Is Jeepers Creepers still an effective scare-fest, or has time dimmed its headlights?

Nathan and Ryan sink their teeth into The Last Vampire on Earth, a no-budget oddity that feels like a bootleg Twilight mixed with soap opera melodrama. Marketed as a brooding vampire romance, this ultra-cheap production delivers awkward performances, questionable editing, and an atmosphere that makes it one of the strangest attempts at a vampire movie ever made. Is it so-bad-it’s-good fun, or just a painful watch? The hosts break down all the bloody (and baffling) details.

Nathan and Ryan take on one of the most infamous box office bombs of the early 90s: Hudson Hawk. Bruce Willis stars as a wisecracking cat burglar who times his heists to classic songs while getting wrapped up in a conspiracy involving Leonardo da Vinci’s secret inventions. With cartoonish villains, tonal whiplash, and a soundtrack of absurdity, this oddball action-comedy has become a cult favorite for some and a headache for others. The hosts break down whether Hudson Hawk is an underrated gem or an overindulgent disaster.

Nathan and Ryan dive into Albert Pyun’s Brain Smasher… A Love Story, the offbeat action-comedy where Andrew Dice Clay plays a tough bouncer who finds himself protecting a supermodel (Teri Hatcher) from a gang of “not ninjas” in Portland. The hosts break down the film’s strange blend of romance, martial arts parody, and Pyun’s signature low-budget flair, while asking the big question: is this secretly a charming cult gem or just a bizarre 90s curiosity?

Nathan and Ryan take a trip back to 1950 with I Was a Shoplifter, a cautionary crime drama that mixes noir style with moral messaging. Following a young woman caught stealing who gets pulled into a slick shoplifting ring, the film balances pulpy thrills with a heavy dose of “crime doesn’t pay” melodrama. The hosts discuss the movie’s place in the era’s crime film cycle, its campy mix of sincerity and exploitation, and how it fits into the tradition of morality tales disguised as B-movies.

Nathan and Ryan dive into Samuel Fuller’s hard-edged noir classic Pickup on South Street (1953). When a pickpocket (Richard Widmark) unknowingly swipes microfilm containing government secrets, he becomes entangled in a dangerous game of espionage, betrayal, and survival on the streets of New York. The hosts unpack the film’s gritty style, its Cold War anxieties, and Fuller’s sharp mix of pulp thrills and political tension.

Nathan and Ryan take on one of the strangest and most ambitious entries in the Godzilla franchise: Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989).

Expect plenty of discussion on inventive kills, psychological torment, and how far is too far when it comes to horror sequels.

Nathan and Ryan step into the squared circle for a wild ride through Bodyslam (1986), the over-the-top comedy that mashes together the worlds of professional wrestling and rock ‘n’ roll. From rowdy matches to outrageous tour antics, this cult oddity features Dirk Benedict, “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, and a soundtrack that’s just as cheesy as the plot. The hosts break down the film’s chaotic charm, its behind-the-scenes production troubles, and why it’s a bizarre love letter to ’80s entertainment excess.

On this episode of Drive-In Double Feature, Nathan and Ryan crack open the locked door to the twisted world of Flowers in the Attic (1987), the dark and melodramatic adaptation of V.C. Andrews’ infamous novel. They dig into the film’s gothic atmosphere, over-the-top performances, and the uneasy balance between shocking melodrama and Lifetime-style family drama. Expect plenty of discussion on why this story has remained such a bizarre pop culture touchstone, even with its awkward changes from the book.
