Sequel Too, Deja Vu - "Child's Play 2"

On this show our specialty will be all sequels, sequels and more sequels.

Killer Wheels Appreciation Month - "Rubber"

'Killer Wheels Appreciation Month' was technically over with our previous episode on "CHRISTINE" but we here at Cinema Degeneration felt we owed you just one more! We have devoted weeks of time to demonic cars, psychopathic bulldozers, murderous motorcycles, and now for something a little different! These Killer Wheels all have something in common: they all seem to have a mind of their own! For Episode #8 which we are naming 'The Redemption Episode' to make up for the horrible start of things with the boring and banal "THE HEARSE", we are dissecting a real cult classic that continues to divide fans even a decade after it's release with the infamous "RUBBER" from 2010. This flick is all about a killer car tire named Robert that has the power to blow things up with their mind. Yes, you read that right. This one has to be seen to be believed.  Cameron Scott and his frequent film co-collaborator and returning guest host Rebecca Rinehart dive into this obscure tale of that centers around the ideal of 'No Reason.' Are you tired of the unexpected, because you'll never see this one coming!
