'Tis the season for giving and we at Laser Graves are gifting you with a whole month of holiday themed episodes. We kick it off with a little Christmas miracle from 1989 called Elves.

Put your snow boots on because we're going knee deep into this cinematic masterpiece.

This week we celebrate OUR 50th EPISODE! We're bringing you a too-bizarre-to-be-true event about a young woman from Wyoming who won a national contest on MTV that would change her life forever and leave a tiny community in cowboy country with their heads spinning. This is the story of when Prince and the Revolution, at the height of their fame, traveled to a small town out West for the world premiere of Prince's 1986 directorial debut Under the Cherry Moon. Hold onto your saddles everyone because we are going for a ride.

This week we go "balls out" and backflip into the 1986 cult classic Rad! There's a lot of bouncing, kicking and twirling on bikes. There's almost as much 80s saxophone jams and a fair amount of dancing, mostly dancing while riding bikes. So put your helmet on and pop a wheelie into this weeks episode...it's RAD!

This week we go on an intergalactic 80s adventure with Traci Lords, a middle aged man in a blonde wig and a space vampire with rabies. When it's from the minds of Jim Wynorski and Roger Corman you know it's going to be a wild ride.

Join us as we talk about the devil worshiping metal god Sammi Curr, the misunderstood high school headbanger Ragman and rocking fun cameos by Gene Simmons and Ozzy Osbourne.

This week things are getting hairy with a classic (?) ABC family movie special. Imagine you had the power to turn into a werewolf, but only for two minutes at a time. We follow Walt and his sassy sidekick Cindy as they navigate the complexities of his 120 second werewolf transformations, crime solving and wicked lycanthropic gymnastics. *As a bonus, we have our top werewolf movie recommendations for the spooky holiday season!
