    Neon Brainiacs (A Retro Horror Movie Podcast)

    Neon Brainiacs is a comedy podcast about retro horror movies with your hosts, and independent filmmakers, Ben and Lance (and former co-host Gregg).

    Your heroes break down the movie’s plot, remember the good times, and get lost in plenty of humorous diversions. We love to engage with our audience, and hope you’re willing to be in on the joke. While we do a play-by-play of the movie, this show is tailored a little more for those looking to laugh at their work desk. Nostalgia and laughs rule the day.

    We open with some fun banter, then Lance does some production history and BTS info with his “Shpiel”, and finally we break down the movie’s plot beat-by-beat via Ben’s rigorous note taking.

    From fan-favorite films to deep cuts of the ’70s, ’80, ’90s, and 2000s, no stone is left unturned regarding these retro horror movie gems.

    Show notes

    Grab your jester hat and get ready to prank your friends because today is April Fool's Day, so naturally we're talking the 1986 slasher of the same name!

    Show notes

    Get ready to pig out this week, maniacs, because we're talking about 1987's Slaughterhouse with our buddy Travis Ayers! He was the party responsible for putting together our live Q&A with George Hardy last year so we're very excited to have him on the show. While we dissect the Bacon clan's dirty deeds, we also discuss topics like the dangerous playgrounds of yesteryear, Warped Tour, David Letterman and Slaughterhouse reworked as a sitcom.

    The final week of our cop trilogy is here, maniacs, and we're closing it out with 1989's Psycho Cop! As we try to make sense of this movie, we also discuss topics such as outdoor phones, boxed soup and the proper footwear for chopping wood.

    Show notes

    You can't keep a good maniac dead! Week two of our cop trilogy is upon us and we're talking 1988's horror/action/comedy Dead Heat with returning guest Josh!

    Show notes

    You have the right to remain silent forever, maniacs, because we're kicking off three weeks of cop terror with the 1988 William Lustig flick Maniac Cop! We've got it all this week... Bruce Campbell! Tom Atkins! Robert Z'dar! Lots of great genre actors in this one.


    BONUS - Linnea Quigley's Horror Workout (1990) COMMENTARY Feb 27, 2020
    Show notes

    Surprise, maniacs! We wanted to round out Women In Horror Month with something very special, so we were joined by our favorite ghouls, Sarah and Amanda from the Ghoul On Ghoul podcast, to do a bonus commentary track for Linnea Quigley's Horror Workout! You can find the movie on YouTube and follow along as we talk about what we all thought of this infamous piece of horror nostalgia. We'd also highly suggest donating to Linnea's Moulin Rouge dog rescue as well.

    Show notes

    This week we're wrapping up Women In Horror Month on the police beat! We're joined by writer Chauncey K. Robinson to discuss Katt Shea's 1987 slasher mystery Stripped To Kill. While we discuss the subversion of this film's plot, we also talk about topics such as the VHS dubbing woes of our youth, receiving weapons as gifts, and Ben's favorite car: the Suzuki Samurai.


    128 - Blood Diner (1987) Feb 19, 2020
    Show notes

    Week 3 of Women In Horror Month is upon us, maniacs, so let's grab a bite to eat at Blood Diner with our friends from the Queens Of NC-17 podcast! Ande, China and Eanna were gracious enough to join us in our friend (and two-time former guest) Brian's studio to discuss this 1987 cult flick. While we check out the menu, we also discuss topics such as real-life eye terror, sketchy parties and Sheetar: the guitar for girls!


    127 - Slumber Party Massacre (1982) Feb 12, 2020
    Show notes

    Women In Horror Month continues on the show with a great movie and great guest. We're discussing 1982's Slumber Party Massacre with Jenn Wexler, director of The Ranger! We talk about her experience making films, what we've been watching recently, then discuss the topic at hand. While dissecting this feat of feminist horror, we also discuss topics such as Denny's, Kool-Aid, and Peter Steele's spread in Playgirl Magazine.
