Episode The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 (1986) Cover

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 (1986)

In 1986, Tobe Hooper returns to his own creation, cranking the chainsaw speed to “unhinged,” and swapping the original’s documentary-style dread for neon-lit chaos, pitch-black humor, and a surprising amount of chainsaw-related enthusiasm. The gang's all here from the original Texas Chainsaw: Leatherface, Drayton Sawyer, and even the corpse of the hitchhiker, affectionally referred to as "Nubbins." Add a new sibling into the mix with scene stealing, Chop-Top, played by Bill Moseley, a vengeful Lieutenant "Lefty" Enright, played by Dennis Hopper, and Caroline Williams delivering a powerful performance as the criminally underrated, final girl and small-town DJ, Stretch. What is this blatant display of mindfuckery? Why it's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2, of course. The buzz is back! Hosts: Bart Shannon, Lindsey Roberts Guest: Joey Carr Music provided by MKE.

Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (1985)

What do you do in a film franchise when you title one of the installments, "The Final Chapter"? Why, you title the next one "A New Beginning" and keep that gravy train rolling! Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, was panned by critics and loathed by fans for tossing a fake Jason into the bloody mayhem. That's a shocking reaction for a film that shot some scenes in Corey Feldman's backyard. But, aside from these trivialities and the debate on whether this is actually a horror comedy, the film was selected because of the recent passing of actor, Corey Parker, who makes an appearance in the film as Pete, the greaser. So, let's celebrate the performances by Parker and and Miguel A. Núñez Jr. (Return of the Living Dead) who gave their all in a film that certainly didn't deserve it.
