Steve and Izzy (from Everything I Learned From Movies) and Robby join Mike and Bobby to discuss a movie requested from one of our longtime Patreon members, Gregory Freeman. Silver Dream Racer (1980) features a scene that will be talked about on the Grindbin for years to come.  

Sep 16, 2020

Bobby, Spencer (We Cut Heads: A Spike Lee Podcast), and Mike discuss one of the most disgusting movies ever made... Street Trash (1987). Thanks to Trent on the Patreon for picking this movie. 

Sep 2, 2020

Nick, Lee, Bobby, and Mike discuss a movie about a guy... from Harlem. If you're looking for action, romance, suspense, and an ending you'd never see coming; this movie is not for you. The Guy From Harlem is one of those movies that has to be seen to be believed, a movie only the Grindbin could make you care about.

Aug 12, 2020

Tanner, Faustus, Bobby and Mike discuss the Isaac Hayes classic Truck Turner. With a brilliant performance from Yaphet Kotto and a shocking role for Nichelle Nichols (Uhura on Star Trek), Truck Turner is a fun movie that is recommended viewing for any fans of exploitation cinema. 

Jul 8, 2020

Summer Sequel Month 2020 begins with the return of Burt Reynolds as Gator McKlusky. We covered White Lightning years ago and this sequel has... nothing to do with it. Bobby, Robby, Tanner, and Mike break down Burt Reynolds' directing debut. 

Jul 1, 2020

If there is one thing we've always loved on the Grindbin, it's the 1970's. Then came Mag Wheels... Who would have thought the director of Midnight Plowboy could create one of the most offensive movies of all time? Something so vile that it's been nearly wiped off the internet in an attempt to never show the true horrors that lurk beneath its celluloid skin.

Jun 17, 2020

Eddie the Axe (The Let's Get Shitty Show) and Steve and Izzy (Everything I Learned From Movies) join Bobby and Mike to talk about the Larry Cohen classic... The Stuff (1985). Because enough is never enough... 

Jun 4, 2020

Bobby, The McCollums and Mike discuss a movie about a killer car that's not called Christine. A killer car is on the loose is a small desert town and it's up to James Brolin to stop it. Thanks to Patreon member John Corbin for this pick!

May 20, 2020

Grindbin All-star Hal Needham has sent us an Angel in the form of the gloriously bad 80's BMX film RAD. Does the director of Smokey and the Bandit know anything about BMX bikes? Is Lori Loughlin trying to scam her way into college? Did this kid actually spend 10 grand on T-shirts? Well get ready to go ass sliding with the bin and find out. 

May 13, 2020

Leo Fong, Cameron Mitchell, and Stack Pierce return to the Grindbin for a second helping of that infamous Fong charisma. While Killpoint established Leo Fong as an action star, Low Blow shows us that Leo is both a ladies man and a comedian. A real triple threat!

May 6, 2020

Do you like punk music? Do you like skateboards? Do you like Greek mythology? Well you will LOVE Shredder Orpheus... 

Apr 29, 2020

Pinball Summer (1980), a movie that is supposed to be about harmless fun and teens enjoying a summer break is anything but. You want to lose your faith in humanity? Fire up Pinball Summer! What the hell is wrong with Canada?!

Apr 22, 2020

Steve and Izzy from Everything I Leaned from Movies (https://twitter.com/eilfmovies) join The McCollum boys, Bobby, and Mike for an epic episode of the Grindbin. In one of Cameron Mitchell's drunkest performances yet and certainly his best role on the bin, Killpoint is a Crown International action movie that is so bad it must be seen. Featuring action "star" Leo Fong in a deadpan performance that would make Chuck Norris grin. 

Apr 15, 2020

The boys are joined by Nick (https://thecreaturecodex.tumblr.com/) to talk about a monster movie from Crown International! The Crater Lake Monster, not filmed at Crater Lake, and featuring some of the best day for night shots you'll ever see, is a fun throwback to the heights of Loch Ness fever. 

Apr 8, 2020

The boys have finally reached episode 200 of the Grindbin and what better way to celebrate than by covering Supervan (1977). Thanks to all our wonderful listeners who've stuck with us and all the new people that have hitched a ride on the Straight Arrow along the way. Bobby, start the van!

Apr 1, 2020

The boys go back to school in great exploitation gem from a Grindbin all star director. A new teacher at a troubled inner-city high school (Perry King) soon ends up clashing with the delinquent leader of a punk posse (Timothy Van Patten) that runs the school. Featuring an appearance by a pre-Back to the Future Michael J. Fox!

Mar 19, 2020

Are you ready for this? Daniel joins Bobby and Mike to discuss a great little horror film from 1986 starring one of the most notorious actors of all time, Klaus Kinski. Thanks to Patreon member Gregory Freeman for recommending this movie!

Mar 11, 2020

The Roger Corman classic finally arrives on the Grindbin thanks to our Patreon member Mike Ratcliff! In a dystopian future, a cross country automobile race requires contestants to run down innocent pedestrians to gain points that are tallied based on each kill's brutality.

Feb 19, 2020

DISCLAIMER: this is actually from the Grindbin Patreon... Bobby, Tanner, and Mike recorded this full length episode for the MINI bin in April of 2019. A new Grindbin episode will be out next week!

Feb 12, 2020

Mann, Bobby, and Mike are joined by long-time listener and Grindbin Patreon member David from Australia! David brings Ozploitation back to the bin with the legendary Brian Trenchard-Smith flick, Turkey Shoot. We also make him explain himself for choosing Lunch Wagon... and the way back in the early days of the Grindbin.

Feb 5, 2020

Bobby and Mike are joined by Patreon member Robby to discuss Grindbin All-Star Russ Meyer's return to the Grindbin. Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, written by Roger Ebert (yes, THAT Roger Ebert), is one of Meyer's only studio films and an interesting piece of exploitation cinema history. 

Jan 21, 2020

A Patreon request from Richard Clarke brings one of the greatest movies we've ever seen to the Grindbin. House (Hausu) is a MUST watch for any exploitation film fan. The movie finally comes to the Grindbin and Bobby, The Howling Boyz, and Mike couldn't be more excited to try and explain the absolute madness of Hausu. Long live Mac!

Jan 15, 2020

On a very special episode of the Grindbin, Tanner, Bobby and Mike discuss the movie SuperSonic Man as it played during the last episode of Son of Svengoolie on WFLD-TV Channel 32 in Chicago. Complete with local commercials from 1986, this is an episode of the Grindbin not to be missed. 

Jan 8, 2020

Faustus joins Bobby and Mike to discuss one of the most infamous exploitation movies of all time. A movie that was a massive success, spawned multiple sequels, and was even reviewed in the New York Times, is still as shocking now as it ever was. 

Jan 3, 2020

Bobby and Mike are joined by the Howling Boyz to discuss a great, disturbing movie that is a good example of innovative filmmaking in the exploitation genre. The Candy Snatchers is a disturbing and unique film that contains some really surprising twists that certainly separate it from most Grindbin fare. So start swinging those hammers and enjoy!
