Strong Language & Violent Scenes Podcast

Happy Monday! We're past the midpoint in January and it's fair to say we're well and truly back into the swing of things. So without further ado, we give you MINISODE 135!  Topics this week include Andy and Mitch's trips to the Arrow Video Channel to check out THE BLOODHOUND and BLOOD RAGE respectively, while Mitch digs into Jaume Collet-Serra's HOUSE OF WAX and new Netflix arrival DISAPPEARANCE AT CLIFTON HILL. Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below...  We also announce the film for this week's main episode... In addition to all this, we dig into your posts and messages in the Feedback section and tell you what you should be watching as we look at what's arriving on streaming platforms this week!   Please note that this podcast may contain strong language and even str

What a week it's been. Riots at the US Capitol, Trump impeached for a second time, COVID rampaging unchecked across the globe and NOW we are here to ruin your childhoods and a beloved children's favourite (which is actually pure nightmare fuel). It's EPISODE 133 This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the writer and star of DOUBLE DATE... It's DANNY MORGAN!  The film? Return To Oz!  Hailing from the hazy, crazy halcyon days of 1985, Disney and director Walter Murch got together and made a sequel (of sorts) to 1939's classic THE WIZARD OF OZ and, on the surface at least, this should've been a gimme. A technicolor wonderland filed with fun, vibrant characters, lighthearted musical numbers and musings on the nature of courage, love, intelligence and friendship.  Instead, what we got is a nihilistic, bleak view of a war-ravaged Oz, filled with nightmarish imagery and scenes to haunt your dreams.  As you can imagine, it didn't do great...  The synopsis is as follows: Dorothy discovers s

2020 has gone but it has left a massive dump on the doorstep of 2021 and we now find ourselves in yet another COVID related lockdown while the USA burns. Its a wild time. Well, fear not. The wheels of content keep spinning with MINISODE 134!  Topics this week include Shudder Exclusive FINGERS and Jim Cummings' THE WOLF OF SNOW HOLLOW. Plus, we have the next entry in Andy's side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with the Jaws-alike ORCA: THE KILLER WHALE! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below...  We also announce the film for this week's main episode... In addition to all this, we dig into your posts and messages in the Feedback section and tell you what you should be watching as we look at what's arriving on streaming platforms this week!   Plea

Welcome to this, the first episode of 2021. Nice to see it's got off to such a quiet start... SO, let's have a laugh! This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined once again by the writer/podcaster behind ZOBO WITH A SHOTGUN... It's the inimitable ZOE ROSE SMITH!  The film? Repo! The Genetic Opera!  The last time that Zobo joined us, it was to talk TEETH! Now, she's back for somethin totally different! Darren Lynn Bousman's rock musical, Repo! The Genetic Opera! Andy isn't a fan but what do YOU think? The synopsis is as follows: In the mid-21st century, an epidemic of organ failures leads to the rise of GeneCo., a company providing transplants at a great price. Those who miss their payments become targets of GeneCo. mercenaries, who repossess the organs. In a world of drug addiction and legalized murder, a sheltered youth seeks a cure for her rare disease as well as information about her family's mysterious history. Her questions are answered at "The Genetic Opera." Please note that t

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Well folks, we made it. 2020 is in our rearview, and it's time to look to the future and hope against hope that we've got some brighter days ahead in 2021.  HOWEVER! Some things never change, and we're back with our first minisode of the year! Topics include Mitch exorcising the demons of a long-held childhood fear and checking out DEATH BECOMES HER, while both he and Andy take a look at Netflix original new release SPREE. Elsewhere, nature continues to go wild as Andy heads to the Arrow Video Channel on Amazon to take a long look at STING OF DEATH! Elsewhere, we take a look at your feedback, check out some of your year end messages and look back on some of our festive watchalong debauchery. Needless to say, there's also the first MITCH'S PITCHES of 2021, that may pack a twist of its own... We've also got a look ahead to a strong week on the streaming platforms and, needless to say, our guest and film announcement for Friday's main episode! Please note that this podcast may contain strong

Well, we did hint that we weren't quite done with 2020, so ahead of tomorrow night's Zoom free-for-all watchalong, we return to the microphones one last time to look back on a tumultuous twelve months - it's end of year list time! In Bonusode 15, we each select our top five episodes and films of the year, as well as shooting through some honourable mentions and giving some shout outs to friends, colleagues and companies who have worked incredibly hard to bring us so much amazing horror content this year. We'd like to thank everyone who has taken the time out to listen to, support or appear on the show in 2020, and while we can't mention everyone individually, your kindness, time and generosity has been so appreciated, and has allowed us to grow in a way that we weren't sure would be possible this year. We have no intention of slowing down and hope you'll stick with us for a little while longer... Please note that this podcast may contain strong language and even stronger Scottish accents.  Also, why n

We will return with a Minisode at midnight on Monday, 4th January. So, we end the year as we did last year, with an Andy and Mitch episode and a film that blew Mitch's perceptions wide open! The chosen film? Santas's Slay! Santa's Slay is currently available to rent on Amazon Prime.  The synopsis is as follows:  After a millennium of spreading Christmas cheer, Santa Claus (Bill Goldberg) reverts to his demonic self and gives the gift of fear.

