Talking with Ziggy Zapata of The Mystrys
Let’s Talk About Witch Girls! I touched on this excellent slab of Aussie garage punk on my Halloween Nuggets playlist a few years ago (that comp does not appear to be on Spotify anymore, which renders the playlist useless—but you should totally buy the 3-disc set. It’s well worth it!), but it’s time I really… Read More ›
BP Podcast, Ep 44: “A Friday the 13th Revisit, Part 1”
On this podcast episode, we’re back with the man behind the mask and a Friday the 13th revisit, starting with parts 1 – 6!
Characters We Love: A Father’s Day Tribute
The day is now dust, but happy belated Father’s Day to all of my wonderful father friends. And while some celebrated a delightful dad, others may be missing, mourning, or wondering what a father figure could be. Absence is difficult no matter the reason, but sometimes a piece of the void can be filled with… Read More ›
Movies We Love: ‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’ (2019)
I know the website has been lacking in content recently—and I apologize for that—but I couldn’t not write at least a few words about Godzilla: King of the Monsters. And we really do have some things kicking around for the Halloween season, and hopefully before. And hey, we’ve been doing the podcast regularly. Semi-regularly. Sometimes…. Read More ›
BP Podcast, Episode 42: “Our 2009 Movie Superlatives”
Oh, shit — we’re back with a “new” BP podcast episode! We say “new” because it was actually recorded two month ago in March and has been sitting stagnant, unedited, while life got super-crazy. But here we are! On this episode of the BP podcast, we celebrate our 10-year wedding anniversary by looking back at… Read More ›
BP Podcast, Episode 41: “Stupid Sexy Thriller Sequels”
Join us as we talk about two sexy thriller sequels – Showgirls 2: Penny’s from Heaven and Basic Instinct 2! (The term “sexy” is up for debate.) In honor of February and Valentine’s Day, we’re amping up our sexy thriller talk with a couple of sequels inspired by their Paul Verhoeven counterparts! One is cheeky, two and a half hours… Read More ›
Kissin’ Time: A KISS Valentine Playlist
I love KISS. Joanna got our family tickets to see them on the End of the Road tour this summer. This is all the reason I need to put together a Valentine-themed KISS playlist. Some of these songs are on the nose, some are innuendo, some just have ‘love’ in the title and some are… Read More ›
BP Podcast, Episode 40: “A Rockin’ New Year’s Countdown”
Happy New Year! We’re back with our first podcast of 2019! Yes, it’s mid-January, but the podcast is back with a rockin’ New Year’s countdown of our favorite movie musical moments! No, we’re not talking about musicals – just perfectly placed songs in genre movies. (Think: the soundtrack to A Nightmare on Elm Street 4:… Read More ›
A Christmas Playlist: Part 2
Two years ago, I posted up a short playlist of a half dozen rock n’ roll Christmas songs. Since rock n’ rollers and metalheads have been banging out holiday jams aplenty in the past decade or so, here are 10 more. Cheap Trick- Christmas Christmas. Cheap Trick are no stranger to Christmas tunes, with holiday-themed singles… Read More ›
