JFD693: Deathstalker (2025), Scarecrow in a Garden of Cucumbers, F/X
Up first, Steven Kostanski the director who brought us such JFD classics as Frankie Freako, Psycho Goreman and Father's Day gives us his take on the 80's sword and sandals staple Deathstalker from 2025. With the violence and practical effects turned up to 11 and featuring Daniel Bernhardt in the titular role and Patton Oswalt providing the voice of his mystical sidekick, can this reboot live up to the original?
Next, Andy Warhol scenester Holly Woodlawn stars in the wacky musical comedy Scarecrow in a Garden of Cucumbers from 1972. The film, which has been unavailable for decades and just recently got restored and released by AGFA, chronicles the misadventures of a young woman looking for fame in love on the mean streets of New York City.
Finally, a professional special effects artist (Bryan Brown) is recruited by the US Department of Justice to stage a fake assassination of a prominent mob figure in the 1986 thriller F/X. The flick also stars many other recognizable character actors such as Brian Dennehy, Cliff De Young, Jerry Orbach and Tom Noonan.
All this plus Thanksgiving traditions, what balloons the boys are excited for at the parade this year, adventures in TV land, hot releases for Black Friday, cartoons on blu-ray and so much more!
