Reel Trash Cinema is the podcast that celebrates the best of the worst in movies. Bad movies, B-horror, cheesy sci-fi, and cult classics the critics hated but we can’t stop watching. Join hosts Marc, Bill, and Rena as they dive headfirst into the forgotten flops and low-budget disasters. Each episode, we deliver uncensored reviews, hot takes, and commentary on the trash cinema you secretly (or not-so-secretly) love. From VHS-era oddities to so-bad-they’re-good masterpieces. If you love cult films, and movie misfires, then this is the podcast for you.
Halloween (1978) – John Carpenter, Michael Myers and the Ultimate Slasher Classic
Happy Halloween from Reel Trash Cinema! This time, we're celebrating the spookiest time of year with John Carpenter's Halloween (1978), the legendary horror film that helped define the slasher genre and introduced the world to Michael Myers, the Shape who just won't stay dead. We revisit the night Laurie Strode faced pure evil in Haddonfield, Illinois, and discuss Jamie Lee Curtis, Donald Pleasence, Carpenter's iconic direction, that unforgettable musical score, and why this low-budget horror classic still haunts audiences decades later. Is Halloween still the ultimate slasher movie, or has its reputation grown bigger than the boogeyman himself? Join us for a special Halloween episode packed with classic horror, movie talk, and the usual Reel Trash Cinema commentary. Just remember: you can't kill the boogeyman!

Phantasm (1979) - The Tall Man, Killer Spheres and Cult Horror Weirdness
What happens when a funeral home hides something far more terrifying than the dead? This week on Reel Trash Cinema, we're diving into Phantasm (1979), Don Coscarelli's surreal supernatural horror film starring A. Michael Baldwin, Reggie Bannister, and Angus Scrimm as the legendary Tall Man. With its mysterious mortuary, deadly flying spheres, and nightmarish atmosphere, Phantasm became one of the most distinctive cult horror movies of its era.
Marc, Bill, and Rena dig into the film's bizarre mythology, unsettling imagery, practical effects, memorable performances, and the strange dreamlike story that has kept horror fans talking for decades. Does Phantasm still deliver the chills, or does its surreal approach leave more questions than answers?

Headsome (2013) — Mad Science, Cyborgs and One Very Unhappy Head
What happens when a scientist decides that death is merely a technical problem? This week on Reel Trash Cinema, we dive into Headsome (2013), the bizarre indie sci-fi thriller where a catastrophic accident leaves a scientist alive as a disembodied head, and his twin brother decides to play God. With mad science, questionable medical ethics, robotics, practical effects, and plenty of weirdness, Headsome is exactly the kind of obscure sci-fi oddity we love to dig up. Join Marc, Bill, and Rena as we discuss this offbeat cult movie, its strange premise, wild effects, and everything that makes Headsome such an unusual piece of indie science fiction and horror.
