SAW II (Unrated) Commentary Track

Xavier did nothing wrong! And now that we've got your attention, welcome to the second installment of Saw n' A Movie, the commentary series that was in the safe the whole time. Spoilers. Join us as we discuss Saw II, first-time director Darren Lynn Bousman's inaugural dip into the needle-pit that would shape the franchise to this very day, and the first time America heard Tobin Bell lecture us about time management. We talk the brilliant set-design, the balancing act between traps and story the other films would struggle with, the return of Shawnee Smith as the world's first reverse-Scream Queen, and the beginnings of The Curse of Bouseman. Meanwhile, Cody continues his quest to slowly poison himself with Malort like he's the mom from Flowers In The Attic.

SAW Commentary Track

 
Hello, listeners. We'd like to play a commentary. If it's [MONTH TAPE IS BEING PLAYED], it must be BOP! And tonight, the crew is untangling the first knot in the increasingly convoluted horror juggernaut that is SAW, in the first of a new BOP n' A Movie commentary series! The Elwes are screaming and the Malort is flowing as they discuss the very first James Wan and Leigh Whannell joint, the ingenious filmmaking cheats that allowed an inexperienced production to both surpass expectations and accidentally create an era-defining style, the immediate pop culture royal treatment the nearly DTV film received, how the influx of Saw-alikes changed perception of the original, and how Tobin Bell getting off that floor is still shocking every goddamn time-- Spoilers. Now be a mensch and rewind that tape for the next guy, cool?

MAD HEIDI - Mini BOP

Swissploitation! The genre you never knew you needed or knew existed. Mainly because it didn't until this very moment! In this bite sized BOP, Mike takes a cheese grater to the mad auspices of Casper Van Dien as THE PRESIDENT OF SWITZERLAND. The greatest credit in human history. Anyway, MAD HEIDI, the pure crowdfunded indie that picked up major lactose-related steam this year and is out now on VOD and blu-ray! A blood gushing and Grindhouse dirty parody of the classic swiss tale of Heidi built for the Psycho Goreman loving crowd that left Mike in curdles of ecstasy.
