Episode 204: Slumber Party Massacre II

LISTEN NOW

If you haven’t seen the first Slumber Party Massacre, don’t worry – there is no need to watch it if you want to enjoy our episode on Slumber Party Massacre II. This bizarre little movie from 1987 is barely a feature film, and that’s not just because it’s only 77 minutes long with credits. And yet there is so much to discuss in that short runtime. How good could a horror-comedy starring the heir to the Little Caesar’s empire playing a rockabilly serial killer with a guitar-drill as a murder weapon be? (Yes, you read all of that correctly.) Well, grab a bottle of champagne & some loose Oreos, and we’ll let you know. Plus, we’ll discuss Matt’s Giallo room, Atanas Ilitch’s brief music career, and of course that damn blow-up doll. If you’re gonna go all the way with one of our episodes, make it this one.

Slumber Party Massacre II stars Crystal Bernard, Kimberly McArthur, Juliette Cummins, Patrick Lowe, Heidi Kozak, Joel Hoffman, Scott Westmoreland, Jennifer Rhodes, Cindy Eilbacher, Michael Delano, Hamilton Mitchell, and Atanas Ilitch. Directed by Deborah Brock.

WHAT'S HAPPENING ON THE PATREON THIS WEEK

While Dustin and Nathan were somewhat divided on the 2014 reboot, they are very much aligned on how bad Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is. The second and last entry in the Platinum Dunes universe for the Turtles, Out of the Shadows is a sequel with an identity crisis. Is it a goofy, over the top fun time at the movies, or is it stuck with the grounded, semi-serious tone of the first film? It seems to be at odds with itself for its nearly 2-hour runtime; Bebop and Rocksteady rule, though.

Dustin promised last season that this season we’d cover the movie that potentially has what he believes to be the worst death on screen, and we’re covering it next week.
Also, he wants to play a game.
