When we discussed an Emmanuelle movie earlier this year, we had no idea there was another one coming. And this one with a top flight notch cast. We also discuss Inside Out 2 crossing the $1 billion dollar mark at the box office and what it says about how we look at flops today. Though it probably will not make as much money, we are still excited ab…

It is not often that we discuss Hallmark movies. But when it involves the Kansas City Chiefs, how can we avoid it? We also talk about the trailer for the upcoming remake of Nosferatu by Robert Eggers and a M3GAN spinoff with a really neat premise. We also discuss the importance of an AI girlfriend. Whenever we review a movie for our humble little p…

Since Jordan Peele’s next movie is not scheduled to release until 2026, there is not much to talk about. It does lead into a conversation about new ideas in Hollywood, however. We also talk about the awesome marketing behind Longlegs. Sometimes, there is too much importance placed on being wholly original. We get so caught up in seeing something co…

Has there ever been a more appropriately titled movie than 28 Years Later? We talk about the latest casting news for a sequel that seems like it has been decades in the making. It is the 35th anniversary of HBO’s Tales From the Crypt. Now’s the perfect time to rewatch your favorite episodes. All you need is to do is dust off those old DVDs… Tribeca…

We were not the only ones who loved Late Night With the Devil. It has set box office records for all independent film and has been critically praised. We talk about what its immediate future holds. Plus, David Lynch made his big announcement and we called it. (Spoiler alert: it's not the second GTA VI trailer.) You can pinpoint the exact moment Wha…

David Lynch recently made an announcement, and in typical Lynchian fashion, nothing is as simple as it seems. One thing is for certain: it will be a treat for our eyes and ears. We also talk about one of the strangest musicals we have ever heard of. If you like anime and giant naked men, this may be the news you have been waiting for. When you are …

Join us as we break down our June 2024 releases! The Severin Films gang welcomes special guest Kat Ellinger to talk about DANZA MACABRA Vol. 3: The Spanish Gothic Collection (Necrophagous / Cake of Blood / Cross of the Devil / The Night of the Walking Dead). As always, DJ Alfonso is here to treat your ears to a playlist inspired by this months anno…

It is almost impossible to quantify what Roger Corman has done for horror. He pretty much invented B horror, launched the careers of some of the most talented directors of all time, and is behind some of the most iconic genre films of all time. His influence can be seen in the video box art that older fans pine about and in podcasts like our own. H…

Blade Runner is one of the most revered science fiction films of all time. It has spawned video games, books, a sequel, and an upcoming Prime series. People LOVE the movie. We talk about a major casting decision for the show and how the original movie is overrated. The Strangers is one of the best home invasion movies of all time. Surprisingly, it …

A few weeks back we discussed unfilmable books. One that is often brought up is Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian. Reportedly, another adaptation is in the works. There is a reason that the many attempts to adapt it have fallen apart, however. As the name implies, Southern Gothic is a subgenre that is heavily influenced by elements of the American s…

We have devoted plenty of time on our humble little podcast singing the praises of The Blair Witch Project over the years. But what do we have to say now that the original cast has made some pretty heavy demands? We also talk about a video game adaptation taking place in El Paso and why the opinions of video game fans may be the most reliable. All …

A few weeks ago we talked about The First Omen and how it needed to make cuts in order to avoid an NC-17 rating. Blake brought up an interesting point. What if the movie was horrible and was relying on being over the top to garner word of mouth? And cinema history has shown that an entire film being gross just for the sake of it is not usually a go…

Decades ago, Anne Rice showed us that placing vampires in the southern United States usually leads to great storytelling. While it is all rumors, there may be a new horror movie using the same formula. With names like Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan attached it sounds interesting. Killer clowns have been a thing for a very long time. You would f…

We have franchises on our minds this week. We did not think The Pope's Exorcist was a big hit. It underperformed at the box office and any time we heard about the Russel Crowe movie, it was just about how awful it was. Apparently, it has gathered a cult following. How big of a fanbase? Would you believe a trilogy? We also talk about the new Matrix …

The unbe-LEE-vable team at Severin are here again to discuss the upcoming fist of fury that is the Bruceploitation box set, THE GAME OF CLONES VOL. 1. We're extremely proud to discuss this incredible box! We go disc-by-disc breaking down all 15 movies, including the world-wide blu ray debut of films from pre-print elements for the first time. As yo…

