We have hit the 80’s!!
Do you remember the 80s? Breakdancing, New Wave, mullets and more importantly, for your intrepid hosts, movies. Nothing encapsulated the teen angst and the hardships of relationships quite like a John Hughes movie. Bill and Chris take some time away from all of their goofball antics to reflect back on how John Hughes affected their lives. Of course, this is done in the form of a top six list.
Mercifully, just before Chris gets all misty, they delve into their first review; Troma’s teen sex romp comedy, “The First Turn-On!” from 1983. Written by Georgia Harrell and Michael Herz, this flick is directed by none other than Michael Herz Lloyd Kaufman. In an anthology style of storytelling, we get to see how each of the main characters lost their virginity.

Then, we move on to 1973’s Detroit 9000. Directed by Arthur Marks from a script by Orville H. Hampton, Detroit 9000 shines a light on the political and social climate, framed around fundraiser for an African American’s Gubernatorial campaign.

Episode #79 Solange is Out There
Is this the week friends? Has Bill By Force finally picked a Giallo that will not infuriate Mr. Chris? You will have to listen to find out.
The films covered this week are “What Have You Done To Solange?” and “There’s Nothing Out There.”
First up is 1992’s “There's Nothing Out There.” Written and directed by Rolfe Kanefsky, this is the story of a group of teens (Teens? Really? O.K. whatever…) that try to spend a nice relaxing weekend in a cabin in the woods. Unbeknownst to them, a voracious alien has crashed the party. Fortunately, Mike is well versed in all horror movie scenarios. But, will that be enough?

Next we have 1972’s “Cosa avete fatto a Solange?” a.k.a “What Have You Done to Solange?” Based on the novel "The Clue of the New Pin" by Edgar Wallace, the screenplay was written by Bruno Di Geronimo and Massimo Dallamano who also directed the film. This Giallo, set in London tells the story of a group of grisly murders. Something connects all of the victims together, but what is it? Can the police and Enrico 'Henry' Rosseni figure it out in time?
