This week is a solo episode with your favorite(?) mad scientist, and we are plumbing the depths of Tubi obscurities to look at a Frankensteinian, dystopian, noirish fable of jealousy and betrayal that has some interesting ideas and some really impressive dual casting, but that is just a little light on emotion and characterization.

Fiends, once again Hayden Orr has joined the gang as we ride around a small Georgia town, blowing up cop cars, angering local Sasquatches, and engaging in so many questionable practices that we can't even begin to get into it.

It's a weird week, fiends. Your friendly neighborhood Mad Scientist is flying solo this week to tell you all about this slight, low budget movie that succeeds in some ways and fails in others. Join me as I talk to myself for an hour. And don't worry, Eric will be back. And in the meantime, I'm bringing in a few ringer guest hosts to help out. But this is a lonely movie set in the isolated tundra, so maybe it works? Please rate, review, and tell your fiends. And be sure to subscribe so you don't miss future installments.

This week, we're revisiting our old friend M3GAN to discuss the killer robot's less-popular sequel.

Continuing our Elvis coverage(?), this week we're talking about this incredibly late-90s horror comedy. It's an incredibly frustrating film in that it has some really interesting ideas that are executed so poorly that it's almost indefensible. But join us as we discuss internalized homophobia, some of the worst gay stereotypes of the 90s, obscure rock 'n' roll trivia, and more! Please rate, review, and tell your fiends.
