Waterworld
July 5, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Waterworld
Your buoyant hosts are joined by JustSarah and PissMa to discuss the 1995 eco-apocalyptic amusement park ride Fish Dad, ah I mean, Gentleman Guppy, erm I mean, Waterworld. One word. Waterworld. Is this a good movie? Where is dry land? Should we get lower back tattoos? And perhaps the most important question of all, has Mitsu ever been inside the water?

1990: The Bronx Warriors (1990: I guerrieri del Bronx)

Basement Radio
1990: The Bronx Warriors (1990: I guerrieri del Bronx)
Mitsu has the VID and I don't mean VIDEO, so PissMa and Sontag join me (Koopa) in the studio to discuss Enzo Castellari's antipasto-apocalypse genre film - 1990: The Bronx Warriors, released in 1982. This film has so much going on. From all the characters being named by your 5th grade mind - Trash, Ice, Golem, Ogre, Witch - to Fred Williamson and Vic Morrow delivering pretty great performances, even when surrounded by absurdity.

Turbo Kid
June 14, 2024 5:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Turbo Kid
We review the distressed t-shirt of post-apocalyptic movies to kick off our WASTELAND theme. Join your favorite voice jockeys as we discuss RKSS' Turbo Kid, released officially on VHS in 2015. Michael Ironside swallows his ego to star in this absolute piece of trash. It has some good gore though. Joined live in the studio by Piss-Ma, and with special call-in guests Shia LeBeouf and Drake.

The Deadly Spawn
June 7, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
The Deadly Spawn
Our first ever Basement movie night in a non-Basement space! Mitsu and I, or is it I and Mitsu, are still high from our screening of The Deadly Spawn at the 4star theater. But not as high as whatever these old ladies are smoking in this week's movie, making some of the most god-awful/god-fearing vegetarian food this veg has ever laid there eyes on. Honestly, it's more scary than the film. Joined briefly by Stella of Neon Shrines.

The Faculty
May 31, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
The Faculty
Come with us on a journey to 1998 as we indulge the KWill/RobRod 1998 joint - The Faculty. Why did they cut Kidada Jones out of this film? Is Stokely named after Stokely Carmichael who passed away the same year? Did the character of Zeke inspire Hartnett's next character Trip Fontaine in the Virgin Suicides. All questions we don't answer. Special guests Suzanne and Boney. Come to the 4star next week! Tuesday at 7pm! Tickets here: https://www.4-star-movies.com/calendar-of-events/secret-80s-horror-night-provided-by-the-basement-700-pm

Communion
April 19, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Communion
Our hosts discuss the wonder that is Walken, with plenty of impressions of the Astoria-born actor playing an even-more-NY-er NY-er from Austin. That's Whitley Streiber, a writer who turned his real-life abduction experience into this strange film.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space
April 12, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Hey Santa Cruz! Quit being so boring. Embrace these other-wordly visitors and abandon your puritanical ways! On this episode, your debaucherous hosts are joined by Stella and JoJo of Neon Shrines to talk all things "Klown" and why we are so scared of them. Something we never got to the bottom of though : Klowns with a K?
Of course, we are talking about Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Hilarity ensues.

Funny Games
April 5, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Funny Games
Boney and PissMA join us to talk about Michael Haneke's Funny Games, the 1997 one not the remake, which he also made, which is exactly the same so I guess we could be talking about that one as well. Like what is reality even? If we talk about something on the radio doesn't that make it real? Oh god, I hope not. What ein alptraum. Anyways, Haneke delivers a heavy handed critique of the bourgeoisie, but there are things to be gleaned from it, like whats happening off screen and how filmmaking can sometimes be about getting out of the way.

Cemetery Man
March 22, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Cemetery Man
What an exciting episode about one of the most mundane things you could do with your life. Killing zombies! Join us to discuss the bureaucratic rebel yell that is Cemetery Man, or its more fitting title Dellamorte Dellamore. This is a movie that operates on so many levels and changes tone at least 4 times with more than a few döppelgangers and art references to throw you off. Ross from the North Bay joins our regular guest PissMa to try and figure out why this is the "last great Italian Horror Film" on our 50th episode.

Pieces
March 15, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Pieces
Join us as we dive in to the wild world of Juan Piquer Simón's mirror-shattering masterpiece Pieces. Our very first entry in a month-long series we are calling Euro-Trash, Pieces is the kind of movie that could only exist in "Boston". Joined by very special guest Ani and Just Sarah in the studio.

Boardinghouse
March 8, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Boardinghouse
As our SOV month comes to a close, we celebrate the first horror film to be shot on video, John Wintergate's Boardinghouse. Joined in the studio by PissMa.

The Dope Game
February 23, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
The Dope Game
Come on down to the basement. You can park your car right outside. We'll be cozying up next to the TV, double-fisting shrimp cocktails, having one sided-phone conversations, and who knows, we might even go down to the vending machine. The vending machine? Yeah, the vending machine. I'm gonna go down to the vending machine. Joined by PissMa, Jesus y Navajas.

Feeders
February 16, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Feeders
What can we say about Feeders? This is the type of movie that some would describe as "so bad it's good" which completely misses the point. Tune in as Mitsu, PissMa, and Koopa dissect the vocabulary of this SOV movie that was made for $500 in 5 days. Also, we stop at a few rest areas and frontage roads.

Killing Spree
February 9, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Killing Spree
Special thanks to Kentucky Fried Chicken and Domino's Pizza for this episode and for supporting the 1987 horror film Killing Spree, directed by Tim Ritter. Some deep questions here like "How did you get the name Stewmaster?", "Where did you get your driver's license?" and most importantly "Why is she writing this all down?" are answered. Special guest PissMa.

Tank Girl
February 2, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Tank Girl
What happens when you have a huge budget, the entire arsenal of Spencer's Gifts at your disposal, the Freddy's Dead director and Ice T? Well, you get something vaguely resembling the anarcho-punk comic Tank Girl. This episode begs the real question - Why didn't we do a whole month of kangaroo movies? Joined by Boney and JoJo.


Audition
January 26, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Audition
We watched a good movie! JK, they are all good but this one is like a real film. Listen to us wax poetic about Takashi Miike's Audition. Piss Ma joins your lovely hosts for this late 90s rom-com rug cutter starring Ryo Ishibashi, Jun Kunimura and Eihi Shiina. Kiri-kiri-kiriiiiiiii.


Lady Terminator
January 12, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Lady Terminator
Join us as we venture out between the Indian and Pacific Oceans in search of the South Sea Queen, with Tjut Djalil's 1988 horror-fantasy action film Lady Terminator. Will Tania be the vessle by which the Queen can exact her 100 year revenge or will rising pop star Erica stab her in the back? Mitsu and Koopa are joined by Boney.

Hard Ticket to Hawaii
January 5, 2024 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Hard Ticket to Hawaii
Join us in the jacuzzi (we think better there) and kick off the new year with our month-long series: LETHAL LADIES. On this episode we punch our Hard Ticket to Hawaii and try to understand why the snake had cancer, all of this trouble was made for people growing weed, and what exactly is wrong with Seth's henchman Kimo.
Special guest Gia.

Species 2
December 15, 2023 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Species 2
Last episode of the year and its a two-zey. Join Mitsu, Koopa and Boney as they discuss the Giger-verse but more importantly, put an official end to this third season of part twos. See you in the new year tapeheads.

Jack Frost
December 8, 2023 6:00pm

 

Basement Radio
Jack Frost
Hold my antifreeze Mitsu, ahem, Merry Xmas! Grab your hair-dryers, run the bath and join us as we warm our hands by the fire of Jack Frost.
