY)then the monster titties will.

Finally,we end off our Purge month with THE FIRST PURGE. To do that, Danny and Tyler went out to the movies to give you this fresh take. So after all the build up, does this movie Release the Beast?

Left vs Right, Hillary vs Don, Red vs Blue..... Tyler vs Danny? All bets are off when politicians get opened up to the horrors of the Purge, but now that they've seen all their arguments, which of the Purge movies do the boys back the most?

The Purging continues.... This week the Squirms take it out of the house and onto the streets with The Purge: Anarchy. Everything is ratcheted up here, the action, the crazy, and the boys' enjoyment. Can Frank get us safe through the night? (spoiler: He's a total Bad Ass) Listen in to hear what we thought.

A night where all crime is legal. For years this tradition has been coming around and this time the boys have decided to catch the holiday spirit! Starting off a month of looking into this film series, this movie opens up by being more entertaining than the boys were expecting, with a premise that just begs for conversation. So listen in as the Squirms talk about everything from the politics to the stupidity of THE PURGE.
