BMMI Episode 038: Bat Country

Leave a comment

BatCountry_Poster

Don’t be confused by the giant manbat in the sky; this isn’t a vampire movie. Bat Country stars four kids that find a cave near their neighborhood and bond over their new-found love of all things bats. Until they find a house in the cave. And in the house a skeleton of a giant bat that comes to life. At first the kids have fun with their new bat friend, playing along with what they think is harmless pranks and rivalry. But after one of them is suddenly snatched into the night sky by the bat, the kids prepare for an all-out, real deal war to save their friend, with what they are now afraid is actually an ancient vampire. This movie is a little bit of Goonies, a smidge of Fright Night, a mix of Batman and Manbat, and a whole lotta bats.

BMMI Episode 037: The Reception

Leave a comment

We’re channeling David Lynch for this creepfest of a film. The Reception builds tension and anxiety all the way to the last image of the movie, which also happens to be the scariest. A couple arrives at a destination wedding that tests their relationship and individual resolve. First, as he gives his speech, the lead is forced by the groom to sing a song in front of the entire party. His embarrassment blisters into paranoia as the night continues. All he wants to do is return to his quiet hotel room. But he can’t leave without his soon-to-be fiancee, who seems to either be avoiding him or completely disappeared into the night. And it only gets worse from there…

What is a mummy but a cocoon? And if a mummy is but a cocoon then what is the butterfly? This week Andrew and Kelsey turn the mummy movie genre on it’s bandaged head.  A group of explorers unwrap a mummy and catch a mouthful of curse spores that visit upon a small town all of the plagues of Egypt. This poster shows a blown up image of a single cell of the curse spores. Move over Tom Cruise, there’s another movie about mummies in town.

For our third installment in our October horrorfest of spooky movie pitches, we humbly offer a haunted doll film with a shocking twist: There never was a haunted doll. Hug Me Kiddies is the film The Good Son would have been if Macaulay Culkin’s character had telekinesis. Jealous of his brother’s new doll, a child just learning he can levitate forks graduates to haunting the doll to scare his brother into trading it with him. But terrorizing his family through toys is not enough. When the family brings in paranormal investigators, the psychic telepathically sniffs the kid out in a second—but in doing so, has inadvertently taught the power-hungry boy the first steps to move from levitating dolls to puppeting people.

BMMI Guest Ep 05: Jeepers Creepers 4 (with Special Guest Joe Cocozzello!)

1 Comment

You know what franchise needs to end soon? Jeepers Creepers. We’re making the fourth one, and we’re making it so terrible that there won’t be any more to come after it. But everyone has to see the fourth installment, or the world will be cursed to a new Jeepers Creepers movie every twenty-three years. Our film envisions the entire immortal existence of the Jeep Creep himself, from his demonic birth in Roman times to his all-out battle with his father the devil. The Creeper found a taste for a very specific strain of blood from a single family, so each new generation has only twenty-three years to pack up and disappear to a new town or country before he’ll come creeping again. You might think we want you to sympathize with him because he fights satan. You’d be wrong. The Jeepers Creeper is a monster, and one that the world would be brighter without.

BMMI Episode 034: Hell Hole

This week’s poster is a real life image based on a movie about a haunted apartment building and the roommates that live there. Two plucky 20-somethings move into an apartment with some pretty noisy neighbors, only to discover that their neighbors have been dead for hundreds of years! It’s a real nail-biter as our lead tries to dispose of the misburied remains before his possessed roommate gets the best of him.

BMMI Episode 033: Upsizing

You may think you know what movie this poster is about. A take on the recent Downsizing, but bigger and better. Well, yeah. That’s the gist. Instead of shrinking Matt Damon to reduce the carbon footprint of humanity, why not make him a towering world-ender size instead? Matt Damon stars as a middle-aged schlub that aspires to be sixty feet taller. He gets all the way through an intensive interview process before he realizes he can’t leave his grandfather (Michael Caine) regular-sized. His dream comes true as both of them are granted the irreversible surgery to upsize. But his dream becomes his nightmare as he wakes from the surgery next to his murdered grandfather, and realizes he’s next. This is a conspiracy of giant proportions that goes all the way to the top, that only a giant Matt Damon can hope to rectify.

BMMI Guest Ep 03: Ghost Vape (with Special Guest Dylan!)

This week we had a pitch session with Paulie Band of Full Moon fame and pitched him a franchise to really put those millennial butts in the seats for decades to come. Dan Aykroyd stars as a WW2 scientist whose ghost is trapped in a sick vape rig and seeks revenge on Robert Englund, the man who locked him in there. Does this sound like it makes sense? No? Well shut up, you’re not the target audience.
Dylan of Podquest: No Strangers to Adventure guest stars!
