Ex-MPM Host Mark "The Shark" Hinton threw us a bit of a bone, by having us review a 1980's horror cult classic, Cellar Dweller and Ben from the Culturally Ill Podcast originally suggested we review the first three Twilight movies, but we boycotted that and settled for doing the first one. In this episode, we talk about the Holiday powers we wish we had, I get insanely pissed at Twilight for using the term "vampires", and we all wish Jefferey Combs was in a little more of everything.
