RING THE BELL!!! This week on Junk Food Dinner we explore the exciting world of LUCHA LIBRE with three Mexican luchador flicks!

Up first, a very old John Carradine plays an aging vampire with a harem of sexy vampire chicks who are causing mischief all over town, so it's up to the man of a thousand masks, Mil Máscaras to stop them in Las Vampiras from 1969.

Then, it's The Avengers of luchador films as Blue Demon, Mil Máscaras, El Médico Asesino, Tinieblas el Gigante and La Sombra Vengadora all team up to battle a mad scientist who goes by Mano Negra (Black Hand), his sidekick Black Shadow and an army of midget henchmen who have kidnapped all of their beauty queen goddaughters in The Champions of Justice from 1971.

Finally, it's the ultimate lucha libre monster mash as two of the biggest stars in the world of masked wrestling, Santo and Blue Demon join forces to battle two of the biggest stars in the world of horror, Dracula and the Wolf Man, in the cleverly titled Santo & Blue Demon vs. Dracula & the Wolfman.from 1973.

All this plus witty banter between friends, Lucha Underground chat, Record Store Day round-up, luchador masks with suits, luchars on motorcycles, unplanned Wizard-themed vacations, Junk Mail, Trailer-rama 2015, Full House jokes and so much more!

It's our second and final Ghoul Summer episode of the year and we're joined by Ghoul Godfather, Mike Dikk (of Kissing Contest) to discuss 3 movies he picked.

First, a professor goes deep into the Amazon to track down his missing documentarian students. But he only finds their footage and the grisly atrocities contained therein in 1980's Cannibal Holocaust. The flick, directed by Ruggero Deodato basically invented the Found Footage genre.

Next, a young Russian boy finds a gun and joins the army to fight back against the Nazis during World War II in 1985's "Come and See." It's a movie widely regarded as one of the best movies ever made.

Finally, Police Academy -esque bungling cops hunt a madman doing nefarious things in his restaurant in 1993's "The Untold Story."

All this plus witty banter between ghouls, Orion: The Comic-Con Correspondent, Turtles and their cool bodies, Nerd News, Blu-rays, Being a "cost-effective" ghoul, the podcast gold rush and so much more!

Grab your bunk buddy, cuz we're going to the woods for our annual summer camp theme show!

First, campers at drama club are being stalked by a murderous phantom in 2014's "Stage Fright." The film is half musical, half slasher and stars Meat Loaf and Minnie Driver.

Next, sexy disco hijinx ensue in Chuck Russell's 1979 flick "Summer Camp" starring Linnea Quigley. Porn director Chuck Russell brings us a tale of summer camp hijinx that predates "Meatballs" and totally didn't rip it off.

Finally, a tough girl and a rich girl make a bet to lose their virginities in 1980's "Little Darlings." This flick takes the normal summer camp hijinx and flips the genders to tell it through the prism of female campers. Also, kids smoke and drink in it!

JFD216: Cards of Death, Belladonna of Sadness, Killing American Style

$

Things get really weird this week on Junk Food Dinner. Parker Bowman's on the road so we call in the ghostly Mark Freado, and we're also joined by special guest Zack Carlson of Bleeding Skull and Destroy All Movies for a lively chat about 35mm, misplaced irony, fat ten-year-olds and shot on video oddities!

First up, a nearly lost film is rediscovered and released on VHS in BLEEDING SKULL VIDEO's very first release, Cards of Death from 1986! Strange Nazi-themed killers, deadly tarot cards, and a surprisingly bloody sexual appetite populate the mysterious W.G. MacMillan's only directorial effort, and we have lots of things to say about it.

Next up, we freak out in Japan with Eiichi Yamamoto's psychedelic, grotesque, and beautiful Belladonna of Sadness from 1973! Incredibly inventive (and perverted) animated sequences are used to tell the story of a tortured peasant in a feudal land who is accused of witchcraft, and some really weird stuff happens. Trust us.

Finally, we tackle another almost-lost VHS gem, from low-budget Iranian-born American film guru Amir Shervan, 1990's Killing American Style! This goofy action movie with high aspirations stars Robert Z'Dar, Harold Diamond and Jim Brown, and serves as the unofficial finale to a loose trilogy including Hollywood Cop and Samurai Cop. Implausibly staged shoot-outs and generous portions of T&A populate this fun but potentially brain-dead action-fest.

