Werewolf Ambulance

In this week's episode, we're kicking off our ~*~month of love~*~ for February with the 2009 Australian film, "The Loved Ones." Special topics for your consideration include: expecting one kind of movie and getting a vastly different one, the most earworm-y of songs, testing the limits of our tolerance for gore, a tale of a weird night on makeout lane and hey-- don't lie to us, we remember being vodka drunk teens! Do you find your Aussie horror experience lacking? If so, check out Episode 11- "The Babadook", Episode 89- "Queen of the Damned" (oddly enough, it's lightly Australian!) or Episode 255- "Lake Mungo." If that's not enough for you, head south east to New Zealand for Episode 78- "Housebound" and Episode 195- "What We Do in the Shadows." And if you just can't get enough of us, you can get our faces printed on a t-shirt, throw pillow and more at www.teepublic.com/user/werewolfambulance. If our faces aren't doing it for you, may we suggest Brian from "Wings"?? Have you seen this one? What did you think? 

After what felt like interminable weeks in the 1990s, we're taking a step back. This week, we are discussing the 1988 film "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama," which is kind of a longer title than it is a film. Special topics for your consideration include: the golden age of underboob, reminiscing about Charles Band's greatest hits, chainwallets: a good idea?, the problems with Uncle Impie, a love of Linnea Quigley and Demon Stamina without spellcasting capabilities.  Do you love Linnea Quigley? Perhaps you'd enjoy Episode 9- "Silent Night Deadly Night," Episode 17- "Return of the Living Dead" or Episode 192- "Night of the Demons."  Please also go check out our Youtube companion episode in which we're introducing everything we'll be discussing in the month of February-- the month of ~*~love~*~ While you're watching, please subscribe to our channel--you can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/c/werewolfambulance And if you just can't get enough of us, you can get our faces printed on a t-shirt, thr

In this week's episode, we are thankfully done with the space rock block but are somehow STILL in the 1990s! We're talking about the film "Deep Blue Sea," the 1999 killer shark vehicle picked by the winner of our YouTube sweepstakes, Jermaine Howard. Special topics for your consideration include: shark science explained, a lil bit of poetry, feeling joy at a main character's death, a lovely rousing speech by Samuel L. Jackson, and loving LL Cool J but feeling a bit less comfortable about Thomas Jane.  Are you into the concept of ocean creatures being murderers? May we recommend Episode 41- "L'Ultimo Squalo (The Last Shark)," Episode 193- "Orca" and Episode 247- "Piranha"?  We'll be bringing back the video next week to tell you about our upcoming plans for February.  But if you just can't get enough of us, you can get our faces printed on a t-shirt, throw pillow and more at www.teepublic.com/user/werewolfambulance. If our faces aren't doing it for you, may we suggest Brian from "Wings"?? Have you seen this one

In this week's episode, we're wrapping up our weird space horror movies of the 90s rock block with the 1996 film "Leprechaun 4: In Space." Special topics for your consideration include: the fact that the subtitle of this film is merely "In Space," interesting naming choices, special effects that are charming if somewhat terrible, more of the following things: space marines! poorly lit spaceships! breast-based death curses! and finally, a whole lot of "what? why??" Did you miss our other episode from the Leprechaun franchise? It's Episode 39- "Leprechaun in the Hood." Did you miss our other 90s space horror movies? Check out last week's, Episode 262- "Hellraiser: Bloodline" and a few weeks back, Episode 259- "Jason X." No video this week, pals-- we're going to retool and get back to it in a few weeks.  But if you just can't get enough of us, you can get our faces printed on a t-shirt, throw pillow and more at www.teepublic.com/user/werewolfambulance. If our faces aren't doing it for you, may we suggest Brian f

