Today we talk about dvd hunting at thrift store in the Northwoods of Wisconsin and watching weird-O films found there with your mom! Yes a random “in the wild find” PRIMAL FORCE from 1999 is a forgotten monster movie starring resident bad ass Ron Perlman in an oddly similar Hellboy style role battling mutant baboons…

Today we talk about a wicked video store staple from FANGORIA Films from the early 90s- CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT! Filmed in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, an area that for a short time transformed the unlikely small towns of the region into a full on horror MECCA! Check out the first installment about this unique…

So the time has finally come, I just officially released my 1989 teen horror film on VHS, a co-release with Black VVideo. This little 34 minute film was a huge part of my teenage years growing up in The Fox Valley, Wisconsin and I’ve had the film on a lone VHS for 35 years. So…

Who knew? So waaaay…

OMG! Disney Plus MCU really does make dreams come true?! I’ve been begging for the appearance of the Great Lakes Avengers, one of my favorite ridiculous “D-lister” comic book teams to appear in their cinematic universe for years. Today on the latest episode of SHE-HULK they gave us the live action version of the classic…

So I went back on the Movie Melt Podcast to cover yet another pretty impressive vanity project from 2018! This time we’re headed off to ‘Werewolf Island’ AKA ‘The Legend of ‘Dog Lady Island’ (a way better name imo) for some truly ridiculous midwest horror shenanigans straight out of Michigan!If you’re into stupid but ambitious…

I’ve been saying it here literally for years, the MCU is missing the boat on one of their most outrageously hilarious superhero teams: The Great Lakes Avengers! Since the Avengers are still all the rage and essentially dismantled at the moment, it’d be the perfect time for the comedic gold of Wisconsin’s very own superhero…
