Fun Box Monster Podcast #237 : Cobra (1986)

Jan 23 2025 99 mins  
Crime is the disease, he's the cure. He's going to inoculate society with a vaccine made of bullets. He's putting a cast on society's broken leg. A cast of punching. He's going to treat society's plantar fasciitis by pouring gas on it and setting it on fire. Matt and Tristan watch the Cannon films masterpiece, Cobra.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #234 Head Hunter (1988)

Dec 06 2024 83 mins  
Evil Dead wind travels from Africa to Florida (Actually still Africa) to pop the heads off some folks who are just trying to enjoy their Voodoo in peace. Also, a guy is going through a divorce. Surprisingly more is said about that than the head popping.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #233 The Laughing Dead (1989)

Nov 22 2024 83 mins  
Not to crib a more successful podcast's thing, but I honestly can't figure out how this got made. I don't hate it, but it is so deeply weird, and I believe there are no more than 2 actual professional actors in it. Also it has better SFX than movies with fifty million dollar budgets. Truly inexplicable, but worth checking out.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #232 Ghoulies 4 (1994)

Nov 15 2024 86 mins  
I only have one major problem with Ghoulies 4. There aren't even four Ghoulies. Haters will say there aren't even two Ghoulies, and that two actors in halloween masks don't count as little rubber monsters, but that isn't for me to say. Matt and Tristan discuss Ghoulies 4.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #231 Troll (1986)

Nov 08 2024 70 mins  
Everybody wants to see Phil Fondacaro turned into a Ghoulie, and there's no other movie where you can see it.

Oct 25 2024 101 mins

Fun Box Monster Podcast #229 Sleepwalkers (1992)

Oct 18 2024 105 mins  
The story of a Were-cat and her son, and nothing else super creepy or off-putting.

Fun Box Monster Podcast #228 Rumplestiltskin (1995)

Oct 11 2024 104 mins  
The classic story of a cursed item shop where the proprietor doesn't want to sell items, shouldn't sell items, and does anyway, then gets mad that you bought them. It's probably a metaphor for capitalism somehow, but I haven't quite figured it out yet.