In this week's episode, we're discussing the second of our three horror-films-in-space rock block: the 4th entry into the Hellraiser franchise, "Hellraiser: Bloodline." Special topics for your consideration include: an exploration of our continued confusion about how puzzle boxes work, why puzzle boxes work, what sex demons are doing, why sex demons are doing and so on, confusion about Adam Scott's life, confusion about how lasers work, a taste that's maybe just not for us and the single most accurate review we've ever gotten.  You like this franchise? Check out our Hellraiser series with the original (Episode 51) and "Hellraiser II: Hellbound" (Episode 205). Maybe wanna watch something else instead? Enjoy another space movie with Episode 125- "Event Horizon" and our highly excellent friend Dave.  No video this week, pals-- we're going to retool and get back to it in a few weeks.  But if you just can't get enough of us, you can get our faces printed on a t-shirt, throw pillow and more at www.teepublic.com/use

In this week's episode, we're reviving a ghost of New Years' Past-- oh yeah, we're talking about a rom com. What better way to ring in the year 2020 than with a movie about TECHNOLOGY? We're talking about the 1998 Meg Ryan/Tom Hanks classic, "You've Got Mail." Special topics for your consideration include: Ryan and Hanks at peak cuteness, wondering if the concept of negging is romantic, Jimmy Stewart impressions, an abbreviated history of film and just a little Unabomber chat.  You can check out last year's episode if you want to experience our entire romantic oeuvre with Episode 209, "Love Actually." I guess you could also try the somewhat romantic film "Days of Thunder" (Episode 76) or, if you just love horrible sex scenes, you could do worse than Episode 170- "Roadhouse."  Please also go check out our Youtube companion episode in which we play the game "The Leading Men in Meg Ryan's Rom Com...Movies " and discuss the most wonderful, horrible premise of a rom com that could ever exist.

In this year's annual Christmas horror movie extravaganza, we're heading to Finland and the great wonders of snowmobiles, wolf traps and pig heads. That's right, we're discussing the 2010 film "Rare Exports." Some other topics you may want to consider: a positive affirmation about the great outdoors being for...well, not us, perks of being lowkey terrifying, a most Pittsburgh treat and a buncha naked old Santas.  Hey, are you really in the festive mood?

In this week's episode, we're kicking off our horror-movies-in-space rock block (that will be interrupted by our regularly scheduled holiday programming) with the 2001 entry into the "Friday the 13th" franchise, "Jason X." Hoo boy, this one. Special topics for your consideration include: the personal grooming habits of one Jason Voorhees, having a real Stone Cold Steve Austin quality about you, unsolicited advice for science fiction writers, the beginnings of the script for the movie we're going to write, and an examination of Jason's motivations. We may have covered more films from this franchise than any other.

In this week's episode, we're bringing our "Hell House LLC" franchise coverage to an end with the third installment, "Lake of Fire." Special topics for your consideration include: previous jokes about the franchise finally paying off, woo-ing like Ric Flair, a stage production that is "lightly Faust," a question of whether Nana Cognetti helped finance this one and a middle-of-the-night revelation about this film that totally ruined Allen.

In this week's episode, we're going back to the well of COGNETTI! with the second film in this franchise, "Hell House LLC 2: The Abaddon Hotel" (or "Hell House 2 LLC," depending on who you ask.) Special topics for your consideration include: day jobs for demons, documentaries in documentaries in documentaries with some added documentary footage, non-subtle story choices, dramatic cultist behavior and a film franchise that is giving us way, WAY more joy than it has any right to.

In this week's episode, we decided that maybe we'd been having too much fun lately and wanted to bring it down a notch with the 2008 Australian ghost story "Lake Mungo." Special topics for your consideration include: a bit of sadness, a bit of existential dread, a surprising lack of knowledge when it comes to drug terminology, loose understandings of what a doppelganger is, boomer talk and a suggestion for a KidzBop album that is just never gonna get made.  Like atmospheric ghost-y movies? You may enjoy Episode 161- "I Am The Pretty Thing That Lives in the House." How about Australian horror? You could check out Episode 11- "The Babadook" and as a bonus, Episode 78- "Housebound" (yes, we know that New Zealand is a separate country but Oceania, right?) We couldn't really think of many fun things to do when it comes to this sad sad movie for our Youtube companion episode, so we read some very fun Mailbags and made some jokes.