All this plus witty banter between friends, not a single Yacht Party, an all-star lineup of callers, the forbidden fruit of late night television, water droplets, phantom handjobs, sick-ass gold jackets and so much more!

Put on your swimsuit, grab your towel and apply some sunscreen because this week JFD is bringing you some fun in the sun with our action-packed beach theme show!

Up first, Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello have outgrown their beach party past and are living in Ohio with their punk rock son Bobby. But, on their way to Hawaii, they stop off in L.A. to visit their daughter (played by Full House's Lori Loughlin). But there's trouble in paradise as marital problems, surf punks and giant waves threaten to ruin their good time. Add cameos by Don Adams, O.J. Simpson, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Dick Dale, Gilligan, The Skipper and Pee-Wee fuckin' Herman and you have a recipe for fun in 1987's Back to the Beach.

Next, Corey Feldman visits his brother (Keith Coulouris) who runs a school for beach bums in Florida owned by his uncle (The Munsters' Al Lewis). But when a goofy gangster played by James Hong threatens to take away the school after a volleyball bet, it's up to the boys to assemble a volleyball team to reclaim what's theirs. Plenty of fake boobs and bad jokes abound in 1996's South Beach Academy.

Finally, Meg Foster plays a teenage hippy runaway whose travels find her on a private beach owned by Jason (Laurence Harvey) and his sister Grace (Joanna Pettet). They invite the young girl to stay with them but she soon realizes these generous property owners are more sinister than they appear. Murder and mayhem ensue in the horror thriller Welcome to Arrow Beach (AKA Tender Flesh) from 1974.

All this plus witty banter between friends, goddamn death dedications, boxers with boners, Nerd News, Blu-rays, dozens of Ohio references and so much more!

Sean's out this week, so we're joined by Jamie Jenkins from The Skeleton Crew, Devour the Podcast, Lychan It, Evil Episodes and Direct to Video Connoisseur podcasts!                                                                    

Up first, Jamie brings us a tale about two English strangers who find themselves battling the zombies after a device used to kill insects accidentally raises the dead in 1974's Let Sleeping Corpses Lie (AKA The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue) (AKA Don't Open the Window) (AKA Do Not Speak Ill of the Dead) (AKA Jesus Christ, how many titles does this movie have anyway?!)

Next, a gang of drug-taking, law breaking, pyschopathic bikers cause mayhem as they travel from town to town. But after a shoot out with some strippers in Richard Nixon masks, the gang breaks into the home of scientist and takes him, his daughter and his guests hostage. Things get pretty ghoulish and Bigfoot himself even shows up! It's all here in Dear God No! from 2011.

Finally, in an effort to cash in on the trend of goofy 70's super hero TV shows, CBS made a TV movie about Captain America, intended to be a pilot for a future show. However, the show never got picked up and all that remains is this, part 1 of a two part movie series starring Reb Brown as the iconic symbol of the USA.

All this plus witty banter between friends, Amy Fisher movies, Nerd News, Blu-rays, Corey talk and so much more!

JFD220: Mahakaal, Dreamaniac, Bad Dreams

$

Welcome to our nightmare this week as Junk Food Dinner checks out three Fake Freddy Fiascos! These flicks all borrow heavily from A Nightmare on Elm Street, but are they a dream come true? It depends on how much you enjoy moonwalking.

First up, an Indian Michael Jackson impersonator, silly kung fu fights, harrowing gang-rapes, songs about picnics, and a certain razor-gloved dream demon collide in 1993's Bollywood Freddy movie Mahakaal aka The Monster! This bizarre fusion of elements shouldn't work at all, but the Ramsay brothers manage to pull off something special. It has boogers!

Next up, we check out David DeCoteau's feature debut Dreamaniac from 1986! This Charles Band production features an awesome VHS cover on Wizard Video, but can the movie compare? We hope you like underpants.

Finally, we tackle another Freddy rip-off, 1988's Bad Dreams! The always-creepy Richard Lynch plays a crispy-faced cult leader stalking Jennifer Rubin through a mental hospital in this clear rip-off of A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 3! With extra-spooky fire effects!

