Take Two month continues with 1958's The Fly! Brandon Ledet, from Swampflix, joins Pete and Aaron to buzz about this great entry in 1950s horror.

Listen as we shoo away the naysayers, and say this movie can land on us anytime! We'll hold the vinegar, as we say, "Honey, we've found an enjoyable movie that is worth your time.

For all of you still reading, please check out Brandon's website, www.swampflix.com and his wonderful podcast of the same name. 

Thanks again to Zach Grooten for the artwork that flies us to the moon!

THE FLY (1958)

Just before 1990, three "under the sea" thrillers came out, all around the same time, and are frequently confused for one another. DeepStar Six, about an undersea crew setting up a Navy missile launch center, Leviathan about an undersea mining crew working for a corporation, and James Cameron's The Abyss, about Ed Harris looking pissed off to be wet. 

We'll take on the first two movies today, and put them head to head to see which one of these is more worthy. There are plenty of other fish movies under the sea, but today, we must choose one.

You can find us on Stitcher, iTunes, TuneIn, and at the bottom of the Marianas trench.

DEEPSTAR SIX Vs. LEVIATHAN

PRINCE OF DARKNESS

Sluggin' makes me feel good! This week, Aaron & Pete go ahead and kick off Spooktober and SLUGFEST 2017 with a kind of obvious start: Slugs, by Juan Piquer Simon. Mutated slugs are eating up a small American town, and the only people that can stop them are a sanitation worker and a health inspector. City workers: are they the real heroes? Please, look elsewhere for the answer than here.

You can find us on iTunes, Stitcher, TuneIN, Soundcloud, or at your local mall.

SLUGS

Oh, the weather outside is frightful/ But Shane Black's movies are delightful /And since, why the fuck not? / It's A Very Merry Shane Black Christmas on We Love To Watch!

We're kicking it off with Iron Man 3, and joined by Land of the Nerd's Douglas Laman. 

If you like the MCU, buckle up, because we'll probably never talk about it again!

You can find us on Stitcher, Soundcloud, ITunes, TuneIn, by going to our home address that we taunted the villain with, or Google Play.

IRON MAN 3

Aaron & Pete kick off Love & Monsters month with Guillermo Del Toro's romance-monster-drama about a woman who feels incomplete, and the "monster" who just may help with that. 

You can find us on iTunes, Stitcher TuneIn, but if this bathroom is a leakin' a massive amount of water, don't you go and bother.

THE SHAPE OF WATER

Lyzette Garcia joins us for more Lady's Fright Night, with FREDDY'S DEAD: THE FINAL NIGHTMARE - the "last" Nightmare on Elm Street movie (before, err, the other two), and the only one to be directed by a woman - Rachel Talalay. 

Is this movie a dream, or a nightmare? Please don't think about that very long, it was a very dumb thing to ask. You can find us on iTunes, Stitcher, Tunein, or in your nightmares.

FREDDY'S DEAD: THE FINAL NIGHTMARE

This week, we're joined by Brandon Ledet for the next set of Stuart Gordon's DREAMS IN THE WITCH HOUSE Masters of Horror episode, as well as his movie DAGON (based on Shadow over Innsmouth) by H.P. Lovecraft.
