Radtober takes a trip to an old cabin in the woods and Amy Drolet and Mike Mayfield lead us into the bloody and hilarious world of Evil Dead 2. What is it that makes Evil Dead 2 one of the most beloved horror films of all time? Mike chats about the cartoony nature of the films sense of humor. Amy chats about the glorious gore. Plus, we explore the large Evil Dead franchise. Whether you already love Evil Dead 2 or this is your first exposure, there's something in this Necronomicon of an episode for everyone.

CONTENT WARNING: We DO NOT recommend seeking out the films mentioned in this episode. If you find yourself inclined to explore the world of extreme cinema we highly recommend doing research for yourself prior to diving in. There are many triggering subjects out there and everyone's taste are different. We respect that every listener has their own boundaries and we encourage you to feel no pressure to explore artwork outside of your comfort level. If you choose to explore these films, please understand you have been thoroughly warned.

 

Radtober 2022 rages on as Kyle and Matthew are joined again by musician Eric Bryan for a chat about a bunch of movies you SHOULD NOT WATCH. We explore what makes extreme art compelling in general. We explore what it is about boundary pushing art that some people find compelling. What separates transgression from depravity? But we also find time to get silly and talk about Metal.

 

Weekly Rads:

Kyle – Jack and Jill (movie)

Matthew – I Love That For You (Show)

Eric – The Rehearsal (show)

Ratober 2022 continues! This week we are joined by one of our favorite guests, the always hilarious Anna Valenzuela. Anna has a list of recommendations a mile long. This would be a good episode to keep something near by to take notes with because the recommendations come fast and often. They chat Junji Ito and make some recommendations on where to start with his massive bibliography. Plus, they share some hidden gems out there. They also talk about some show called Attack on Titan that sounds alright. As a bonus, they also stop to watch the Mario trailer together and give you their first reactions. Lots of laughs, lots of anime, and lots of hot Burnside fan service!

 

Weekly Rads:

Kyle – Halloween horror movies on Criterion and Shudder

Matthew – SNL promo with Brenden Gleeson (commercial)

Anna – My Hero Academia (anime)

This week Jen is back in the basement and so Kyle and Amy get to gleefully gab about the gory greatness of 1981's Queen of Black Magic. The 2021 remake was the first episode Amy picked when she joined the show. This is the first time the show has covered an original and a remake. Turns out both are pretty great. This movie has backflips and a guy ripping off his own head. If that sentence appeals to you, come get weird with us.

 

Spookin' On:

Kyle – The Last of Us (video game)

Amy - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (show

 

Next Week's Pick: Cronos (currently streaming on HBOMax and Criterion)

RADTOBER 2022 begins! We kick off with a bang with one of our oldest and dearest friends Adam Murray. TIR once again returns to the Friday night lineup for episode inspiration. We chat Step by Step's brazen copyright infringement, Boy Meets World getting violent and horny, and of course Family Matters' reign over the 90's Halloween specials. Plus, a cajun Edgar Allen Poe.
