Werewolf Ambulance: A Horror Movie Comedy Podcast

This week we're talking about some of the favorite actors of a certain co-host of Werewolf Ambulance: Jeff Goldblum and Donald Sutherland in the 1979 sci-fi/horror film remake "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." Special topics for your consideration include a money-making enterprise to capitalize on our punk rock fame, the new mascot of Werewolf Ambulance (spoilers: it's Art Hindle), Leonard Nimoy's accessory choices, the wisdom to never trust an old guy with weed and Santa: the ultimate snitch.

If you can't get enough Goldblum (and who could?), check out Episode 103- "The Fly" and Episode 146- "The Sentinel." Is Donald Sutherland more your jam? Then you may like Episode 47- "Don't Look Now."

In this week's episode, we are going deep into the sequels of a different franchise with the third (fourth?) installment of the "Evil Dead" films, "Army of Darkness." Special topics for your consideration include: how bad fans can make a film franchise go bad, how bad movie etiquette can make a friendship go bad, some very topical "Game of Thrones" talk (no spoilers obvs, we don't watch that show), medicinal film enhancement and hunky hunky Bruce Campbell.

Like horror comedies? We've covered a bunch, but you could start some of our favorites: Episode 126- "Cabin in the Woods," Episode 140- "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" or Episode 160- "Shaun of the Dead."

This week we're discussing the final feature film directed by one of the masters, Wes Craven. Unfortunately, it has a numerical digit in the middle of a word so you that's a pretty good indication of how the film is going to go. We give you: "Scre4m" (or SCR-FOUR-M or Scream 4, it's fine). Special topics for your consideration include: summertime cookies, romance lost and found in the "Scream" franchise, more meta than the meta, that cool hip band the teens like (U2), blazers, Wu-Tang, Judy Greer and "Stab 7." 

It's as good a time as any to check out our other Wes Craven films- Episode 4- "A Nightmare on Elm Street," Episode 44- "Scream" and Episode 138- "The People Under the Stairs."

In this week's episode, we get ourselves to the movie theater and see the new Jordan Peele film "Us." Have you guys heard about this movie? We heard a couple people talking about it. Anyway, we're going to spoil it, so see it before you listen if you plan to see it at all. Special topics for your consideration include: a lot of theories about this film (including one very close to our podcast!), the state of modern day horror, chasing the scare dragon, memes, stans and some *light* blasphemy. 

Did you miss our episode on "Get Out"? If so, it's Episode 124.

After last week's harrowing journey into "Hereditary," we decided to lighten it up a little this week with the 1988 horror-adjacent comedy "Beetlejuice." One note: we had mentioned making this a kid-friendly (no swearing episode) but...we did not. Sorry, it's explicit. Special topics for your consideration include: Pittsburgh (and national) treasure Michael Keaton, utilizing this film's therapeutic qualities, questionable Halloween costume ideas, "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," consequences for being a grosso and a shocking discovery about the screenwriter of this movie. 

Yinz into Tim Burton? Somehow we've only managed to do one other film of his: Episode 106- "Sleepy Hollow." Into Geena Davis?? Check out Episode 103- "The Fly."

Oh EMTs. Are you ready for this week's episode? We watched the 2018 gutwrencher "Hereditary" and lived to tell the tale.

Do you love Toni Collette? Check out some of her horror catalog: Episode 61- "Krampus," Episode 157- "The Sixth Sense" and Episode 220- "Velvet Buzzsaw."

This week we're rejoined by a previous guest: our pal/husband and yours (but not really your husband, that would be weird), Rob! He's here to discuss his pick which has been given the dubious distinction of being the second worst Civil War movie of all time: 1982's "Curse of the Cannibal Confederates." It's free on Amazon if you're a Prime subscriber. 

Special topics for your consideration include: the season in which this film is set (WHICH IS IT? No one knows), Baltimore accents, having a stealing friend that you still hang out with, insensitive names and actual facts about the actual American Civil War. 

Did you miss Rob's first appearance? You can catch him in Episode 15- "The Blair Witch Project."

We're not even going to ask you if you'd seen this one before because why would you have? But if you've seen it now, how mad at us are you?

You can also email us for our segment "MAILBAG!" at werewolfambulance@gmail.com and if you're feeling super generous, leave us an iTunes rating and review.
