Today I’m talkin’ all things HE-MAN and the Masters of the Universe! As a LEGIT 80’s kid who was obsessed with the toys and the TV show I’m giving you the “no BS” talk about the franchise and where it’s at today! Can this new film top the 80’s version?! Does 2026 HE-MAN need steroids?!…

Today we cover a couple “trapped on VHS” gems jam packed with mutants, cyborgs & test tube baby puppet monstrosities straight out of the late 80’s/early 90s. DOCTOR DEATH the new VHS release from Black Video & AMERICAN CYBORG: Steel Warrior from 1993 – These two virtually plotless post apocalyptic action gems are a must…

Today we’re talking’ OLD school animated movies and in particular 1994’s insanely under seen cult classic FELIDAE! An insane animated horror film with house cats trying to solve a string of murders and fend off an evil CULT! Plus we talk what are in my opinion the best most bizarre animated feature films of ALL…

Right in time for the holidays, check out the dirt on this super underrated flick from 2006 that goes WAY over the top with some WILD Xmas conspiracies-TWO FRONT TEETH! This bizarro little yuletide gem is perfect for fans of SOV, no budget schlock and is quite ambitious in everything it tries to pull off…

An 80’s teen sex comedy centered around a recovering alcoholic Leprechaun who lives in a beer bottle & grants three shoddy wishes to high school students with raging hormones?! You’d better believe it! ‘GETTING LUCKY’ from 1989 delivers the goods and is one of the weirdest wildest of the genre..Getting Lucky brings the gold from…

I’ve been thinking lately about the way movies used to be made, full of cool special fx that weren’t an obscene bloated smorgasbord of shiny mind numbing digital fluff. I miss me some hands on practical work like stop motion animation and God dammit I think Charles Band (Full Moon/Empire) is reviving that genre of…

If you’re like me and are totally obsessed with monsters then I’ve got a great recommendation for you! 1993’s ‘KAMEN RIDER ZO’ Is a short & sweet, bizarre little super hero adventure that packs a monstrous punch to the gut. Clocking in at around 50 minutes, it wastes no time getting to the action and…

Holiday Horrors: ‘TWO FRONT TEETH’ An Ambitiously Stupid, Low Budget Creepy Y2K Christmas Adventure!
I’m trying to track down some weird cinematic Christmas gold this year by finally checking out some films that I’ve sort of avoided for years. Hearing that they’re a complete waste of precious holiday time or just resorting again to my “go to selections” that I often find myself a bit tired of when I…

I saw ‘Leprechaun’ IN the theater back in ’93, my girlfriend and I were the ONLY ones in the entire theater! Of course I had a damn good time and believe that ‘Leprechaun’ sort of kick-started a little mini genre of “fairytale horror” in the 1990s. While the director of the original Leprechaun also made…

The Peacock King is easily one of the most ambitious hybrid Hong Kong films of the 1980s. It’s part horror, part adventure, part fantasy, part martial arts with just the right amount of comedic timing and 80s pop charm from the director of Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. Yes the Movie Melt podcast goes back…
