Video Junkyard Podcast EP 201 - Willy's Wonderland

On this howlingly entertaining episode, the Video Junkyard Podcast checks out the 1985 teen comedy "Teen Wolf".
Directed by Rod Daniel, written by Jeph Loeb and Matthew Weisman, and staring Michael J. Fox, James Hampton, Jerry Levine, Susan Ursitti, and Lori Griffin, "Teen Wolf" tells of an ordinary high school student (Fox) who discovers that his family has an unusual pedigree when he finds himself turning into a werewolf. And of course according to legend, this makes him incredibly popular and great at basketball. 
The film has been the base and inspiration for a 1987 sequel, a short-lived Saturday morning cartoon, and a popular teen/adult drama series  in 2011-2017. But how is the original in retrospect? Check out the latest episode of the Video Junkyard Podcast to find out!

Missing Persons track that came together on a whim. I made a trippy guitar riff and looped it, manifested most of the dynamic between the drums and my voice. Drums, guitar, effects and vocals by - yours truly.

Episode 1 The Van Deimen Project, part 1

This week Erik and Joe welcome back artist Ryan Steiskal to talk about the 1985 Ridley Scott dark fantasy adventure film "Legend" starring Tom Cruise, Mia Sara, and Tim Curry. Does the Lord of Darkness still rule 34 years later? Or is this just a flashy pile of unicorn poo? Stop in to the Video Junkyard to find out!

Video Junkyard Podcast - EP 032 - Legend

Back in the winter of 2017 I invited a long time friend to bring his drum set to my dad's basement. He said he hadn't played in quite awhile and that his drums were all packed up in storage. Slowly I convinced him to get them out, set them up and dust them off. See how he felt about playing again. Given that he and I hadn't played together in close to fifteen years, it was a toss up to see if we still had the magic we did back in 2003. It is apparent to me that time and distance did nothing to fuck with our ability to create some rad grooves. Thanks to Chris Burkhart this track came alive. The words and vox came later.

Slightly Obsessed

This week we take a look at the 1986 video store shelf mainstay "F/X".  This 80's cop thriller about a movie FX artist that is forced to use his talents to survive when he is set up by the Justice Department was a big time hit...  Is it still worth a watch or did these "F/X" not age well?  

Let us know your thoughts about F/X.  Shoot us an e-mail with your review at: videojunkyardpodcast@gmail.com

Video Junkyard Podcast EP 048 - F/X

Do you ever get a flash of a memory of a movie you saw as a child, but can’t remember the name? Perhaps you caught it on TV while staying up later than you should have. Or maybe you never saw it, but you recognize the cover art from the neighborhood video store around the block. At the Video Junkyard, we dig up these forgotten films and franchises and see if they still hold up in the digital age.

Hosts Erik Gulbrandsen, Joe Peterson and Ryan Steiskal will look at the best, the worst, and the best of the worst.
