We got a Friday the 13th in October this year so you KNOW Matt had to pull the trigger on his favorite (?) of the franchise, FRIDAY THE 13TH PART V: A NEW BEGINNING (1985)! Also known as “the one without Jason,” this movie is pretty divisive in the horror community – as well as between your HMN hosts. There’s a lot to unpack and we’re not even going to camp this time around, so strap in and just enjoy the ride. We’re off to the nuthouse this week on Horror Movie Night!

In the Spring of 1983, ‘Til Tuesday transformed from a new band into the winners of Boston’s Rock & Rumble competition. After quickly securing a deal with Epic Records, they released their debut album Voices Carry. Thanks to regular airplay on MTV, the title track rose to #8 on the Billboard Hot 100. Sadly, this unique band could never again match the success of the song. This week, we’re joined by writer, musician, and Aimee Mann enthusiast Daniel Corey to discuss why we believe ‘Til Tuesday’s voices should have carried them much higher up the charts.

It’s finally October and we’re here… for THE FEAR! This strange 1995 blend of psychological slasher and killer mannequin on the loose is a great time capsule to a time without cellphones but plenty of Christmas theme parks. Take it from us, if you ever get invited to a remote cabin to talk about what scares you, just politely decline and you won’t end up strangled in the attic on top of a pile of possibly-imaginary money. Easy!

You know that awesome Bruce Springsteen song “On The Dark Side” that actually isn’t Bruce Springsteen at all? That’s John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band, and I’d venture to say that I’m not alone in thinking it was The Boss for many years. We HAD to bring in some experts to shed some light on this wild sound-alike, so this week, we’re joined by Hal Schwartz and Flynn McLean of the None But The Brave podcast. These Bruce enthusiasts help us decide if we should throw thunder on these beaver boys.

As Listener Submitted Month comes to a close and October begins, we felt compelled to watch something very Halloween-coded. This was perhaps not our best decision, because HACK O LANTERN (1988) is pretty much objectively a terrible movie… While there IS an inexplicable heavy metal music video scene, there is also no murderous jack-o-lantern-faced killer to be seen, so we would’ve felt a bit ripped off if we hadn’t watched it for free on our reliable friend TUBI. Get into the spooky spirit a week early with us and watch out for girls with pentagram tattoos/brands on their buttcheeks!

Some things never go out of style… like watching Nazis get disintegrated by an evil cosmic entity. Bonus points for the big bad looking like En Sabah Nur (that’s Apocalypse for you normal people out there) and a fantastic albeit forgotten Tangerine Dream soundtrack. We’re moving along with Listener Submitted Month by taking a visit to THE KEEP (1983) and we hope you like tangents cuz boy we got a surplus of them this week!

Despite the song’s lyrics that illustrate Meredith Brooks’ multitude of qualities and flaws, it’s the first line of the chorus of “Bitch” that turned heads in 1997. After a long music career that spanned three decades, this undeniably catchy pop song put the veteran singer and guitarist on the map. The song felt empowering and special when it came out, but how does it hold up now? And did Meredith turn out to be an artist we SHOULD actually be paying attention to? Just when we think we got her figured out, the season’s already changin’ on today’s episode.

Much like Aperol, Italian horror can be a bit of an acquired taste, but this week’s listener submission is anything but… Claudio Fragasso’s NIGHT KILLER (1990) is 100% pure HMN fuel, featuring a rubber mask killer, a “hysteric” female lead, psychosexual Stockholm Syndrome, and even a bit of the Curse of Thorn energy if you look hard enough at it. It’s always a blast when we come across forgotten treasures like this, and we can forgive the rest of this month’s picks if only because this one was such a fun watch!

This week on One Hit Thunder, we’re joined by Wolves of Glendale keyboardist and vocalist Tom McGovern to explore the enigmatic world of The La’s and their timeless hit “There She Goes”. This episode is a tale of potential unfulfilled, as The La’s were seemingly destined for Britpop fame and fortune, only to be stymied by their own strange choices. Did The La’s bring the thunder despite getting in their own way time and time again? Stay tuned to find out.

Some movies we discuss are very superficial: kills, nudity, profanity and poor life decisions, but others ask the big questions in life, like “Who made who? Who made you?” That’s right, we’re gassing up the big rig and hitting the highway blasting AC/DC with Stephen King’s one and only directorial outing, MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE (1986). While a vocal minority of fans swear it was ghost-directed by George Romero, we know who was really behind the camera… Cocaine. This is about par for the course for Listener Submitted Month, so prepare yourself for 4 weeks of this kind of high-brow discussion on Horror Movie Night!

In 1999, filmmaker Baz Luhrmann had an unexpected radio hit with “Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen)”, a near perfect spoken-word piece that offered god-tier level advice to graduating seniors. It’s hard to explain why this song works or how powerful it is without just breaking down every word of it, so we did just that. This week, we get deep, emotional, and honest, thanks to a commencement speech and a trip-hop beat.

Since we’re doing Happy Christmas Matt had to find a different religious piece of Media for Dylan to take in. This time, however, it’s something they both have nostalgia towards… Veggie Tales!
