The Last Drive-In: Season Four, Week Three: The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane and Housebound
Art by T.J. Denton (@TDenton_1138) on Twitter. A lesser show would have gone with the expected. We’re talking the low-hanging fruit that a bullfrog with one leg in a cast could still jump up and get — it’s Friday the 13th, so let’s play a couple flicks that happen in Crystal Lake, N.Y., where some […]
The Last Drive-In — Season Four, Week Two: Black Sunday and Def by Temptation
With the help of copious visual aids, two great flicks and earthy Eastern European alcoholic beverages (not necessarily in that order), a movement was born outside the trailer on the second week of The Lost Drive-In as Joe Bob and Darcy initiated a movement. And what a movement it is. I think we all can […]
The Last Drive-In — Season Four, Week Uno: Night of the Living Dead and Anthropophagus
Like that human-sized cicada from The Beast Within or the grown dude that emerges very painfully from that prone lady in Xtro, we emerged from our Last Drive-in offseason dormancy, and lo and behold, lookie here, we find out that it’s been 100 flicks (give or take because math in Grapevine is different than other […]
The Last Drive-In | Heartbreak Trailer Park
As always, T.J. Denton (@TDenton_1138 on Twitter) is responsible for the art! At the Heartbreak Trailer Park, you get it all … and you don’t even have to spend any of the estimated $13.29 billion that folks dump into the economy for Valentine’s Day. Well, that is, UNLESS your Shudder subscription ended up needing to […]
The Last Drive-In | Joe Bob Ruins Christmas
As the opening holiday rant before Joe Bob ruined Christmas (again) made clear, there’s always room at the Last Drive-In’s inn (or screen if you wanna get technical about it). The big question is whether it’s a room where you wanna spend some quality time when Joe Bob Ruins Christmas. One Christmas you might get […]
The Last Drive-In | The Walkin Dead special
Like that sappy power ballad from three, going on four, decades ago says, we won’t know what we got till it’s gone. Because a bit more than 11 years ago, the Walking Dead TV show lurched on the scene, making the horror of cannibalistic reanimated corpses eating folks in Georgia as mainstream as it’d ever […]
The Last Drive-In | Halloween Hoedown
A pun for the ages, two modern horror heavyweights with their hands on Halloween and a bunch of creatively carved pumpkins. The Hoedown defied expectations and rang in the Druidic New Year as only The Last Drive-In can.
All about the First Joe Bob’s Jamboree from someone who was there for most of it
All about the four-day ‘Drive-In Woodstock’ featuring How Rednecks Saved Hollywood, Mutant Fest, a live Last Drive-In and the Drive-In of Dread at the Mahoning Drive-In On the first day, the Mutants saw How Rednecks Saved Hollywood, Burt Reynolds at his peak (cause Darcy was dressed up like him) and, oh yeah, the Mahoning Drive-In […]
The Last Drive-In | Season Three-o, Week Ten-o: Roger Corman Night — Little Shop of Horrors (1960) and Humanoids From the Deep (1980)
Still the center of the Drive-In Universe from whom practically all roads lead, the great Roger Corman was guest as we wrapped up Season Three with “Little Shop of Horrors” and “Humanoids From the Deep.”
The Last Drive-In | Season Three-o, Week Eight-o: Sledgehammer and Things
Do not adjust your tracking (actually you should) — Joe Bob had VHS Night on The Last Drive-In. (Art by T.J. Denton @TDenton_1138 on Twitter) The shortest episode of this season of The Last Drive-In was the one that may have tested the constitutions, attention spans, eyeballs and, verily, the souls of Mutants everywhere the most.
