  Episode 385: 'Hack-O-Lantern' (1988)

  Oct 2, 202631 min

  Unless you were alive during the time, it is hard to explain how big of a cultural impact the original Gremlins movie made. There was no way the sequel could live up to the first one and the franchise has gone surprisingly dormant ever since. We do have the latest news on the third installment. We were not fans of the most recent Hell House LLC movie. Which is a shame since the first movie is so good. For its ten year anniversary, the original will be screening in theaters for the first time. If you have not seen it before, now is your chance. Even when your podcast revolves around horror movies, Halloween is still a special time of year. We are starting off 2026 with a look at a slasher from the 80s that you do not hear too much about. And probably for good reason since Hack-O-Latern does nothing to stand out. Which is not to say it is a bad watch. On the contrary, it is a lot of fun. We talk about the plentiful nudity and how we look things differently, one of the funniest dream sequences we have ever seen, and the surprisingly tight story.

  Episode 384: 'Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum' (2018)

  Sep 25, 202640 min

  No matter how it turned out, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil was going to be interesting. There was so much discussion around source material and original ideas that even Cregger felt he had to go out and talk about it. Now, that the it has turned out to be another success, we talk about the future for the director. It is nice to see that AMC had more in store for the Crypt Keeper than putting it on Shudder then forgetting about it. While it certainly is surprising to see what is up next, we are looking forward to it. Of course, we cannot have nice things for too long in this world. Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum is one of those movies that we have heard about for years. The South Korean found footage is constantly brought up in best of lists. Thanks to Tubi, we finally had a chance to see it. And as fans of the sub-genre, we could not wait to see what all the fuss was about. And for the most part, the high praise is correct. The film is groundbreaking, frightening, and really easy to get in to. But it is not as perfect as people will lead you to believe. The question is not a matter of it is good or not. It becomes a case of whether its very noticeable flaws make watching the admittedly great parts worth it. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

  Episode #386

  Episode 383: 'Soulm8te' (2026)

  Sep 18, 202650 min

  We do not talk too much television on our humble little podcast. But there is one show that we have namedropped a few times the past few months. And for good reason. Widow's Bay is one of the best shows to come along in a long time. Apparently, we are not the only ones to think so. We talk about Zack's Cregger's recent apology tour and the importance of hygiene when going to the movie theater. We loved the original M3GAN. It came out of nowhere and surprised us with just how good it ended up being. Which is why M3GAN 2.0 was such a disappointment to us. It is not so much that is was a bad movie; it is more about how it ruined the first movie. M3GAN stopped being thing before it had a chance to really become one. How big was the first movie? So much so that not only was their the inevitable sequel, there was also a spinoff. But Soulm8te was not just going to be in the same universe. It was going to be an erotic horror that catered more to adults than the franchise it sprung from. And it does a very good job. It is sexy, gory, and has some strong performances. There are some missteps along the way, but they are the kind of things to be expected from a new movie. Unfortunately, the stink of M3GAN 2.0 may end up marring what is a very competent film.

  Episode #385

  Episode: 382: The Furious (2026)

  Sep 11, 202637 min

  A few months back we covered the bad news concerning Bruce Campbell’s health. We knew things would get worse; we just were not aware of how quickly it would be. We also have more news about Zack Creggers and his role in Gladys. And we thought our interest in the prequel could not get any lower. The Raid is easily one of the top three best action movies of this century. Nothing has even come close to the action and mayhem it gave audiences fifteen years ago. And it looked like nothing ever would. Until The Furious came along this year. The plot is straight and to the point. Child trafficking, missing spouses, revenge. There is not much depth, but it gets the job done. There is not much in the way of characters. Two heroes and a few villains. But everyone does an excellent job of leaving their mark on the film. But it is in the action scenes that The Furious stands out. As we say multiple times, there is nothing like it. The fight scenes are incredible. They are an excellent mix of great choreography, use of the environment, and just in your face brutality. It is basically a two hour fight scene that takes place in the span of one night. And it is amazing. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network. Morbidly Beautiful is your one stop shop for all your horror needs.

  Episode 3851: 'Conquest' (1982)

  Sep 4, 202634 min

  It is nice to see a long running franchise try something different. The new Evil Dead movies are an excellent example. So when we heard that a new director was interested in directing A Nightmare on Elm Street, we were interested. Until we found out who that director was. We spent a few weeks last year talking about Welcome to Derry. You can listen to just about every episode we had in November and December to hear all our thoughts about the show. The cliff notes version is we did not like it. So what do we think about season two and the news it will be adapting one of the best parts of It? It’s a shame they do not make as many sword and sorcery movies anymore. Times and tastes change, but it seems like stories of heroes fighting evil with magic and swords would be timeless. You will come across one every once in a while - we have even covered a few here - but their heyday has long since passed. Which is why we went back to 1982 and Conquest for our feature presentation. The movie is everything you would expect. Lots of fighting and nudity with just a little plot. But it is the work of a surprising director that makes this a must see from the genre.
