99 Cent Rental

Amid the 2023 summer frenzy of Barbie-fever we discovered a movie made by the Ken doll's namesake, Ken Handler. It's a vanity project that seeks to exploit two of the mid-80's most exploitable trends: the raunchy sex comedy and the breakdance movie and commits to neither of these things. Instead, it serves as light-hearted comedic confession of Handler's classist kink for exploiting smooth, poor, and young men desperate enough to do *anything* to rise above their station in life. Join us, won't you?

In the inaugural episode of 99 Cent Rental, brothers Bryan and Dave take a deep dive into the world of Italian exploitation movies with what is ostensibly the perfect specimen of spaghetti apocalypse movies, 1990: The Bronx Warriors. As well as being one of the better examples of the genre, it's also the debut of one of Italy's most peculiar (and tragic) stars, Mark Gregory, a young man of exceptional physique who couldn't possibly be less interested in being in movies.

Bryan and Dave of the Bring Me The Axe! horror podcast are pleased to announce their new show, 99 Cent Rental, a podcast dedicated to the trashy, cheesy weirdness that choke video store shelves. If you like movies with hunky action star lookalikes, dubious martial arts or breakdancing you're in the right place!
