Episode 4 – Oh rats, it’s Larry!

Welcome to Chez Ghoulzone! Please, have a seat and be comfortable. You are just in time to join me and a crapload of gigantic worms, chickens, and rats as we chow down on everything in sight.

We start with soup and salad consisting of various news items, from the future of Ghostbusters and The Thing to the anticipation of the Halloween sequel.

For the appetizer, Rob Zombie is barbequed over an open flame, then defended, followed by more barbecuing and basted with my very own brand of extra-critical sauce. Mmm-MMM!

For the main course, my thoughts on horror movie remakes. Definitions are definitioned and hairs are split, and the whole thing is cleared up for everyone. It’s finger-lickin’-good theory.

For dessert, a rich cheesey review of Food of the Gods. Director Bert I. Gordon is famous for serving up some of the most undigestible films ever made, so be sure to have plenty of fiber and antacids on hand.

This entire meal amounts to a total of 2 solid hours of fine auditory eatin’. Here’s hoping you have nothing to do for awhile!

In the sequel, these turn into HUGE butterflies

 

“You’re gonna need a bigger house”

Spoilers! The bad special effects lose!

Help! I’m being attacked by red cellophane window decals shaped like wasps! AAAAAH!

Episode 3 – Wrist cutting! Yay!

The show begins with talk of haunted houses and cheap housepaint. A criticism is made about other podcasts which should annoy some podcasters, but support is offered so maybe Fake Larry won’t look like a know-it-all jerk.

A visit from a strange neighbor occurs and puns are committed. In-depth discussion of the Machine Girl and Tokyo Gore Police DVDs is presented and much stuttering and confusion occurs in the face of the bloodiest films in recent memory. The mystery of whether or not Jason Voorhees is a zombie is finally solved, and t-shirts are made available to all. Then, there is metal.

Below are some screen caps from the modern masterpieces of Japanese filmmaking chaos, Machine Girl by writer/director Noboru Iguchi, and Tokyo Gore Police directed by Yoshihiro Nishimura, special effects man from the previous film. Upon viewing the films, it becomes immediately obvious that both men are very creative and drink WAY too much coffee.

Machine Girl

Can Japanese girls be any more hawt?

Yep.

Tokyo Gore Police

Having learned her lesson from Kill Bill vol. 1, Lucy Liu remembers to bring an umbrella.

Episode 2 – Friday the 13th – An Old Beginning

This episode I talk about the  recent DVD issues of Friday the 13th and Friday the 13th part 3, finally in 3D as it was originally released. We go back in time to when the film was released, and I talk about how the first movie helped kick off my lifelong interest in horror. Yes, there will be anecdotes.

Then we move on to debunking several of the commonly held beliefs surrounding slasher movies and F13. Evidence is presented, points are discussed, and ranting ensues. There is also talk about appreciating what makes the Friday movies entertaining, and how the 3D in Part 3 causes headaches. Yes, there will be more anecdotes.

Below are the photos I talk about in the episode.

After all this time, do the Friday movies still deliver the scares?

Exactly.
