Spine #87 - God Told Me To

Mass shooters! Religious cabals! Alien invaders! Despite their promises otherwise, the boys dive down another rabbit hole, exploring the wild, cerebral, and insanely irreverent filmography of Larry Cohen. Was the greatest voice of the '70s exploitation era? Find out here!

Spine #86 - Keoma

"A MAN WHO IS FREE NEVER DIES!" Marten begins his journey through the annals of Italian exploitation cinema, with Jacob giggling along for the ride. His first stop: the violent, entertaining, marinara genre collaborations between Enzo Castellari and Franco Nero, including the acid trip spaghetti Western, KEOMA. Pick up a six-shooter and throw a tab on your tongue, we're going to Genoa!

Bonus Episode - Primate

Happy New Year! We took a quick break to settle in, but now we're back with all the killer monkey movies in celebration of Johannes Roberts' badass creature feature PRIMATE. A movie that answers the question: what if Cujo was a rabid chimp? Find out in our latest Bonus Episode.

Bonus Episode - Our Favorite Films of 2025

Another one in the books! To celebrate a truly special year in cinema, the boys count down their favorite films of 2025. Did your personal picks make the cut? Find out!

Spine #85 - Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair [Feat. James Emanuel Shapiro]

Silly Caucasian boys like to play with samurai swords. With the unedited edition of KILL BILL finally hitting theaters, the fellas sit down with their buddy James Emanuel Shapiro to talk about Quentin Tarantino's magnum opus. Is it the best movie ever made, or the most movie ever made?

Spine #84 - Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

Ho ho ho motherfuckers, It's Christmas Time at Secret Handshake, so we fired up some of our favorite holiday set neo noir shoot 'em ups for old time's sake. Shane Black has always been one of the best, and it's time to tell you why.

Spine #83 - The Devil's Backbone

It's not a podcast about Guillermo del Toro...it's a podcast with Guillermo del Toro in it. To commemorate the release of FRANKENSTEIN, the boys look back at El Gordo's artsy creature feature filmography, starting with one of Marten's all-time favorites: THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE (2001). You might be surprised where their taste overlaps (and radically differs)!

Spine #82 - Night of the Demons

Let's party! They boys head to their local mortuary (not to mention the Exhumed Films Horror Thon) to throw a Halloween party and end up getting menaced by some dirty, horny monsters with NIGHT OF THE DEMONS (1988). Are there razor blades hidden in those candy apples? Take a bite and find out.

Spine #81 - Robocop

BITCHES LEAVE! The boys break down the filmography of one of Jacob's heroes: the Mad Dutchman himself, Paul Verhoeven. How many Facemelters does one man have in his body of work? We're not sure, but we'd certainly buy them all for a dollar!

Spine #80 - Darkman

I am everyone. No one. Everywhere. Nowhere. Call me...Darkman. The boys talk about their favorite comic movie that's not actually adapted from a real comic: Sam Raimi's Darkman. Is it as good as they remember? And where does it place in their Raimi rankings? Find out.
