BGH Classic Pack - Deep Cuts

Submitted by Jon on Thursday, Apr 11th 2013

For any number of reasons, some episodes of the Bloody Good Horror Podcast have never been available as part of our BGH Classics. Call it a mystery. Call it a conspiracy. Call it laziness. Today, we can call it a thing of the past. We're plugging holes here people!

Horror Headlines: Thursday October 25th, 2012

Submitted by Joe on Thursday, Oct 25th 2012

Benni Diez sounds like some sort of weird Juggalo name but it's not. It's a guy who directs films and he's just been hired to direct "Stung", a new flick about giant wasps that will straight up murder your ass. Filming is scheduled to begin this spring, which I assume will give the filmmakers enough time to grow giant wasps. Woot woot.

Good news! The sequel nobody wanted has gotten a title and plot synopsis. I'm speaking of course about "I Spit On Your Grave Too". See what they did there? This time around we follow a young model trying to make it in the Big Apple who finds herself kidnapped, tortured and shipped off to another country where she's left for dead. Am I the only one who thinks the third one should be Oprah themed? I spit On your gave! And I spit on your grave! And your gave and your grave and your gave!

How the hell is it that Japan has had a longer version of Troma's classic flick "The Toxic Avenger" for this long? I didn't bust my ass in WWII for that kind of crap to be happening. Well good news freedom fighters, the much desired Japanese version of the flick is coming to the US on December 11th in DVD form. Not Blu-Ray, because Johnie Freedom don't need no Blu-Ray.

Fun fact. This past September the BGH crew was in an elevator and we were 99% sure we made "A Nightmare On Elm Street" it girl Heather Langenkamp big time uncomfortable. Turns out it was actually the step mother from "Terminator 2". Funny story huh? Anyway Heather Langenkamp has landed a small part in "Star Trek Into Darkness", the J.J. Abrams sequel to 2009's "Star Trek" reboot. See how that whole thing tied in?

In Real People News:

A 20 year old Brazilian woman has managed to sell her virginity online for $780,000. I understand mine probably wouldn't be worth that much considering the same I was in at the time but still, I think there's some girl in the greater Philadelphia region whose name I can't remember that owes me a 10 spot.

It's been almost a month since I moved away from New Jersey and it's stories like this that make me miss the garden state something nasty. Yes, I mean this story about a guy who took a dump in the back of a cop car and then ate his own finger. Don't judge me.

Trailers: "Video Diary of a Lost Girl" is like Pee-Wee's Playhouse meets Troma

Submitted by Eric on Thursday, Sep 27th 2012

With all the generic mainstream stuff we see cross our desk every day, it's really refreshing to see an indie film with such a distinct visual style. "Video Diary of a Lost Girl" is pretty low budget, but promises to be a unique film viewing experience. Be on the lookout for a review soon and check them out on Facebook for more info.

Teaser for Troma's "Return To the class of Nuke'Em High" will get you fired.

Submitted by Eric on Friday, Sep 21st 2012

The most normal thing in this trailer is Ron Jeremy dressed like Jesus smoking a bong. It's almost the most "safe for work" thing about it too, consider yourself warned.

"Return to the Class of Nuke'Em High" is the latest opus from Troma's big dawg, Lloyd Kaufman. They've been using money earned from the sale of remake rights to films like "The Toxic Avenger" to fund their new movies. As far as I'm concerned as long as Lloyd is around and making true independent cinema, everything's going to be alright... Now when do I get my sequel to "Poultrygeist"??

Posters: "Mother's Day" has one, street date

Submitted by Eric on Thursday, Mar 8th 2012

We checked out Darren Lynn Bousman's "Mother's Day" (a remake of the "classic" Troma film) a few months back on the podcast and the response, for the most part, was "thumbs up". Your chance to see it comes on May 8th when it hits DVD. The cover art goes full "Rebecca De Mornay", and frankly makes it look like a Lifetime movie. Trust us, it's not. (click to enhance)

Videos: Lloyd Kaufman gets harrassed by Occupy Wallstreeters?

Submitted by Eric on Saturday, Jan 14th 2012

Lloyd Kaufman pontificates on the message of "Occupy Wallstreet" and offers up some advice on how they can evolve and survive. Hollywood's been trying to destroy this guy for 40 years, he just might know a little on the subject...

Retro Poster: "Scream, Baby, Scream" (1969)

Submitted by Carly on Thursday, Sep 8th 2011

Joseph Adler's "Scream, Baby, Scream" can pretty much be summed up as a bad acid trip. Written by Larry Cohen ("It's Alive"), we meet a world renowned artist who plans on taking his artwork to the next level by creating living masterpieces with women that he's kidnapped. The bad dialogue, goofy fashions, and the tripped out camera angles give the feeling of many of those fun 60's monster movies. Unfortunately, it doesn't really have much going for it other than some fun psychedelic poster art. That and a weird scene where teenagers take acid and go play in a monkey cage at the zoo.

Motorhead gives new song "Outlaw" to TROMA for "Mr. Bricks"

Submitted by Erin S on Wednesday, Aug 24th 2011

Nothing is more metal than Lemmy Kilmister, and nothing says pure kick ass than Motorhead. Say what you will about Lemmy, but here's a man that can honestly say fame never changed him, he never forgot his beginnings, and he's always offered his support for things he loves, asking for nothing in return...well, maybe some Jack Daniels. But that's it!!
