In this week's episode the FM3 are back in the space saddle!

Jef, Josh and Brian are going back to College and the poison that was choison for them was 2015's indie comedy/horror flick "Dude Bro Party Massacre 3"!

In this week's episode, The FM3 dig into the 2011 Survival Horror film "The Grey". This was picked by a top level Patreon Patron and is one that Jef, Josh and Brian did not have on their planes radar. That said, they happily welcomed a film with some top shelf actors and a story that Chuck Band didn't produce! So gather round the fire cause this is…

In this episode the FM3 get into some lesser known territory, that of an Academy Award winning horror film. One of Forever Midnight's Top Dawg Patreon Patrons paid the big bucks and made Jef, Josh and Brian watch and review 1991's Silence Of the Lambs. Historically the crew rarely watch any movie with an IMDB rating above a 6, but holy Hannibal shi…

In this episode it is Josh's pick and he finally suggested a movie the crew has talked about watching for forever, 1990's "SYNGENOR"! This kinda sideways sequel to the 1980's "Scared to Death" shares the same monster design and lack of money as the original but that is about it. Josh was so excited and couldn't wait to talk about this one so Jef an…

In this episode Jef picked a flick for the crew that he has been wanting to check out forever, 1994's "Night Of The Demons 2"! The FM3 talked about the original Night Of The Demons way back on episode #73: Halloween Quig-out! (Night Of The Demons & The Barn), so check that one out if you are curious, the guys may have talked a lot of shit but at th…

In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian decide to keep riding the Werewolf train and pull Howling 2: Your Sister is a Werewolf off the VHS shelf at the studio. What better way to enjoy a sequel to one of the all time classic werewolf flicks than on videocassette with your buds?! Soon after the FM3 realized something was off, everything went dark - Is i…

In this episode one of the incredible Top Wolf's from Patreon chose one of Jef, Josh and Brian's collective favorites "An American Werewolf In London"! It is insane that the FM3 have not done a proper episode on what might be the best Werewolf movie ever. All it took was a wonderful Patreon Patron putting up some hard earned cash to make the crew w…

In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian figured since they just watched and talked about The Wolf Man (2010), why not check out Wolf Man (2025) that just hit theaters?!? What is the worst that could happen? Could this film actually be good? Could this film bring something new to the screen that folks have yet to see in a wolf man movie? Mayhaps, but yo…

In this episode the FM3 dive head first into the folk horror madness that is "The Wicker Man"! But what better way to do that than by watching "The Wicker Man" (1973) back to back with "The Wicker Man" (2006)!! Sure we got slightly forced by a top dawg Patron into watching both of these, sorta like being pushed into a burning wicker dude effigy, bu…

In this episode Brian finally picks a personal fave of his " The Wolfman" (2010) much to the chagrin of Jef and Josh.

However, Brian is in for a rude awakening, much like waking up after a lo…

TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual Assault/Abuse/Missing Children In this episode the FM3 Talk about the bleak and cold film Possum from 2018. Brian picked this one for the group thinking it was going to be a scary supernatural puppet adventure but it ended up being far darker and more horrible than he or the rest of the crew could imagine. All in all it is a…

In this episode, the FM3 were very excited to hop back in the theater for the last big horror film of 2024 with Robert Eggers Nosferatu! This most recent remake of the 102 year old classic had Jef, Josh and Brian very curious as to what new things were going to be brought to the table. Would it be a cookie cutter re-do or would it be a new fangled …

In this episode the FM3 DIVE into a horror film from 1982 that none of the crew had seen or for that matter even heard of called "BLOODTIDE" starring James Earl Jones, Martin Kove, Deborah Shelton and more!

What's up, Rotters! This week, we're coming to you with a bonus episode from the Patreon vault. Earlier this year, Mike Muncer joined me to discuss the wonderfully sleazy, late 80s slasher/thriller OUT OF THE DARK and as a little early Xmas treat, I'm giving you a prezzie in the form of one of my favourite episodes in recent history. For nearly 150…

In this episode Jef coaxes Josh and Brian into watching a mystery movie together. Not sure what their fate holds they agree although slightly weary of the 90's pick they are sure is coming. However once all together Jef poses a question: What if there was a horror movie that was like ET & Poltergeist smooshed together, would Josh and Brian be inter…

What's up, Rotters! This week, I'm joined by two of my favourite guests Joe La Scola and Sean O'Rourke aka Movie Dumpster to discuss the TROMA trashterpice GIRLS SCHOOL SCREAMERS (1986) Although not originally a TROMA produced movie, once Lloyd and the gang got their hands on it, they made sure to add some unmistakable TROMA touches such as worms, …

What's up, Rotters! Class is back in session Today, Vicious Varsity continues after our two week hiatus to discuss the 1988 H.P.
