  • Feliz Día del Padre: El extraño Hijo Del Sheriff (1986) & Ratas De La Ciudad (1986)
    Jun 22 2026

    Feliz Día del Padre a todo los Padres!

    Fathers love hard & often have to do challenging actions to prove it!

    Father’s Day has come and Joey & Armando picked two very unique Mexican films about fathers to discuss.

    Joey discusses the wild Mexican horror-western hybrid El Extraño Hijo Del Sheriff (1986):

    • A strong-armed sheriff has his conjoined twin sons separated and after one of them dies, very unusual & supernatural things begin to happen. Could the dead twin be haunting from the beyond? Or is the living twin doing all the evil deeds?

    Armando then goes in to the top defining Trash-Mex film Ratas De La Ciudad (1986):

    • After being unfairly separated from his son, a man named Pedro (Valentin Trujillo) goes through a brutal & desperate search for him. His son however has long forgotten about him & is now in a street gang that steal & kill with no mercy.

  • Madres Malditas: Obsesión De Matar (1992) & Esclavas Del Sadismo (1994)
    May 11 2026

    What could be the most vile Trash-Mex movies to watch on Mother’s Day? Well, we got two choices and both involve not so great mothers..

    Ismael Rodriguez Jr takes on Psycho IV with a better version: Obsesión De Matar (1992)

    • On a nightly talk radio show, a man nicknamed “Pepe” calls in to discuss his incestuous relationship with his mother that lead into “Matricide” & other brutal murders. The talk show host & guest are skeptical of the caller, but his dark story unfolds to something much more sinister & very personal to someone working on the show.

    Second feature is Esclavas Del Sadismo (1994), a film that only someone like the late & forever great director Christian Gonzalez would make!

    • An unusual mother lets her son make dirty films in the basement of their apartment building. Sleaze all around, even amongst the law.

    Mar 9 2026

    Hosts Armando & Joey and special guest Mariana Da Silva of El Cine discuss three legendary Mexican actresses & highlight one of their films:

    • The ever so captivating & ultra-talented Ofelia Medina stars in “Patsy, Mi Amor (1969)”, a coming of age drama about a young woman in the late 1960’s.

    • The most famous vedette from yesteryear & today Lyn May makes her film debut in “Tivoli (1975)”, a social drama about an aging theater on the verge of being torn down.

    • 1980’s Mexican beauty pageant favorite turned actress Lina Santos shows her true acting talents in “La Diosa Del Puerto (1989)”, a gritty drama loosely based on “Le Port” by Guy de Maupassant.