It is not often that we cover box office blockbusters. There is the occasional special edition, but most of the films we cover tend to fly under the mainstream radar. Late Night with the Devil does not change that, but it has done some interesting business. But as is par for the course nowadays, it comes with a bit of controversy. We love hearing a…

Since its 1988 release Beetlejuice has been a fan favorite. The story mixes outrageous moments of humor and horror while the characters are some of the most memorable in film. We knew there was no way to avoid it, but there was no need for a sequel. And yet decades later we are presented with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. As with any remake, it was hard…

Sure, the Academy Awards are a joke. But they are usually good for something. No, it was not an opportunity to make a real social statement. And who cares about Donald Trump’s nonsense? The Satanic ritual smack dab in the middle of the ceremony, however… It has been a tough year for the Scream franchise. When everything hit the fan a few weeks ago,…

Two Severin Films Hall of Famers get the red carpet treatment as they make their UHD debut, CATHY'S CURSE and THE DEVIL'S HONEY. Making its Severin Films AND UHD debut is the Sergio M…

There have been plenty of attempts to adapt Dune, but none seemed to have captured the magic of the source material. Is Frank Herbert’s classic unfilmable? Whether you are a series expert or are just watching the new films in a vacuum, there are some noticeable flaws in the movie. Characters are a big part of the movie, and there is one who stands …

It’s something of a throwback episode for Look Before Your Leap week. We review two nonsensical movies: one is a release from The Asylum and the other is a Portuguese import. Both are fun in their own way, but one is horrible while the other has to be seen.Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful PodcastNetwork. Morbidly Beautiful …

We may give our opinions on a few movies each week, but it is rare that we go back and remind the audience that they have to go out and watch something. Lovely, Dark, and Deep is the rare exception. We have absolutely gushed about it since we first saw it last year and are glad to see it has finally been released in theaters. There are a lot of opt…

When over 100 million people watch something, there is no way we can avoid talking about it. We discuss our favorite trailers from this year's Super Bowl. And yes we chose to talk about Knuckles instead of Wicked. And was there a commercial for Scientology during the big game or are people just messing with us? Bram Stoker is a horror icon, but not…

The dastardly dealers at Severin are coming at with a slate of films that put the WILD in "The Wild West!" Join us as we break down all three of the February titles. Two iconic roughies from the Something Weird Video archive being restored from their original camera negatives, THE HOT SPUR and THE SCAVENGERS directed by Lee Frost. Also coming out t…

It seems like cult movies are a thing of the past. Sure, there are ones that find a big following on streaming networks, but it is not the same as the little films with the outrageous box art that was always rented out. They were the movies whose titles would spring up constantly even though they never played at a theater. Those day are definitely …

There are not enough haunted attractions. There are haunts set up all over the country during October. And most cities have some type of ghost tour, but there are very few year round places that are devoted to horror. Blumhouse is doing something to fill that void. But can the studio responsible for The Exorcist: Believer and Truth or Dare really g…

We began the year by talking about the movies we liked the least and most from 2023. Unsurprisingly, we had little crossover with the Academy Awards but the Razzies did have some of our picks, but is that a good thing? Oppenheimer was one of the biggest movies of the year. So why did it take so long to get a Japanese release date? The answer might …

Dune: Part 2 is slated to be one of the biggest releases of this year. What better way to commemorate its release than to revisit David Lynch’s version of the Frank Herbert classic? Forty years after its controversial initial release, Lynch’s Dune will see a limited release in theaters. Is there anything more that we need to say about The Exorcist:…

New Year New Sleaze! Turn off the lights and grab your moms, becuase we're going to take a BITE out of January. Listen as we break down the three titles hitting shelves this January including the Jess Franco's monster rally DRACULA, PRISONER OF FRANKENSTEIN. Making it's US UHD debut is the Italian sleazoid classic BURIAL GROUND! Lastly, the Aussie …

Before we gush about 2023, we talk about one of the most underrated remakes of all time. Largely ignored at the time of its 1988 release, The Blob is an excellent remake of a sci-fi classic. With the news that David Bruckner is attached to the next iteration of the film, we talk about what excites us - and why Bruckner has his work cut out for him.…

