Meet Cleaver Theatre
About this original series
Welcome to Meet Cleaver TheatreDirect from Thrills-ville, Ohio, the Cleavers & friends bring you deliciously rotten TV Dinner entertainment! From Sci-fi to Horror...Beatnik to Kung-fu...Modern Masterpieces to Cult Classics...The Swank to the Stank, you're sure to find a flavor you'll come to savor...no matter how bad your taste is! I'd best describe our show as the by-product of a frightening (yet strangely erotic) copulation between Barbara Billingsley and Tim Burton... while Donna Reed watches." It's a dash of rockabilly, a smatter of the sublime and heaping scoop of hep all folded into some of your favorite b-movies from the 40s-90s. So don't be a square! Pull up a bean bag, mix up an eyeball martini and curl up with some of those familiar drive-in favorites you love to loathe! If you are a band or an indie artist that would like to showcase your way-gone works on our humble program, stop by our website, check out our FAQ, promo kit and friends section (you'll find a list of others who participate in this three ring circus) and drop us a line.

Well hello Krypt Kats! We're back with the 5th and final installment of our 5 part send off from Youtube. I'm all misty-eyed...Tonight's flick is Butch's favorite rock opera of the 70s and what I believe a true b-flick midnight movie should be! It's the Brain DePalma lightning-in-a-bottle classic: "The Phantom of the Paradise"! It's got all the elements for pure midnight enjoyment: cult icons, great music, gorgeous ladies and a super cool story of selling your soul for rock n' roll! We've also...

MCT - Top 5 - #3 Hot Pants and Hair Glitter
Well hello Krypt Kats! We're back with the 3rd part of our 5 part send off from Youtube. But before we begin, I received some devilish advice from the "head" of the Cleaver household, Joan. She suggested that we go back through time (aka youtube archives) and re-name all our episodes something flip instead of leaving them actual movie titles. This would make it more difficult for lazy producers, cheap lawyers and the terminally unemployed from calling up a film's title and flagging it. They wo...

MCT - Top 5 - Where Ya Been Butch?
Tonight marks the return of Meet Cleaver Theatre: Sub Atomic and while it's better explained in the actual video, we're on the edge of being banned from Youtube because of a remarkable series of content flags and claims against us that we're violating copyright (by FREELY promoting bands and movies). The reason we've been gone so long is the incessant amount of paperwork we've been filling out to dispute the claims...and frankly it hasn't been a whole lotta fun. See vid for full disclosure. So...

MCT - Episode 135 - Sowing the Seeds of Evil
Greetings Krypt Kats! Butch R. Cleaver here and tonight we're reminiscing about the halcyon days of the VHS rental stores...the mom & pops places with the weirdest of the weird selection of horror flicks. Perhaps you ran across the colorful clam-shell box for tonight's feature and found yourself tempted by it's oddness... well if you passed it up, you dodged a bullet my good friends. Tonight's turgid little bit of fertilizer is the 1975 vision: "The Gardener" aka "Seeds of Evil". Some you boys...

Greetings Krypt Kats! Butch R. Cleaver here and tonight we're creating a bizarre love triangle that would baffle even that cute chick in New Order. What do you get when you throw together a socially retarded police scientist, a washed up crime boss and a sexy fembot? You get the 80s scifi comedy classic "I Love Maria"! It's time to fight crime, in mandarin, but don't fret, just watch the cute chicks and flashy effects and you'll get the gist of it. And speaking of cute robots we're looking at ...
