Summary: <p>What a year it has been! We have reviewed films and provided reports on so many topics!</p> <p>Our pilot episode was Event Horizon, </p> <p>The first official episode was a review of Pet Sematary (1989), its sequel, and the novel by Stephen King. Then we moved on to An American Werewolf in London. </p> <p>The next film we discussed was The Faculty, think Invasion of the Body Snatchers, but with pomade. We then argued about C.H.U.D., where Jake defended it while Bryan was resoundingly luke warm on the classic. </p> <p>Mimic was the debut appearance of Jake's beautiful wife, Ciara. We had a failed foray into true crime discussing the Ted Bundy confession tapes documentary that sucked ass. Ciara returned very quickly and we talked The Craft. </p> <p>Our next Stephen King adaptation was Salem's Lot. </p> <p>Blood Diner was the undefeated "Trashic" champion for the entire year, the best good-bad movie of all. </p> <p>We then reviewed Carrie, who according to the novel "...eats shit."</p> <p>Next was the very loose H.P. Lovecraft adaptation, Castle Freak. </p> <p>We reviewed two Leprechaun films, the original and the 4th, in space. </p> <p>We have done two Clint Howard classics, Ice Cream Man and Ticks. </p> <p>Did you know that Stephen King wrote The Running Man? </p> <p>Street Trash features an old fashioned dick toss.</p> <p>The Lost Boys has nothing to do with Peter Pan.</p> <p>Return of the Killer Tomatoes is incalculably better than the original.</p> <p>Toxic Avenger Part III sucks.</p> <p>The Void is spectacular.</p> <p>The Omen has the best opening of any movie ever.</p> <p>Legion is actually rad.</p> <p>So I Married an Axe Murderer is an affront to human decency.</p> <p>1408 is succinct.</p> <p>Body Bags should have been an ongoing series.</p> <p>Cujo is rabid.</p> <p>High Tension is French.</p> <p>The Loved Ones was more fun than prom.</p> <p>Jaws is totes gnar.</p> <p>Vampire Hunter D really ain't bad.</p> <p>As Above, So Below is literature in disguise.</p> <p>Maximum Overdrive proves Stanley Kubrick was right.</p> <p>Arachnophobia makes me happy.</p> <p>Eight Legged Freaks holds up super well.</p> <p>It, is too long of a book, but all of the film adaptations are worthwhile.</p> <p>Tales from the Crypt should be mandatory reading.</p> <p>Bad Taste will change your view of independent film.</p> <p>Wes Craven was a weirdo, but a legend.</p> <p>Battle of the Cryptids, because bigfoot would do jiu jitsu.</p> <p>Alien, while derivative, is wholly unique.</p> <p>Shaun of the Dead, is kinda the same as Alien in that regard. </p> <p>The Shining is a masterpiece, but people are crazy. </p> <p>Marvel Zombies is exhausting, but great.</p> <p>Yokai are super duper interesting.</p> <p>Hammer Films are legendary.</p> <p>Little Monsters is charming.</p> <p>Phantoms is bad.</p> <p>Gremlinsis the perfect holiday film.</p> <p>13th Warrior is an honorary slasher due to swords.</p> <p>Krampus needs to be a yearly tradition.</p> <p>Demonic Toys vs. Small Soldiers is actually a closer argument than you'd think.</p> <p>This week's "Hidden Track" is actually our new official theme song!
