The B Movie Beatdown ·

2024/07/22

What's this! HATCHET 2! Sure, why not. The BMB boys continue the franchise with another backlog episode.

The B Movie Beatdown ·

2024/07/01

Oh hi Mark! Well, I guess this was inevitable. You can't have a B movie podcast and not talk about THE ROOM. Tommy Wiseau's magnum opus, if you can call it that. In this episode, we try to psychoanalyze Tommy, and get inside his mind. We wanted to figure out just what the hell he was going for with this movie. I guess that was our first mistake.

2024/06/17

We've been hoodwinked! Bamboozled even. PRISON SHIP: STAR SLAMMER promises a spacefaring take on the classic, low budget, women's prison flick... and it really only delivers on the sci-fi. Join us this week as we try to escape the mediocrity of this low budget prison. You'll see a couple of familiar faces from our Surf Nazis episode, and that means Jordan gets to keep crushing on Dawn Wildsmith.

Our first Roger Corman flick is finally here! DEATH RACE 2000 takes us down a road (pun intended) that we haven't gone down before. It's all about speed! It's all about deception! It's a commentary on capitalism and the exploitation of the entertainment industry! Come check it out if you want to see a pre-Rocky Sylvester Stallone play the bad guy!

Week four of TroMAY is here at last! We get all Shakespearean up in this mess with TROMEO AND JULIET.

2024/05/13

TroMay week two! We've graduated and we're continuing this farce with CLASS OF NUKE 'EM HIGH. This movie is just as crazy as Kabukiman, if not crazier. Honestly, it just adds to the mayhem: We're talking mutations, acts of terrorism, a fast tracked pregnancy, and a whole lot more. We also welcome back not one, not two, but three actors from our very first episode. So let's enroll and get started! Find us online: Instagram: @bmoviebeat Facebook: The B Movie Beatdown

The B Movie Beatdown ·

2024/05/06

TroMay is here! Four weeks of Troma movies! For week one we'll be starting with SGT. KABUKIMAN N.Y.P.D. This one's a banger. I mean, we're talking about minor cannibalism, live exotic animals, drug smuggling priests, and best of all, a man gains the powers of a kabuki superhero. We got all the fixin's for an R rated film wrapped up nicely in a PG-13 sushi roll. So come check it out!

Neon Maniacs! Isn't that a Sabbath song? Nah, you're thinking Neon Knights. NEON MANIACS is this week's pick. Join us as we deep dive into why this movie struggled to get off the ground, and why it's such a mess. I mean, are they cenobites? Nope. Are they a demonic version of The Village People? Closer, but still nah. I guess....they're just the maniacs! Find us online: Instagram: @bmoviebeat Facebook: The B Movie Beatdown Email: thebeatmoviebeatdown@gmail.com

Glaze it, don't blaze it! Nah I'm just kidding, you know why we’re here. Happy 420! This episode comes out two days late, but we decided to do EVIL BONG anyways! In this hazy flick, four roommates buy a mysterious possessed bong and succumb to its power one by one. Grab a seat and share a toke as we puff puff pass our thoughts back and forth on this Tommy Chong-lead flick.
