41. Rawhead Rex (1987)

Wrapping up our Irish themed month we, somewhat unintentionally, watched the most Irish horror movie we could find, Rawhead Rex! There is something to be said for bad horror movies that seem to have one absolutely captivating scene, and I don't think we have had a more clear example of it on the show so far. We definitely had fun watching this one, but it also left us wanting in many ways. Clive Barker hated this movie so much we received Hellraiser because of it, and that is a trade I think we here on the show will make 100 times out of 100. Regardless of that though, was Rawhead (Rex) a solid horror villian? Did THAT scene go on too long? Most importantly though, is it essential? ************************************************** TIMECODES 0:00 - Intro 1:47 - Spoiler Warning 2:23 Synopsis 2:46 - Discussion 29:20 - Final Review 34:47 - Is it essential? 42:00 - Socials, Suggestions, Sign Off ************************************************** Rate and subscribe!
