Show Me Something Wrong

Dave shows Guy BIG MONEY RUSTLAS and nearly ends their friendship. This is a Western from 2010 starring Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope of the Insane Clown Posse. It is a carnival of bad jokes, clown makeup, Jason Mewes pissing his pants, and horse-punching. Featuring some truly baffling cameos from Vanilla Ice to Tom Sizemore to Screech from SAVED BY THE BELL. Dave shares his personal history as an teenage juggalo, and Guy comes close to a full mental breakdown. Whoop whoop? Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Guy shows Dave MIND FUCK from 1990 (maybe), directed by Mah Wu Tu (maybe), from China (maybe). This period piece porn film is an absolute mystery. Its existence is totally baffling, and Guy digs deeper than ever to attempt to uncover the truth. Black magic battles, S&M whippings, possessed corpses, the longest shower in history, a buck-toothed hunchback, and a farting ninja—regardless of this film's confusing origins, it is a very fun watch!

Remember our episode about SUPER XUXA CONTRA BAIXO ASTRAL? The Brazilian movie starring Queen of the Little Ones, Xuxa, and a whole lot of puppets? Well, Guy has uncovered a very upsetting urban legend about a piece of Xuxa paraphernalia and child murder! Come join us for this spooky mini! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Dave shows Guy THE BLACK CAT from 1989, not to be confused with the million other films with the same title. This is the one directed by Luigi Cozzi, the Italian b-movie master and charismatic clerk of Dario Argento's Profondo Rosso Store! This film is a sort-of-kind-of meta sequel to Argento's SUSPIRIA and goes to some extremely strange spacey places. Cue vomit, haunted fridges, incongruous rock songs, and random cutaways to black cats! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter. Show Me Something Wrong theme song by JUNK!

Guy shows Dave HAWK JONES from 1986. The tagline for this sums it up perfectly: The movie with the kids in it! Yep, HAWK JONES is a buddy-cop crime caper with a cast made up entirely of tiny kids. Despite being aimed at a young audience, the kids spout sexist quips, smoke cigars, and blast each other to death with guns and grenades. HAWK JONES also features the greatest villain of straight-to-video cinema: THE DESTROYER! This is a fun one! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Dave shows Guy END OF THE WICKED, a Nigerian film from 1999 made by Helen Ukpabio and the Liberty Gospel Church. This is definitely the darkest thing we've ever talked about as Dave digs deep into its disturbing backstory of Christian propaganda and child witch accusations. But not to worry, there's plenty of goofy video effects, vomit-spattered witch make-up, humans turning into guinea pigs, cross-eyed electrocutions, and dog ghosts floating out of dead bodies to keep everyone happy. All that and blood-deprived Beelzebub at the centre of the proceedings. Bring on the trauma! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter. Show Me Something Wrong theme song by JUNK!

Guy shows Dave WEREWOLF from 1987, not to be confused with the many other films with the same title released around the same time. This one is from Thailand and directed by Sommai Khamsorn. Even if you haven't seen the film, you may have seen a clip from it titled "Greatest Werewolf Transformation Scene Ever". There is more to WEREWOLF than just that scene though. It also features crotch-thrusting zombies, cinema's worst wig, and a cackling witch with a massive chin. This film is as cooked as it gets. Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Warning: This is an especially gross episode. Our third and final mini episode about our recent trip to Tokyo! In this episode, we discuss our visit to Ryuji Yamamoto's izakaya. Yamamoto is an absolute legend of the AV and pinku world and has worked with everyone from Hisayasu Sato to Akio Jissoji. And, most importantly for us, Yamamoto featured in previous Show Me Something Wrong episode, DOG AND AUNT! Yamamoto was both fun and terrifying to speak to. Also featured in this episode: a long tangent about free gyoza and a discussion of our nightcap with Shozin Fukui. Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Dave shows Guy OGROFF aka MAD MUTILATOR from 1983, a French Super 8 slasher. Directed by Norbert Moutier (often credited as N. G. Mount), this film is an insane masterpiece. Every frame is utterly mad with chainsaw fights, incongruous zombies, kid murder, cars being battered to bits, and axes being used in ways they shouldn't. And it's all set to a relentless score that sounds like it was recorded in a lunatic's basement. Dave digs deep into Moutier's fascinating backstory, discussing his work outside of OGROFF.

