Fun Box Monster Podcast #9 Ghoulies II

Ok... Sure there's not a lot to go on for this one, but we soldier through... Love this movie warts and all. Sets are the best, plus its full of Ghoulies. Some great actors giving it all for a movie about little goblin monsters that sometimes eat people's asses.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #8 Tourist Trap

We talk about the classic film, Tourist Trap. If you've never seen it, just picture Scooby Doo meets Saw, and you won't be far off.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #7 Trancers

Hey squids! Go down the line with us on this trip to the magical year of 1985 where beef is plentiful, and LA isn't yet a flooded hellscape. So slick back your hair and put on your finest overcoat for our in-depth analysis of Charles Band's classic film, "Trancers".

Fun Box Monster Podcast #6 Mutant Hunt

Stretchy armed cyborgs who look like they're at the Revenge of the Nerds battle of the bands? 2 villains who had to share the same costume so they were never in the same shot together? Space Shuttle Sex Murders? All this and more on this week's Fun Box Monster Podcast! (*technical note...we recorded this on the computer's internal mic this week... sorry for the poor audio quality)

Fun Box Monster Podcast #5 Bad Dreams (1988)

We talk about the 1988 film, Bad Dreams, usually written off as a rip-off of Nightmare on Elm Street 3, (by me at the beginning of the podcast as well...I backpedal pretty quickly though...) but is a pretty fine film in its own right. Starring the always amazing Richard Lynch, and Dean Cameron (AKA Chainsaw from Summer School...) it's a who's-who of B movie actors with great kills, great effects, and a pretty cool (albeit mildly confusing) plot. Check it out!

Fun Box Monster Podcast #4 ICED (1988)

Matt and Tristan are joined by Damian Maffei AKA The Man in the Mask from Strangers : Prey at Night, to talk about the impossible to find horror classic (?) Iced. Damian chose this, so its his fault. The movie is a tough one to get through, so let us help. Its out there on Youtube...or you could pay $100 for a VHS copy.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #3 Demon Wind

People being turned into demons, people turned into dolls and exploded, people eaten by cow skulls and a kung-fu magician. Its all part of the wonderful world of Demon Wind. Tristan and Matt try to dispose of abandoned plot threads, and make sense of this 1990 classic.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #2 (976-Evil 2 : The Astral Factor)

Out of the darkness and into the light... we discuss the much maligned Jim Wynorski classic 976-Evil 2. We promise that this isn't just a Wynorski podcast, it just happened that we talked about it last time, and got really stoked to watch it again. Which was a great idea, because its a crazy-fun movie.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #1 Hard To Die

The first ever Fun Box Monster Podcast about "Hard to Die" AKA Sorority House Massacre 3 and all things Jim Wynorski. Probably the only horror movie I can think of where the hero is the unkillable lumbering backwoods maniac.
