Troll 2 (1990) feat. Frank Olson
Also called the "best of the worst"; but also called unforgettable and legendary. Can these opposites exist at once? Welcome to Nilbog: a small town of ravenous goblins, mad witches, and ghost grandpas. Just don't ask for coffee, eggs, or bologna sandwiches. Thanks for listening, friends!

Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957)
Dubbed the worst movie ever made - does it live up to the hype? What are plans 1-8?? Are we indeed living in the future??? More questions than answers in Ed Wood's film about aliens who raise the dead to warn humanity about the dangers of nuclear war. Sure, why not? Thanks for listening, friends!

Of Unknown Origin (1983)
Is the psychological-comedy a thing? The guy from ROBOCOP battles a vicious rat in his NYC apartment, and has an existential crisis along the way. Often overlooked when discussing '80s horror flicks, is this one due for reappraisal? Thanks for listening, friends!

Orca: The Killer Whale (1977)
Whale whale whale... an orca flips out and seeks revenge on humanity. Not to spout our own blowhole, but is this more than a shallow JAWS rip-off and somehow a fintastic Shakespearean tragedy? The boats sink and the legs chomped in this fish tale from producer Dino De Laurentiis (KING KONG 1976), with music by Ennio Morricone, and starring Richard Harris. Thanks for listening, friends!

Editor's Note: Following World War I, Japan did gain control over Germany's south Pacific territories; however, Japan was not granted its requested "racial equality clause" in the Treaty of Versailles (1919). This clause, while supported by France and Italy, was vetoed by Great Britain and the United States (Axelrod, 2019).
