HOSTS: Wright and Eric
Join Eric Samaniego and Wright Sulek as they paw through the dustbin of movie history for lost gems, forgotten treasures, and most of all, TRASH. With an affection for all things schlock, the boys watch a different movie every other week and discuss it with a very special guest. Let’s get trashed!
Check out earlier episodes of Trash in the Can right here.
Bride of Boogedy
Some stories deserve a second chapter. This is not one of those stories. Returning guest and UIL Honorable Mention Cast winner, Jarred Schiff, joins Eric and Wright for the worst thing to come out of Disney since that girl was killed at Disneyland in the 70s. They watched the long awaited sequel to Mr. Boogedy, 1987’s Bride of Boogedy.
The Mystical Adventures of Billy Owens
Imagine the Harry Potter franchise but as a Canadian public access show with visuals from a Windows 95 screensaver and you’ve got this week’s movie. Come for Rowdy Roddy Piper’s incomprehensible accent and stay for Eric’s gym class trauma. Guest Baylor Johnson joins the boys for The Mystical Adventures of Billy Owens!
Body Melt
This week, witness the most disgusting thing to come out of Australia since vegemite. Guest Liz Rische returns for body horror from down under featuring 90s house music, a peeping parrot, and at least one exploding penis. The only thing grosser is our attempt at Australian accents. Join us for 1993’s ozploitation mess, Body Melt!
Walking On Sunshine
Mamma mia! All your favorite background noise grocery shopping hits are now in your favorite movie playing in the empty hospital waiting room! Caroline Sulek returns for soul patches, the worst bangs in Italian history, and a leading man so generic we thought it was a different guy in every scene. We watched 2014’s jukebox musical rip-off, Walking on Sunshine!
Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat
If you’ve ever wanted to see beloved character actor/presumed alcoholic M.Emmet channel the Kool-aid man, have we got a movie for you! Brendon K. O’Grady returns this week for breaded bats, high school theater sets, and a performance by David Carradine that really grabs you by the throat. We watched 1989’s horror western comedy Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat.
