Tune into our Live shows every Sunday at 6pm EST.
Episode #135: Secrets of a Time Guardian Call Girl
In this episode, we delve into the realm of bad Sci-Fi with predictable consequences. Fortunately there is an Edwige Fenech movie in reserve to get everything back on track. But first, we go over our top six list for the week: Top Six Getaways Gone Bad!
One of the movies up for review this week is the Aussie sci-fi flick "The Time Guardian." (barely) starring Carrie Fisher and Harry Dean Stanton. This is the story of the survivors of a time traveling city and their constant war with a cyborg army. Taking story ideas from "Krull", "Blade Runner" and most notably (and most obviously) "The Terminator," "The Time Guardian is exactly as awesome as it sounds. Check out the IMdB page here!
Next, we have another entry in Edwige Fenech's catalog of films. "Secrets of a Callgirl" is a different kind of film for Ms. Fenech, wherein, this is a drama with a crime influence. The movie chronicles the story of a girl who makes one bad choice and then her lif spirals out of control from there. Edwige gets more of a chance to exercise her acting chops in this movie and it is a welcome change. See what IMdB has to say about it here!

Episode #134: Welcome the Cannibal Girls of Arrow Beach
In this week's show, we cover two movies and discuss a top six list. Nothing too different, in fact, not different at all. Well, the only difference is the topic of the list. This week, we have "Top Six Movies With Numbers in the Title (not sequels.)"
Our first flick on the review chopping block is the 1974 Meg Foster vehicle, "Arrow Beach." This is the story of a hippie girl (Foster) who runs afoul of a Korean War vet, Jason Henry (Lawrence Harvey) and his deep dark secret. What is that secret you ask? He's a cannibal. Not really a surprise given all the heavy handed editing used in the first third of the movie. With the help of a nurse, Foster tries to clear her name and prove what Jason Henry has done.

Eugene Levy as you know him today.
Next up, we have the cult classic “Cannibal Girls.” Written and directed by Ivan Reitman and starring Eugene Levy as “Clifford Sturgis,” and Andrea Martin as “Gloria Wellaby,” this is the story of a couple that runs afoul of, you guessed it, cannibal girls! The house they live in is a local legend and even after watching, we aren’t entirely sure what happened or why. Was that a good thing? Listen and find out! Click here for the IMdB page
1973 version of Eugene Levy and Andrea Martin from "Cannibal Girls"
On this week's episode, we talk about our top six favorite assylum / hospital movies. Leaving out the titles we discussed on recent shows, we manage to put together a pretty good list of combined choices.
The first movie up for review this week is the swquel in spirit, "One down, Two to Go." Starring Jim Kelly, Jim Brown, Richard Roundtree and Fred Williamson, this is the story of a group of people that end up getting swindled by the Mob after they "fix" a martial arts tournament. released in 1982, it is possible that this flick just missed out on the blaxpolitation craze.
The next movie we review is another take on the slasher genre. This time, the killer in "Fatal Games" is killing hopeful Olympic atheletes with a javelin. There is copious nudity and many sub-plots mentioned and then promptly abandoned. This film does ask one gripping question though, but you'll have to listen to find out what that is.
Our top six list this week is something that promises some really random titles. Top Six movies we haven’t talked about on the show. This can (and does) include anything. How weird does it get? Take a listen and find out!
Our first tile this week is the Dave DeFalco uber project, “Heavy Metal Massacre.” This is the story of some scrawny jerk that has a fake leather fetish. What does he do for kicks? Slowly kills people with obviously fake tools. I would link to the IMdB page like I usually do, but it isn’t even listed there.
Next up, we have the Enzo Castellari film, High Crime, a.k.a. La polizia incrimina la legge assolve. Starring the wonderful Franco Nero, this is the story of a police inspector and his war with a very powerful European drug ring. Vice-Comissioner Belli (Nero) may have gotten himself in over his head this time. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070552/
