In this episode we walk like an Egyptian while taking a look at the smash hit 1987 comedy, Mannequin. We discuss ideas for a future sequel, and spend way too much time worrying about the logic of it all.

Music

Intro - In My Wildest Dreams by Belinda Carlisle

Outro - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now by Starship 

In this episode we suck the life out of Tobe Hooper's Lifeforce from 1985. We marvel at the days when Sir Patrick Stewart wasn't famous, and question how subduing an alien vampire with a biscuit was ever going to work.

Music

Intro - Main Titlte, The Lifeforce Theme by Henry Mancini

Outro - Better Back Then by Adam Warner

In this episode we ride the dark streets with Universal's short lived TV show, Street Hawk from 1985. We discuss how somebody can survive being on a bike at 300mph (it isn't pretty), and we finally come to a disagreement about something we've watched.

In this episode we get locked up with Sylvestor Stallone and Kurt Russell in Tango & Cash from 1989. We discuss how you can build an evil villain's lair, and we battle with a poor Skype connection and a rogue hairdryer.

In this episode we gulp down a stiff drink and take a hard, long look at Carry on Behind from 1975. The Carry On series spanned over 20 years and 30 films and is a cultural instution in the UK. But how does one of the later entries in the series fare under the Retrospection magnifying glass? We also finish with a song written and performed by one of our listeners. Enjoy!
