Pull up to the screen and lock your doors, 'cause this week’s Double Feature is consuming everything in its path. We're comparing a true drive-in classic with one of the greatest horror remakes of all time: The Blob (1958) and The Blob (1988).

Tune in as we break down how a slow-moving 1950s atomic age monster evolved into a fast, vicious 1980s practical-effects nightmare. How do the scares hold up? Which protagonists had the best survival instincts? And how did they pull off those insane effects in '88?

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD! We dive deep into the kills, the twists, and the government conspiracies. If you haven't seen these films, we highly recommend treating this like a true drive-in double feature. Watch both The Blob ('58) and The Blob ('88) before you hit play!

Grab your shades and swim trunks as we start off with a sun-drenched, cocktail-fueled double feature that celebrates the veritable peak of 80s and 90s comedy: Weekend at Bernie’s and Weekend at Bernie’s II.

How is a movie about two guys pretending that their dead boss is alive so good? And more importantly, how do you make a sequel to a movie with that premise? Join us as we dive deep into the well of chaos that is Bernie Lomax and discuss why this bizarre film still makes us laugh (and cringe) today.

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!
For our analysis to make sense, we discuss all details of the films. If you haven’t seen these movies (and why haven’t you?), we highly recommend watching both Weekend at Bernie’s and Weekend at Bernie’s II before you hit play on this episode.