Well, that was the year that was. 2020 is fading in the rear-view mirror and soon it will be forgotten. THIS is the last Minisode of this cursed year. We will be back THIS FRIDAY with Episode 131 and then we will be back in your feeds from Monday 4th January, 2021! So, without further ado, Minisode 132 - The Last Minisode of 2020! Topics this week include BECKY and TALES FROM THE LODGE! Plus, we have the next entry in Andy's side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with the over-sized reptilian antics of ROGUE! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster* image can be seen below...  *"Hi folks, Andy here. In the interest of transparency, I should say that I have hoodwinked Mitch a little bit with this one. This is NOT, in fact, the poster for a horror film from years gone by. It i

It's OFFICIALLY December. We only have THREE more of these to go, including this one. What a year... Now, it's EPISODE 129! This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the writer/director of BENNY LOVES YOU, the breakout hit from this October's Frightfest...  It's KARL HOLT!  The film?  Silent Night, Deadly Night!  Going back to 1984 for one of the most controversial Christmas movies ever made. It's also superb!  The synopsis is as follows: After years of abuse at the hands of tyrannical nuns, Billy's finally flipped! Dressed as St. Nick, the teenager heads back to the oppressive orphanage of his childhood to exact his bloody revenge, 'punishing' anyone who gets in his way!

Wow. December. December of 2020. In a way, it's kind of remarkable that we all made it this far. Let's give ourselves a pat on the back as we listen to this ABSOLUTE MONSTER of a Minisode! Coming in at a meaty 50 minutes, it's MINISODE 130!  Topics this week include Shudder Exclusive PORNO and DOUBLE DATE. Plus, we have the next entry in Andy's side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with the fun dubbing catastrophe that is Dick Maas' PREY! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below... Also, it's not Mitch's pitch this week... We also announce the film for this week's main episode...

This is IT! This the last episode before we don our Christmas jumpers, the seasonal theme and embrace a festive season in a world beset by plague. I can't tell you exactly how that's going to go but I can say this... It's going to be an experience! So, to the episode!  It's EPISODE 128! This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined once again by one of the co-hosts of the phenomenal Arrow Video Podcast. He is also the director of the films FRANKENSTEIN'S CREATURE and A LITTLE MORE FLESH... It's SAM ASHURST! (The below image IS Sam...but he's dressed as Toxie) The film? THE TOXIC AVENGER!  The Toxic Avenger has long been said to have "built the house of Troma" and with the musclebound superhero raking in the dollars from action figures and kids cartoons it is hard to argues with that. So it is perhaps timely that Sam rejoins us right now. In fact the timing couldn't be better as Sam's own film, A LITTLE MORE FLESH, is coming to Troma's own streaming service from December 1st!  So to THE TOXIC AVE

Monday again! Lockdown again. December looms large. Now? MINISODE 129!  Topics this week include BLOOD VESSEL, THE POSSESSION OF HANNAH GRACE and INSTAPSYCHO. Plus, we have the next entry in Andy's side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with the outrageously fun BEAKS: THE MOVIE! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below... Also, it's not Mitch's pitch this week... We also announce the film for this week's main episode...

We are flying towards Christmas and what a year it's been. One for the bin, that's for sure. But we have remained consistent in our efforts to keep bringing you great content and this week, we have ramped things up again and, to be honest, this is gonna be one that is huge for Mitch! It's EPISODE 127! This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the director of perennial Mitch Bain favourite MAY, also, THE WOMAN and KINDRED SPIRITS... It's LUCKY McKEE! The film? PASSION!  A latter era effort this week from the mighty Brian De Palma, sees Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace butt heads with fatal results in this steamy and, quite frankly, smoky thriller! What will the guys make of this one, given they're both seeing it for the first time... The synopsis is as follows:  The rivalry between the manipulative boss of an advertising agency and her talented protégé escalates from stealing credit to public humiliation to murder.   Please note that this podcast may contain strong language and even s

Further to last week's optimistic tone adopted by Andy, it's far from surprising that Donald Trump is refusing to concede defeat to Biden, while his MAGAts run wild and unchecked. Also, that bastard COVID-19 continues its inexorable march across the globe. So much so that both Andy and Mitch will return to full regional lockdowns this week.  For now, let's have some fun! MINISODE 128!  Topics this week include Indicator's Norman J Warren boxset, while Mitch looks at LITTLE WILLIE and THRESHOLD! In addition to this, we have the third entry in Andy's side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with the brilliant TICKS! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below... Also, it's not Mitch's pitch this week... We also announce the film for this week's main episode

