Howling At The Full Moon - ”Puppet Master”

On our show, "Howling At The Full Moon" for our 17th episode we're taking on the grandaddy of them all with the 1989 cult smash "Puppet Master." After all, Full Moon is often considered the House That Puppet Master Built.  Directed by David Schmoeller and starring Paul Le Mat, William Hickey and Barbara Crampton; the original Pupper Master is the film that started it all for Full Moon Pictures. It's a tale about a group of psychics that gather in a creepy hotel for a collegues funeral only to be besieged by the murderous and reanimated puppets that prowl the hotels grounds. Puppet Master is a legendary franchise that is the longest running series in Full Moon's history and we're excited to finally be covering the first chapter. Join our hosts Cameron Scott and Dustin Hubbard as they dissect a Full Moon classic that just goes to prove killers come in all sizes.

This is the 17th episode in a series of shows all about Charles Band's Full Moon entertainment Empire where we've got mad scientists, sci-fi epics, and rabid clowns all in one place! When you need a break from reality, let our hosts guide you through the madhouse of bloodthirsty vampires, psychopathic cookies, and maniacal puppets. Don't be a squid and join us in the fun!

Grindhouse Pizzeria - ”Truck Stop Women”

On Episode 14 of our show "Grindhouse Pizzeria" which is dedicated to all things encompassing Grindhouse and Exploitation genres, we will be reviewing and dissecting the Trucksploitation flick "TRUCK STOP WOMEN" from 1974.  The film was directed by Mark L. Lester (Commando, Class of 1999, Showdown In Little Tokyo) and starred such veterans as Dennis Fimple, Lieux Dressler, Claudia Jennings, and Len Lesser. Truck Stop Women is a sleazy tale about the corrupt and sordid bunch of characters working a truck stop in New Mexico and the gangsters trying to take over the business. Join our regular hosts Cameron Scott and Tom Komisar for a first time watch for the both of them. Truck Stop Women is a story proves that proves sometimes a mother/daughter bond doesn't run as deep as one might think.

This 3D 'epic' stars Tony Roberts (Popcorn, Serpico) as a reporter who buys the infamous Amityville house only to find out the tales of the evil and supernatural are true. Co-starring Robert Joy, Meg Ryan, Lori Loughlin, Candy Clark, and some of the most infamously bad 3D effects you'll ever witness.
