It is nice to see a long running franchise try something different. The new Evil Dead movies are an excellent example. So when we heard that a new director was interested in directing A Nightmare on Elm Street, we were interested. Until we found out who that director was.

We spent a few weeks last year talking about Welcome to Derry. You can listen to just about every episode we had in November and December to hear all our thoughts about the show. The cliff notes version is we did not like it. So what do we think about season two and the news it will be adapting one of the best parts of It?

It’s a shame they do not make as many sword and sorcery movies anymore. Times and tastes change, but it seems like stories of heroes fighting evil with magic and swords would be timeless. You will come across one every once in a while - we have even covered a few here - but their heyday has long since passed.

Which is why we went back to 1982 and Conquest for our feature presentation. The movie is everything you would expect. Lots of fighting and nudity with just a little plot. But it is the work of a surprising director that makes this a must see from the genre.

We hate to start the show with sad news. But the older we get, the more it seems to happen. Two icons from our childhood suddenly passed away and we talk about their accomplishments and the legacy they left behind.

Despite not actually reviewing it for our show, we have talked a lot about Obsession. The little horror film has caught the public imagination like no other movie this year. We talk about the success of Obsession and what it means to indie horror in general.

We do not shy away from movies that make us uncomfortable. On the contrary, we often go looking for them. We did not expect Penny Lane is Dead to be one of those films. We figured it would be a fun homage to 1980s Ozploitation. And in a lot of ways it was.

But then there are the moments that harken to a darker side of the sub-genre. The movie is disgusting, bloody, tense, and an all around difficult watch. And through it all it manages to sneak in some genuine humor. It was a confusing watch to say the least. We had no hesitation when it came to the ending, however.

One of horror’s most dependable constants are Stephen King adaptations. The latest one takes a book that mixes one of the author’s greatest strengths. King is great at mixing grounded scares with supernatural horror. Which is why the team announced to work on Desperation is interesting. Plus, another clever marketing stunt from Neon.

We have not discussed the Paramount-WB merger. And for good reason. We do not know enough about it and we kinda don’t give a shit. But there is some interesting news to come out of it. Apparently with the rights for A Nightmare on Elm Street all over the place, both studios are scrambling to get a new movie out first. How sweet, fresh meat.

Buffet Infinity gets off to one of the strongest starts we have seen for any movie possibly ever. It is clever, funny, creepy, and mysterious. The indie horror is a mix of found footage and sketch comedy that manages to be familiar and unique at the same time. Through the first act, it seemed like we had found something really special.

The film then proceeded to take one of the greatest nose dives we have ever seen. It becomes completely derailed and goes from being about two warring restaurants to just a bunch of unexplained nonsense. Nothing makes sense and it is clear that an ending was never penned for this mess.
