Messed Up Movies

One actor. One director. One existing franchise. One wild card. Who can build the Messed Up Movie you'd most want to see?
We're practicing our best Hollywood pitch for our dream movies we'd love to make real. In this new kind of draft, Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia draft battle over who's movie would make the best blockbuster.
On the imaginary release calendar:
• Yorgos Lanthimos tackles Batman: The Killing Joke.
• Guillermo del Toro reinvents A Nightmare on Elm Street with Robert Pattinson as Freddy.
• Nicolas Cage and Willem Dafoe enter Lars von Trier's Hellraiser.
• Rob Zombie takes Mia Goth into From Dusk Till Dawn, fueled by an all-Aerosmith soundtrack.
All four movies open on the same Friday. Which one gets your ticket? Vote in the comments, then give us YOUR four picks: actor, director, IP and wild card.

Today Griffey and Dandino fight to save what little we have from a Mutant Fish Creature in The Host. They dive deep into the film's incredible Monster introduction set piece, how Bong Joon Ho uses everyday life to sink his fangs into the audience more than the monster, and the film's suprisingly funny tonality. This movie was an early harbinger of the amazing work we all had in store from a now master of Modern Messed Up cinema. 
Synopsis: A monster emerges from Seoul's Han River and begins attacking people. One victim's loving family does what it can to rescue her from its clutches.
Starring: Song Kang-Ho, Byun Hee-Bong, Park Hae-il
Directed by Bong Joon Ho

What happens when one ridiculous movie idea grows into a genuine cult phenomenon?
On this episode of the Messed Up Movies Podcast, we sit down with Costa Dillon, the creator and co-writer of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!, to discuss the story behind one of the most recognizable cult movies ever made.
Costa takes us inside the creation of Killer Tomatoes, the independent filmmaking spirit behind the original movie, and the unexpected life the franchise developed after its release. We talk about its famously absurd premise, its lasting reputation, and what it is like to remain connected to killer tomatoes nearly five decades later.
Whether you grew up watching the original film, discovered the sequels or animated series, or have always wondered how a movie called Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! actually got made, this conversation is packed with cult-movie history.

How super should super soldiers behave?
That's the burning question for Griffey and Sam as Heath does his best to fend off this onslaught of critiques against his favorite movie of the year.
This week on the Messed Up Movies Podcast, we're digging into Adam Wingard's ONSLAUGHT, a slick, violent collision of military conspiracy, Nazi super soldiers, trailer-park survival horror and pure Rule of Cool filmmaking.
Adam Wingard is back in the bloody, stripped-down genre territory that gave us YOU'RE NEXT and THE GUEST. So is ONSLAUGHT the return horror fans have been waiting for?
FULL SPOILERS AHEAD.
Is ONSLAUGHT one of Adam Wingard's best movies, or does all that style ultimately overpower the substance?
Let us know where you landed in the comments.

Stephen King has given us some of the greatest horror stories ever written and some of them even became great movies!
This week on our Messed Up Movies Draft, Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia go head-to-head to build the ultimate four-movie Stephen King lineup.
There is, however, one problem:
THE SHINING and CARRIE are BANNED. We've picked them too many times, so we are locking them in Room 237 until further notice.
That leaves everything else on the board, from The Mist, Misery, The Shawshank Redemption, Pet Sematary and Creepshow to IT, Stand By Me, The Green Mile, Doctor Sleep, The Running Man, Children of the Corn and plenty of increasingly questionable decisions *cough SOPHIA cough*
Along the way, we get into what actually makes a great Stephen King adaptation, why his stories have endured for generations, the movies that completely nailed his particular brand of American horror, and the adaptations that maybe should have stayed buried.
YOU decide who drafted the best Stephen King movie lineup. Drop your winner in the comments or vote in our Instagram poll.
