The Head, The Tail, The Whole Damn Thing

Behind the Scenes of Reanimator (1985) and Frankenstein (2025) you say. Why, that sounds fantastic. Hey, Whole Damn Family, we are doubling up on the "back from the dead due to the mad scientist trope". Opening it up with the Stuart Gordon classic Reanimator, covering everything from what it is to what it could have been. James unearths an old commercial from Slash Bros. We try to bring back cockamamie as a term and also discuss tail in its different shades. We come out of the Lobby for a long look at what Frankenstein fan-boy Guillermo Del Toro came up with for his take on the famous Mary Shelley tale. Mike sings another docu-song, and we harrumph their way to some nice "How they did that" moments and point out some things maybe you didn't notice. Also, we discuss the talent of Mike Hill. Check his website link below to be amazed! Check out more of Mike Hill's fantastic work. https://www.mikehillcreations.com/ Want to support and buy some show swag? Check out our RedBubble store!

Hello Whole Damn family...Resident Evil you say? Resident Evil you say again? How about a double dose? In this episode, we get real residential in Raccoon City. Our first movie Paul (watch my wife naked) Anderson directs the original adaptation of the Resident Evil video game franchise. This version from (2002) flashbangs first and asks questions later. We talk absurd AI and bad company policy. In the second half of the show we cover the new Resident Evil (2026) adaptation and discuss survival horror on the Mcalister, Mcfly, McClain scale, according to Zach Cregger. There's some good behind-the-scenes on both of these. Is this new one a horror comedy? Only Mr.T knows for sure. He pities the poor fools who don't listen to this episode.

Opa! Whole Damn Family, we spin a bit of fantasy this episode for some laughs and the ins and outs of Greek Mythology.

Hey Whole Damn family! We bent the rules a little bit because James had always wanted to do Strange Darling (2023) so here we are with what is a banger of a double feature, matching it with The Hitcher (1986). On this episode, we learn not to pick up hitchhikers and not to go on a one-night stand from a bar. Life lessons from HTWDT. We also get help from our friends at both Slash U and I Wanna Be in the Sequel. We talk about movie character names, we get into some Squatch Lore, and we challenge you to something at Applebees...listen and find out how to win!!   Slash U Podcast https://www.instagram.com/slashu_podcast/?hl=en I wanna Be in the Sequel Podcast https://www.instagram.com/iwannabeinthesequelpodcast/?hl=en Want to support and buy some show swag?

Well Whole Damn Family. We've done a lot of things, both Evil and Dead, this year, and the tradition continues this episode! We start with the Italian Dario Argento/Lamberto Bava gore fest Demons from (1985) Can you believe growing up with Mike, James had never seen it! What will he think? Is it too old school for him to jive, or does the ending of this movie push him over the edge with 4-cylinder wind-in-your-hair and katana-in-your-hand joy? After we get possessed by an ancient mask and an old Latin book. We crack the flesh-bound cover on another old Latin book, with (2026) Evil Dead Burn. We totally feel the burn on this one and give you the goods in spoiler-free, Whole Damn Thing style reviews. Special guest stars are Bobby (Tony the Pimp) Rhodes and terrible Italian and French accents. Want to support and buy some show swag? Check out our RedBubble store! Click on 'Explore Designs.'

Hey Whole Damn Family! When we heard about Backrooms, we immediately thought of pairing it with this low-budget, smart, and successful sci-fi thriller, Cube (1997), and we think we were on the money with this one. Fans of Robert Loggia, rejoice; we open up a gem from the vault that maybe you don't know about. What's it got to do with Cube or Backrooms, you might ask... nothing, it was just another tangent. Speaking of tangents. We also wrote a Vin Diesel movie before we moved on to the second movie, Backrooms (2026). We fall into some deep tangents in the Backrooms as well; some involve history lessons, and we were wrong, but don't worry, we fixed it! There's lots to unpack in this weirdly sci-fi horror mixtape of an episode.

Hello Whole Damn Family, this is something a bit different for our 50th episode! We decided to get nostalgic about our childhoods and explore these two movies. Honestly, this is the most fun we've had making an episode, and it shows! Does the campy nature of Flash Gordon (1980) still hold it strong? Can Masters of the Universe (2026) match it in goofy wonder? These movies may have more in common than you think. Only one way to find out. Listen and laugh, both with us and at us as we talk heavy behind-the-scenes stories and lore on Flash Gordon and Masters of the Universe. Oh and Mike Sings Flash Ahhhhhh!!

Hey, Whole Damn Family, this is just a casual rom-com weekend double feature. Just some light entertainment. Nothing heavy or freaky here...The first half of the show, we both watched Takashi Miike 's Audition (1998) for the FIRST TIME! Wow okay, well, we were prepared because we knew. To ease us into it James does some relaxing Haiku. After that, we call the One Wish Willow help line and talk all about the box office record-breaking sensation that is Curry Barker's Obsession (2026). Is it all hype, or is the hype legit?   Go check out Makeup Department head Allie Shehorn's Insta for some BTS on IObsession and more. https://www.instagram.com/allieshehornart/ Want to support and buy some show swag?