Before we get down to business, we talk some movie news. Mickey Mouse has entered the public domain - sorta - and on cue a pair of horror movies and video game were announced. When the same thing happened with Winnie the Pooh, people were amused. This announcement has been met with widespread anger and we cannot figure out why. The news of a new ho…

It has been a tumultuous few weeks for Scream VII. After losing its two leads, the movie was rocked with the news that its director had quit. There will still be a future for the popular franchise, but should there be? American television is a strange thing. Shows either go on for too long or are canceled before their time. It is rare to see a seri…

Join us as we take a final look back at an incredible year in home video releases. Join your hosts in a much more relaxed format compared to our usual show. We talk about some of our favorites, some of the contraversies that have come up, we hear from more of the Severin office, as well as talk about the first quarter of 2024. As always, DJ Alfonso…

There is a surprising amount of genre film news this week. Godzilla Minus One has done well among critics and audiences. This has led to a re-release that sounds pretty cool. For the time being, it is only in Japan, but we are sure it will come to America. We also talk two upcoming sequels. One has us excited; the other? Not so much. We have been p…

It has been a while since we last talked about video games, but some announcements at The Game Awards sparked our interest. (At least on the show.) We also speak about Smile 2 and its imminent release. Plus, how the change from Ryan Gosling to Christopher Abbott in Wolf Man may actually be a good thing. Whether the original French or the Italian sp…

Hollywood was crippled by strikes earlier this year. This led to a number of delays and changes including Dune: Part II. Thankfully, some great character posters were released. We also talk about one of the least talked about movies from one of our favorite actors. Plus, a look at the potentially great genre offerings coming at the end of the first…

Last week came some stunning news that seems to have crippled the Scream franchise - at least for the time being. What does the future hold for one of horror’s most iconic series? Perhaps even more stunning has been the success of Blumhouse Five Nights at Freddy’s. Against the odds, it has become the studio’s highest grossest movie of all time. We …

SPOILER ALERT! AS WITH EVERY SPECIAL EDITION WE WILL BE DISCUSSING SPECIFIC PLOT POINTS Eli Roth is a lot like Rob Zombie. (Or is it the another way around?) That is a bold statement, but we talk about what the two horror fans have in common - and it is not the fact they both had trailers in Grindhouse. The difference is Roth knows how to put toget…

We may not have spent much time talking about it, but the actors strike loomed over our humble little podcast. Now that it is apparently over, we talk about the ramifications it had and what it means for the future. We also have a discussion about the the prequel to Stephen King's It, Welcome to Derry. There are plenty of stories to be told and the…

Hollywood has all but come to a complete halt in recent months. One thing that has not changed is the news of more installments of established franchises. We talk about the interesting history of Highlander, the odd decision to make another Hocus Pocus movie, and how we feel about each one. We all knew that Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey was not …
  continue reading
 
Viewing habits have changed drastically over the years. We talk about how delays have become a bigger part of the film calendar than ever before and how it now seems to take more than tentpole franchises to draw audiences. Plus, Mike Flannagan has another Stephen King adaptation coming and you may be surprised to hear who is part of the cast. We ha…

To call Piper Laurie an underrated genre icon would not be entirely correct. She was an award winning actress who grabbed the spotlight in pretty much everything she was in. It is not until looking at her entire career that her contributions can be truly appreciated. We also revisit the idea of a Halloween television show and talk about the future …

SPOILER ALERT! AS WITH ALL SPECIAL EDITIONS, WE HOLD NOTHING BACK AND DISCUSS MAJOR SPOILERS! There is so much to unpack when it comes to The Exorcist: Believer. How the rights almost cost half a billion dollars. The fact there is literally not one exorcist in the movie. Trying to connect it to the original. But we mainly talk about how disappointe…

Join Euro-cult Santa, David Gregory, and his merry bunch of sadistic Severin elves as they break down a surprise November announcement, DANZA MACABRA Volume 2! Why am I making Christmas puns this early? You'll just have to listen to the episode to find out. Listen to the Severin team with special guest Kat Ellinger break down this impressive follow…

Akela Cooper has become a low key regular on our humble little podcast. We raved about M3gan earlier this year and covered Hell Fest previously. We talk about her latest project which covers one of horror’s most popular tropes. Earlier this year, we were shocked to hear that Glen Danzig would be making an appearance at the Cannes Film Festival. He …
