Customer Reviews
love this
I've been listening to this podcast for a about a month or two. Finally I decide to review. This podcast is funny, the casters have a good friendly chemistry going, and it's just really fun to listen to.
I suggest thispodcast for anyone who likes humor or likes hearing bad movies being made fun of.
Great podcast!
Well they said my review wasn't good enough, so here goes try number two. Schlock Treatment is to podcasting, what gold is to precious metals. If you've been hurt by podcasts, they will teach you to love again. Their voices boom out like a Greek God's thunder, they are truly giants among men. Basically if you don't like this podcast, you're a terrorist who hates freedom!
Tell a friend!
Heres how I found this show: I had just watched the movie "Dollman" which I saw on a list of movies "so bad, they are good". I was blown away, that movie is insane. Anyways, I am a fan of shows like "How did this get made?" and "the Flop House" and thought to myself "some jerk has to have busted on this sh*tty movie". and typed Dollman into Itunes. Little did I know I would stumble upon one of my new favorite podcasts...
I have to admit I wasn't expecting much, everyone has a podcast these days, but this one is top notch. The sound quality is a little iffy, but these guys are funny. If you like schlocky movies and HDTGM or The flop house, you are going to love this podcast!
Check out the episodes, and download one with a movie you are familiar with. You will be hooked, and want to check out the rest of the movies/podcasts! 5 stars all the way!
