From The Mutilator, Evil Dead 2, From Beyond, Phantasm 2, and NOES to Star Trek Voyager, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and The X Files, Mark has created SO many amazing effects. He is truly a master of his craft, and has won multiple Emmys recognizing his talent.

    This week we have a really fun episode lined up for you! We are reviewing a 90's horror gem with one of the most uniquely designed antagonists from horror of that time period: BRAINSCAN! (1994)

    We had quite the trippy time on this episode as we ended up stuck in a knock off version of Brainscan called "Brain Storm." I'm pretty sure that bean eating Brit bastard was the mastermind of this week's turmoil.

    You definitely don't want to miss this one! We'll see you on the other side mutants..

Thanks for the content

After getting caught up in the discourse surrounding the movie “The Sound of Freedom” I got in the mood for a deep dive into another flick that exploited the people it purported to elevate- “Cannibal Holocaust”. I listened to 25 different podcasts and found 20 repeated the same conversations, largely reading aloud the entries on the movie from Wikipedia and IMDB. This podcast was one of the 5 that stood out enough for me to listen to more of their back catalogue. At the end of the day, this is one of the 4 that I subscribed to, finding that it has discourse and content that you won’t find on the vast majority of other podcasts. I hope you enjoy it as well.
