Fun Box Monster Podcast #218 Slumber Party Massacre (1982)
You're never gonna guess what happens in this one.
Jun 28, 2024•1 hr 21 min•Ep. 219
Fun Box Monster Podcast #217 Nightmare Weekend (1986)
Nightmare Weekend is one of the most inscrutable movies I’ve ever seen. The only part I really get is where a hand puppet from a church basement religious show is killing people with little grey balls. Everything after that got really weird.
Jun 14, 2024•1 hr 29 min•Ep. 218
Fun Box Monster Podcast #216 The Running Man (1987)
Boy, he sure does run.
Jun 07, 2024•1 hr 29 min•Ep. 217
Fun Box Monster Podcast #215 Shadow Creature (1995)
One thing I can say about this movie with absolute certainty is that it was shot in Buffalo. As a bonus, the creature clearly cast a shadow when exposed to a light source. Truth in advertising indeed.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #214: The Uninvited
You think your cat has killer hairballs? Ha! I mean seriously folks. I've heard of a hat-on-a-hat, but a cat-in-a-cat? You guys are great. Anyway, what else is in the news... Um, have you heard about this? This cat has poison spit, and can contaminate your entire food supply. What is this Chipotle? Thank you, you guys have been great that's my time. Remember to spay and neuter your pets.

Thrill me.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #211 Head of the Family (1996)
We finally messed around and upset the head. Now we are dead.
Apr 05, 2024•1 hr 12 min•Ep. 212
Fun Box Monster Podcast #210 Vamp (1986)
First off, if nobody won a graphic design award for this logo, there is no justice. Next, jinkies. This movie is a whole lotta wacky.
Mar 22, 2024•1 hr 46 min•Ep. 211
Fun Box Monster Podcast #209 The Visitor (1979)
Somehow this science fiction version of the Omen, featuring Tolkienesque levels of backstory about a girl being chased by space gods/police, infiltrating the world government and the perils of basketball team ownership was a little too confusing for the unhip audiences of 1979, but luckily we've evolved since then.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #208 Leprechaun (1993)
On this week's episode, we talk about the Irish Anti-Defamation league's favorite film, Leprechaun.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #207 Maniac Cop 3: Badge of Silence (1992)
In a twist that I can't imagine anyone expecting, the Maniac Cop series veers into a Voodoo Bride of Frankenstein story where a Houngun priest stabs severed heads, makes human turduckens, and worships anti-justice by bringing back Maniac Cop for the purposes of... getting justice? Your guess is as good as mine.
Feb 23, 2024•1 hr 27 min•Ep. 208
Fun Box Monster Podcast #206 Beyond Reanimator (2003)
Our series of Cops & Crooks continues with Beyond Reanimator. It takes place in a prison so it counts.
Feb 09, 2024•1 hr 20 min•Ep. 207
Fun Box Monster Podcast #205 : Manic Cop 2 (1990)
Maniac Cop 2 is basically a buddy cop movie with two serial killers. It's kinda weird.
Feb 02, 2024•1 hr 38 min•Ep. 206
Fun Box Monster Podcast #204 Shocker (1989)
Yeah...but like...what if Nightmare on Elm Street was...like, bad?

Fun Box Monster Podcast #203 Maniac Cop (1988)

To celebrate the re-release of Tristan's superhero horror comic Rad Wraith (Rad Wraith Double Feature #1 out in better comic stores everywhere) we're talking about the best superhero horror movie of all time, Nightmare on Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #200 Little Devils : The Birth (1993)
Canada owes me an apology. If you were looking for an even lower budget version of a knockoff Puppetmaster movie... look no further.
Dec 22, 2023•1 hr 32 min•Ep. 201
Fun Box Monster Podcast #199 The Howling 2 : Your Sister is a Werewolf
I think the title really says it all. It's a sequel to The Howling, and someone's sister is a werewolf. Also, the movie is a hot mess and really fun.
Dec 16, 2023•1 hr 35 min•Ep. 200
Fun Box Monster Podcast #198 Ghosthouse (1988)
Ghosthouse is a goddamn delight. I don't know what else to say. Everyone needs to see it or they won't believe that it is real.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #197 Grave Secrets (1989)
Unlike my line of gravy for kids, Gravy Secrets, the only gravy with a fun prize floating in the jar, Grave Secrets is a kinda bleak ghost story about horrible, depressing real life crap best relegated to Lifetime original movies. My recommendation is to not watch it, and instead spend the hour and a half drinking gravy.

They're Invaders From Mars and we do care.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #195 Slaughterhouse Rock
It's got Tony Basil and Devo. So there's that.
Oct 06, 2023•1 hr 20 min•Ep. 195
Fun Box Monster Podcast #194 Ghoulies (1985)
If you calculate the quality of a film based on the number of Ghoulies present, this is the greatest film of all time.
Sep 29, 2023•1 hr 22 min•Ep. 194
Fun Box Monster Podcast #193 The Lift (1985)
"In The Netherlands, no one can hear you scream!"
Sep 08, 2023•1 hr 25 min•Ep. 193
Fun Box Monster Podcast #192 Appointment With Fear (1985)
This might be the weirdest movie I have ever seen. If you are the President of Movies, please make us a fancy BluRay with multiple documentaries on the making of this movie. I will be forever grateful. Trying to describe it here will not do it justice. Watch this movie.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the pumpkin patch, and run over a witch with your car...
