spooky tuesday is a (now not so new!) podcast where we’re breaking down all of our favorite slashers, thrillers, monster movies and black comedies on the new scariest day of the week.
in keeping with its fellow '70s and '80s horror movies, the return of the living dead (1985) delivers a classic tale about an official governmental goof — which makes for some interesting timing considering that it's set right around the fourth of july. this week on spooky tuesday, we decided to celebrate the holiday and the anniversary of the film's (totally true, just peep that title card) events in one fell swoop. on our latest episode, we're keeping the party time (zombie version) going as we enjoy this flick's killer soundtrack, discuss potential throuples, and get into a serious debate about who exactly is the dumbest of the dumb bitches.
give spooky tuesday a listen on apple podcasts, spotify, iheart radio, or stitcher

The Return of the Living Dead (1985)
"I thought you said if we destroyed the brain, it'd die?"
"It worked in the movie!"
"Well, it ain't working now, Frank."
"You mean the movie lied?"

On July 3rd, 1984, there is an accident with a military drum at the Uneeda medical supply warehouse that creates a zombie. The body is cremated, but instead of solving the problem, it increases it exponentially. The body releases a gas that escapes into the atmosphere and causes a toxic rain, which begins to create brain eating zombie corpses. (Return of the Living Dead, flm)

'The Return of the Living Dead' Movie and 4K/Blu-ray Review
‘The Return of the Living Dead’ Movie and 4K/Blu-ray Review
The following review was written by Ultimate Rabbit Correspondent, Tony Farinella. “The Return of The Living Dead” was released the same year I was born, 1985.  Even thirty-seven years later, it is clear to see the impact the film had on horror movies, specifically zombie movies.  It was a film which was truly ahead of its time. I remember watching and enjoying the Scream Factory Blu-ray when it…

The FBI executed a search warrant on former-President Trump’s home in Florida on Monday, the ex-President said, lashing out at law enforcement for what he called “political persecution.”
“My beautiful home Mar A Lago in Palm Beach, Florida is currently under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” Trump said in a statement that included a link for donations to his political action committee.
“After working and cooperating with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced raid at my home was not necessary or appropriate.”
The remarkable execution of a search warrant at a former president’s home comes as the Justice Department has accelerated its investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and the actions Trump took to overturn the 2020 election results to remain in power.
It was not immediately clear what was examined during the search, nor what the search warrant specified, but Trump said the law enforcement officials “even broke into my safe.”
The Department of Justice (DOJ) declined to comment.
The New York Times reported that the search appeared to be focused on records that Trump brought with him to the Mar-a-Lago estate after leaving the White House.
Last year, the National Archives reportedly asked the Justice Department to investigate after authorities recovered 15 boxes of materials from Trump’s Florida home that should have been left with government records keepers. Among the retrieved materials were some that were classified.
The search would appear to be the first of its kind against a former president, but it remains unclear whether it’s a prelude to criminal charges, another scenario without precedent in U.S. history.
In order to have secured a search warrant, federal law enforcement would have had to show probable cause supporting their suspicion of criminal activity and get authorization from a federal magistrate judge.
In recent weeks, DOJ has been focusing on Trump’s efforts to remain in power through a false elector scheme, transmitting what campaign officials referred to as “fake” election certificates in order to reverse the 2020 election in key states won by President Biden. The department has reportedly convened a federal grand jury to investigate the scheme, in addition to the grand jury investigation into the Jan. 6 attack.
It also previously executed search warrants on two lawyers who worked with the former-President.
DOJ seized the phone of John Eastman, who crafted memos for the campaign detailing the false elector strategy as well as a plan for then-Vice President Mike Pence to buck his ceremonial duty to certify the election results. And it also searched the home of Jeffrey Clark, an assistant attorney general Trump weighed installing as attorney general so he could forward an investigation into his baseless claims of election fraud.
But there are signs the department may have expanded its probe.
Last week, Trump’s former White House counsel, Pat Cipollone, was reportedly called to testify before a federal grand jury, as was his deputy Patrick Philbin.
The two men may be able to offer a more wide-ranging look at Trump’s actions leading up to Jan. 6. Cipollone pushed back against another plan by Trump campaign attorneys to seize voting machines. He also had concerns about the legality of Trump’s plans to march to the Capitol on Jan. 6, according to testimony from White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson before the House Select Committee investigating the attack.
Kenneth Klukowski, a former deputy to Clark, is also reportedly cooperating with the DOJ investigation.
In his lengthy statement, Trump railed against the search, comparing it to Watergate.
“Here, in reverse, Democrats broke into the home of the 45th President of the United States,” he wrote.
The White House said late Monday they “did not have notice of the reported action.”
Attorney General Merrick Garland in recent weeks appeared to be more responsive to criticism that DOJ’s probe was lagging that of those by House investigators but has consistently denied the presence of any political motivations within the Jan. 6 investigation.
“We pursue justice without fear or favor,” Garland said in an interview with NBC News late last month. “We intend to hold everyone, anyone who was criminally responsible for the events surrounding Jan. 6 or any attempt to interfere with the lawful transfer of power from one administration to another accountable. That’s what we do.”
“It is inevitable in this kind of investigation that there’ll be speculation about what we are doing, who we are investigating, what our theories are,” he added. “The reason there is this speculation and uncertainty is that it’s a fundamental tenet of what we do as prosecutors and investigators is to do it outside of the public eye.”

Original REO Speedwagon Bassist Gregg Philbin Dies at 75
Founding REO Speedwagon bassist Gregg Philbin has died, his wife, Linda, said.
Philbin died Oct. 24 of undisclosed causes. He was 75.
The bassist played with the band though six studio LPs and its first in-concert release, 1977’s Live: You Get What You Play For.
After that, Speedwagon turned to a poppier sound and “I was not interested,” Philbin told the Pensacola (Fla.) News Journal in 2018.
Kevin Cronin eulogized Philbin by comparing him to John Entwistle, in that “they both played the bass as more of a lead instrument.”
“No one should underestimate the Philbin factor in the evolution of REO Speedwagon,” Cronin said in a statement.
“When Gregg left the band in 1977, he took with him the prog-leaning extended instrumental section aspect of the REO sound.”

The Hooked Generation (1968)
