    Blood Diner (1987)
    Jul 22 2024
    “I’m so horny I could fuck a cow.” Things are going from strange to downright bizarre on this week’s episode of The Blind Rage Podcast, as we take a look at Jackie Kong’s 1987 horror-comedy BLOOD DINER! As children, brothers Michael and George witness the brutal death of their doting Uncle Anwar. 20 years later, they’re running a popular Hollywood diner, which serves exclusively vegetarian cuisine. Or so their clientele believes. Using one of Anwar’s many absurd rituals, Michael and George are able to resurrect their favorite uncle, only now, he’s a talking brain in a jar. With eyeballs. Following Anwar’s instructions to the letter, the brothers begin butchering and dismembering the city’s most immoral women, using their body parts to bring to life the ancient Egyptian goddess Shetar. Following the blood trail, some local detectives are on the case. Unfortunately for Hollywood’s dwindling population, these guys are closer to Inspector Gadget than they are Hercule Poirot.

    Frankenhooker (1990)
    Jul 15 2024
    “Want a date? Going out? Lookin’ for some action?” On this week’s titillating episode of The Blind Rage Podcast, it’s Frank Henenlotter’s terrifying tale of sluts and bolts, the one and only FRANKENHOOKER! After a freak mishap with an out-of-control lawnmower, Jeffrey Franken’s (James Lorinz) fiancée (Patty Mullen) is eaten by the maniacally spinning blades. Only a few pieces of her remain: an arm, a foot, and, of course, her head. Unable to accept the loss, Jeffrey concocts an elaborate plan to resurrect her, using the dismembered limbs of New York City streetwalkers to fill in the blanks. Oh, and did I mention there’s supercrack? FRANKENHOOKER is a hilarious and wildly entertaining dark comedy that remains a cult favorite, even close to 35 years later. I’m very happy to finally feature it on the podcast.

  • The Greasy Strangler (2016)

    The Greasy Strangler (2016)
    Jul 8 2024
    The Blind Rage Podcast is ringing in the second week of July with Jim Hoskings’ absurdist horror-comedy THE GREASY STRANGLER, one of the most insane films we’ve covered so far. Meet Big Braden, a middle-aged incel, who shares a filthy, mold-coated dwelling with his eccentric father Big Ronny. Together, they conduct disco walking tours, telling fabricated tales of the biggest acts of the ‘70s. It is on one such tour that Braden crosses paths with Janet. An explosive—and extraordinarily awkward—love affair immediately ensues. Creating a rift in the lovers’ newfound bliss is the jealous and overbearing Big Ronny, not to mention a naked, grease-coated psychopath stalking the streets under the cover of night. Dubbed The Greasy Strangler, the menace attacks at random, collecting a host of mutilated bodies during his multiple wraths. Things take an nasty turn when Braden begins to suspect Big Ronny could quite possibly be The Greasy Strangler…

  • Excision (2012)

    Excision (2012)
    Jul 1 2024
    “Can you contract an STD by having sex with a dead person?” The Blind Rage Podcast kicks off this month with Richard Bates, Jr.’s EXCISION, a film destined to be a cult classic. Meet Pauline (AnnaLynne McCord), a high school outcast who aspires to one day become a surgeon. While most who plan for a career in medicine spend their days studying the human body, Pauline believes her understanding of the subject is far superior than anything found in necessary textbooks. She instead fills her days engaged in pseudo psychological counseling with a local priest (John Waters), isolating herself from her classmates by acting out in a plethora of reprehensible antics, and praying to a God she isn’t sure exists. With strong performances by McCord, as well as Traci Lords, who plays Pauline’s overbearing mother, EXCISION is a breath of fresh air, especially in times like these, when most filmmaking is more copy and paste than innovation or originality.

  • A Good Marriage (2014)

    A Good Marriage (2014)
    Jun 24 2024
    Again, The Blind Rage Podcast says good-bye to one of horror’s most iconic voices, as Stephen King Month 2.0 comes to an end. With this fond farewell, we’ll be discussing A GOOD MARRIAGE, a seemingly overlooked adaptation of a novella, which appeared in the 2010 collection FULL DARK, NO STARS. Heavily inspired by the BTK case, Joan Allen stars as Darcy, an ordinary suburban housewife, who discovers that her husband of 25 years is a sadistic killer, preying on women long before their paths even crossed. With his ability to read her better than anyone, Bob (Anthony LaPaglia) immediately knows she’s stumbled upon his secret. However, rather than killing her to keep that secret safe, Bob tells her that she can go to the authorities if she so desires, he’ll do nothing to stand in her way. But this revelation will not only ruin her life, as no one will believe Darcy hadn’t known of his crimes, but it will also ruin the lives of their adult children, whose perception of their kind and loving father will be forever shattered. That was a far too long and clunky sentence, but then again, I’m no Stephen King. Clearly.

    Cat's Eye (1985)
    Jun 17 2024
    Summer’s only a few days away and The Blind Rage Podcast is celebrating the hottest time of year with another Stephen King adaptation! In 1985’s CAT’S EYE, we’re introduced to an adorable little tabby, who journeys from place to place in search of something unknown. Between ventures, he finds himself in the midst of some rather unusual circumstances. First, we have a father (James Woods) who decides to quit smoking via an agency whose methods are highly unorthodox. Next, we’re in Atlantic City, where a wealthy gambler discovers his wife is having an affair with a young tennis pro and decides to solve matters by placing a bet with her new love interest. Lastly, we’re in the suburbs of a small town, where a little girl (Drew Barrymore) claims she’s being menaced by an evil troll who lives in her bedroom wall. The only one who can stop him is our sweet tabby, who she quickly adopts and names General, as she’s certain he’ll be her protector.

    Stephen King Month 2.0 continues on The Blind Rage Podcast! For week two, we’re taking a look at the 1990 anthology TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE: THE MOVIE, a spinoff of the 1980s television series, featuring a stacked cast of well-knowns, including: Christian Slater, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, William Hickey, and legendary rock star Debbie Harry. A young Matthew Lawrence stars as Timmy, a neighborhood kid who’s been abducted by a suburban housewife (Harry), who just happens to be a witch. And a cannibal with a taste for children. The only way Timmy can prevent her from cooking and eating him is by reading her stories from a massive tome, which holds dozens of twisted yarns. Will Timmy keep his captor distracted long enough to devise a plan to escape?
