211 - Time For Some Punch Kicking


This week on TheAvod your friends Count Vardulon and DM watch two movies about science-enhanced men and a third movie about sex and death.

Frozen in Fear is surprisingly terrible given its pedigree, and Manborg is simply mind blowing. Tune in to learn what isn't a "stinger" and stay to hear a rant about Eli Roth.

209 - Anything But Hirsute


This week your friends Count Vardulon and DM watch half of the Netflix original series, Hemlock Grove. By some miracle, Eli Roth only comes up once when talking about the show he executively produced. Other things that come up include folkore, spoilers, and pretty-boys. In addition to nearly seven hours of television, DM and the Count watched a loonie movie that only felt like it was seven hours long. Tune in to find out who's got a lot of time on their hands, and stay to hear some boderline racist film commentary from the 1970s.

208 - Life, the Universe, and Everything


This week your friends Count Vardulon and DM watch three "numbered" movies.

Click here to have your say whether any of these films should be included an official horror canon.
