Basket Case 2 (1990)

Author: Geekscape August 18, 2017 Duration: 37:53
It's Matt's pick this week, and he has a long history of making the guys watch and discuss freak movies, so he went with one of his favorites, the 1990 Frank Henenlotter classic (?) Basket Case 2! We're all attached at the hip with our rollercoaster of emotions for this film, and do our best to sew ourselves together long enough to break down the intricate social commentary of this piece of cinema, as well as shower compliments on its SFX team for all the delightfully weird busts they made here. If you've ever wondered how freaks have a picnic, well you're in luck, because it's shown for about 5 minutes in this week's episode of Horror Movie Night. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever have that feeling of standing in a video store aisle, staring at a box with wild artwork, hoping you’re about to discover a hidden gem? That’s the spirit Horror Movie Night channels every episode. Hosts Matt, Scott, and Kyle from Geekscape are your guides through the highs and lows of the genre, from forgotten oddities to beloved classics. They fully commit to the gamble, so you get the genuine excitement of a surprising find like *American Gothic* right alongside the shared misery of a baffling flop like *Terror Toons*. The dynamic is less a formal review and more like eavesdropping on friends passionately debating a movie they just rented, capturing that specific blend of nostalgia and snark. Listening to this podcast feels like a weekly hangout where the conversation is fueled by cinematic scares and genuine laughs. You’ll hear their immediate reactions, the tangents, and the camaraderie that turns even the most disappointing film into an entertaining experience. It’s a comedy and film discussion wrapped in the worn-out VHS tape of memory, perfect for anyone who misses the ritual of picking a movie based solely on its cover.
