Episode 47 - Pumpkinhead (1988) Review
20/10/2020 Duración: 01h16minGreetings once again Hitchhikers!!! We’re halfway through our NHP Halloween Favorites theme for October & we’re bringing a guest with us this time - one of the hosts from Raised in Horror: The Psycho Siblings Podcast - Justin Ramsey!!! For this review, we dive into Stan Winston’s directorial debut, Pumpkinhead (1988) for EP. 47. We ask if the title is a bit misleading, leaving us with an earthbound Xenomorph-type being instead of a jack o’ lantern-headed entity. The Dick Warlock Factor is in full effect and we talk about shirtless Lance Henriksen way too much. *NOTE: At the end of the previous episode, we said Fright Night (1985) was the next review. Plans changed, so we bumped up Pumpkinhead and Fright Night will be released on Halloween.*

Episode 41 - Night of the Creeps (1986) Review
30/06/2020 Duración: 01h21minWhat better way to close out June than wait until the last day to release the final entry for It Came from Late Night TV Month...Night of the Creeps (1986) for EP. 41?!

Episode 40 - Sssssss (1973) Review
16/06/2020 Duración: 01h14minGreetings Hitchhikers & welcome to our second entry for It Came from Late Night TV Month for EP. 40 where we are bringing to you Sssssss (1973)!!! First things first, we want to apologize for the poor audio quality we are regrettably exposing you to for this episode. Skype wasn’t our friend the night we recorded this show and our schedules didn’t allow us time to re-record segments that truly needed redone. This is the best chicken salad we could come up with. Anyways, we ask, “What exactly did Strother Martin inject Dirk Benedict with in one particular scene and was Harry, the drunken snake once human or a real snake?” Also, we discuss our favorite special FX/transformation movies from yesteryear. Our personal feelings toward the snake kingdom are revealed and we spitball ideas for the sequel that never happened.

Episode 39 - Silent Rage (1982) Review
02/06/2020 Duración: 01h14minGreetings Hitchhikers and welcome to “It Came From Late Night TV” Month here on the Highway for June!!! We are going to be reviewing three of our personal favorite, oddball, quirky movies you’d catch staying up past your bedtime that have become cult classics among horror/sci-fi fans. Roundhouse kicking this month off is the Chuck Norris vs. Great Value Michael Myers flick, Silent Rage (1982) for EP. 39!!! We compare fashion similarities between our bad guy John Kirby and the Lord, while we also feel brief “dad quarantine pity” for Kirby...until he picks up an axe. Chuck Norris pulls a Dr. Loomis and the single greatest line in NHP’s show note history begins a deep cut discussing one of the weirdest montages in 80s cinema. We also ask, “Is this a slasher horror movie?” The King and Mayor agree, while the Lord wants to be stubborn and oppose.

Episode 38 - Silverado (1985) Review
19/05/2020 Duración: 01h19minHOWDY HITCHHIKERS!!! We have a rootin’, tootin’ review for you that will satisfy your inner cowboy as we finish out Wild West Month for May; we bring you the star-studded Silverado (1985)!!! Right off the bat we go barkin’ at a knot when we realize every VHS the Lord finds at Goodwill costs him a quarter and gives us the history and meaning of the muff pistol. We take time to recognize the massive amount of horror movie connections there are with this and we discuss luck and what lucky charms we all have. Did I mention there’s virtual social distancing whiskey shots with the King? There are...but only of the good stuff. Oh, and he also explains that Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and The Fast & the Furious are essentially the same movie. Somehow. All this and more in EP. 38 - Silverado (1985), available NOW on all your favorite podcasting apps!!!
