For this extra spooky episode of Hot Diggity Dog, we cover the 'Burbs -aping The Dog Who Saved Halloween . The film stars Dean Cain (or is it Teen Cain?), Lance Henriksen at his creepiest, and Joey Lawrence ("Whoa!") as a talking dog. If you love guys picking up dog turds, a bumbling idiot consistently avoiding jail time, and a denouement which basically says, "We were just making this up as we went along!" then this is the movie for you!
We set up the last film in our Creepy Carnival Halloween month and figure out exactly what Josh and Skinner would haunt if they were ghosts.
We wrap up our coverage of Carnival of Blood today and we could not have predicted where this thing goes. The gore quotient is higher than we were expecting, as is the fake drunk acting. We deal with the ickiness of Gimpy and determine that DA Dan is a real piece of garbage despite being poised as our hero. Also, a word of advice: if you go to someone's house and it's full of teddy bears, you should leave immediately because they're almost certainly a murderer. Rate and review us wherever you fi...
For the next entry in our Creepy Carnival Halloween series, we're tackling 1970's (we think) Carnival of Blood. What the hell is up with those bizarre title cards? How long has this couple been arguing? Will the killer almost certainly turn out to be who we immediately suspect? Is Side-Eye Jesus the best deity? Part 2 is out Thursday.

We're back with another mini episode where we reveal the next film we'll be covering in our Creepy Carnival month. We discuss the best ways to integrate blood into carnival rides, retired military members in bathtubs, undead aquatic animals, and the possibility that we might get a crazed clown in this movie (fingers crossed!)
We close out our coverage of Funland with an episode that's longer than it should be, but there's just so much to say about this movie. There are so many things this movie could've done to be at the very least coherent and it goes out of its way to do the opposite. There are parental abuse jokes, racist jokes, sexist reverse psychology jokes, and so much more. And Skinner reveals something shocking to Josh -- and no we're not talking about Peter Pepperoni. Rate and review us wherever you find th...
We kick off the scariest month of the year with the first entry in our Creepy Carnivals series: 1987's Funland. We might've whiffed this one, since it sure doesn't seem like this is a horror film. Seems more like a comedy, what with the barrage of terrible dick jokes we get. Thank goodness we get a pretty rockin' opening track to save us from certain death. Only time will tell whether this actually turns into the horror show we desire or is in fact the groan-inducing dark comedy that it seems to...
It's still September, but we're getting into the spooky season a little early by revealing the first film in our creepy carnival theme month. We also discuss deviled eggs. Will it be fun? Will it be scary? Will we die of fright? There's only one way to find out! Rate and review us wherever you find the show!

We close out Selleck septembR with the rest of our discussion on Ramblin' Man, a movie that is enamored of its country music guest stars (especially Ray Stevens) and expects us to not recognize Morgan Fairchild if she puts on a dark wig and glasses. Topics of discussion include the durability of police station entryways, the field of view of sex cams, and the beauty of Scooby-Doo chase sequences. Rate and review us wherever you find the show!

We begin our final film of Selleck septembR with this made-for-TV (or made- from -TV?) movie Ramblin' Man ! We've got a charming Tom Selleck, a braggadocios Jerry Reed, crooked country cops, attempted murder, and a chase sequence complete with a slow-moving train. We also talk A LOT about Ray Stevens' discography. Part 2 drops Thursday! Rate and review us wherever you find the show!

We keep chugging along with Selleck CeptembR (that'll make sense eventually, unless it doesn't) and talk about music, robots, brothers-separated-at-birth, and develop a new, mostly horrifying concept: boot babies.
We close out our discussion of Runaway with an incredibly long episode! We have so much to say about this incredible movie that a regular episode length couldn't contain it all. We talk extensively about Gene Simmons' sneer, Tom Selleck's robot wife, acid spider robots, magic robot bullets, and what a Runaway film series would look like. This is a good one, friends.

We kick off Selleck septembR with 1984's Runaway , a movie about cops in a non-specified future who fix malfunctioning robots. We spend time in a cornfield, we speculate on how many different types of robots there are, and we wonder if Selleck's character's oft-discussed vertigo will be important to the movie in some way.

