If you’ve ever wanted to watch a movie starring Bruce Springsteen’s younger sister as a girl who used to be a boy, then strap in, because we watched Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers! A sequel to the 1981 horror / transphobia film Sleepaway Camp, 1989’s Sleepaway Camp II stars Pamela Springsteen as the “reformed” slasher from the first film, though it takes basically no time at all for her to go back to her murderous ways. Check it out!

It’s a question we’ve all asked ourselves at one point or another: What if Peter Jackson, director of The Lord of the Rings, decided to do an acid head version of The Muppet Show as a movie? Well, it turns out the answer was waiting for us all along in the form of 1989’s Meet the Feebles! Aaron Buell (2 Guys, a Girl, and a Goblin) joins us as we watch a movie featuring a Kermit the Frog lookalike strung out on heroin, throwing knives at a hedgehog and having Deer Hunter style Vietnam flashbacks, a morbidly obese hippo with a food addiction, a puppet fly that eats feces from toilet, a fox who sings about sodomy, and much more!
Meet the Feebles is available from Amazon through the link below:

Did you like the X-Men, but thought it would be better if they were a bunch of clinically depressed hipsters? Since Wes Anderson wasn’t available to make this dream happen, Patrick Willems stepped in to give us a glimpse into a world of twee mutants. I think we could all benefit from living in a world full of adorable miniatures. Watch:
After the disappointment of S. Darko, we couldn’t have been more pleased with the awesome spectacle of 1970’s Italian film making that is Starcrash. Caroline Munro as Stella Star jiggles her way through 94 minutes of pure camp, complimented by the immensely talented Christopher Plummer, and a pre-Knight Rider David Hasselhoff. Made a scant 18 months after Star Wars, Starcrash is a blatant attempt to cash in on Lucas’ success. This movie features all the things you loved about Star Wars, just done on a much lower budget and with less skill: Droids!…Sort of Not quite light sabers! Man torpedoes! We’re joined by Lauren Wood to talk about all this and more in this Italian gem.
Starcrash is available on DVD from Amazon.

In terms of cultural impact, few shows have been as successful or a more positive force for change than Star Trek and its sequel shows and movies. The writers and creators dreamed of a future without want, where petty bigotries and inconsequential differences no longer plague our species, at least not to the degree that they do now. Commander Spock served as a counterpoint to the brash and cocksure Kirk, and helped highlight both our foibles as emotional beings as well as the strength we can gain from them, in the form of love and compassion. Leonard Nimoy’s stentorian delivery and gentle good humor made what could have been a somewhat dry and even unpleasant character into someone to be loved and admired.
He was, and always shall be, our friend.
A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP

We always knew that Nicolas Cage was a…National Treasure, but thanks to the folks at CinemaSins, we have a concise breakdown on exactly what it is that makes him so great. A disturbing number of the clips from this video are from the film we watched for the pilot of Green Light, Red Light, the 1989 classic Vampire’s Kiss, so we were excited / horrified to see them.
We’re glad the CinemaSins folks were able to watch so much Nic Cage without succumbing, unlike poor Abed…
We’re back in the saddle, and this episode, Mirabelle gets a chance to shine, aided by the rest of the party. Guns! Stunts! Zombies! All this and more in this exciting episode!
