When Ming the Merciless, Emperor of the Planet Mongo sets his diabolical sights on Earth, there is only one man who can save every one of us - FLASH! After decades as a popular comic strip, and a handful of adaptations as a TV series and film serial, Flash Gordon finally gets a proper big screen debut. We'll briefly go over the history of the franchise and talk about all of the delightful elements - from the villainous performance of Max von Sydow to the soundtrack written and performed by Queen - that went into making this fun-filled space adventure.

Robert Redford's directorial debut didn't reach #1 at the box office, although it garnered six Oscar nominations, of which it won four, including Best Picture and Best Director. The film - an adaptation of the novel by Judith Guest - chronicles the tribulations of a shattered family as they each attempt to cope in the aftermath of a tragedy. Join us as we discuss this subtle, overlooked yet poignant story of loss and healing.

Drop and give us twenty, because we're headed to boot camp with Goldie Hawn in this week's film, Private Benjamin. Hawn's comedic talents shine in her role as the fish out of water who is tricked into joining the Army by an unscrupulous recruiter. Will she learn to adapt to her new environment and overcome, or will she return to her old dream of landing a husband and settling down as a housewife? Listen to find out!

The great Walter Matthau's talents are utterly wasted in this comedy spy thriller that lacks comedy, thrills, and come to think of it doesn't really have much spying in it either. Take a trip around the globe with us as we lead the CIA on a wild goose chase and discuss Hopscotch, a movie that makes us question who is selecting films for The Criterion Collection.

This episode will take us from the horrors of war in Vietnam to the mean streets of New York City, as we follow the story of veteran-turned-vigilante John Eastland in The Exterminator. We'll go over all of the plot contrivances, questionable story decisions and gruesome violence in this tale of one man who goes on a personal quest to rid the streets of crime, with the police and the CIA hot on his trail.

The gang is back together in the sequel to the 1977 classic that put the Pontiac Trans Am and Coors Banquet beer on the map. Were they able to recapture the same magic they made in the first film? Not so much. This one was so rough we had to recruit a new co-host to help us out. Join us in welcoming a new member to the crew as we take a look at Smokey and the Bandit II

We have finally hit the war!

It’s the long anticipated team up that fans have been waiting for!

Brian De Palma has directed some of the most legendary films of the 20th century - including Carrie, Scarface, and The Untouchables. This psychological thriller starring Michael Caine is a direct homage to Alfred Hitchcock…so why is Dressed to Kill even more controversial now than it was upon release? Listen to our discussion to find out!
