The Bristol Bad Film Club was co-founded by Timon Singh, a lifelong aficionado of terrible monster movies and junk cinema, who screens stinkers like Samurai Cop and Lifeforce.

They do once-a-month screenings, with the major criterion being “there must be a bar present at the venue.” They’ve rented out the city’s planetarium and have done other unique screenings.

On this podcast, we chat about Mathilda May, David Hasselhoff, Patrick Stewart, Caroline Munro, Electric Boogaloo: The Wild Untold Story of Cannon Films, Get Even, Pulgasari and Vigilante.

Vigilante was directed by one of our faves (William Lustig of Maniac fame) and stars many of our faves from the b movie circuit: Robert Forster, Fred Williamson, Steve James and the one and only Joe Spinell.

We first got wind of Erin R. Ryan through her stellar work in Babysitter Massacre, a low budget homage to 80s slashers. She was a standout there and we noticed we’d seen her in other things as well.

The Ohioan has appeared in Scarewaves, Haunted House on Sorority Row, and Kill That Bitch among others. She’s probably best known for her role as Angel in Bath Salt Zombies and she frequently works with indie director Henrique Couto.

We chat about what it’s like being a working actress in indie horror, how she got started in the business, the burgeoning indie scene in the Midwest, and of course, what we mean when we use the term “Scream Queen.”

***A special edition of the podcast, from Shock Stock!***

Shock Stock is a fun-filled horror convention/festival, which takes place in London Ontario, three hours outside of Toronto and two hours outside of Detroit Michigan.

This is a three-day celebration of all things horror. And if the event itself wasn’t enough, there are some damn-fine parties associated with it (and we couldn’t help but indulge). We salute Shock Stock with this podcast.
