The Selling and The Fields

Obscurity, thy name is The Basement. But that's what The Basement is all about -- finding and reviewing those off-the-grid B-movies and letting you know which ones to watch and what to avoid.

Tonight's double bill features a couple of flicks most people haven't heard of or seen. Well, one for sure. The other, maybe.

As if selling a house isn't hard enough, try selling one that's haunted. That's the premise behind the horror-comedy The Selling, which is slowly unspooling on VOD and the festival circuit. Haunted house movies are ripe for spoofing. And who doesn't mind making fun of a realtor or two? Does this high-concept comedy hit or miss? Stick with us!

Then it's The Fields, a psychological thriller about adolescence from 6 Degree of Hell scribe Harrison Smith. Harrison talked this flick up during last week's feature interview with him, and now it's Jason and Shawn's turn to weigh in with the executioner's axe. Does this true story stack up in their biased minds? You'll have to listen if you want to find out.

Cloris Leachman and Tara Reid are still alive, by the way.

And you gotta hear the next installment in The Month from Hell, where we feature interviews with the cast and crew of the upcoming horror flick 6 Degrees of Hell. It all culminates in our Halloween Spooktacular and an exclusive interview with star Corey Feldman. Tonight: we talk with director Joe Raffa!

So grab your poison of choice and tune in at 10 p.m. PST at 92.5FM CFBX Kamloops and online at www.thex.ca. You can follow along to the mad tweets of Mike S on Twitter! What else do you have to do at 10 p.m. on Thursday night?

Top 5 quotes from the Rambo franchise

It's Rambo Day, which means it's a day we celebrate all things Rambo. And no, we didn't make that up. It's a real thing, and part of the lead in to Rambo: Last Blood coming out on Friday. We were going to celebrate by doing a Top 5 favourite Rambo kills, but the fine folks at Arrow in the Head already did something like that, so I figured why not share our favourite Rambo quotes. I like quotes. Quotes are good. Anyway, here we go with our Top 5, in no particular order: 5) "They drew first blood." - John Rambo, First Blood (1982) Because it's always cool when the hero references the title of the movie in a quote. 4) "Live for nothing, or die for something. Your call." - John Rambo, Rambo (2008) Because it's 100-per-cent truth, and is the exclamation mark on a great monologue by Stallone. 3) "I could have killed 'em all. I could kill you. In town, you're the law. Out here, it's me. Don't push it, or I'l...
