Just an update.  We aren't dead, just problems of a new job and other facts of life getting in they way.  We hope to be back by 10/8/09.  Thank you for your support.

On the show this week:

-I Made This

-Something Vaguely Entertaining

The Boy starts our show off with a blast, Largo brings the cellphone noise, and Sanguinist brings up the new contest between the corpses of Michael Jackson and James Brown.

Getting on topic, Sanguinist tells us of the quest (and probibility) of creating an artificial life form and tells us of the practical applications. And we quickly diverge from there into thinking with our dipsticks, artificial orgasms, and the dangers of recording with cats.

We then digress into the recent court ruling that forced Pandora to start charging for service. Listen and be amazed as the RIAA shoots itself in the foot again. Sanguinist also plugs an open source RPG called Eclipse Phase and The Boy tells how the New York City Skank bought Google low.

The crew the catches up with two weeks' worth of Chiller premiers. Listen in horror as we cover Scar (the shot-on-video, Joe Estevez starring, Photoshop special effects using piece of tripe), Asylum Presents: Death Valley: The Revenge of Bloody Bill (an odd fusion of Western and zombie film), and Grizzly Park (a horror film with the most ridiculous soundtrack ever heard. And more pissing scenes that a fetish film.) Largo also reminisces about ads for Creep Phone, Sanguinist bitches about Eastern Standard Time, and we invite you to join us on Twitter every Friday night at 10:00 to tweet about crappy Chiller movies. We also preview next week's gem, Dead Mary.

On the show this week:

-Give Me Rock and Roll or Give Me Death

-Get in My Belly!

-Something Vaguely Entertaining

We start with doped-up The Boy trying to supplement his post-surgery voice with electronically. That works ever so well. And please forgive Largo's lack of volume, Sanguinist's varying volume, and The Boy's overwhelming volume (and belching.) We all recorded into the same box this week, so our ability to make adjustments was limited.

Largo starts us out by bitching about the death of WQWK, the last modern rock station in his market. Moreover, the head honchos decided to kill Qwk Rock so that it could be replaced with a conservative talk radio station. Brilliant move. Suck it, Forever Broadcasting.

After we introduce our newest character, Viking Dan, Sanguinist then moves us on to the sad tale of a mother who, suffering from postpartum depression, killed and ate her baby after Satan told her to. This leads into using Karl Rove as an ambassador to Hell and how Jon Stewart can use his rep as a comedian to be more effective than some real reporters.

Prepare then for the onslaught of crap thanks to the Chiller network. Spoilers, such as they are, abound as we look at Warriors of Terra, a film that involved no warriors but did at least take place underground, and Asylum Presents: Shapeshifter, which can certainly not be faulted for lack of truth in the name. The first film combines the worst of the 'base under siege' film with the over-mined genre of the 'faux-Japanese creepy pale girl with ill defined powers that moves in a creepy, unnatural way and kills you.' Add in the fact that only every fifth frame was actually lit and a cast of completely stereotypical caricatures (and Eddie Furlong) and you get a completely useless exercise that makes some SyFylitic Originals look good. On the plus side, it does give us a new element, Handwavium, the Anti-Zeist. Our second film manages to look better in comparison despite starting with (blurred) breasts, proving again the rule that if you see tits in the first five minutes, the film's gonna suck. This gem features wooden acting couples with stereotypical characters (that are, admittedly, a little better than the last film's), Romanian gangsters that speak in Russian, a prison full of nice criminals, a monster that looks like the bunny suit from Donnie Darko, a ton of tropes that are set up that the film fails to pay off, and a gas chamber that kills people by using natural gas. On the plus side, it's better lit that Warriors of Terra, and Sanguinist proves that one could take a nap in the middle of the film and miss nothing important.

On the less sucktastic side, we then look at G.I. Joe, which we all found pretty entertaining. Not spectacular, mind, but entertaining. Explosions, poor science, and big, a spoiler or two, and some dumb fun abound.

And if you can hear him, Largo closes the show with a look at Human Alliance Bumblebee, a pretty spiffy Transformer on a larger scale than the deluxe class that comes with a slightly dopey looking Shia LaBeouf figure.

