Plus we try to figure out how many ways we can shove Halloween candy into our faces. Why pulpy orange juice and electronics don‘t mix. The secret joy of smelling your new Halloween costumes. All that plus the confusion that can only be brought on by microchips and rock dust.

“Well hell, if I knew that’s all it was gonna take to disintegrate kid’s faces I would have done this a long time ago.”

Movie Meltdown - Episode 99

With this week's Sofa Theater feature we delve into childish humor and childhood trauma as we take a look at DERRICK comedy's first feature film - Mystery Team. Not only do we discover a great movie with an infectious sense of humor, but along the way we find an impressive script, amazing performances and we may just stumble across a little more truth in this movie than we are comfortable with.

Plus we also feature an interesting and informative interview with the film's director - Dan Eckman.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 98.2

This episode Movie Meltdown asks the horrific question…what would you do if you found out your child was evil?? As we discuss "The  Bad Seed", we look at the structure of the film itself, the style of the actors and address the homicidal maniac-isms that they are referenced in the script. So what creates a killer? Genetics or environment?

WARNING: Triple spoiler warnings are thrown out in this episode, as we freely discuss the movie, the book and the super secret ending that we were warned, by the filmmakers, not to reveal. Whatever, we do what we want. BUT, we warn you now, go see the movie/read the book before you listen if you don't want to know what happens.

“Some people are just born bad.”