We kick off our new, extremely questionable theme month by revealing our next film and talking a lot about Tom Selleck and robots (things that we will not remember talking about on next week's full episode).
We close out our Summer of Summer series with the second half of our discussion on 1988's Aloha Summer. In part 1, we predicted samurai swords, maybe ninjas, and maybe ghosts. We don't quite get everything we expected, but there is more death than there ever should be in this coming-of-age story. We also get grumpy dads, lots of surfing, and an airport that solves all of our characters' problems. Rate and review us wherever you find the show!

We're at the end of our Summer of Summer Series and what better way to say farewell than by watching 1988's Aloha Summer? Will we get ninja battles? Will there be a ghost? Will there be more casual 50s racism? Is there a better name for a gang of friends than The Salty Six?
In the last mini episode of our Summer of Summer series, we reveal our final film and wonder if we'll finally get some time on the beach, just like the late, great Beach Cop Joe Summerman would want.
We're back with our discussion of the second half of Hot Summer in Barefoot County and oofa-doofa, we really wish this film didn't have so much fun depicting sexual assault. This movie is a rough watch and that's why we recommend NOT watching it. But you SHOULD listen to our episode on it as we have a good time dunking on all these terrible characters, especially our "hero" Jeff Wilson. And we posit a scenario in which Barefoot County is a spout of ancient evil. If you like the show, rate and re...
We drink an entire bottle of moonshine and head down south as we kick off the final month of our Summer of Summer series with 1974's bootlegging comedy Hot Summer in Barefoot County. Marvel at Josh's authentic* Southern accent, shock at Skinner attempting to say "Blackbeard Bull Tatum" seven times fast, and witness a terrifying visit from the future. Also, it can't be stated strongly or often enough: do not watch Hot Summer in Barefoot County. If you like the show, rate and review us on Apple Po...
In this episode of Hot Diggity Dog, Josh and Skinner hit the randomizer and are treated to a film with bad facial hair, Ex-Lax-filled cupcakes, a man who is basically made of cardboard, insanely good fortune for a family who absolutely doesn't need it, a hamster-thief, and a pepper grown by Satan himself.
On this week's mini episode, we try to get things back on track after last week's comedy-allergic film. We also talk a lot about feet and Skinner coins several of the grossest phrases Josh has ever heard.
Our biggest fear is realized as we finish up our discussion on 2016's based-on-a-true-story-depressing-as-hell Cruel Summer. And since there's not much to really talk about and this film is comedy poison, we decide to talk about our own cruel summers and take a walk down memory lane.
Summer of Summer rolls on with 2016's Cruel Summer, a movie that has some really problematic content right up front and sets the stage for an incredibly tough movie-watching experience. We also discuss the tragic origins of Old Man Wax Face and his royal family statues.
Predict-O-Cast Jr is back! This time around, Holly and Skinner discuss the very strange and very French Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart . Holly is terrified and Skinner can't stop insisting the moon is evil.
Our Summer of Summer rolls on, with this new mini episode where we reveal the next film we're discussing and then set up an epic battle between two classic pop bands.
If the first ten minutes of Breaking Loose: Summer City 2 set us up for something crazy, the rest of the movie doesn't let us down. We get Viking funerals, surfboard cocaine, domestic drama, deciding whether or not to sleep with your mom's friend, surfing and an insane beach battle. Plus a man laughing uproariously at a skeleton cartoon. It's a summer extravaganza.
Summer of Summer continues with us back down under, for the Summer City sequel, Breaking Loose . In the first ten minutes, we get an awesomely 80's "gettin' ready" montage, a bunch of middle-aged leather punks with a weird sense of honor, a drag race and an explosion. Looks like this summer is getting back on track.
Happy Independence Day, America! Also, you're on notice for being really terrible lately. As a way to better understand American history and the significance of July 4th, we watched the absolutely-drowning-in-dog-puns children's educational short Pups of Liberty: The Dog-claration of Independence. We spend most of our time discussing puns and then try to figure out how to dogify other American political scandals/travesties.
We roll along with The Summer of Summer, preparing ourselves to watch a sequel to a movie we've also never seen.