On the show this week:

-Play Nice, Kids
-It's Not Me, It's You
-You Got Your Bioweapon in My Hand Sanitizer...
-Put Down the Controller, Pick Up the Crack Pipe
-Something Vaguely Entertaining

Welcome to our most alcohol fueled episode in a while. Listen and be amazed at the fluidity of out hosts as we discuss Islands in the Stream of poop, how, like the Hoff, we're huge in Germany, the iDong, the SVR crew's drinking tolerance, how various vampires might vamp for time (which leads off into a discussion of how Twilight and Laural K. Hamilton have royally screwed up the supernatural fiction market), and our various experiences with kidney stones. And all of this before we even get into our first topic.

We start out (finally) with the (since debunked) rumor that the bosses at both Newscorp and G.E., owner of NBC and MSNBC, brokered a deal to end the feud between Keith Olbermann and Bill O'Reily. We also touch on the controversy about MSNBC still using Richard Wolfe even though he's become an advertised lobbyist without that being made explicitly obvious. We also comment on the relative quality of Olbermann's other fill-in hosts.

Sanguinist then gives us a look at why the Pittsburgh Pirates have sucked for most of the last two decades (and will likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future.) This also bleeds out into a discussion of the other sports that Sanguinist likes before moving on to talking about cooking (and we introduce the SVR Chalupacabra!)

We then make a mountain out of a molehill by giving a conspiracy theory about a batch of hand sanitizer recalled and destroyed because it was contaminated by a 'dangerous bacteria.' Sanguinist speculates that it may have be flesh eating bacteria (and we introduce our new band, Stephlococcus, and their debut album, PyroGenesis.) We also explore the wonderful world of necrotic venom.

The Boy gives us a study that suggests a possible reason for the failure of the video game industry to fall as far, economically, as had been expected; namely, that video games are an addiction. The Boys says, “No shit.” We also reveal the secret of the SVR Stinger and challenge the Mythbusters to use an XBox with the Red Ring of Death to cook ramen. The Boy then gives us a look at the demo of the new Call of Duty and Sanguinst gives us his views on Fallout 3. This somehow leads into another wrestling discussion focusing on Bobby Lashly's move to TNA.

We close out the show with a review of Feast, another horror film that was far better than it deserved to be. Spoilers abound as we show how this movie turns more than a few horror movie tropes on their heads.

On the docket this week:

-Something Vaguely Entertaining

We begin the show with the concept of frosting a cake with napalm-poo and dogs selling organs before moving on to the twelve mile patch of Stephen King-esque goo hovering about Alaska's coast. We predict it'll be about a week before we get a SyFylitic Original Movie in the works.

Largo then gives a small review of Shout Factory's super special Matrix of Leadership collector's box set of Transformers: The Complete Series before we sneak some science into the show by talking about some interesting tech-savvy, migratory ants.

Largo gets us back into the entertainment portion of the show by bitching about the misnomer of Watchmen: The Ultimate Edition, released this holiday season, that will fail to contain the bonus features that are included on the Director's Cut that has just been released. And The Boy condones illegal activities before digressing on to a game called Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! Largo then digresses further by talking about Amazon's exclusive version of Batman: Arkham Asylum (and Sanguinist lets us know how to get free night-vision goggles with another game before digressing even further by telling us the sad tale of the Hanging Judge statue from Pinnacle.)

Switching gears, we talk a bit about how great it would be to have Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg make an Indiana Jones movie (and talk a bit about how any of the Indy movies have bits in them as unbelievable as the Fridge Nuke from Crystal Skull) before moving on to reviewing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Give a listen to see what we liked (or not.) Note: for a change, we manage to avoid any heavy spoilers (though we do earn our explicit rating yet again. We also inquire about Ben Franklin and dead hookers, just for good measure.)

We close the show by comparing Midnight Meat Train and Splinter, the two horror films we took in over the week. Listen and hear how the former differs from the Clive Barker story it is based on (and revel in the cheeseball, over the top CGI gore) and how the latter is far better than it has any right to be. We also run down what we consider to be good Barker adaptations and how Sanguinist came to give Millennium a second chance. As a warning, unlike with Harry, spoilers abound in this segment.