In this week's episode, we try to keep the Halloween vibes alive with the 2015 found footage film "Hell House LLC." Special topics for your consideration include: COGNETTI!, questionable choices, Steven Weber, having plot holes that are not filled until the sequel, and...wait, which one is Tony?

In this week's episode, we talk about a bunch of people we think we might know from other things with the 1984 sci-fi horror film "C.H.U.D." Special topics for your consideration include: a deep dive on the career and sartorial choices of one Mr. Daniel Stern, a lil bit of baseball talk, sitcoms, cop 'tude, signs of a toxic relationship and the kind of loopiness that we can only muster with a rare afternoon recording session. If you like "C.H.U.D." and movies like it, you may also enjoy Episode 50- "The Blob," Episode 171- "Ghoulies" or maybe Episode 180- "The Stuff."

In this week's episode we're discussing the 1993 kid-friendly horror film "Hocus Pocus," but a word to the wise: this episode is not kid-friendly as we originally intended. Whoops! Special topics for your consideration include: French aristocrat parties?!, the potential for "peak SJP" and also lightly crushing on Matthew Broderick, what happens when a teenage boy is turned into a cat, wondering whether we actually tried to start a feud with Bette Midler or if we're mis-remembering and the most wonderful time of the year.  If you're looking for a kid-friendly episode, we did exactly one. It's Episode 82- "Coraline." If you're looking for a terribly un-kid-friendly episode, perhaps try Episode 127- "Slither," which is like 80% dick jokes.  Please also go check out our YouTube companion episode for this week, in which we rank the all-time movie witches and open a gift from a listener.

In this week's episode, our 250th (!!!), we're asking ourselves the question "who is this movie for, and dear god, why?" with the 1996 horror thriller "Fear." Special topics for your consideration include: how the roller coaster scene affects a 15 year old's brain, the not-so-believable appeal of meth guys, inexplicable Chucky dolls, a Bush sponsorship, potty training theories and WEREWOLF AMBULANCE 4EVA. Do you like Mark Wahlberg? (If so...why?) Anyway, you can catch him again in Episode 12- "The Happening." Do you like teen romps? You may like Episode 44- "Scream." How about home invasion films?

In this week's episode, we're revisiting an old friend we haven't seen since Episode 21 with "Creepshow 2" except now the old friend is weird and like, kind of matted and gross and after awhile you start to feel like maybe reuniting wasn't the greatest idea. Special topics for your consideration include: some confusion over what actually constitutes beautiful hair, misplaced confidence, a cautionary tale for aspiring filmmakers, being surprised at actually knowing things and a few things we love: 80s animation, T-tops and Tom Savini.

In this week's episode, we continue with our Jaws ripoff rock block while discussing the 1976 land version, "Grizzly." Special topics for your consideration include: defending oneself against a bear attack, Kelly's terrible interpersonal skills, marshmallow-heavy diets, Slurpees, horses, rocket launchers and one terrible joke about a bear and a rabbit.  It's going to be a looooong time before we do another of these Jaws-inspired films, so go ahead and enjoy our other episodes on them: Episode 41- "L'Ultimo Squalo (The Last Shark)," Episode 193- "Orca" and last week's episode, 247- "Piranha."

In this week's episode, we're discussing another film from the very specific horror sub-genre called Movies that Rip Off Jaws. This one is from 1978-- "Piranha." Special topics for your consideration include: the fact that this movie stars a dog named Jack Cardwell, extremely weird running and diving, deciding that you're someone's mom just because you hooked up with their dad, Lisa Left Eye Lopes, pluralizing "piranha" and again, because it bears repeating: this movie stars a dog named Jack Cardwell. You like Jaws ripoffs? Lucky for you, we've covered two of them! Check out Episode 41- "L'Ultimo Squalo (The Last Shark)" and Episode 193- "Orca." And because you love those Jaws ripoffs so much, we're doing another one next week! We'll be discussing the 1976 film "Grizzly" because why wouldn't we?
