The Trash-Mex Podcast gets strange (or even more so) with a couple of films that truly warped our minds!We begin with Hermelinda Linda (1984), a peculiar & colorful horror-comedy based on a popular Mexican comic book character. Joey breaks down the film & its intriguing background.Then we get really drunk (not literally) with Las Caguamas Ninjas (1991), a videohome that drunkenly parodies Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with pot-bellied comedic actors wearing cheap costumes & doing bad karate moves with broomsticks.What is a “videohome” anyway? Armando chimes in on what the so-called Mexican home video “phenomenon” of the 1990’s-2000’s was really about.Watch Hermelinda Linda (1984) for free on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/639249/hermelinda-lindaWatch/Download Las Caguamas Ninjas (1991) on Dropbox (courtesy of everyone’s favorite gatekeeper: Armando): https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xfk77mg9h360dh1ka8m2x/CaguamasNinjas.mp4?rlkey=kycwrylt9h3qbdeefqrniyq63&st=qej8xioz&dl=0Follow the Trash-Mex Podcast on Instagram@trashmexpodcast@trash_mex_@cheddabrownRecorded in Chino, CA.trashmexpodcast@gmail.com
