October Episode Four - The Blob (1988)
Added 2024-10-29 19:04:24 +0000 UTCIt's slime time, baby! We ooze into your eardrums for another ep during this spooky season to talk that 1988 remake of The Blob! You got Kevin Dillon, Shawnee Smith, and a giant, slop-spewin' monster! What more could you want for Halloween?!
Comments
For some reason had never watched this, but watched after listening to some of this ep. Really liked it, solid with good effects. Dillon as a rebel with a cause tripped me out. Not as good as the Sutherland invasion of the body snatchers remake (not sure why I’m comparing them lol), but a very solid b horror flick that has A movie effects.

2024-11-12 17:01:59 +0000 UTCGreat ep. Pat you made a great point. Seen so many zombies vampires etc. The blob is unique and I feel like has a lot of potential for a sequel/remake if done well.

2024-11-05 16:09:19 +0000 UTCThe Boyscast Patreon RSS stopped updating around the same time as WSYIH and just fixed it this weekend. I'm sure if Joe reached out to Danny Polischuk or Ryan Long (I assume they're friendly?) they could tell him what they did. I contacted Patreon support a few days ago and radio silence.

2024-10-31 15:34:09 +0000 UTCDon't know if it's just me but I've tried to watch Red Letter Media (on Joe's Rec) & I find them WAAY too in-jokey. They seem like they're in a personality vortex of some kind & I can't get what they're taking about alot of the time. I can't tell if it's a bit or what..I don't know it's weird. Other than our Boys, I watch Double Toasted, Kermode & Mayo, Reel Rejects (for big releases). Anyone have any others?

2024-10-31 04:42:09 +0000 UTCJoe, imma have to implore you to do a once over for RetroRealms. The Ash vs Evil Dead game is by far and away the better of the two. way better level design, enemy types, and an over-the-top fun story (evil dead just lends itself way better to the video game genre than any other horror franchise imo). it may seem confusing at first, but the reason why they are sold separately in the same game is because you can transfer the playable characters between games, so you can be michael fighting deadites in ash’s world and vice versa. the games narrative changes depending on the character you play as well. i’ll gladly front ya the $25 for the ash expansion. it is ABSOLUTELY worth it.

2024-10-30 15:08:47 +0000 UTCRed Letter Media also did a great review on The Blob. They do a good dive into the special effects, as well. https://youtu.be/hBOrprigQu8?si=iuQM2LwN7fyIaP3W

2024-10-30 13:18:50 +0000 UTCHappy Halloween, folks. Pat, do what I did and import a woman from a foreign country. I’ve never understood a word she says. And every time she tries to escape, I remind her that she needs me for her green card. Win win for everyone.

2024-10-30 00:25:30 +0000 UTCI remember when I was a kid and The Blob was coming out in theaters. I’d see the ads for it on tv every day, and they used to scare the crap out of me.

2024-10-30 00:16:50 +0000 UTCPat, you’re dating the wrong women. Stop playing the game of people who you don’t even want to date! I met my husband on hinge (I asked him out and we went for a cheap dinner and back to his). There is hope lol but please stop wasting your time on those who don’t deserve it. We love you 🎃

2024-10-29 21:00:09 +0000 UTCPat if you ever see this: There's a book on Audible called Dating Essentials For Men by Dr. Robert Glover. The title and the cover are super dull, but it's really good practical advice about dating, written by a therapist who became single later in life. All I can tell you is I relate to your stories and the book helped me a lot with my own dating. Love you buddy! :)
