| A Serbian Film (ft. lampyman101) | 19 Sep 2021 | 02:00:37 | |
It's the last episode of Season 3 and it's definitely not one to miss as I'm joined by Glenn Criddle, a.k.a. lampyman101. Glenn's the first YouTuber I subscribed to back in 2009 who talked about disturbing films, such as the Video Nasties. | |||
| Antichrist | 11 Aug 2021 | 02:26:06 | |
Whoever said you can have too much of a good thing clearly never listened to this show. I've brought Myroslava Hartmond back onto the show once again to talk about Antichrist and the films of Lars von Trier. | |||
| Grotesque | 28 Jul 2021 | 00:38:55 | |
I love talking about movies in depth as much as the next man, but sometimes it's more fun to do a quick review. On this episode, I'm covering a very nasty film, GROTESQUE by Koji Shiraishi. I'm a big fan of Shiraishi's early film, Noroi: The Curse - did I enjoy Grotesque? Listen to find out! | |||
| Audition | 18 Jul 2021 | 01:17:03 | |
I've talked about how Eli Roth was inspired by Audition, so why not go straight to the source? Myroslava Hartmond joins me on the show once again to talk about Takashi Miike's most famous film, and notorious disturbing movie. We talk about the differences from the book the film's based on, its gender politics and, of course, the infamous last 30 minutes. Torture porn starts here - even if the wrong lessons were taken from it. | |||
| Martyrs | 11 Jul 2021 | 01:03:41 | |
I watched Martyrs in 2009 and it left such an impression on me that I was scared to watch it again. What happened this time? Find out in this raw episode | |||
| Irreversible | 27 Jun 2021 | 01:27:18 | |
I've brought Myroslava Hartmond back on the show to talk about one of our favourite directors, Gaspar Noe. His most infamous film is Irreversible, a film which features one of the most harrowing rape scenes in film history. So a very very bad date movie then. There's a lot more to it though, as we discuss. One for fans of French cinema. | |||
| The Devil's Rejects | 16 Jun 2021 | 01:43:57 | |
It's the last of my Lionsgate series. On this episode, I'm reviewing The Devil's Rejects by Rob Zombie along with all of Rob Zombie's other films. As anyone who's listened to my podcasts before knows, I've never been a huge fan of Rob Zombie's films. So, this episode features THE TRIAL OF ROB ZOMBIE - featuring 5 charges regularly levelled against his films. Is he guilty? Let the trial begin! | |||
| Hostel | 06 Jun 2021 | 00:48:09 | |
In the second of my Lionsgate series, on this episode I'm reviewing HOSTEL by Eli Roth. Eli Roth isn't a director who's work I've enjoyed in the past - has that changed over time? Find out here, plus quick reviews of Hostel: Part 2 and Part 3 | |||
| Saw | 30 May 2021 | 01:50:07 | |
Tom Cannon joins me on this episode to talk about SAW, one of the biggest horror movies of the 2000s. Is it a bad date movie? No. Why am I reviewing it then? Good question. | |||
| Cargo 200 | 23 May 2021 | 01:12:04 | |
On the 8th anniversary of the passing of Aleksei Balabanov, I thought it was appropriate to review one of his best known - and most controversial - films, CARGO 200. | |||
| The August Underground Trilogy | 16 May 2021 | 01:09:46 | |
It's been a while, but I'm back with a brand new series of Worst Date Movies Ever! On the show today, I'm reviewing the August Underground trilogy directed by Fred Vogel. These are 3 of the most disturbing and controversial films of all time, so not a show for the faint hearted... | |||
| Romper Stomper | 04 Apr 2020 | 01:50:12 | |
On the show today, I've brought back Myroslava Hartmond to talk about one of her favourite movies of all time, Romper Stomper. This is the film that launched Russell Crowe from Australia into Hollywood stardom; making movies, making songs and fighting around the world! | |||
| Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS | 08 Mar 2020 | 01:14:16 | |
Tom Dennett-Cook is back on the podcast to talk about his favourite subject, Nazis. This time, we're reviewing the daddy (mummy?) of Nazisploitation movies - Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS. We dedicate this episode to Ilsa herself, Dyanne Thorne, who passed away earlier this year | |||
| Come and See | 18 Jan 2020 | 01:45:30 | |
One of my favourite kinds of movie is the Soviet war movie, and my favourite Soviet war movie is Come and See, so it made sense to bring Myroslava Hartmond back on the show to talk about it with me! | |||
| Freddy Got Fingered | 11 Aug 2019 | 00:52:49 | |
A very different kind of movie for the show today. Carl Rowland joins me to talk about Freddy Got Fingered; a movie which has been described as both the worst movie of all time and a Dadaist masterpiece: which is it? Is it a good or a bad date movie? How long do we stay on topic? How much does Carl hate DC? Find out here | |||
| Gutterballs | 10 Jul 2019 | 00:36:10 | |
I'm back after a short break to talk about Gutterballs: a Canadian slasher film that takes place at the world's emptiest bowling alley. If you like swearing, this is the film for you! | |||
| Zoo | 29 May 2019 | 00:42:37 | |
Do you love animals? Of course you do. But would you want to watch a documentary about people who love animals... a little too much? That's what I brought Tom Cannon back on the show to talk about. One for all the horse lovers out there! | |||
| Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom | 19 May 2019 | 01:06:17 | |
Tom Dennett-Cook is back on the show to talk about one of the most controversial and infamous films of all time, Pier Paolo Pasolini's Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom. Another one not to listen to while you're having dinner... | |||
| Excision | 09 May 2019 | 00:44:51 | |
I’m happy to be joined on the show by Lucy Buglass of the Lucy Goes to Hollywood blog and podcast to talk about Excision by Richard Bates Jr. If you like blood - and who doesn’t - this is the film for you. | |||
| Head-On | 29 Apr 2019 | 01:14:05 | |
Myroslava Hartmond is back on the podcast to talk with me about the film she makes all her dates watch: Head-On (Gegen die Wand) by Fatih Akin. Expect an in-depth discussion of Fatih Akin's career, impromptu singing, Nicolas Cage impressions, a total burial of City of Angels and much more. It's hitting another bar on your internal xylophone. | |||
| The Vomit Gore Trilogy | 21 Apr 2019 | 01:07:56 | |
**WARNING** - this episode of Worst Date Movies Ever is a review of Lucifer Valentine's infamous Vomit Gore trilogy: Slaughtered Vomit Dolls, ReGOREgitated Sacrifice, and Slow Torture Puke Chamber. In case it wasn't obvious enough, these films contain very adult themes, extreme gore and (of course) many instances of people vomiting. I strongly advise anyone likely to be upset by the content of this show not to listen. | |||
| The Hills Have Eyes | 20 Feb 2019 | 00:57:19 | |
In the last of the current series, I'm joined once again by Tom Dennett-Cook to talk about, not one, but two films. The film is The Hills Have Eyes, and we compare both films: the original directed by Wes Craven and the remake directed by Alexandre Aja. Which one do we prefer? Are they both bad date movies? Find out here. | |||
| The Piano Teacher | 10 Feb 2019 | 01:13:36 | |
It’s nearly Valentine's Day so what better way to celebrate the big day with your significant other than by watching a really bad date movie. Such as The Piano Teacher by Michael Haneke, which I watched with Myroslava Hartmond. | |||
| The ABCs of Death | 30 Jan 2019 | 00:47:28 | |
I brought Tom Cannon back on the show to talk about one of his favourite things, horror shorts. 26 horror shorts actually as we discuss The ABCs of Death. Featuring shorts by Adam Wingard, Ti West, Ben Wheatley and many more. Some we liked more than others. | |||
| The Evil Dead | 21 Jan 2019 | 00:57:04 | |
I have not one but two guests on this episode as myself, Tom Dennett-Cook and Scott Priestley review some obscure movie called The Evil Dead. It's one of the best horror movies of the 80s, the most famous video nasty and it launched the careers of both Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi. But, more importantly, is it a good date movie or a bad date movie? Featuring a guest appearance from my cat | |||
| Megan is Missing | 07 Jan 2019 | 00:37:19 | |
Happy New Year! Do you know where your children are right now? If you take "torture porn", found footage and an after school special and put them in a blender, you get Megan Is Missing. I was surprised how notorious this film was online, especially the last 20 minutes, so I had to see what the fuss was all about for myself. | |||
| The Beast in Heat | 19 Dec 2018 | 00:46:36 | |
Experience the best gift you can get this festive season: myself and Tom Dennett-Cook “reviewing” - actually, mostly laughing at the ineptness of - The Beast in Heat. Make no mistake, this is movie is both terribly made and morally reprehensible, but it’s also hilarious. Enjoy! | |||
| Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky | 09 Dec 2018 | 01:00:47 | |
Really fun show today as me and Scott Priestley talk about one of the goriest movies ever made, Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. Possibly the only review in history to mention both Ordet and Mac and Me. | |||
| The Asthenic Syndrome | 28 Nov 2018 | 00:57:47 | |
I am joined by the managing director of the Triptych art gallery, Myroslava Hartmond, to discuss The Asthenic Syndrome directed by the late Kira Muratova. Muratova is one of the great overlooked directors in the history of cinema so hopefully this will increase awareness of her work. | |||
| The Holy Mountain | 15 Nov 2018 | 00:38:46 | |
Can a movie be too weird to be a good date movie? That's what me and Tom Dennett-Cook discuss on this episode of Worst Date Movies Ever as we review Alejandro Jodorowsky's The Holy Mountain. | |||
| The Human Centipede | 04 Nov 2018 | 01:01:18 | |
You get three films for the price of one on this episode as myself and Tom Cannon review all three Human Centipede films: First Sequence, Full Sequence and Final Sequence. Surely, all three are terrible date movies? - at least that's what Tom Six would want you to think. Plus, stick around until the end for bonus No Holds Barred! | |||
| Cannibal Holocaust | 19 Oct 2018 | 00:50:55 | |
Welcome to the worst date movies ever! On this episode, I’m joined by Tom Dennett-Cook to discuss Cannibal Holocaust: one of the most infamous video nasties of all time. Considering everything that happens, this surely has to be one of the worst date movies ever? | |||
