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 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 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. […]
The Last Drive-In | Season Three-o, Week Seven-o: Mutantist Paper 2: Train to Busan and Spookies
Mutantis Paper 1 was lost back in 1982. The emergence of a double-feature so confounding — Train to Busan and Spookies — in quality has inspired Mutantist Paper 2.
The Last Drive-In | Season Three-o, Week Six-o: Maniac Cop Uno and Two-o
Two four-star drive-in flicks that are socially relevant even 30 years after their release and two super special guests — Bruce Campbell and William Lustig — keep Season Three firing on all cylinders.
The Last Drive-In | Season Three-o, Week Five-o: Mandy and Dead & Buried
Week 5 featured a flick with a classic bathroom freakout, garbonzas missing from the Drive-In Totals and oh, yeah — Chili Bandit.
The Last Drive-In | Season Three-o, Week Four-o: Ginger Snaps and Fried Barry
This week’s double feature struggles with weighty existential questions: Is menstruation or lycanthropy the worse experience for a Canadian teenager? Does heroin addiction make you more likely to be abducted by aliens?
