Pinchy has decided to spin the wheel of SHAMAN'S MYSTERY MOVIES and wouldn't you know it, she landed on Dark Angel: The Ascent! What the hell is Dark Angel: The Ascent? Why, only Full Moon Entertainment's random gonzo horror rom-com about Veronica, a vengeful demon, coming to earth to smite the wicked only to also fall in love with a dweeby doctor. There are hellhounds and torn-out spines in this movie that Longship calls "very respectful of your time." So hit play now!

Can you believe that there's a movie from the golden age of 90s counter-culture that Pinchy hasn't seen?? Deja vu, right? On this episode we're filling in a pretty glaring gap in Pinchy's movie knowledge by watching Tank Girl, which Shaman could have sworn she'd already seen. I mean seriously, it's one of the most Pinchy-coded movies ever! So pop in that Courtney Love-Cobain cassette tape and rev up your tank, 'cause there are mutant kangaroos hopping around in slow motion and they mean business.

Tank Girl (1995)

Can you believe that there's a movie from the golden age of Tim Burton that Pinchy hasn't seen?? Well on this episode, Shaman makes sure to rectify that situation because we're watching Ed Wood! Sure, it's not as supernatural and weird as some other Burton films, but there's a very good reason why Shaman considers it one of the director's best, and you can find out that reason (along with some extensive history lessons about b-movie filmmaking in 1960s Hollywood) just by hitting play. Let's shoot this fucker!

Ed Wood (1994)

There's no better way to celebrate 4/20 than by DOING SUBSTANCES WHILE WE WATCH THE SUBSTANCE! El Pinchito and the Shaman partake of some of Lucifer's Fungus as they watch the insane splatterfest (possibly blowcore) prestige movie that made waves on the awards circuit and also had people nearly losing their lunches in disgust. But is there more here than just butts and blood? We'll find out on this episode!

The Substance (2024)

Don't expose them to bright light. Don't get them wet. Never feed them after midnight. Hey wait, isn't it always after midnight? On our belated Christmas episode, Pinchy watches the classic movie Gremlins for the very first time and witnesses the awesomeness that is Mrs. Peltzer exploding a goblin in the microwave. Come along as she and the Shaman partake of different substances than usual and marvel at how edgy this movie for children is by 2024 standards.

To celebrate Halloween, Shaman and El Pinchito are watching...not a horror movie! Listen to our previous episode if you want something spooky, because on this one we're on the run with a supersoldier in the underrate wacky action comedy Drive. No, not the one with Ryan Gosling, the one with Walter the Einstein Frog! So stick your boots on your hands and get ready to kick the asses of a million goons.

What's your favourite tarot card? Is it...THE DEVIL? On this maritime themed episode of The Devil's Lettuce Film Socity, El Pinchito and the Shaman get together in meatspace for the first time in years to light up some of Poseidon's Cabbage and watch the 2024 trashy horror flick Tarot! Pinchy loves tarot cards - will the movie feature extremely well-researched depictions of the oracular arts, I wonder?? There's only one way to find out. Spark up that Mork and shuffle the cards.

Tarot (2024)

Shit, we missed 4/20! Better late than never, I guess! On this episode, Pinchy and the Shaman are taking a walk on the weird side as they watch the long-forgotten-then-rediscovered Gore Cut of the bizarre early-90s schlock-fest Tammy and the T-Rex! Who was this movie made for? Did she sleep with that robot dinosaur?? Words can't do it justice, folks, you'll just have to listen to us going insane.

 

Tammy and the T-Rex (1994)

Director: Stewart Raffill

Writer: Stewart Raffill, Gary Brockette

Do you believe in ghosts? Do aliens exist? Would you let bigfoot pee in your mouth? El Pinchito and the Shaman tackle the big questions in this intimate episode of the Devil's Lettuce Film Society as they watch Tom Delonge's feature film debut Monsters of California! Can Tom somehow reconcile the two sides of himself: the extremely juvenile one and the one who thinks that aliens are behind all of humanity's technological advancements? Probably not, but hopefully it's fun to hear us contemplate it!

 

Monsters of California (2023)

Director: Tom Delonge

Writer: Tom Delonge, Ian Miller
