Nice to see a new spin on the "I have to do '(X) Task' to keep my ex-wife from moving her and our child out of state!" trop, as Jamie Foxx plays a freelance vampire hunter in the Netflix action movie Day Shift. In need of some fast cash, Foxx's Bud Jablonsky begs his way back into the vampire hunters' union, but things get complicated when he runs afoul of an ambitious uber-vampire who's hatched a real-estate scheme to benefit her kind in a big way.
Me and guest host Glenn Lawrence of Level Up Comedy also found time in this episode to address Marvel Studios' own issues in rebooting a certain vampire hunting character of their own. (Deadpool & Wolverine cameos notwithstanding).

Casting The Net Episode 197: Fear Street Trilogy [SPOILER SUPREME] 1:45:11

לפני 5 ימים1:45:11

1:45:11

We're finally diving deep into Netflix's Fear Street Trilogy and it is long overdue. Beginning in 1994, we're introduced to the rival towns of Shadyside and Sunnyvale, as a group of high schoolers are being terrorized by ghostly spirits tied the legends of a vengeful witch from the towns' shared history, Sarah Fier. This eventually puts them in contact with a survivor from a camp massacre in 1978 who witnessed a similar attack, with their shared horrors tying back to the origins of Sarah Fier in 1666. We had plenty to talk about when it came to this adaptation of the works of RL Stine, from the music to the fashion, and the surprisingly graphic kills. From start to finish, the team behind these three films did not pull any punches!…

I guess it was only a matter of time before we covered some good old fashioned Japanese splatterpunk on the show, as we discuss Psycho Gothic Lolita this week.

Gone far too soon, Val Kilmer recently passed away at the age of 65, and we thought it only fitting to cover one of his most underrated performances in the David Mamet-directed film Spartan. After the president's daughter is abducted, military instructor Robert Scott is called in to investigate, leading to a series of events uncovering possible corruption within the Secret Service in addition to stumbling upon an international network of human traffickers.…

We've been threatening to cover the Netflix film Uglies for month, and now it's time to make good. Based on the YA dystopian future novel, Joey King stars in this film where all teenagers get operations on their 16th birthday to look more physically attractive and be elevated to a higher societal status, and not be deemed "ugly". But there are those who choose not to have the operation and live out in the woods away from the cold conformist rule of the city. Thankfully, most of them are already ridiculously attractive even without the benefit of surgical enhancement. Trust me, we get into it with this one!…

As you can probably guess, the recommendation to cover this came courtesy of the Adorable Lil' Hypebeast herself, who loves her a good "Be Gay, Do Crime" flick!…

So how does this straight-to-streaming reboot of the Dark Horse Comics character Hellboy measure up against its two previous theatrically released interpretations? I'm joined on the podcast by my good friend and Hellboy fan Will Austin to discuss Hellboy: The Crooked Man, as our favorite demonic paranormal investigator crosses paths with witches and demons in 1950s Appalachia. Teamed with a rookie agent from the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, and a young war veteran, the trio will have to face off against a sinister entity known as The Crooked Man, and make no mistake, he is as creepy as he is crooked . . .…

In the wake of The Matrix, A LOT of virtual reality-themed movies went overlooked in the late 90s/early 2000s, but this week we're talking about one of the strangest which came courtesy of one of Canada's most certified freaks David Cronenberg. eXistenZ takes gaming to a new level, but when its game designer and her security detail are targeted by anti-virtual reality extremists, they'll have to go inside her game to find out the truth behind the attempt on her life. And because it's Cronenberg, there's gonna be a lot of weird stuff with orifices . . . just warning you right now!…

It's certainly something we don't usually see from the Holiday Movie Industrial Complex.…

Too much blood? Or not enough? That's the questions we're asking on this week's episode, as we cover one of the most "2000s" indie genre movies of the year 2000 based on a cult indie comic from the 80s, Faust: Love of the Damned. Contemplating suicide after the murder of his lover, John Jasper's is given the power to exact bloody revenge, and all it will cost him is . . . HIS IMMORTAL SOUL!!!! Make no mistake, even if you think you know what you're gonna get from a movie directed by the guy who produced Re-Animator and a special effects lead named "Screaming Mad George", trust me you have no idea! Definitely don't play this episode, or watch this movie around children!…

This week, we dove deep into Cast A Deadly Spell, as Fred Ward plays private detective Harry P. Lovecraft, who's been hired to find a sacred text known as the Necronomicon.

This time Detroit's "finest" must return to the west coast after his daughter is threatened and Billy Rosewood goes missing after they start digging into a drug case.

From the director of Dead Alive and Meet The Feebles comes . . . the true crime tale of two teenage girls' burgeoning friendship leading to straight up matricide in 1950s New Zealand? This week, I'm correcting a major blind spot the films directed by Peter Jackson that I've seen, with Clarissa's first recommendation for the show, 1994's Heavenly Creatures. The cinematic debut for both Kate Winslet and Melanie Lynskey, this is easily one of the most fascinating biopics that I've seen in a while, and definitely one of the most imaginatively shot films of the 90s.…

When you wanted to cover a specific film for its 25th anniversary, but it's not available on streaming, so you cover another film for its 25th anniversary . . . that's only available (unofficially) on YouTube! Joining us once again, and most likely for the foreseeable future, Clarissa Westphal Nogueira is back on the pod to talk about Kevin Smith's irreverent faith-based comedy Dogma and Hollywood's weird fascination with religious thrillers in the late 90s and early aughts. And after 25 years, how does the film hold up, as it tells the story of two wayward angels trying to re-enter Heaven, not realizing that it could unmake all existence?…

What better way to celebrate Christmas . . . then by covering a Halloween horror movie!!! This week, I'm joined by my good friend and fellow horror fiend, Jen Johns, to discuss the latest from director David Slade (Hard Candy, 30 Days of Night, Hannibal) Dark Harvest. In a sleepy midwestern town in the early 1960s, there is an annual tradition where the teenage boys of the town are tasked with hunting down the demonic Sawtooth Jack. If one boy manages to stop Jack before he can enter the town church on Halloween night, his family will be rewarded with a new home in a more prosperous neighborhood. But if all the boys fail, the entire town will have to suffer. And when Ritchie, the younger brother of the previous year's winner sets out to hunt down Sawtooth Jack himself, he'll have to overcome more than a few hurdles, before even factoring in the chances of Sawtooth Jack tearing him to pieces, should he not prove to be a worthy competitor.…

What better way to follow up our episode on the Hulu Hellraiser reboot, than finally subjecting myself to the Dimension Films direct-to-video era of the franchise! Inspired by my fellow horror fan Clarissa Westphal Nogueira, I took on this daunting task so we could discuss the films, from Inferno to . . . .

Every now and then, you just need to talk about a movie that actually had a wide theatrical release in theaters, especially when it's already been released on streaming after six weeks! Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is already available on Disney +, so there's definitely wiggle room to discuss the Marvel Studios sequel and return of genre director Sam Raimi, after almost a decade. Joining me on this episode, I brought on my good friends Stephanie Jordan and fellow podcaster/voiceover actor Sabrina Mapp, to get into all the spoilery goodness of Doctor Strange's latest adventure. Plagued by nightmares of the multiverse, Stephen Strange discovers a young girl with the power to travel between universes, and that there's a malevolent force trying to steal that power for themselves.
