Top 5 Junior A-Teams!
I’ve been thinking a bit about the A-Team lately after finding out that the one and only Mr. T now has a twitter account and having just recently found a copy of the recent cinematic re-boot of the franchise in a dump bin for $5. Though I love the original series and enjoyed the recent
Viva la VHS! A look back at my first video rental stores
Continuing a look back at our home video history. Pax talks a little bit about a few of the video rental stores he frequented while growing up. Check out Shawn’s recollections here. I think I’ve talked about how important the video rental store was to my development as a cult film fan. Hell, it was
Tayna Roberts doesn’t push, she shoves!
I thought it would be fun to cull through my archives of old horror and sci-fi magazines and put up a handful of Beastmaster articles. The first one is an interview with Tanya Roberts from Fangoria, issue #26, 1983 titled simply “Tanya Roberts!” If you can get past film critic James Verniere’s ridiculously, creepy and
The Beastmaster newspaper ads
The Beastmaster was released on Aug 20, 1982. If you opened the movie section of the newspaper that weekend, this is the bad ass, awesome image that greeted you. How could you NOT want to go see that movie? Am I right? It took nearly 10 years, but The Beastmaster got a sequel. The sequel,
Close your eyes and let the music Holdridge you…
The wicked awesome Fijimermaid over at Sideshow Cinema has been dipping his toes back into the world of out of print soundtrack sharing and as a great in-tandem post with the latest episode of the Cult Film Club he’s posted some of Lee Holdridge’s music from The Beastmaster and other flicks! The album is called

Starring Marc Singer (V), Tanya Roberrts (Sheena, That 70s Show), John Amos (Goodtimes), and Rip Torn (Men in Black, Freddy Got Fingered), the
Top 6 School Bullies Shawn loves to Hate!
It’s funny, Bullies seem to be such a hot button topic these days, but I can’t help but love the bullies of the cinematic universe. Whether it’s a dumb ass jock doing table lifts in the lunchroom spilling everyone’s food (probably because he was a messy baby) or a couple of fashionable goobers who have
Shawn Totally Like-Liked Them…
Since Paxton decided to open up his 80s era diary and share his top six mega crushes with the club, I felt an obligation to do the same. So I unlocked my hope chest, rifled through the clippings and found my top six movie crushes from when I was growing up in the 80s. Not
Django Caulder: Unchained
One of the reasons that we recently picked the 1966 Django flick to cover on the podcast was because of the impending (at the time) release of Quentin Tarantino’s new spaghetti-infused western Django: Unchained. Having seen the Sergio Corbucci original a few times I was really looking forward to what QT was going to put
A Django by any other name…
This week we talked about the original 1966 spaghetti western, Django. We talked about in the show how the movie became so popular that nearly any western released in Europe around that time was renamed Django whether it actually had the character in it or not. I’d thought it be fun to take a look
