Scary Larry joins us to discuss a subject near and dear to him...Horror! This time, we all give our Top 5 Lists of Horror Film Remakes. Larry gives a few more quick lists and we read off some of our friend's Top 5 as well. It's time for your 143rd Pint!!

July 3rd 1985- Back To The Future is released and changes the face of pop culture. 35 years to the day, we release our tribute episode to the trilogy loved by millions worldwide. Pop culture remains the same.    

The 100 Proof Book Project returns, and Lady G swings by to read the first 2 trades of Image Comics' Lazarus. The story of a not so far fetched future and a reluctant woman making her way through this world is discussed and a good time was had. Get to your Local Comic Shop and check this and many other great comics out!

Keith Larsen, Producer of The Charlton Movie and one of the guys behind the new podcast Pizza And Pop Culture chooses his film for the latest PMI. Sometimes described as motionless, boring and not having much happening in it, Star Trek: The Motion Picture is looked at and discussed. What does this film have to do with McDonalds? Which cast member wanted nothing to do with it? What exactly did Stephen Collins do that makes him...problematic to talk about nowadays? You know how to find out. Listen In, it's your 140th pint.

Scary Larry's Pint O' Horrors returns, and brings us to the Isle of Summerisle, circa 1973. That's right, it's time for The Wicker Man! No, not the one with the beeeeeeees, the original. Buxom women rhythmically slapping their bodies, strange candy shops and a whole lot of horrifying human sacrifice! Listen In!!

A short discussion about something serious. #BlackLivesMatter

Happy Day! We have a ton of episodes in the can and room on our server at the end of the month! Bonus episode for you! G.I. Gary comes to the 100 Proof Book Project to discuss a story arc from early 80's Marvel G.I. Joe. Eskimos, evil scientists and harpoon guns are all part of the 8 issues we cover. Listen In! Second Pint this week, please consume responsibly!

Celebrate Memorial Day with a Pint Movie Invitational this year! Stew from The Ghosts Of The Stratosphere Podcast returns and chooses 2003's Lot In Translation to discuss. Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson bond in Tokyo and we delve into this fake relationship way too hard. From the treatment of the Japanese people to what was said at the end, we cover it! Listen In!!!

Andrew Morgan of The Nomcast stops by to discuss our Top 5 Films of 1990. What film irks Sir Jon beyond belief? How many of these films did we all see in the actual cinema? What film is on 2 of our lists that the other 2 never even heard of? You know what to do. Time to Listen In!! Pint 135 is ready for consumption.

Lou joins Ganache for an episode all about video gaming. From what Lou has been playing during quarantine, to sales figures and what is coming out this year, we talk all about pixels. This an ep that would make Duke Nukem happy, and it should make you happy too. Listen In, it's your 134th Pint!

Stew from the great comic book podcast Ghosts Of The Stratosphere joins John to discuss the 2013 DC series Superman Unchained. From superstar artist Jim Lee and writer Scott Snyder comes a story about the discovery of another Superman. What follows is big action, too many villains and the magic rock! Listen In to this latest edition of The 100 Proof Book Project and thanks for listening as always

Larry takes us to New Zealand for this Horrific Pint. Peter Jackson, before he was known as the fimmaker to bring Tolkien to the big screen made low budget gorefests, and Dead Alive is just that. This one results in a split decision with one of us siding with Larry on it's greatness and the other two..not so much. Listen In, it's your 132nd Pint!!!!

3 years ago Episode 1 was released. 3 years and 1 Manster later, we put out your 131st Pint. We discuss comics we have been reading, movies and TV we have been watching and more. What is going on with Diamond and the distribution of comics? What entertainment do we have to recommend to you? You know how this works...Listen In!

Indie filmmaker Kurt Spieler sits back down with The Manster and Ganache, and brings his choice for The PMI to discuss. 1995's Tales From The Crypt: Demon Knight proved to be a very inspiring film to him and he shares a lot of great factoids about it's production. From the first time he saw it through his love for the soundtrack, we try to cover all the bases about this cult classic. Listen In!

The 4th edition of Scary Larry's Pint O' Horrors is a long time coming. Motel Hell has been one hell of a film for us to actually get to record, and we had to do it in true social distancing fashion. Farmer Vincent's meats are the best around, but why exactly does Larry want to discuss this one? Only one way to find out, and that's to Listen In! 

So we sat down in 4 different places to test out different methods of recording remotely, and just ended up recording an impromptu conversation. No plans, no notes, and no audio quality! We are working on improving that last one though! Enjoy a pretty fun discussion from Covid to Star Trek and beyond. Listen In!!

The 100 Proof Book Project is under quarantine! Lady G steps in to discuss the first 6 issues of 2016's Black Widow, from creators Chris Samnee and Mark Waid. What will a complete and total non comic reader think about a story arc of a character she knows next to nothing about? well, that's exactly why you should listen, because I promise an answer to that and more questions. Listen In and enjoy your 127th Pint!

We live in new times. COVID 19 has made it irresponsible for podcasters to convene and record. The Pint was low on episodes so in these trying times, what can be done? Ganache goes solo for this ep in which he recommends some entertainment for the quarantined masses. Stay safe and healthy, and Sir Jon, The Manster and Ganache will be back recording again as soon as possible.

Manster is out this week, so Sir Jon and Ganache bring the heat! Scary Larry picks his second film for The Invitational and brings along his fellow film nerd from Connecticut Cult Classics Mike Simonetta. What could possibly be up Larry's sleeve this time? The Greasy Strangler, that's what. If you know it, you know this is going to be a weird edition of The Pint, and very fittingly our 125th Episode! Listen In and keep your merkins on, it's going to get weird.

Filmmaker and friend Kurt Spieler drops by and lends his opinion to our latest list show. This time we discuss our Top 10 Favorite Movie Scenes Set To Popular Music. Originally planned to be a Top 5, this category proved to be pretty ripe for a bigger list, so that's what we did. Follow Kurt, Ganache and The Manster as we cover the scenes that seamlessly meld the worlds of visuals and song to the greatest effect. Listen In to find out what website you should check out to get some more great lists on the same subject as well!
