Basket Case 2 with guest Nathan Herbert
On this episode we are bringing you one more gruesome 2-some episode, and this time it’s in a BASKET. That’s right, we talk about that maniacal duo Duane and Belial making a return in Frank Henenlotter’s follow up to the gritty, lo-fi, unhinged splatter masterpiece Basket Case. Basket Case 2 introduces a whole menagerie of new oddballs, mutants and weirdos to accompany our reprised anti-heroes. It’s a real Nightbreed for nitwits here, folks. And we brought our friend Nathan Herbert from the Demolisten Podcast back on to have a laugh about it. Our featured band for this episode is Finland’s ancient death metal ghouls Belial with the track “For Them”.

Flixtober: Psycho II
It's that special time of year again: you guessed it! Our annual Flixtober series is now in full swing. This year, we are doing a rundown of some of our favorite sequels, but not just any sequels. This series is loosely titled "The Terrible Twos" as we are focusing specifically on the second installment in notable franchises. We are kicking things off with a movie we have been meaning to talk about on the pod for quite some time: 1983's follow up to the legendary Hitchcock grandad slasher "Psycho". Norman gets busted from the nut house after 22 years and is just trying to be "normal Norman". But there are folks in the town of Fairvale that have machinations to put our rehabilitated protagonist back in the funny farm. What's a poor boy to do, mother? This episodes featured band is legendary Italian death thrashers Schizo with the song "Manifold Hallucinations".

The Terminator with guest Antonio Marquez
Hey all! It's been a while, but we were on a mission to save the human race in the future and we had to figure out which woman we had to impregnate with the savior of the world here in the present! Needless to say, it's been very frustrating. You didn't think we'd be back, but... On this episode of Midnight Flix, we step a little out of our intended mission statement and discuss a movie which is surely universally recognized as a classic: Jame's Cameron's sci-fi opus "The Terminator". We brought on Antonio Marquez from KCxHC stalwarts Spine to discuss the movie that has become synonymous with our collective fear of being put under the boot of our machine overlords. Morris, You Fucks also makes an appearance on the pod. This episode's featured band is Candy Apple with the track "World For Sale".  Drop us a line at midnightflixpod@gmail.com and give us a follow on Instagram and TikTok @midnightflixpodcast. Rate, review, and let us know how you REALLY feel.

Cyborg
On this episode, we discuss Albert Pyun's 1989 Mad Max/Terminator knock -off flick, "Cyborg", featuring a fresh faced Belgian martial arts master, Jean-Claude Van Damme, on the cusp of taking the action cinema world by storm. Playing the vagabond "slinger" Gibson Rickenbacker, our hero takes on a small army of other musically monickered dystopian raiders (lead by the psychotically imposing Fender Tremolo) in a mission to get a seemingly pointless cyborg to safety to transmit information that will re-civilize a plague ravaged post-apocalyptic world. Our featured band for this episode is Prescott, AZ's Ugly with the track "In My Pocket" off their lastest album "Autograph".

Q: The Winged Serpent
Hard to believe it took this long, but we finally discuss our first Larry Cohen movie on the pod! We go back to 1982 and talk about Mr. Cohen's fantastic homage to the big monster movie: Q The Winged Serpent. It features a star-studded cast of top shelf performances by David Carradine, Richard Roundtree, and Michael Moriarity delivering a masterclass performance in method acting as Quinn the bumbling small time crook. And of course, the winged serpent itself, turning the unsuspecting denizens of New York into a three course meal, while nesting atop the Chrysler building. Our featured band for this episode is New York's own filth blasters, Gravesend, with the track "Methods of Human Disposal".

Westworld
On this episode of Midnight Flix, we discuss Michael Crichton's seminal sci-fi thriller about machines gone amok: that's right, its 1973's "Westworld". We ask questions such as: are geniuses actually really idiots? what is it like getting robot poontang? why have failsafe guns, but not failsafe dynamite? It's a real rip snorter of a ride, so you better tune in...or YUL be sorry.   This episodes featured band is Stomach with the song "Bleached".
