Mockbusters – Details, episodes & analysis

Here we are again, at the finale of another season of Mockbusters!

Although the result may already be written in ink, there's still plenty of drama at the end of it all, as Jack & Matt take on Disaster Movies.
Joining us for this apocalyptic ending is journalist, movie guru and host on Clash of the Titles podcast with Alex Zane and Vicky Crompton - it's Chris Tilly!
We chat to Chris about his favourite ever movie match ups on Clash of the Titles, his thoughts on Disaster Movies and Chris poses us the ultimate question: Is there a dog in danger in your movies?

So head down into the Mockbusters bunker ready to weather the storm for one last time.
An ocean of optimism, a barrage of Butlers and Jack is awarded his custom made victory song under a burning sky.

A massive thank you to Chris for joining us this week, don't forget to check out his work on the socials @tillytweets and go and listen to Clash of the Titles here - https://stakhanov.studio/shows/clash-of-the-titles/

Because we knew that you just couldn't get enough of internet chatrooms, grotty erotica and more - we thought we'd give you some bonus chat from last episode.
We didn't want to cut anything because Poppy was a delight to talk to, but this is some extended conversation featuring Hypnotist chatrooms, which came first - the podcast or the chatrooms and what Poppy would do if she had Bernard's Watch.
Enjoy!

A merry holiday season one and all!
In this one off festive special, Jack & Matt will team up to create the ultimate Christmas movie!
This time, they'll be creating their first ever full story, with not a trailer to be found.
With special requests from a plethora of past Mockbusters guests, join the boys as they unwrap a sackful of weird and wacky demands and create an audio experience that promises to be unforgettable.

Santa has his work cut out for him at Christmastime, but what if someone with a very similar name could lend a hand in...

DECK THE HELLS.

Mockbusters will return with a second season in the New Year, but in the meantime, make sure to follow us on social media on @mockbusterspod and get all your title and genre requests to us on mockbusterspodcast@gmail.com

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and masses of love to you all.

In the final episode of Mockbusters Season 1, the films may be in Black & White but the final result certainly isn't, as the boys venture into the smoky backstreets of Film Noir.
In a Mockbusters first, we are joined this week by our first returning judge, the timelessly charming Tiffany Clare!
With some chaotic producer behaviour, our first ever real life sequel and more pigs than you can shake a stick at, this is sure to be the ointment to your autumn blues (or should that be oinkment?).
Who will Tiffany choose as this week's Mockbuster? Will the final result be taken to an agonising draw? Will someone take home the inaugural Season 1 trophy?
IT'S TIME TO FIND OUT.

In the penultimate episode of Season 1 of Mockbusters, the boys are tied at 4-4 and embark on a fantastic voyage into the world of Super Heroes.
This week they are joined by Welsh funny man Sean Rhys James - who is faced with an iconic team up, some powerless heroes and Gilbert Gottfried's new brand of cereal.
Who will push into the lead ahead of the last episode by taking home the title of Mockbuster?
Many thanks to Sean Rhys James for joining us this week, you can find him at @seanrhys_james @WelshSketchShow @NowInAMinProds and check out his show Desert Island Laughs on Youtube!

It's a very special episode this week with the boys taking a departure from films into the world of Video Games!
This week, they'll each get their own game genre and a selection of titles and just a couple of ideas to pitch a game idea to an industry professional.
Joining them this week is Not Games Director and Creative Founder, Alex Paterson!
So with greek gods, post jobs and an incredibly distressing new controller for one of the titles, who will be crowned the winner of the first ever video games episode?

Many thanks to Alex Paterson, and you can find his game Not For Broadcast on Steam for Windows via the link below:

This week, things really get thrilling on Mockbusters.
And not only in the genres do things get exciting, we're also joined by our first pair of guest judges!
Joined by Sam Sheldon & Howard Grater of the wonderfully silly Literal Literature Podcast - things get historical, nonsensical and start plain taking the piss.
Find out what happens when your actors all have stage fright and what really became of Marty McFly during the American Civil War.

Massive thanks to Sam & Howard for joining us this week, you can Literal Literature Podcast on social media at @LiteralLitPod and you can listen to their podcast below (we highly recommend it!):

In Episode 6 of Mockbusters, it all gets a bit futuristic. 
From intergalatic geriatrics to celtic genocide, in space no one can hear you scream.
Joined by a self confessed sci-fi lover, the multitalented actor and musician Dylan Allcock!

An old vendetta from a previous episode comes back to haunt one of our hosts with a brutal demand, will they be able to rise to the painful occasion?

Caution: May contain scenes difficult for Welsh people.

Many thanks again to our guest, Dylan Allcock, you can find him on @dylanallcock on social media and Sound Cloud and you can find Isaac Saddlesore and the Curse of Nebet below:

Bird violence, Westerns & greasy naked men; just a few of Stephanie McGuinness's favourite things.
This week, the boys have probably their hardest combination of titles and genre to date.
As they take a foray into the world of the Wild West, things take a turn for the dirtier and greasier as an unexpected result leaves one of our hosts irate.

Many thanks to Stephanie McGuinness for joining us this week, you can find her at @stephanieeemcg on socials, and you can find her wonderful podcast Got Baggage on iTunes and Spotify and at @gbaggagepodcast on socials!
