Exploiteers have long traded in cheeky warnings or breathless disclaimers pleading with audiences to beware before laying peepers on the flickering horrors ahead. Insta-auteurs Alex Aja and Greg Levasseur could've done the same for High Tension -- and actually mean it. In this schlockcast, yours truly's pulmonary palpitations subside just long enough for a 5-star hurrah over this masterful white-knuckler from France (!?!).

Long out of print, Razor Blade Smile pops out of its digital coffin just in time for Halloween looking and sounding better than ever, which is easy when you've got Eileen Daly to ogle! (Correction: RBS isn't anamorphic.) Yuks and, um, yucks make The Janitor a demented delight. Plus, CineSchlocker idol William Winckler returns with his devilishly nostalgic Frankenstein vs. The Creature From Blood Cove. Listen using the handy Online DVD Talk Radio Player or download the complete schlockcast (18 mins, 11 mb).

Print vs. Podcast: How is the schlockcast format? I've received lots of praise, but are there more longtimers like Scott out there than I realize? Let me know!

Been sulking because you're four flicks shy of completing your Andy Sidaris Collection? Me too. Come Nov. 15, though, Andy and Arlene's new distributor will reboot the long-stalled series with two volumes of a retitled "Triple B Collection." These 3-flick bundles of jigglin' joy are packed with the same explosive extras we've come to expect from Andy, but at a bargain 3-for-$20 price point! The downside?

Vol. 1: Malibu Express, Hard Ticket to Hawaii, Fit to Kill
Vol. 2: Picasso Trigger, Guns, The Dallas Connection

Yep, we faithful gotta repurchase four flicks to get the unreleased Fit to Kill and Dallas Connection. Arlene assures me this was the distributor's decision and reckons the price being "so good" will comfort any grousers. I agree.

Besides, now we're just two flicks -- Day of the Warrior and Return to Savage Beach -- away from tying a bodacious bow around Andy's 12-opus ode to Bullets, Bombs and Babes!

By the way, notice how Julie Strain's heavenly hiney has been hidden ...

Dern you, Janet Jackson!!!

Hi Noel,

I've been following your CineSchlock-O-Rama for a long time. (Maybe from the beginning?) And, I've enjoyed them a lot! However, I haven't been following much since you switched to your "Schlockcasts." In fact, I am just now listening to my first one. And I have to say, PLEASE bring back the written format.

Remember when yours truly got to booze 'n' blues with the Masters of Horror? Well, now they've got their own tunes. Two CDs worth! Give your ears a good bleedin' over at MySpace. That's where you can also enter to win a Masters of Horror snowboard (!?!) and get an eyeful of the horror anthology's official pin-up ...

Wanna be my friend, Juliya?

Oh yeah, the 13-episode role call of horror's finest starts Oct. 28 on Showtime.

CineSchlocker Blaine Wasylkiw is at it again. He's answering his schlock-o-riffic short Rotten Shaolin Zombies with his first full-length feature, The Muffin Man! Check out Blaine's blog for more on his deadly day-olds.

In recognition of National Coming Out Day, here's a tidbit from CineSchlocker idol David DeCoteau:

Final Stab will have its North American broadcast premiere on OutTV at 9 p.m. October 13th! This exclusive Halloween presentation will be with the rare widescreen 2.35:1 letterbox version not seen on TV anywhere in the world!

Congrats, David. Sure beats the plain o' fullframe disc, eh?

Misty Mundae is the most popular B-siren of today's sinema scene. But what if she's, like, so over it? What if the sapphic flower child's zipped up her hip huggers for good? Tongue rassled Darian Caine for the last time!?! Does Seduction Cinema's Mike Raso panic? Heavens no, the latter-day exploiteer simply throws open the vaults and dusts off his years-old, unreleased directorial debut The Seduction of Misty Mundae.

In this schlockcast, yours truly ogles Mike's lusty love note to '70s erotica along with four more randier cuts of Ms. Mundae's most molten oldies now being showcased as her Euro-Vixen Collection. Tangentially, how interesting that, 33 years later, Mr. Raso's studio has nearly single-handedly resurrected a genre completely uprooted by the Triple-X cultural climax joyfully chronicled in Inside Deep Throat?

While it's easy to love Bruce Campbell, his much ballyhoo'd Man with the Screaming Brain is far, far -- Bulgaria far -- from a scream. In fact, CineSchlockers will likely prefer his hamming in Alien Apocalypse, which unlike Screaming Brain, the B-idol neither wrote nor directed. Meanwhile, the slapstick shocks in Dead & Breakfast owe mucho to Mr. Campbell's Evil Dead pictures, but never quite pay off despite the best efforts of next-gen genre stars Ever Caradine and Oz Perkins.

CineSchlock-O-Rama's Most Wanted stands down, sadly, from its Red Sequin Alert as Liberace: Behind the Music -- the competing movie o' the week -- has debuted instead of Andy Robinson's 1988 delight. Blue Underground cracks the coffin on all four Blind Dead pictures as only they can. CineSchlocker idol Jim Wynorski returns with his Halloween hooter fest The Witches of Breastwick. (Bonus alert: Don't miss Glori-Anne Gilbert's eye-popping romp atop a washing machine in Vampire Callgirls!)

Finally, a glowering glance at Horror Business, a frightfully dismal doc traveling the festival circuit, though not yet available on DVD. Listen using the handy Online DVD Talk Radio Player or download the complete schlockcast (32 mins, 18 mb).
