My personal favorite on this shorter list is Tourist Trap, which was way creepier and more intense than I remembered. Of the original 13 films that were shown, only 7 can still be viewed: Tourist Trap, Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama, Sleepaway Camp, Re-Animator, Demons, Hellraiser and Pieces. I wish newcomers to the world of The Last Drive-In were able to watch the marathon in its entirety, but unfortunately, licensing agreements are not eternal. The I Didn’t Even Know This Was Missing From My Life award goes to the original marathon from July of 2018 –After many long Joe Bob-less years, he came back with a vengeance, presenting 13 awesome films in 24 hours. Consider it an homage to Joe Bob’s own Drive-In Academy Award nominations! So, without further delay, here we go. The specials have also continued along the way, so we are taking a look at the entirety of the Joe Bob Briggs library on Shudder for the purposes of this piece.Īnd just because it’s fun, I have chosen to present these choices as awards.
Shudder knew a good thing when they saw it, and Joe Bob returned with multiple holiday specials before the series was finally born in 2019. The marathon was so popular, it caused Shudder’s servers to crash. The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs began as a “one-time” marathon, intended to be the swan song for Briggs, who was beloved from his time hosting Joe Bob’s Drive-In Theater and MonsterVision. But there have been times they have gone above and beyond for their fans. Shudder series The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs is currently in its third season, and Joe Bob and Darcy never fail to entertain.
