Torture Cinema Poll #10 Results: Our Next Torture…
Jen is really going to hate me for this, and Paul too, but it had to be done. Thanks to all our listeners, we will be reviewing the following stinker of a movie:
Torture Cinema Poll #10: What should we watch next?
Well, it’s that time again. You get to decide how much pain to cause us at the end of the month. Have at it…

Hooray us! In order to celebrate, we’ve brought on Paul Weimer and Jen’s Husband (a.k.a. Normal Pants) to talk about the infamous film adaptation of Doom, starring Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson and Karl Urban (that slightly sexy guy from Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Riddick). Oh, and to sweeten the pot, we put on a lovely little skit involving Macho Man Randy Savage, the Honky Tonk Man, Chyna, Michael Buffer (the “let’s get ready to rumble” guy), and a random TMZ reporter. It may be slightly funny. We don’t know… Anywho! We hope you enjoy the episode!

Torture Cinema Poll #9: Emergency Movie Poll — Help Us Fill the Gap!
Jen and I were supposed to read Tom Kratman’s Caliphate, but after trying to read the book, we realized that the kind of bad we are looking for when we do these Torture Media segments doesn’t exist there. Caliphate is a bad book, but it’s not a book that we can make fun off without crossing our own lines of comfort with comedy. That’s where you all come in! We need to pick a movie for Torture Cinema, and fast! If you’ll be so kind, please vote for the bad movie you’d like us to watch this week to fill the gap. The poll will run for 24 hours. Thanks!
