Messed Up Movies

What makes a great remake? Faithfully honoring the original, completely reinventing it, or improving it so dramatically that the first movie becomes obsolete?
This week, Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia draft the most messed-up movie remakes of all time. With The Thing and The Ring banned from competition, the board is wide open for body horror, slashers, alien invasions, vampires, psychosexual thrillers and one deeply disturbing Lindsay Lohan family comedy.
Expect heated arguments over The Fly, Evil Dead, The Hills Have Eyes, Rob Zombie's Halloween, Nosferatu, Dredd, Friday the 13th and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, plus a compelling case for why The Parent Trap secretly qualifies as horror.
Along the way, we thirst over Judge Judy, confuse Harry Styles with the Jonas Brothers, learn about Sam's fixation on powerful calves and discover Martin Scorsese's forgotten masterpiece, Infernal Desires.
Whose final lineup wins the draft? Vote in the comments!

Today Griffey and Dandino clock in and punch out rats in Graveyard Shift. They discuss this interesting era in Stephen King on screen adaptaions, the pure insanity of the cast that chews scenery more than rats do wool, and what in the name of nightmare evolution is the Rat King at the end of the film. This is an often over-looked Messed Up Movie. 
Synopsis: The owner of an ancient mill hires a drifter to rid the basement of rats.
Starring: David Andrews, Kelly Wolf, Stephen Macht, Andrew Divoff, Brad Dourif
Directed by Ralph S. Singleton

Shudder's new original horror film SACCHARINE left us feeling overfed, bloated and ultimately malnurished.
After medical student Hannah begins making her own diet pills from a cadaver, she rapidly loses weight while developing an uncontrollable hunger. Unfortunately, she also attracts the attention of the very large, very angry ghost whose remains she has been consuming.
On this New Movie Monday, Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia dig into Natalie Erika James' ambitious body-horror movie. We discuss its grotesque eating sequences, striking direction, body-image themes, Midori Francis' lead performance and an absolutely baffling final scene.
Is SACCHARINE a bold personal horror film about addiction, appetite and self-loathing? Is it a beautifully made movie with far too many ideas? And what the hell was that ending supposed to mean?
Watch SACCHARINE now on Shudder, then join us for the full spoiler discussion.

The 1990s gave us meta-slashers, satanic spaceships, exploding hookers, body-swapping action heroes, teenage witches and enough Nicolas Cage insanity to sustain an entire decade.
Griffey, Heath, Sam, Sophia and Nick battle to assemble the ultimate team of messed up movies from the '90s. Scream, Event Horizon, Frankenhooker, The Silence of the Lambs, Fight Club, The Craft, Candyman, Face/Off, 12 Monkeys and Hocus Pocus are only the beginning.
Was the '90s actually an underrated horror decade? Is Event Horizon secretly a Warhammer movie? Does Hocus Pocus belong beside Fight Club? And which combatant walks away with the strongest four-film lineup?
Watch the episode, examine the evidence and tell us who won the draft in the comments.

The original ending of Jeepers Creepers was supposed to continue far beyond the police station.
At Days of the Dead Indianapolis, original Creeper actor Jonathan Breck and creature effects artist Brian Penikas reveal the massive 15-minute climax the production could not afford to film, including a battle atop the Creeper's truck and an oncoming train.
They also share behind-the-scenes stories about:
• The disturbing "puppet coach" sequence cut from Jeepers Creepers 2
• Why Jonathan Breck shaved his head before his audition
• How the Creeper's face, body and weapons were designed
• The real human tooth hidden inside one of his throwing stars
• Why Justin Long was the first and last actor filmed in Creeper makeup
• How Jaws and Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat influenced the first two films
Recorded live at Days of the Dead Indianapolis and hosted by Griffey of Misfit Parade and the Messed Up Movies Podcast.
