  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #247 Stepmonster (1993)
    Jun 20 2025

    You think you have problems...this family has to live with Alan Thicke! If that isn't bad enough, all the good comics about Trepopkins are $500. Matt and Tristan talk about Stepmonster, the best movie that Amy Dolenz made that year. Probably.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #246 : Poltergeist III (1988)
    Jun 6 2025

    In the third installment of the Poltergeist series, we're going to double down on the mistakes made in the second one and make them even bigger and more confusing. Are there moments of magical brilliance? Totally. Are there big swaths of walking up stairways and calling out someone's name like a lesser 70's Hammer movie? You betcha. Matt and Tristan talk Poltergeist 3.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #245 Poltergeist II: The Other Side (1986)
    May 23 2025

    In the original Poltergeist a happy likable family, through no fault of their own, become the victims of a malevolent spectral force. In part two, the spectral force is there, but the happy likable family...is not quite as happy or likable. By adding too much Amityville and Shining to the mix, plus a tiny dash of xenophobia it misses the mark a bit. But there's still a lot to like about it. Matt and Tristan talk Poltergeist 2 : The Other Side.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #244 Grim (2005)
    May 2 2025

    There's like a troll or something? I guess his name is Grim or maybe not. There's some caves. People walk a whole bunch. I guess there's a talisman that does something, but they lose it. Sometimes people's eyes go red. Matt and Tristan talk about it for some reason.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #243 Firestarter (1984)
    Apr 18 2025

    My toxic trait is that I would totally sign up for the lot 6 tests, even after that dude clawed his eyes out. Join Matt and Tristan for the closest thing we got to an X-Men movie in the eighties, Firestarter.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #242 The Carrier (1988)
    Apr 4 2025

    Ok. Big old trigger warning. If there's a thing that bothers you to hear discussed even in less than graphic detail (SA, animal deaths) this might not be the one for you. This is a pretty mean movie in places, and pretty incomprehensible in places so be forewarned. That said, on the good side it's a very impressive low budget movie that did a whole lot with not much. On the bad side, some of the not much was comprehensible dialogue and character motivation. Matt and Tristan talk about the biggest little melt movie ever, The Carrier.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #241 : Exorcist 2 : The Heretic (1977)
    Mar 22 2025

    Without a doubt, this is the best movie ever to feature James Earl Jones wearing a Locust mascot costume.

  • Fun Box Monster Podcast #241 Highway To Hell (1991)
    Mar 14 2025

    This movie is a case study in how a generic title combined with a bad poster can sink even the best of movies into obscurity. How this thing isn't talked about CONSTANTLY is a downright tragedy.