The second of three mini episodes about our recent trip to Tokyo! This was recorded after we went out for drinks with Hisayasu Sato and Kôichi Imaizumi. Like minutes after. So, at this point we're like ten beers in and recording the middle of a vomit-strewn Shinjuku street. We share some of the fun stories we heard from Sato and once again discuss our love of his first film DISTORTED SENSE OF TOUCH. Enjoy! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Guy shows Dave BLOODY BUNS, a Hong Kong CAT III from 2002. It's a film about a man who murders a family, grinds them up, and turns them into human pork buns. Sound familiar? Yep, BLOODY BUNS is an almost scene-for-scene remake of Herman Yau's 1993 masterpiece THE UNTOLD STORY. Only crappy. So, so crappy. Join us as we lose our minds watching this horrendous film and discuss our love for the brilliant original that it rips off so poorly! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

The first of three mini episodes about our recent trip to Tokyo! This episode was recorded on location in Shinjuku. We discuss the screening of two Hisayasu Sato films: his new film, DEAR KAITA ABLAZE (2023), and his first film, DISTORTED SENSE OF TOUCH (1985). DISTORTED OF SENSE OF TOUCH was a particularly exciting watch as it so rarely shown. After the screening, we were able to chat with Sato and hear a few exciting tidbits about his career.

Dave shows Guy SOFT SKIN (やわらかい肌) from 1998 directed by none other than Hisayasu Sato, our first returnee director... listen to episode 5: NEIGH MEANS YES if you dare! SOFT SKIN is quite unusual for Sato. It falls (somewhat) outside of the pink genre and, at least at first, seems oddly gentle. However, it's not long before things go haywire with eyeball-licking and a chicken leg being used in a very alarming way. This is truly one of his best and weirdest works!

Guy shows Dave DOG AND AUNT (犬とおばさん) from 1995... sigh... well, we're ready to see our subscribers drop dramatically after this crap. We first became aware of this repugnant film way back in our NEIGH MEANS YES episode, and, after a year and a bit, Guy dredged the gutter and managed to unearth it. DOG AND AUNT is directed by well-known female pinku director Sachi Hamano and tells a sweat-ridden tale of the love between an aunt and an Old English Sheepdog. This is a real film. We promise. And we're very, very sorry. Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter. Show Me Something Wrong theme song by JUNK!

Dave shows Guy THE BONEYARD from 1991, directed by special effects artist James Cummins. While the DVD cover may feature a goofy zombie poodle, this film is legitimately shocking at times with some of the most horrifying corpse effects in cinema history. Child zombies, Phyllis Diller, gross slime, failed suicide attempts, and psychic trauma–this is one hell of a schizophrenic films! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Guy shows Dave ZOMBI VIII: URBAN DECAY from 2021 and seriously puts their friendship in jeopardy. This unofficial sequel to Lucio Fulci's zombie classic is truly unlike anything we've covered before (and hopefully never will again). With its slow motion footage of goth-hippy girls dancing topless to rap tunes by MC Dirty D, this is worlds apart from its source material. This film may also hold the record for the most stock footage ever used in a feature film. Enjoy our descent into madness as we watch a spider make a web for ten minutes.

In this very short mini, Guy shares the jaw-dropping story behind AN OLD MAN AND HIS DOG, a Chinese film from 1993 that was a huge hit when first released. But what makes this seemingly gentle movie about a man and his "big yellow dog" worthy of an appearance on Show Me Something Wrong? Oh boy... this gets dark...

Dave shows Guy SUPER XUXA CONTRA BAIXO ASTRAL aka SUPER XUXA VERSUS THE DOWN MOOD from 1988. This Brazilian film stars the legendary Xuxa, known in her home country as the "Queen of the Little Ones". The target audience for SUPER XUXA is kids, so expect a lot of crystals and rainbows. However, also prepare yourself for an upsetting caterpillar puppet, a dolphin who is worried about his eyes being plucked out, finger-severing, Nickelodeon-esque sewerage sliming, and a damning social commentary on the environment and bureaucracy! To help us unpack all of this, we are joined by SUPER XUXA's co-director, David Sonnenschein! This is a wild one! Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter.

Guy shows Dave FATAL TERMINATION, a Hong Kong actioner from 1990! While this is perhaps not the usual thing we cover, it features a single scene that is among the wrongest moments captured on camera and left us both utterly gobsmacked. Also along for the ride: rocket launchers, back-breaking stunts, helicopter chase scenes, sauna beatings, and a bizarre connection to one of our earlier podcast episodes! This is a fun one.

Dave shows Guy HYPER VILLAIN from 2011! This is one of the most upsetting films we've covered in a while and a definite outlier in the career of fake documentary maverick Koji Shiraishi. We follow the titular Hyper Villain, a serial rapist and head-basher, as he prepares to celebrate the anniversary of his first sexual assault. While it sounds unbelievably grim (and it is), this teeters between genres, becoming very blackly funny as it wallows in disgusting obscenity. Join us for another uncomfortable watch!
