Show #4!

For your perusal, here is Show #4 of our podcast, in which we discuss current events, (namely the bizarre Manti T’eo hoax, that asshole Lance Armstrong, and doping in sports). And we throw comic books in for good measure.

MLCTF Show 4

Our B-Movie for this week is Surf Nazi’s Must Die.  Watch at your own peril!!

If you’re not brave enough, you can enjoy Pancho’s Show Notes instead:

1. Believe it or not, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Troma film before! Least not that I know of.
2. This opening sequence just screams the ’80’s.
3. There’s a character called “Smeg’s Mom”. Oh wonderful.
4. I’m expecting to either be told to “leave the Bronx!” or see the Paper Chase Guy come riding up on his annoying motorcycle.
5. Suspenders with no shirt is a good look for almost anyone.
6. Someone spray painted “Suck”on the wall. They must have seen the rushes.
7. Is it bad that I’m actually hoping Jaws appears & eats these people?
8. Adolph? Mengele? You’ve got to be kidding me!
9. I’ve seen better acting in Ed Wood movies.
10. The Exorcist called and would like their theme music back.
11. Not since Dr. Frankenfurter has a more femmy character descended from above!
12. The Nazi’s have a battleship? Quick! Alert the RAF!!
13. I’m starting to like the old black lady!
14. It would be nice if something would happen at some point.
15. We have boobies!!! Surprised it took this long.
16. The level of homoerotic tension amongst these guys is palpable.
17. So, Leroy is dead, but he’s also out swimming at the same time? How does that work?
18. I’m so glad they decided to film the confrontation between Adolph & Mengele from the other side of an aircraft hanger.
19. Adolph was an economics major. WTF?
20. The A-team also called & wants their van back.
21. Eleanor vs. Smeg!!! Go Eleanor!!
22. And now more pointless shots of people surfing. Roger Corman himself couldn’t have padded out this film any better.
23. The term “skank” isn’t quite strong enough to describe Eva.
24. Something apparently happened to piss off Adolph, but I’ll be damned if I can figure out what.
25. Now some fishermen are pulling a some guy off the underside of a pier. Does anyone know what’s going on here?
26. Favorite line so far: “There’s no room for Jesus on the beach!”
27. Did the director of this film suffer some sort of brain injury that rendered him unable to tell a coherent story?
28. Second favorite line: “I want something that’ll take a honkey’s head off at 20 paces!”
29. Not sure which character annoys me more, Smeg or Smeg’s Mom.
30. That was Chariots of Fire on the phone. They’d like their theme back as well.
31. I think I could have assembled footage from random films and made a more coherent story than this.
32. I sense there’s about to be a rumble, but if the earlier part of this movie was any indication it’ll probably take place off screen.
33. Oh, joy! More pointless surfing scenes!
34. You’d think if a guy was going to become a Nazi & call himself Adolph, he’d at least shave his mustache properly.
35. Mengele needs to take his anti-spaz medication.
36. Well, at least some stuff is happening. I could care less about it, but…
37. Has this suddenly become a nature film?
38. No, I suppose not. ):
39. Grenades!!! Hear comes Eleanor!
40. I can’t tell if Adolph is upset about Mengele getting killed or he’s trying to pass a kidney stone.
41. Look out LA! Eleanor has a Harley & she’s pissed!
42. OK. I’m lost. Adolph & Eva followed Eleanor on the bike in their van. But now, they’ve got the bike & Eleanor is following them in the van. Huh?
43. And more surfing!
44. It’s nice to see the city keeps that slag heap right by the beach.
45. I can think of better ways to get away than surfing.
46. Down goes Eva! Skanky even in death.
47. I think you have a better chance of being hit by a meteorite then throwing a knife at a moving boat & killing the driver.