All this plus witty banter between friends, the Darko/Arsenio connection, an all-star lineup of callers, tales of the wild west, Nightmare Feddy's, burps, sneezes and so much more!

JFD221: War of the Stars, Traxx, SymbioPsychoTaxiPlasm: Take One

$

It's a weird episode this week, Junkies, as we do a fan edit of a classic, a (possible) genius satire and a meta documentary.

First, a young farmer saves the galaxy with the Force in 2010's "War of the Stars: A New Hope Grindehoused." The Man Behind the Mask re-edited George Lucas' original 1977 "Star Wars" to fit in with the Grindehouse aesthetic we love so much on JFD. The movie is re-cut, re-scored and re-diculous now. Next, radio legend Shadoe Stevens is a lawman who just wants to kill and bake cookies in "Traxx" from 1988. Lawman Traxx is tasked with cleaning up and "taming" a violent Texas town, while simultaneously trying to get his cookie-making business off the ground.

Finally, a film crew is hired to film a film crew that's following a feature film in 1968's "Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One." Steven Soderbergh championed the restoration of this film and Criterion has released it.

All this plus witty banter between friends, Mystery voicemails, Virtual Mark, suspicion about Kevin's absence, "these limp wrists," Comic Con Chat and so much more!

What's that terrible smell coming from the basement of Junk Food Dinner studios? It's the unmistakable stench of GHOUL SUMMER! You sick fucks asked for it, so now you've got it! TWO WEEKS of Ghoul Summer this year. And we're kicking things off correctly by bringing in a professional ghoul, The Memphis Maniac(!) to pick our three ghoulish features this week.

Up first, while the Nazis get all the ghoulish attention, The Men Behind the Sun from 1988 shows that the Japanese were up to some serious ghoulish shit during World War II as well.. This Chinese film tells the tale of Squadron 731, a prison camp where Japanese soldiers and scientists commit gruesome atrocities against prisoners. This flick also earns bonus ghoul points for using real cadavers and animal cruelty. 


Next, Shin'ya Tsukamoto smacks us upside the skull with his frantic, industrial horror art flick Tetsuo, the Iron Man  from 1989 about a man whose body begins to transform into machinery. Shot in black & white and at a breakneck pace, this tight and abrasive film starts out nuts and never lets up.


Finally, shortly after the arrest of one of the most notorious serial killers, the low-budget horror flick The Secret Life: Jeffrey Dahmer was released in 1993 in an attempt to cash in on the morbid curiosity surrounding the crimes at the time. Directed by David R. Bowen and starring Carl Crew as the Milwaukee cannibal, this crude flick, despite it's shortcomings, found its way onto a surprising amount of video store shelves due to its sensational nature.


All this plus witty banter between ghouls, apes with machine guns, metal songs, Nerd News, Blu-rays, Chick Tracks, The Mephis Maniac pissing and so much more!

Hey, creeps. We hope you're celebrating Ghoul Summer by getting a nose bleed and not knowing why or getting some food caught in your throat.

Last year, we did 5 episodes dedicated to 5 of our favorite horror franchises. And this year, we're looking to do the same thing. Except replace "our" with "your." In the top left corner of the site, you'll see a poll. We nominated some franchises we want to honor for Ghoul Summer. Now it's up to you to pick the Top 4. We'll call this around the last week of September, so get voting early and often to make sure we do your Halloween jams!

First, contestants battle on a violent Italian game show for big ratings in Lucio Fulci’s “New Gladiators" from 1984, starring Fred Williamson.

Next, fighters duke it out in giant mech suits in “Robot Jox" from 1989. The film is directed by Stuart Gordon ("Re-Animator," "From Beyond") and pretty much bankrupted Empire Pictures.

Shock and Awegust kicks off this week with some truly insane action from Action International Pictures. It's our David A. Prior theme show! Get ready for low-budget insanity from the king of action trash! Parker Bowman's on assignment with Doctor Evil, so we're joined this week by Rachel Thode and Nick Jones!

First up, tons of tough guy stuff is set to the weirdest synth pop music you might find on VHS in 1988's Operation Warzone, an inexplicable low budget Vietnam movie from David A. Prior!

