Ticks (1993)

When a group of troubled teens (played by a group of bad actors) retreat to the San Bernardino Mountains to find themselves, they also find mutated Ticks and a world of woes. The movie features Seth Green (Robot Chicken, IT, Austin Powers), Alfonso Ribiero (Fresh Prince of Bel Air), the legendary Clint Howard (Ice Cream Man, Apollo 13, The Waterboy), and his dad.  With some charming special effects and a bit of a lame duck plot, the movie is a great example of schlock. Also, Jake basically decides to recite two full documentaries on Ticks from memory.  This week's "Hidden Track" is Bad Blood, with their song Kill Kill. https://badblooddfw.bandcamp.com/releases If you ever have feedback or recommendations on future episodes, please let us know at slasherspod@gmail.com.
