Even short-time listeners of the show have probably guessed that HMN loves all things practical effects, especially murderous playthings. So it should come as no surprise that we tackled the awful/entertaining 1992 Full Moon direct-to-video release DEMONIC TOYS! Baby Oopsie Daisy tries desperately to suck the joy out of our rewatch of this classic b-horror with its terrible puns, but thankfully, we have Jack Attack and Grizzly Teddy to keep things going strong through the final act. It's anyone's guess what the writers were on while crafting this masterpiece, but this kind of genius most certainly requires an altered state to achieve such thought-provoking prose as a killer baby doll grumbling, "HI YA FAT FUCK!"

Horror Movie Night

Episode 163: Demonic Toys (1992)

Join Geekscape writer Matt Kelly and musician Scott Roger each week as they suffer through horror films both forgotten and beloved. The two (along with a rotating door of guest co-hosts) capture the excitement and the disappointment of renting movies in the 80’s and 90’s. For every surprising thrill like American Gothic the duo suffer through 10 disappointing flops like Terror Toons. 

The show combines the nostalgia of renting videos with a snarky comedic blend that will make you feel sentimental while simultaneously putting a smile on your face. So dust off your VCR, make some popcorn and check behind every door because it’s… Horror Movie Night.
