Spine #86 - Keoma
2026/01/30
"A MAN WHO IS FREE NEVER DIES!"
Marten begins his journey through the annals of Italian exploitation cinema, with Jacob giggling along for the ride. His first stop: the violent, entertaining, marinara genre collaborations between Enzo Castellari and Franco Nero, including the acid trip spaghetti Western, KEOMA. Pick up a six-shooter and throw a tab on your tongue, we're going to Genoa!
Bonus Episode - Primate
2026/01/22
Happy New Year! We took a quick break to settle in, but now we're back with all the killer monkey movies in celebration of Johannes Roberts' badass creature feature PRIMATE. A movie that answers the question: what if Cujo was a rabid chimp? Find out in our latest Bonus Episode.
Bonus Episode - Our Favorite Films of 2025
2025/12/31

Spine #85 - Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair [Feat. James Emanuel Shapiro]
2025/12/24
Silly Caucasian boys like to play with samurai swords. With the unedited edition of KILL BILL finally hitting theaters, the fellas sit down with their buddy James Emanuel Shapiro to talk about Quentin Tarantino's magnum opus. Is it the best movie ever made, or the most movie ever made?
Spine #84 - Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
2025/12/14
Ho ho ho m***********s, It's Christmas Time at Secret Handshake, so we fired up some of our favorite holiday set neo noir shoot 'em ups for old time's sake. Shane Black has always been one of the best, and it's time to tell you why.
Spine #83 - The Devil's Backbone
2025/11/14
It's not a podcast about Guillermo del Toro...it's a podcast with Guillermo del Toro in it. To commemorate the release of FRANKENSTEIN, the boys look back at El Gordo's artsy creature feature filmography, starting with one of Marten's all-time favorites: THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE (2001). You might be surprised where their taste overlaps (and radically differs)!
Spine #82 - Night of the Demons
2025/10/31
Let's party! They boys head to their local mortuary (not to mention the Exhumed Films Horror Thon) to throw a Halloween party and end up getting menaced by some dirty, horny monsters with NIGHT OF THE DEMONS (1988). Are there razor blades hidden in those candy apples? Take a bite and find out.
Spine #81 - Robocop
2025/10/27
BITCHES LEAVE! The boys break down the filmography of one of Jacob's heroes: the Mad Dutchman himself, Paul Verhoeven. How many Facemelters does one man have in his body of work? We're not sure, but we'd certainly buy them all for a dollar!
Spine #80 - Darkman
2025/10/23
I am everyone. No one. Everywhere. Nowhere. Call me...Darkman. The boys talk about their favorite comic movie that's not actually adapted from a real comic: Sam Raimi's Darkman. Is it as good as they remember? And where does it place in their Raimi rankings? Find out.
Spine #79 - [REC]
2025/09/18
Never stop recording, for fuck's sake! The boys delve deep into the found footage phenomenon, starting with Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza's deeply unsettling Spanish sensation, [REC]. Will anyone put the camera down, or will we see the last things they ever did before their untimely demises? Find out here.
Spine #78 - To Live and Die in LA
2025/09/12
WHY YOU CHASING ME?
WHY YOU RUNNING?
The boys are in hot pursuit of the filmography of Bad Boy Billy Friedkin, using his coked out '80s crime opus TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA as a jumping off point to discuss one of the great bodies of work in American cinema history. Will they catch Rick Masters in the process? Find out now.
Spine #77 - Ride the High Country
2025/09/04
If they move...kill 'em! The boys jump on their trusty steeds and make sure their iron's loaded as they head toward Mexico to interrogate the nasty, violent works of "Bloody" Sam Peckinpah, starting with his watershed transitional Western, RIDE THE HIGH COUNTRY ('62). Saddle up for a long ride filled with booze, women, and many, many dead bodies as they bond over this essential filmmaker's output.
Spine #76 - Razorback
2025/08/27
G'Day boys and girls! On this installment, the boys go Down Under to explore the wacky, wild world of Ozploitation, starting with Russell Mulcahy's psychedelic killer pic flick, RAZORBACK. Grab yer beers, as this one of those jam packed episodes with a bunch of titles you can't miss.
Spine #75 - Blue Velvet
2025/08/24
In dreams, I walk with you. In dreams, I talk to you. The boys return to say goodbye to the late, great David Lynch, celebrating one of his crowning achievements as America's foremost avant garde pervert: BLUE VELVET. Things get just as wistful as they do weird.
Bonus Episode - The Filmography of Mean Gene Hackman
2025/04/20
The Grim Reaper is quite active in 2025, so the boys decide to do the first of a few tribute episodes, this one in honor of the great character actor-cum-leading man, Mean Gene Hackman. Was he the greatest actor of his generation and why did he inspire so many of his colleagues (not to mention audience members)? The boys investigate one of the greats on this Bonus Episode.
