"Hyper-specific, pointedly particular, rarified to the point of being incomprehensible"...these words from co-host Chris define our dear friend and two-time guest Paul Kaup's love of a very narrow band of films. For years, co-host Jason has tried to get Paul to explain exactly what they are and aren't. They're not movies you would go to the movies to see, they're not movies you'd even rent back in the Blockbuster days.  They're movies that don't require much mental effort at the end of a long day.  But they're also not unintentionally funny or so bad they're good.  They're so very nearly "good" yet still a little short of the goal.  Our guest Paul Kaup has chosen 'Time Trap' as representative of this genre, and we have a lot of fun with this science-fiction thriller time-travel flick.
