I went into this one expecting a really bad movie. While I was not entirely wrong, I did find myself getting sucked into it more than I expected, and Dennis Rodman was actually fun to watch. Listen while I try to figure out what's going on, navigate the plot holess, and discover that I don't hate it.
Continuing in the spirit of really great, low budget movies, I bring you Leprechaun 4: In Space! Yes, I was as surprised as you are, although, to be fair to the franchise, this was my first Leprechaun movie. The rest might be as enjoyable. I guess there’s only one way to find out.
I needed a great movie, and this did not disappoint. Within ten minutes I knew it was going to make my top five vampire movies list. It has the perfect blend of campy/gory/jumpy moments, the special effects are great, and the acting is spot on. So listen as I get mad at Matt, get really excited about Anthony Head, and just overall enjoy myself.
This movie was hard for a number of reasons. First of all, what the hell did I watch?! Second of all, it was recommended by a dear friend who passed away a year ago. I had actually recorded this episode right before he died, and I didn't listen to it until I edited it for this post. So that was difficult. I also did not get the Neverending Story vibe I was promised. There were a lot of "what the hell is going on" moments though.
This movie puts the bad in "so bad it's good". It's deliciously low budget, campy, ridiculous, and I loved it. Listen as I point out plot holes, terrible wigs, and just overall enjoy myself.
To give you an idea of how bad this movie is, I watched it in the middle of October in 2023. That's how much I dreaded listening to the recording. It is on par with The Room or Bloodrayne for being a terrible movie, and I think the 19% on Rotten Tomatoes is actually very generous.
I will never watch this again, and if you want to be spared, just listen to this episode. Trust me.
Hey, once a month is better than nothing, right? I cannot express how much I love this movie. If you haven't seen it, then you definitely need to fix that. It's the perfect blend of humor, gore, ick, and lovable and hatable characters. Listen while I get heavily invested and yell at the screen-- a lot.
Welcome back! Again. I had a rough time mentally the last few months, and I did not handle it well, so here we are, back logged once more. I did decide to stop pressuring myself though. It would be nice to stick to a schedule, but if I can't, then I can't.
I enjoyed this version of Mortal Kombat. To be honest, I also really enjoyed the one that came out in the 90's. The first one. The second one should be buried, which means, of course, it's going to be an episode as soon as I can trick someone into watching it with me.
This epitomizes "so bad it's good". You have to watch this if you love over the top ridiculousness that doesn't even try to come off as realistic. Listen as I harp on the complete lack of continuity and just really enjoy myself.
Yes, I know, I forgot to schedule the episode. Sorry! I'm trying this new thing called a "calendar" and to help me get better. Listen as I enjoy this B movie set in Florida and get into the campiness, craziness, and yell at the screen.
