We're back with part one of our October horror movie shows. Up first is Brad's pick: the 2003 action/thriller/horror movie 2LDK. We get into the unique origins of the film, the movie's extreme cattiness, and what happens when you're possibly under the thrawl of a bird god in your apartment. --- Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/queenvenerator/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/queenvenerator Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/queenvenerator/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/queenvenerator.bsky.social
It's October, so you know what that means: we talk about what our names would be if we were in the 80's punk gang from the movie Twice Dead. ---- Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/queenvenerator/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/queenvenerator Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/queenvenerator/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/queenvenerator.bsky.social
It's an action packed episode of Queen Venerator this time around as we discuss a ton of stuff. We open with a super sized edition of Sean's Tubi Corner, as Sean talks about watching the 1995 Casper movie, both Vacancy movies, Grave Encounters 2, and 2000 Maniacs, a gore classic by H.G. Lewis, a guy neither Sean nor Brad like. Next, Brad gives a round up of more 2023 album releases, including new albums from MSPAINT, Matt Robidoux, Paavoharju, and Natalia Beylis & Eimear Reidy. Finally, its Brad's turn to pick the topic for this show, and he chose the 1974 Italian action/comedy romp Watch Out, We're Mad starring Terence Hill and Bud Spencer. Its a good one.

On this episode, we discuss the awful conclusion to our fantasy football draft (and the insane draft evaluations that come with it), the 2007 Emily Blunt vehicle Windchill, D-Beat hardcore, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, and a lengthy discussion of Sean's pick: the 1986 Rocky knockoff Streets of Gold starring Klaus Maria Brandauer, Wesley Snipes, and whiny baby Adrian Pasdar.

We're back after a month away, and we're coming in hot with an expanded format. It's basically just smashing the long and short shows together into one thing, but it sounds more professional if you talk about formatting. That of course doesn't mean that the talk about nonsense garbage has stopped, or really been focused in any way, as this one goes everywhere. We talk about the oft-maligned 1996 Jerry O'Connell vehicle Joe's Apartment, the oeuvre of MTV Films in general, Keebler's discontinued line of pizza chips, the fact that we're apparently the number one source for information on the song "Strut" by Steven Seagal and Lady Saw, the 1986 Nico Mastorakis film The Zero Boys starring Kelli Maroney and Joe Estevez, the song "Destination Understanding" from Island of Death, new music from Novatron, Home Front, and Mats Gustafsson & Joachim Nordwall, the 1991 song "Joyride (I Saw the Film)" by Tribe, and the recent passing of noted director/wonderful maniac William Friedkin. Finally, in our main event, we discuss Sean's pick for this show: the 1982 John Frankenheimer movie The Challenge, a star-studded affair scored by Jerry Goldsmith, written by John Sayles, and starring Toshiro Mifune (and Scott Glenn, but you know... Mifune). Despite being loaded on all fronts with talent, the film flopped due to being absolutely swallowed up by the unreal number of megahits released in the summer of 1982. A true shame because this is a really good movie, and we think this is a really good episode. Enjoy?

It finally happened. After eight months of struggle, anger, and abject failure, it finally happened. We're finally putting out our episode on the 1991 Tony Scott action movie classic The Last Boy Scout starring Bruce Willis, Damon Wayans, Taylor Negron, and Halle Berry. Please, for the love of God, enjoy. --- Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/queenvenerator/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/queenvenerator Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/queenvenerator/
