 Those intrepid weirdos we call the Dom Deluise Club have done it yet again. And by 'it', we mean they've picked three very different cult flicks for us to review, as is their monthly ritual. Up first! It's Delinquent Girl Boss: Tokyo Drifters, one of them sleazy pinky violence flicks from Japan (via patreon pal Steve M), coming early in the genre's history with its 1970 release date. In fact, it just might be the earliest movie we've seen in which bare boobs are deployed as a mid-fight distraction tactic. Next up! Oh no, a 3-hour British flick? O! Lucky Man (from 1973 & picked by Justin D) seems like a surefire way to piss off at least two of your three charming JFD hosts. But can the presence of Malcolm McDowell alleviate the misery? The only way to know is to listen (or check the replay on the evening news). Finally! Of course, it's 1983's The Man with Two Brains, our long-awaited dissection of this important entry in the series of films Carl Reiner made with Steve Martin. And since it's got both boobs and brains, how the hell did it take all three of us this long to finally see it? (picked by Ricky O) All this plus strugglin' with Skype, Parker's Wynorski binge, the brittle bones of a 70-year old Gene Kelly, surprising physical media news, the Dinklage Report co-starring Sean, no junkmails, Kevin picks his "trash-art beserker" of the week, boobies floppin' everywhere, nerd news and even more!

Up first, we dive deep into the surreal world of Japanese folklore with the colorful Himiko from 1974 about a three tribes at odds with one another, complicated by the arrival of a mysterious traveler.Then, we get to see the once-thought-lost vanity project The Astrologer from 1975 about a fortune teller who uses his powers to travel the globe and build an empire. And finally, one of the best titles and posters in 80's cult cinema, Slave Girls from Beyond Infinity from 1987 stars Elizabeth Kaitan and Cindy Beal as a pair of scantily-clad space babes being hunted by a weirdo and his robots .All this plus Sean's TV dies, Parker sees Red Rocket, Robert from Sweden drops some knowledge, the Foo Fighters horror movie, Ti West tries to mix porno and horror, Disney ruins Kevin's werewolf dreams and so much more.LISTEN NOW:MP3 Direct DonloydAlso, if you like the show, please take a minute and subscribe and/or comment on us on iTunes, Stitcher, Blubrry or Podfeed.net.

 Episode Six Hundred? That’s a long time podcasting. But episode Sex Hundred? That’s a schlongtime podcasting. Join us this week as we celebrate this important milestone the only way we know how: by reviewing three pornographic films! On top of that, we'll also be running down our Top 5 favorite movie-watches of the past year. Happy Nude Year, junkies! Up first! It's 1977's proto-slasher slash bonerjam A Woman's Torment, an erotic favorite for those who are attracted to women crying in showers. Directed by hardcore feminist Roberta Findlay, this skinflick isn't satisfied with removing mere clothing from human bodies. But is that really what we wanted at this time of year? Next up! Those wacky college boys sure do know how to party, huh? It's your dad's favorite UCLA-set coming-of-age flick, Natural Lamporn's Frat House (from 1979). Sure, the plot construction is weak, but these pranksters are horny as heck. Finally! Of course, it's 1986's The Devil in Miss Jones 4: The Final Outrage, our long-awaited dissection of this important entry in this landmark series of fuckfilms. As with the last entry, this one's directed by Gregory Dark and features more punkrock hairstyles than you can shake your stick at. But will we possibly remember the important plot details for a movie which we last reviewed a full eight years prior? All this plus our baby boy Byron's all grown up, droppin' triple Oh's, Kevin's ability to memorize spells is in question, Christmas Hauls chats, addin' movies to the Junk Yard, exactly one JFD host remains opposed to Letterboxd, Parker Bowman reveals his true feelings on David Lynch, Quaid-blamin', a star-studded Junkmail section, the lingering echoes of off-mic sneezes, chocolate speedways, corpulent Corpus Christi cabbies copulating, the scent of wildflowers, nerd news and even more!

It's time for JFD Rewind Episode Number Eight! As we perfunctorily/redundantly explain at the head of each of these annual compilation clip shows, your charming Junk Food Dinner hosts are unwilling and/or unable to perform their regular duties in this very hectic holiday time period. However, as has been explained prior, this inability to produce a new weekly show does not preclude us from our obligation to deliver some form of audio content to the feed. So it's come to this again: yet another?!?!! Junk Food Dinner clip show. As we're fond of both the elements of surprise and laziness, we'll forgo the usual descriptors here as to what the actual contents of this cut-and-pasted effort truly are. If you're the sort of curious cat who'd actually donloyd this thing, you'll listen along with us and discover what made the cut for this year's compilation. And if not, you could still pretend you did and probably fool us. That said, we jammed some true JFD treasures into this year's edition, just because we love y'all so much. If y'all love what ya hear, sign up for our Patreon thing to throw us a few bones (in exchange for some boners). All this plus witty banter between friends, ghosts of podcast friendship, beast mode Kevin, zero Nerd Newsies, no week's DVD & blu-ray releases, partial confidentiality, continued lack of overt police involvement, synchronized robot voices, overlong musical interludes, rogue boners, wanton sneezes, spooky belches, sinister gleeks and too much more!

