The year ends. The boys ramble under the influence of eggnog. They briefly touch on 2023’s “Brooklyn 45”, which is roughly 45.45% as funny as “Brooklyn 99”. Gonna be honest with you, if you’re looking for hard facts, not a lot of that here. If you’re looking for para-social relationships though, well, that’s most of this episode. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

30 days of night? More like 30 days of BITE, AMIRITE??? This high concept 2007 vampire film was based on the equally high concept 2003 comic series, which was in turn was based on an earlier unproduced high concept movie script. That’s Hollywood baby! Also, to clear things up, JR was thinking of WHITNEY Huston and Derek was thinking of ANGELA Basset. Thank you for coming to our TED Talk.

Thanksgiving is past. Christmas is future. Alien: Earth, Day of the Beast, Predator: Badlands, Dog Soldiers, Arcadian, Flux Gourmet, Keeper, “Where are you going, where have you been”, The Running Man. Roundups are always.

When we say not every horror movie deserves to be talked about for a whole episode, we really mean MOST horror movies don’t deserve a full episode. Some, like V/H/S/Halloween, HIM, Longlegs, Frankenstein, Night of the Reaper, The Long Walk, IT: Welcome to Derry, and Habit, deserve about 7.6 minutes a piece. And that’s a roundup episode for you.

If you’ve come here for thoughts on the 2022 Andy Mitton film ‘The Harbinger’, you are in luck. If you’ve come to hear two guys in their 40’s who never actually looked at the word “Harbinger” and think it’s ok to pronounce it as “HarBRINGer” or “HarBINger” rather than “HarBUNger”, you are also in luck. If you’ve come because you accidentally watched the 2022 Will Klipstine film “The Harbinger”, we sympathize, but we’re talking about Andy Mitton film, because, as we all know, there’s no quittin’ on Mitton.

When you’re banging through usually pretty meh movie after movie for a podcast, coming across a 77 minute film is a welcome respite. Even better is when that 77 minute film is actually a good movie, like 2018’s ‘The Witch in the Window’, the film that JR has been praising for the past 300+ episodes. Give it a watch, give us a listen, because, as we all know, there’s no quittin’ on Mitton.

Did you know the furthest you can be from a road in New Hampshire is 4.4 miles? Nobody tell that to the cosmic entity in 2010’s ‘YellowBrickRoad’, the first in our series of Andy Mitton related films. That’s right, the thing JR has been talking about for the past 9 years is finally happening, because, as we all know, there’s no quittin’ on Mitton.

You can shout in three different ways: by letting it all out, by kicking your heels up, or by watching 1978’s ‘The Shout’. We’ve been hearing about this one for years, but like so many movies these days it’s a real pain in the ass to find a decent copy, so we settled for a pretty meh quality stream. The lack of movie availability in this foul year of our lord 2025 makes me so mad that I want to… complain loudly.
