For movie geeks, by movie geeks.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 109

 Ok nerds, tape up your glasses and join us as we watch this week's Sofa Theater feature...the horribly mis-marketed SPLICE. Plus book-ended geek activities, that wraps up with a full recap of Mega Piranha and a massive rant about Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull.

All that plus somewhere in this episode's genetic code we discover... live-Tweeting award ceremonies, chick hips, The British Office, Frozen, editing profanity for TV, Jackson Rathbone, They CGI’ed her face!, The Natalie Portman laugh, In the Name of the King, McCarthyism, Ray Liotta’s acting, Ricky Gervais, Kamikaze fish, shirtless Indy, Getting the carpet to match the drapes, 20mm NERF guns, Shia LaBeouf, Creed-hating wolves, simple frozen instructions, The Dazed and Confused post-Xmas activities, Tiffany is Porkins, Dread, helicopters on sticks, Harrison Ford…old as fuck!, Beakman’s World and why is the wire razor sharp??

Spoiler Alert: Since SPLICE is still a relatively new release to DVD, be sure you watch it before listening to this episode. Because, as usual, we leave no spoiler unturned.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 108.2

Rejoin us in The Bastion of Awesomeness for this week's Sofa Theater feature: George Romero's MARTIN. What makes a vampire? And who is to blame when people are driven crazy? Delve into vampirism lore, religious zealots, a misunderstood teen and a deteriorating small town in Philadelphia. Plus One from the Vaults memories from the star of Martin himself - John Amplas!!

All that and hatin’ on magicians, phantom ponytail, answering random questions, early movie memories, a new Movie Meltdown trend item and creepy fetishes with gross stories. (Movie Meltdown takes no responsibility for the grossness of Marlena's stories.)

Spoiler Alert: There are still many people that haven't seen Martin. If that applies to you - go watch Martin before listening, because we cover lots of spoilers.
