S1E13: Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead (SEASON FINALE)
May 03, 2022 02:21 - 1 hour - 80.9 MBHey there, freaks and geeks. We've made it to the FINALE! This season's last episode puts George Romero front and center with his zombie classics: Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead. Ten years apart and yet they go wonderfully together. You can't go wrong adding these to your watch list. Night of the Living Dead can be found on Amazon Prime and Dawn of the Dead can be streamed on YouTube! Thanks for listening!
S1E12: House on Haunted Hill (1959 vs 1999)
April 22, 2022 18:11 - 1 hour - 81.7 MBHey there, freaks and geeks! In this episode, Lyss, Coop and Beck compare and contrast William Castle's original 1959 movie with William Malone's 1999 remake. Both have their own takes on five strangers making it through a night in a haunted mansion with promises of a large sum of cash if they "survive." If you haven't seen either of these movies, we highly suggest taking a look. Both movies are sure to impress.
S1E11: House of Wax (1953) vs House of Wax (2005)
April 03, 2022 22:18 - 1 hour - 96.7 MBHowdy, basement dwellers. It's Paris Hilton night. Ok, so maybe not exactly, but she IS the reason why Lys, Coop and Bex watched the remake of House of Wax in the first place. In this episode, your three hosts compare and contrast the 1953 and 2005 versions of House of Wax. And who doesn't love a little Vincent Price? Thanks for listening!
S1E10: 13 Ghosts (1960) vs Thir13en Ghosts (2001)
March 20, 2022 18:20 - 1 hour - 79.1 MBHey there, freaks and geeks! In this episode, Lyss, Coop and Bex compare William Castle's 1960 original 13 Ghosts against Steve Beck's 2001 remake: Thir13en Ghosts. Although they have similar names and basic plot, these two movies stand wonderfully on their own. Two completely different experiences that make you glad you watched them. 13 Ghosts can be found on Prime Video and Apple TV and Thir13en Ghosts can be seen on Netflix. Thanks for listening!
S1E9: The Blob and The Stuff
March 07, 2022 02:50 - 1 hour - 84.7 MBHey there, basement dwellers! It creeps, leaps, slides and glides. It's sticky, slimy and all around bad. And for crying out loud, DO NOT EAT IT! This week we discuss Chuck Russel's 1988 version of The Blob and Larry Cohen's The Stuff. Two very interesting movies focusing around strange substances that take over town. You can watch The Blob on Prime Video and The Stuff on Shudder. Thanks for listening!
S1E8: Scream, Blacula, Scream and Bones (2001)
February 20, 2022 17:51 - 1 hour - 75.1 MBHey there, basement dwellers! This (bi)week's episode is all about Pam Grier. Well, sort of. We compare Scream, Blacula, Scream (1973) with William Marshall reprising his role as Prince Mamuwalde, and the 2001 movie Bones starring Snoop Dogg as Jimmy Bones. Both have an amazing performance by Pam Grier as she struggles to help our male leads. Not to mention they both have extraordinary style. You can watch both for free on Tubi. Thanks for listening!
S1E7: Blacula and Vampires vs. The Bronx
February 07, 2022 03:58 - 1 hour - 191 MBHey there, freaks and geeks! In this episode, your three hosts talk about William Crain's Blacula (1972) and Oz Rodriguez's Vampires vs The Bronx (2020). One shows the struggle of a sole vampire trying to fit in the modern world, while the other shows the struggle of Bronx teens standing their ground against an opposing vampire threat. Two completely unique films that definitely deserve a watch. You can find Blacula on Amazon Prime and Vampires vs The Bronx on Netflix. Thanks for listening!

January 25, 2022 02:03 - 1 hour - 200 MBHey, Freaks and Geeks. TRIGGER WARNING!!!

Lyss, Coop and Beck compare and contrast Mitchell Lichtenstein's Teeth and Karyn Kusama's Jennifer's Body. Oh boy, do these movies spark some discussion. You can watch Teeth on Tubi and Jennifer's Body on Amazon Prime. Thanks for listening!
S1E5: Color out of Space and Willy's Wonderland
January 18, 2022 18:59 - 1 hour - 174 MBHey y'all. It's "Nic" Cage Night! Listen to Lyss, Coop and Becky compare and contrast Richard Stanley's Color out of Space against Kevin Lewis' Willy's Wonderland. Two completely different performances by none other than THE Nicolas Cage. We highly recommend both of these movies, so check them out before you tune in. Color out of Space can be found on Netflix and Willy's Wonderland on Hulu. Thanks for listening!
S1E4: Thankskilling and Silent Night, Deadly Night
December 27, 2021 22:25 - 1 hour - 228 MBBetter late than never! In this Holiday episode, Lyss, Coop and Beck compare the questionable work of Jordan Downey's Thankskilling against a surprisingly better directed piece: Silent Night, Deadly Night. Or at least try to. Honestly, the only real relation between them is that they have holidays for a theme. Even the watchability is unmatched. Either way, the Psychotronic Underground hosts wasted their time watching these movies so you don't have to waste yours. Both of these movies can be...
S1E3: From Beyond and Society
December 12, 2021 07:00 - 1 hour - 69.4 MBWhen it comes to body horror, no one else does it quite like Brian Yuzna. Join Lyss, Cooper and Becky in Psychotronic Underground podcast episode 3 as we compare his movies: From Beyond and Society. Squeamish? That's OK, we've watched them so you don't have to. However, if you are ever interested, both movies can be found on Tubi. Thanks for listening!
