A star-studded cast is ruined by dreadful dialogue, but effects masters Steve Johnson and Eric Allard save the day with great gore and fx. …continue reading The Daily Dig: Virus (1999)
Great eighties’ practical gross-out effects are sure to please gore hounds, and you should expect nothing less from Roger Corman’s studio. Biologically altered, killer …continue reading The Daily Dig: The Nest (1987)
It’s a little bit “Men in Black” and a little bit “Body Snatchers”, with the visceral direction of “Henry” director John McNaughton. An alien …continue reading The Daily Dig: The Borrower (1991)
“Ghost Town” is slick looking with decent effects, but that can’t make up for a languishing story that feels unfinished and unfocused. A deputy …continue reading The Daily Dig: Ghost Town (1988)
A story of a man driven mad by a ghost, this film is driven by the one and only Vincent Price and some excellent …continue reading The Daily Dig: Diary of A Madman (1963)
One of the better adaptations of Lovecraft, “The Resurrected” has plenty of effects to please gorehounds as well as some story depth. A private …continue reading The Daily Dig: The Resurrected (1991)
One of William Castle’s lesser-known films, “The Night Walker” relies on a strong score and makeup by Bud Westmore for its scares. A widow …continue reading The Daily Dig: The Night Walker (1964)
Bill Paxton’s performance in “The Vagrant” is criminally overlooked; a solid horror-comedy with a great antagonist in Marshall Bell. A man buys a new …continue reading The Daily Dig: The Vagrant (1992)

Guilty Pleasures
She’s a lover, he’s a fighter. Together, they’re CHEER AND LOATHING. Tune in to hear your hosts, Stephanie (Cheer) and Casey (Loathing), clash over the films they love — and the ones they love to hate.
Afterglow: Bait (Plus Meg)
Join the Guilty Pleasures crew as we continue the conversation, hanging out after the show, shooting the shit, and talking about all our thoughts and feelings on this month's featured film that we couldn't fit into our regular, hour-long episode.
We had an amazing time recording our BAIT episode (if you missed it, don't forget to tune in for a killer conversation). On this after-show, we talk a little about the shark film you didn’t pick, MEG (though, it’s mostly just a Jason Statham love fest). For the MEG talk, you’ll want to dive in about the 30-minute mark.
Prior to that, we discuss movies and filmmakers we love that are problematic. Plus, we talk about the good, bad, and ugly when it comes to romantic comedies and teen dramedies, new and old. We also bemoan the disrespect for goths in films like BREAKFAST CLUB and THE FACULTY.
Towards the end of the show, you’ll get some big hints about what’s coming to future NO NOTES and GUILTY PLEASURES episodes. We wrap with an ode to perfect films and briefly chat about why we love horror so much.
