HAPPY HOUR FLIX is a podcast all about the movies you love and love to talk about. A nostalgic look at what we grew up watching and how they still impact us today.

Get ready for a delightful trip down memory lane of "magical trash" as we welcome our delightful and hilarious friend Drew Droege to our podcast!
We'll be reminiscing about the cult classic horror flick Night of the Creeps from 1986. Brace yourself for a chat that's as nostalgic as it is humorous, complete with discussions about Drew's own witty podcast, Minor Revelations.

Of course, we must toast with our friends over at Misguided Spirits and our dear, dear friends Nick at Diamond Dogs on 31st ave in Astoria - who mixed up our creepy delicious cocktail for us.

today's cocktail:
HEAD WOUND
1 1/2 oz Misguided Spirits Red Sky Rum
3/4 oz fresh lime juice
3/4 oz simple syrup
Angostura bitters
Shake with ice
double strain into coupe
Garnish with lime wheel

Ever wondered how there are so many Alpha's in Beta... Epsilon? Why the aliens had little butts? And if you can still watch the original ending? Join us as we ponder this and other intriguing aspects of the film, such as its peculiar one-liner delivery and the controversial sexual politics of the 80s. We'll also discuss the film’s unforgettable axe murderer scene, the surprising presence of brands like Miller Lite and Pepsi, and how characters from the 50s seemed more sympathetic than their 80s counterparts.

Bow out with us as we round off our conversation with some of the film’s most memorable moments including a flashback vision involving a woman leaving a beach with a coconut and a mysterious house mother staring into a room that leads nowhere. You won't want to miss our thoughts on the iconic flamethrower, the peculiar tidy whities, and an unexpected Academy Award nomination. We assure you, it's a lively journey through the magical mystery tour of this beloved 80s horror film.

A quick reminder, no matter where you are listening to us, if you could rate us and drop us a review on Apple Podcasts, we’d be so grateful - it really helps us spread the good vibes. Thank you!
