Guten tag, Maniacs! Mike and Chris are here to discuss vampire fashion in the early 1940s as presented in the docudrama, BloodRayne 3. Other topics of conversation include how to clean yourself after making a mess while feeding, the varied accents of Nazi Germany and subjugated territories, and how much Gratuitous Clint Howard is too gratuitous. Spoiler alert: No amount of Clint Howard is too gratuitous.

Happy new year, maniacs! In this quick take, J and Chris discuss the most appropriate movie they could think of, New Year's Evil, and their own new year's resolutions. Kick back, close your eyes and try not to think about how you puked all over from partying last week. Go 2019!

Hello Maniacs! For the first time ever, we recorded an episode with all of us in the same room! We recently attended Windycon 45 and had a blast. Crazy Chris sang a karaoke version of "Easy." Mike enjoyed the Westin bath robes. J finally got to play Mario Kart 8. We walked the con floor. We hit the parties. Oh yeah… and we went to the dealer room and picked a movie for an impromptu review. Mike found 95ers: Time Runners. It's a time travel movie so in this episode we decided to try some mind-bending time travel of our own!
