Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed "good," "bad," or "what!?" within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor's filmography, and more!

This week, in honor of "Evil Dead Rise" (currently in theaters and available for rent or purchase on PVOD), Chris and Ryan dive into three cabin-bound creature features inspired by Sam Raimi's original masterwork. We start with 1988's "Pumpkinhead" from the late VFX maestro Stan Winston. While the story wobbles a bit in the back half, it has an impenetrable atmosphere, genuine sorrow, beautiful cinematography, a stellar creature, and a great lead turn from Lance Henriksen. Then, we move into a 2017 piece of DTV junk called "Creature Cabin" aka "Tarnation." It's no fun knocking on a no-budget film, but we argue that in the realm of "Evil Dead" knock-offs that it misses the mark entirely. Finally, we discuss the adorable 1995 Troma flick "Frostbiter: Wrath of the Windigo" which, like previous GBW "What?" film "Winterbeast," was shot over multiple years, has amazing stop-motion creatures, and just got a new Blu-ray release courtesy of Vinegar Syndrome.