Next up, we seek out the world's most powerful (and ridiculous) weapon Rapid Fire from 1989! There's also something about a code that may have been changed.

Finally, we tackle our final David A. Prior flick for the show, 1989's Future Force! The always-weird David Carradine gets even weirder with the attachment of a flying bionic arm he uses for bad police work!

All this plus witty banter between friends, Bloody Mary's, bad explosions, crazy fist fights, crotch punching, DTMF weaponry, burps, sneezes and so much more!

JFD261: Murphy's Law, Judex, Intent to Kill

Does the terrible reign of Mark Freado, founding father of Kissing Contest, no know bounds? Only this week's episode of JFD can tell, as he joins Parker and Sean this week to chat about cool names, girls on exercise bikes, and three cult-tacular movies. (Kevin must be in Boston or something)

Up first, we chain ourselves to Charles Bronson and Kathleen Wilhoite while we run from those coppers, while watching the 1986 Canon flick Murphy's Law! This unlikely pairing of actors explore the important subjects of dope farms and mayonaise sandwiches, and we're there to take in all the action. It's got the Bradbury Building!

Next! Old man Freado brings us on a quite a rollicking caper with 1963's Judex! Based on an earlier film serial, this stylized look at man's greed comes from French director Georges Franju (Eyes Without a Face), and has some really sick-ass bird-face masks! On top of that, the lead actor spent time in his life as a magician, which is something.

Speaking of Gawthornes, there's nothing inadvertent about our aim to discuss Intent to Kill. Traci Lords and Yaphet Kotto star in this low-budget sleazy LA crime flick, and almost manage to avoid looking like they were reading their lines on screen for the first time. But hey, sweet car crashes abound.

All this plus witty banter between friends, Grains of Mayonnaise, Characters explaining the titles, The biggest hands Parker has ever seen on a human, People who like capers, Keeping that Saw Theme Going, Yaphet Kotto's Subtle Toupee, Nerd News and This Week in DVD, awkward follow-ups, absolute confidentiality, continued lack of police involvement, sneezes, belches, gleeks and a whole lot more!

JFD262: Revenge of the Nerds, Takin' It All Off, Porky's

$

Sneak down to the basement, turn off all the lights and make sure your mom doesn't come down, because this week it's 80's Sex-Comedy Week on JFD!

Up first, we examine the movie that brought geek culture into the masses, Revenge of the Nerds from 1984. Directed by Jeff Kanew and starring a now classic line-up of nerds (Robert Carradine, Anthony Edwards, Curtis Armstrong, etc), it went on to be a staple in video stores and on cable TV in the 80's and 90's.

Next, we take a look at film heavy on the sex, but light on the comedy with Takin' It All Off from 1987. It's the sequel to Takin' It Off from 1985 and stars Kitten Natividad, Candie Evans and Becky LeBeau as our always-naked protagonists trying to raise money to keep their *ahem* "stripper school" afloat. Also making an appearance is George 'Buck' Flower, who also co-wrote and produced the flick.

And finally, we tackle another hallmark of the 80's video store/cable TV scene with Porky's from 1982. Seems like everyone in the world (except Parker) has seen this seminal teen comedy about a group of high school kids (Dan Monahan, Mark Herrier, Tony Ganios, etc) in the 50's who are desperate to get laid and try to infiltrate the local strip club/brothel; Porky's. This movie was directed by Bob Clark, the same guy who brought us Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things, Black Christmas and of course, A Christmas Story. 

All this plus witty banter between friends, credit card for t-shirt scams, The Memphis Maniac, homeless people masturbating in the library, Nerd News and This Week in DVD/Blu-rays, panty raid confessions, boob talk, butt talk, absolute confidentiality, continued lack of police involvement and a whole lot more!

Hey, Junkies! Here's our June calendar. We'll be delving into '80s and '90s Nostalgia... moreso that usual, I guess for a hot theme show. We'll also be discovering the hidden mysteries of the Yeti, perhaps solving the answer to the question, "What's a Bigfeetsmen doing out here in the foothills?" We've also got a hot theme show to celebrate all the dad's out there. We're finally doing every dad's favorite movies: '70s disaster flicks. There's also a couple loose, no-theme eps and whatnot. What do you think?
