The Bad Movies Rule! crew—James, Chuck, Dave, and Joe—rips through Jean-Claude Van Damme’s 1990 prison thriller Death Warrant scene by scene. Van Damme stars as undercover cop Burke sent into a chaotic lockup to investigate mysterious inmate deaths tied to a secret organ-harvesting ring run by guards and the terrifying Sandman. The episode is packed with roasts of the shaky fight choreography (including the infamous wrench beatdown and fire deaths), massive plot holes, awkward romance with Amanda, questionable prison “realism,” and Van Damme’s signature shirtless flexing. Tangents explode on banana bread, “I’ll be back” thugs, inmate brothels, peanut-shell etiquette, and whether Burke actually saves anyone. They hand out awards, read patron takes, and debate if this is a bad movie straight up or something more ridiculous.

Mueller hosts, and is joined by Curt, Joe & Farrell, as they recap the movie about a killer Sasquatch and a native hunter with phantom arrows? I'm not really sure, I watched it in five times speed, but these guys will give you the low down.

The Bad Movies Rule! crew is back for a wild mailbag with zero physical letters (thanks Ryan), a room full of beaver nugget spray, and Kurt officially crowned everyone’s favorite host. Listeners weigh in on the mailbag song lyrics (“I was stoned by a Christmas tree” gets multiple theories), Bob accidentally saves a dog’s life with his terrible opinions, a son drives to the wrong Burlington, Ricky from Oklahoma confesses to paying a Sloth-lookalike kid to scream “BEES!” at old ladies, and Kyle shares his epic Bill Goldberg weigh-in photo story. Plus: a Japanese voicemail nobody can understand, an attempted mailbag theme song that ends with “toys in my ass,” an F Mary Kill with three Jennifers, airport celebrity sightings, and RJ begging the guys to stop chewing into the mics. Pure chaos, zero filter, and exactly why we do mailbags.

This episode we follow grieving dad Ed Harley (Lance Henriksen) as he digs up an ancient revenge demon to punish the dirt-biking idiots who accidentally killed his young son — complete with killer practical effects, swamp-witch rituals, and atmospheric lightning-streaked kills. What begins as a horror breakdown quickly derails into legendary tangents about cornfield nightmares, mono-cropping ethics, whether Joel belongs in jail for vehicular kid manslaughter, and exactly how Wisconsin handles edibles (spoiler: rectally, off the backs of cows). They hand out awards, read patron reviews, and ultimately debate if this atmospheric creature feature is a hidden gem or just a gloriously “bad movie that rules.” One of the funniest, most unhinged episodes yet.

Hosts: James Hauser, Bob Hauser, Grace Wire, Ryan Mattila

In this chaotic mailbag episode, the BMR crew dives into listener voicemails, emails, and physical mail—including a Bucky's care package full of beaver nuggets, jerky, and room freshener from Sparky, plus a hilarious "HR audit" letter from Mandy Colin. They tackle movie theories like the real villain in Con Air, Star Wars Episode III memories, suggestions for Jumanji and Pure Luck, and celebrity encounter stories involving Motorhead. Amid detours on driving routes, singing "How Do I Live," and beaver nugget scents, the gang shares laughs, defends their awards system, and teases future episodes on franchises like TMNT 3 and Walker, Texas Ranger. International fans from the UK and Norway chime in, proving bad movies unite the world.

Tommy Boy (1995) unleashes Chris Farley as the lovable man-child Tommy Callahan, who teams up with David Spade to save the family brake-pad factory from ruin! This ‘90s comedy classic mixes road-trip chaos, epic fat jokes, and a plot as simple as a sales call. Is this a cult classic or total trash?

In this chaotic mailbag episode, James, Mattila, and Clint dive into listener submissions with zero filter—kicking off with a call for fan-made jingles to replace the absent theme song (submit yours or face the ban list!). Physical mail steals the show: an anonymous Washington sender drops epic posters for Rhinestone and Space Truckers, while Matt Mulholland hooks them up with Tommy Want Wingy beer (perfect for the upcoming Tommy Boy ep), gummy pickles (James dodges, Ryan chows down), and a hilariously personal bidet sprayer for Ryan's "gateway to better butthole days." Emails and voicemails flood in with Twilight trivia resolutions (Dakota Fanning in two scenes only!), wild celebrity tales (Hammer Fall encounters in Sweden, a heartfelt Paul Di'Anno meetup before his passing, a Hulk #2 stuntman story from a listener's dad, and a near-miss with Dolly Parton at a buffet). Send your mail, voicemails, or packages to keep the madness rolling!

Con Air (1997) loads Nicolas Cage onto a hijacked prison plane full of the worst criminals in America—John Malkovich’s psycho Cyrus, Steve Buscemi’s creepy Garland Greene, and a cast of lunatics flying toward freedom! This ‘90s action extravaganza mixes over-the-top stunts, one-liners that soar, and a plot as high-octane as the engines. Is this a cult classic or total trash?