The distance between these episodes is an ever evolving and active thing. We apologise for the scattershot nature of these episodes but, similarly, enjoy the time that they afford us to secure real, legit, guests.  Our guest this week is a musician, composer and STILL one of the hosts of the podcast STRONG LANGUAGE & VIOLENT SCENES... He is also a man with a beard!  Yes! It's MITCH's turn! His chosen film? Well, regular listeners to the show should know that this was ALWAYS going to come around. It was a question of WHEN, not IF! The time? NOW! The film? GRAVEYARD STORY! So! This! From the mind of Yugoslavian auteur Bozidar D Benedikt comes THIS, the weirdest genre smash ever. Is it a supernatural tale? No. Is it a mafia story? I guess so? Is it GOOD? Undoubtedly.  The synopsis is as follows:  After a rich man discovers a grave of a little girl, some unknown force drives him to discover the circumstances of her death. He hires a private eye to do so, and discovers more than he ever imagined. Ple

Wow. We record today in a new world. A world which seems to have adopted a more hopeful tone with the election of Joe Biden as the next President of the United States of America. Congratulation to all of our friends across the pond and we trust that you can start looking forward with pride, rather than embarrassment, at your president. It's a wonderful time.  For now, MINISODE 127!  Topics this week include Remi Weekes's stunning debut feature HIS HOUSE, Shudder's CREEPSHOW animated Halloween Special and hot from SoHome Horror Festival 3, DANNI & THE VAMPIRE! In addition to this, we have the sophomore entry in Andy's side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with the humdrum SWARMED! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below... Also, it's not Mitch's pi

Hello and welcome to EPISODE 125, the first episode since Andy turned forty! Sorry to say that with this landmark comes a maturity. So all the jokes are gone, no more jizz jokes. No more masturbation jokes. It's all serious, all the time now...  This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the director of Shudder Original THE CLEANSING HOUR... It's DAMIEN LeVECK! The film? THE GATE!  A favourite from Andy's childhood and, obviously, a first watch for Mitch, The Gate is one of the great underappreciated (it's obviously liked a heap but it should be up there with things like The Goonies). Will Mitch agree?  The synopsis is as follows:  When Al (Christa Denton) and Glenn's (Stephen Dorff) parents (Deborah Grover, Scot Denton) leave town for the weekend, Al uses the opportunity to throw a party while little brother Glenn and his friend Terry (Louis Tripp) decide to explore a hole left by a tree-removal service in the backyard. When unexplainable phenomena begin occurring, Terry -- with the

Good morning! IT'S HALLOWEEN and as you may have gathered from the title of this episode, it's Andy's birthday! Andy's 40th birthday. Wow. Anyway, join us as we wish him well!  For now, onto MINISODE 126!  Topics this week include Karl Holt's BENNY LOVES YOU, the incredible RELIC, former guest Natasha Kermani's latest joint LUCKY and Mitch takes a look at killer jeans flick, SLAXX! In addition to this, we have the first entry in Andy's first side-quest where he delves into the world of NATURE GONE WILD with Ovidio G. Assonitis' TENTACLES! Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below... Also, it's not Mitch's pitch this week... We also announce the film and guest for this week's main episode.  In addition to all this, we dig into your posts and messages in the Feedback section

Hello and welcome to EPISODE 124, and what is essentially our Halloween episode. We know that Halloween and, indeed, Andy's birthday are going to look a little different for people this year but as always, you can rest assured that we will continue to bring you episodes in these unprecedented times! This week, we are absolutely delighted to be joined by the busiest woman in horror. She is the Director of Frightfest 2020 summer selection 12 HOUR SHIFT and Writer/star of Natasha Kermani's LUCKY. She has also starred in such films as AFTER MIDNIGHT, BEYOND THE GATES and THE STYLIST. Throw onto all that being the co-host of the READING GLASSES Podcast and now, with the release of MARY, graphic novelist... It's BREA GRANT! The film? BASKET CASE!  I can already see the comments coming in... "WHAT!?! Who doesn't like Basket Case?", "THIS IS AN OUTRAGE", "Basket Case doesn't need defending" and, do you know what? You're right. However, one of the hosts will disagree with that sentiment.  One of the hosts is no

Good morning! Welcome to this, MINISODE 125, the LAST Minisode before Halloween (and Andy's 40th)! It's going to be a different kind of Halloween this year due to COVID etc but we will still be here delivering the kind of high quality entertainment that you've come to expect.  Topics this week include a look at the upcoming Second Sight 4K release of George A. Romero's seminal zombie classic DAWN OF THE DEAD, Andy hops onto Shudder for a look at the Boulet Brothers' DRAGULA: RESURRECTION, horror comedy DEAD, Jeffrey Reddick's DON'T LOOK BACK and Netflix Original CADAVER ...and FINALLY, Mitch's 90's side-quest draws to a close with SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK! That also means that Andy's NATURE GONE WILD side-quest starts next week... Also, there's another installment of MITCH'S PITCHES!  Due to his well documented ignorance towards films, Mitch is shown a film poster with all titles, taglines etc removed and tasked with attempting to decipher the plot. Will it go well? The poster image can be seen below...