 We're getting into the holiday spirit this week by slipping into some comfortable shorts, but not just any shorts, Christmas-themed shorts! That's right, this week we have three short-length watches to help get you ready for Christmas! Up first we have an animated TV special from 1985 about a group of illuminated insects and one clumsy moose who have to save Santa Claus from an evil witch and her talking scarf in The GLO Friends Save Christmas. Next, America's most famous film critics run down all the videos and gizmos you should have gotten from Christmas (but probably didn't) in 1987 in the Siskel & Ebert Holiday Gift Guide. And finally, the star of Kids In The Hall and News Radio, Dave Foley, tries to make the ultimate holiday special but realizes it's harder than it looks in The True Meaning Of Christmas Specials from 2002. All this plus what kind of holiday pornos has Kevin been watching, Christmas cookie and eggnog chat, a tribute to the queen of the goths, the Thora Birch update, step-dad Vinny revelations and so much more.LISTEN NOW:MP3 Direct DonloydAlso, if you like the show, please take a minute and subscribe and/or comment on us on iTunes, Stitcher, Blubrry or Podfeed.net.

 Backstage beauties, mormon punkers, and retro redneck rampages - this week's episode has truly got it all! Up first! It's 1934's grandma musical Murder at the Vanities, perhaps one of the first films to combine the allure of sexy ladies and scary violences. And how sexy they are! But will that be enough to appeal to Kevin and Parker's inner grandpa? Next up! Those wacky mormons sure do know how to party, huh? It's your college roommate's favorite punkrock coming-of-age flick, SLC Punk (from 1998). Sure, the beer is weak, but these punksters are wicked as heck. Finally! Of course, it's 2004's Skinned Deep, the Texas Chainsaw clone you never knew you wanted (and maybe you don't). It combines retro-retroism, extreme gore, and fisheye-lensed redneck interiors laced with Super Nintendos. Sound appealing? All this plus our baby boy Bowman's all grown up, Crazy 4 Swayze chats, the Pincinnati Newsflash, the straight-edgers go batso, Sean's mormon roommates, what can we learn from Earth Crisis?, the rules and regulations of amusement machines, no funny raggamuffins, nerd news and even more!

 Hope everyone's having a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend, Junkies. The boys ate too much so now they have to take off their pants and slip into so comfortable shorts. Short films, that is! Up first, legendary underground short filmmaker Kenneth Anger brings us his occult, psychedelic opus Lucifer Rising from 1972/1980. Featuring music by infamous Manson Family murderer Bobby Beausoleil and starring Marianne Faithfull, Chris Jagger and Jimmy Page this Satanic-themed trip has become quite notorious for its visual style and troubled history. Then, in 1979 ABC aired an hour long prime-time special entitled Playboy's Roller Disco & Pajama Party. Hosted by Family Feud's Richard Dawson, the special featured live performances by The Chuck Mangione Quartet and The Village People as well as cameos by Jim Brown, James Caan, Ruth Buzzi and of course, a whole lot of Playboy Playmates. Finally, we take a look at a 2008 short film by filmmaker Denis Villeneuve (Dune, Blade Runner 2049) about a group of rich people eating a ridiculous meal and falling through several floors of a high rise building in Next Floor.All this plus Thanksgiving meal ideas, Sean's financial issues, Goof Lumps, new footage of The Stuff found, multiple cuts of Phantom of the Mall, the guy from American Werewolf sings "Makin' It" and so much more.LISTEN NOW:MP3 Direct DonloydAlso, if you like the show, please take a minute and subscribe and/or comment on us on iTunes, Stitcher, Blubrry or Podfeed.net.

 We're handing over the reigns again to our beloved Patreon Pals this week, and they've selected a trio of wild cult flicks for us to watch and discuss! Up first! It's 1980's Altered States, Ken Russell's psychedelic freak-out flick starring a young John Hurt and multi-eyed goat. Listen for our third eyes opening about halfway through the review. (appreciate the pick, Zach!) Next up! Those wacky Canadians sure do know how to make a mockumentary, eh? It's Quentin Tarantino's favorite punk canucksploitation travelogue, Hard Core Logo (from 1996). Sure, the title is god-awful, but the movie must be better, right? (thanks for picking it, Randy!) Finally! Of course, it's 1997's Breakdown, the wife-snatching Kurt Russell nailbiter with the killer RV/truck crash sequence. How in the world we never review this until now is beyond us. (we see you, Brendon!) All this plus a shirt-rippin' good time at the Warhammer table, printed puritanical propaganda, a nose full of meat, shout outs to Hollywood Chinese & John Tarzan, a burp or two, Kevin Mossman's never-ending Horror-themed Restaurants tour, no funny raggamuffins, nerd news and even more!
