In this episode of The Video & Vinyl Club, we howl back to 1985 with a deep dive into the cult classic Teen Wolf, starring the unstoppable Michael J. Fox. Fresh off the success of Back to the Future, Fox took on the role of Scott Howard—an awkward teen who discovers he's a werewolf... and suddenly becomes the most popular guy in school.

We unpack the film’s unique blend of horror, humor, and high school angst, explore the behind-the-scenes production chaos, weird casting facts, and why Fox was not a fan of the film. Plus, we talk about the synth-heavy soundtrack, 80s teen movie tropes, and how Teen Wolf clawed its way into pop culture history.

🛼 Break out the basketball shorts and get ready to boogie on top of a van—this one's a wild ride.

This week on The Video and Vinyl Club, we're diving into the deliriously campy world of John Waters' 1990 cult classic Cry-Baby. Long before Johnny Depp donned blades in Edward Scissorhands, he was the pouty, tear-dropping bad boy of Baltimore in this rockabilly fever dream that came out just nine months before Tim Burton's iconic film.

We talk about the film’s satirical take on teen rebellion, its razor-sharp parody of 1950s melodrama, and how Waters' vision flipped mainstream Hollywood on its head. Oh, and did we mention Iggy Pop plays Cry-Baby’s bath-loving hillbilly grandpa? Because of course he does.

Whether you’re a longtime devotee of Waters’ filth and flair or just discovering this Technicolor teen nightmare, join us for a ride full of leather jackets, motorcycle rumbles, and high-voltage musical numbers.

Press play, shed a single tear, and let’s get weird.
