James Kline and J.H. Alison wrap up Killer Objects in 1980s Horror Movies: Part 2 with the low-budget Texas dark comedy Nail Gun Massacre. 🤠🔫

The boys kick things off with their quick thoughts on the film—what hit, what missed, and what made this bizarre flick a cult curiosity. Then, it’s time for the Weekly History Segment! For January 1987, we discuss the WWF debut of the iconic tag team Demolition and dive into the world of metal with Sacrilege’s album Within the Prophecy. 🎸🤼‍♂️

Next, we delve into the backstory of Nail Gun Massacre: writer/director Terry Lofton’s limited but fascinating filmography, his grandmother's surprising role in the movie, and the Texas locations where it was shot. We also uncover wild production stories, including a divorce caused by the film and theories on how they convinced so many women to strip down for this low-budget slasher.

Finally, the full review: paintball stormtrooper killers, muffled audio, absurdly random murders, a Doc who relies on computers for everything, a hilariously real Texas sheriff, horny teens in the woods, and of course, nail-gun carnage galore.
