Drop Dead Fred – OMRM – ep 36 – 1991 – plus Jordan Peele’s Us


Listen Later

Imagine that you get a substandard haircut, and your imaginary friend says, "Got a stupid haircut! Ooh, look at my horrible stupid haircut! Looks just like her mother! Another little mega-bitch!"
Or what about when you wear a cute purple dress, but your imaginary friend says, "It looks like a big BRUISE."
If any of this sounds familiar, then you're probably Phoebe Cates in 1991's "Drop Dead Fred," a so-called kids movie that drops the s-word in the first 30 seconds and has multiple scenes of a crazy man looking up women's skirts.
If you watched "Drop Dead Fred" as a kid, maybe you shouldn't have been allowed to watch it. Or maybe you watched it behind your parent's back and thought you were a badass 11-year-old. Or you saw it as an adult and have no (expletive deleted) clue what's happening.
Tyler and Angela discuss it all on Old Millennials Remember Movies, plus we dive into a mostly spoiler-free discussion of Jordan Peele's latest sensation, "Us."
Discussion of "Drop Dead Fred" begins around the 27-minute mark.
