Really Awful Movies: Ep 458 – Zombeavers

This week on the podcast, add another critter to the list of creature features/nature run amok flicks. If you thought rabbits in Night of the Lepus was pushing the envelope, well…here…we’ve got beavers.

Zombeavers is from the producers of American Pie, so there are of course lots of the expected jokes.

This one debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival of all places, and is a bit smarter than you’d think (but not by much).

Really Awful Movies: Ep 437 – Night of the Living Dead 1990

Today on the Really Awful Movies Podcast, Tom Savini’s Night of the Living Dead.

Tony Todd (Candyman) takes on the iconic Duane Jones role from the 1968 George A. Romero original.

Much maligned when it first came out, this is not nearly as bad as critics say (but by the same token, isn’t as great as some people claim in hindsight either).

Really Awful Movies: Ep 436 – Primal Rage

Primal Rage!

Genre legend Bo Svenson (The Inglorious Bastards/Walking Tall/Snow Beast) plays Florida college research geek Dr. Ethridge, who is toiling away on a protein that will revolutionize how we treat Alzheimer’s disease.

It’s so revolutionary in fact, that the dean threatens to pull his funding if he doesn’t make a scientific breakthrough in two months (publish or perish, right?)

Frank Duffy, a hard-drinking/smoking gonzo journalist for the school paper, decides to investigate the goings-on at Ethridge’s lab.

When he’s bitten by a baboon, a “new party animal on campus” is unleashed.

This one is co-written by Umberto Lenzi, so you know it’s bonkers!
