Summer Blockbuster!?!

As our Month of Horrors Extravaganza comes to an end, we take a look at David Cronenberg’s ooey-gooey remake of THE FLY from 1986, a film so gross that it nearly made our guest lose her lunch. And who can blame her? Bones are broken, limbs are dissolved with acid, and jaws are ripped clean … Continue reading Ep. #26-The Fly-1986 →

Our Month of Horrors Extravaganza continues this week with 1992’s split personality thriller RAISING CAIN, directed by the divisive Brian De Palma. John Lithgow camps it up as the stupidly named Carter Nix and his multiple personalities. But which performance do we love more? The ineffectual husband? The leather jacket-clad, cigarette-smoking bad boy Cain? The … Continue reading Ep. #25-Raising Cain →

Our Month of Horrors Extravaganza continues with a truly terrifying flick, 2006’s THE WICKER MAN, starring Nicolas Cage in a bear costume and a whole lot of angry bees. Women will be punched, bikes will be stolen at gunpoint, and writer/director Neil LaBute will reveal that nothing is scarier than a misogynist with a $30 … Continue reading Ep. #24-The Wicker Man (2006) →

This week, we kick off our October Horror Extravaganza with Rusty Cundieff’s TALES FROM THE HOOD from 1995, a supernatural anthology with a social conscience. What happens when racist cops, child abusers, drug dealers, dirty politicians, and white supremacists mix with zombies, monsters, mad scientists, and killer dolls? As we discover, this ain’t your average … Continue reading Ep. #23-Tales From the Hood →

On this week’s episode, we tackle 2002’s THE COUNTRY BEARS, inspired by the classic Disney attraction. Who knew our first foray into G-rated fare would result in such profound talking points as the ethics of interspecies adoption, drug addiction, gender identification, and music appreciation? Oh, and maybe beastialtiy. Bear-gasms? Definitely. And hey, is that Christopher … Continue reading Ep. #22-The Country Bears →

On this week’s episode, the shack is back and–spoiler alert!–it’s whack! We discuss 1988’s much-maligned comedy sequel CADDYSHACK II, a movie so bad that co-host Luke literally fled the country to avoid it. Sucker. Who would want to miss seeing a talking, wine-swilling gopher puppet? So if you ever thought, “Hey, wouldn’t it be cool … Continue reading Ep. #21-Caddyshack II →

On this week’s episode, we discuss The Lonely Island’s first feature film, 2007’s cult comedy HOT ROD. And by discuss, I mean we endlessly quote lines from it and laugh hysterically. So if that’s what you’re into, cool beans!

On this week’s episode, we head back to the movie theater for 2017’s GOOD TIME, starring Robert Pattinson as a low-level criminal who will do anything to save his incarcerated younger brother. Underage make-out sessions, Sprite bottles of acid, bags of money, and BDSM-inspired amusement park rides all play crucial roles in the most realistic … Continue reading Ep. #19-Good Time →

On this week’s episode, we take an adrenaline shot straight to the heart with 2006’s bonkers action extravaganza CRANK, starring the one-and-only Jason Statham. We’ve got 90 minutes to determine if it’s pure genius or an offensive headache, and these Red Bulls and nasal sprays will only last for so long. Buckle up and enjoy!

On this week’s episode, things get steamy with 1992’s “erotic” thriller WHISPERS IN THE DARK, a film whose idea of sexy is having respected actors like Alan Alda spout such choice dialogue as, “You probably had a spontaneous emission right in your blue jeans.” And it only gets grosser from there.

On this week’s episode, we tackle 2003’s infamous American Idol musical romance FROM JUSTIN TO KELLY, A.K.A. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION: THE MOVIE. Kelly Clarkson and Justin Guarini prove to be about as sexy as a case of chlamydia on spring break, while the musical numbers make one yearn for the complexity of a junior high school … Continue reading Ep. #16-From Justin To Kelly →

On this week’s episode, we head all the way back to 1986 and take a look at the long-forgotten teen thriller BULLIES, in which a backwoods hick family terrorizes some wussy big city folk. Somehow dirtbikes, bear traps, and borderline-magical Native Americans make their way into the proceedings, but really, everything you need to know … Continue reading Ep. #15-Bullies →

On this week’s episode, we grind (well, not sexually) on 2005’s LORDS OF DOGTOWN, a skateboarding flick for the Pac Sun crowd that certainly lives up to the “dog” in its title. Brain tumors, Emile Hirsch as a Latino gangster, Heath Ledger with big fake teeth, uncomfortable brother/sister relationships, and Sofia Vergara’s breasts surprisingly all … Continue reading Ep #14-Lords of Dogtown →

It was inevitable. On this week’s episode, we discuss 1997’s infamous comic book adaptation STEEL, starring beloved character actor Shaquille O’Neal and a woman in a laser beam-shooting, rocket-fueled wheelchair. Yeah, we couldn’t make this stuff up even if we wanted. Cue the free throw jokes!

On this week’s episode, we examine 2015’s Sundance award-winning ME AND EARL AND THE DYING GIRL, an indie dramedy that is unbelievably even more twee than its title. Can genuine emotion escape the self-satisfied dialogue and quirky characterization? And can someone please turn down the damn Lou Reed?!

On this week’s episode, we discuss Jonathan Mostow’s 1997 thriller BREAKDOWN, in which Kurt Russell’s hair tracks down the sinister backwoods truckers who have kidnapped his wife. Yeah, it’s as badass as it sound. All hail The Russell!

As the latest Spider-Man swings its way into theaters, this week we take a look at a very different kind of hero introduced to audiences in the summer of 2001–the one and only POOTIE TANG, courtesy of Louis C.K., of all people. Armed with gibberish, a magical belt, and the world’s worst film editor, he’s … Continue reading Ep. #10-Pootie Tang →

On this week’s episode we head back to the movies for 2017’s THE BOOK OF HENRY, and how could we resist? It’s a heartwarming family dramedy featuring such staples of the genre as child sexual abuse, negligent parents, terminal illness, interpretive dance, and cold-blooded murder. Yeah, this one’s crazy. So grab a waffle and take … Continue reading Ep. #9-The Book of Henry →

On this week’s episode we head to the movie theater and check out a film that critics love and audiences seem to despise, 2017’s “horror” flick IT COMES AT NIGHT. So what exactly is ‘it’? Why is ‘it’ coming? And, hey, why is the screen suddenly so tiny? We attempt to get to the bottom … Continue reading Ep. #8-It Comes At Night →

On this week’s episode we delve into 2005’s HIGH TENSION, an extreme horror flick from France directed by Alexandre Aja that was hacked to death in the editing room by Lionsgate. Hell, they even added an English dub for all you stupid Americans out there! And yet something tells us the exploding heads and repugnant homophobia would have crossed … Continue reading Ep. #7-High Tension →
