Paul McCoy and John Meredith deliver a Christmas special episode of the Psycho Drive‑In Podcast, dissecting two wildly unexpected holiday films: the Finnish fantasy‑horror RARE EXPORTS (2010) and the Scottish Christmas musical zombie film ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE (2017).

Expect spoiler discussions, offbeat laughs, recommendations for other nontraditional Christmas movies, and notes on where to stream these cult favorites.

Paul McCoy and John E. Meredith tackle three unforgettable cult horrors — the 1989 Canadian shocker Things, the surreal 1977 cult film Death Bed: The Bed That Eats, and the bizarre 1983 British sci‑fi horror Xtro — breaking down their low‑budget effects, overdubbed audio, and midnight‑movie charm.

They mix irreverent commentary, production anecdotes, and genuine appreciation for the DIY spirit that brought these chaotic films to life.

This episode is for fans of schlocky classics, midnight‑movie oddities, and anyone who enjoys being entertained by movies that defy explanation.

Hosts John and Paul break down two recent releases — Predator: Badlands and The Running Man — weighing the risks and rewards of Badlands’ predator-as-protagonist approach, the film’s violence and effects, and Running Man’s glossy anti-corporate message that often feels sanitized.

The episode also touches on TV and indie film picks (Slow Horses, It: Welcome to Derry, The Lowdown, Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein), recommends favorites like Prey and The Toxic Avenger, and teases future episodes focused on cult and gloriously trashy cinema.
