There’s something ironic about reviewing a film due to its titular tie in to beaches only to discover upon viewing that it takes place almost entirely in snowy Colorado. After Jim apologizes for that, he implores the Internet to help...
We’re covering a weird, ambitious movie, so it’s only fitting that we’ve got a weird, ambitious episode. Jay Alary from Grumpire and Daily Grindhouse joins The Cast of Cthulhu to discuss Tobe Hooper’s Lifeforce, the first of a 3-picture deal and a weird, ambitious failure of a sci-fi...
We went into The Empty Man expecting a subpar knockoff of the Slender Man story and were we delightfully surprised to see that it was anything but! Receiving a similar fate to another overlooked horror film that Disney unceremoniously dumped after acquiring Fox, this...
Sincerest apologies for both the episode delay (life stuff) and audio quality of Jim’s vocal track (forgot mic due to life stuff), but if you’re able to forgive us for those hiccups, we are excited to have Council of Zoom‘s Kieran...

Gavin Mevius, co-host of The Mixed Reviews joins us to talk about Cast a Deadly Spell, the made-for-TV movie from 1991 that asks us all to imagine a world where anyone can use magic, but with one hard-boiled detective named Harry Philip Lovecraft (Fred...
Before we get into reviewing the not quite Lovecraftian Cold Skin, we’ve got some real eldritch horrors to discuss. Cut rate Corman clone Charles Band – yeah, him – is producing a sequel to From Beyond called Miskatonic U: The Resonator and there are behind the scenes photos to feast...
