Revenge of the 90s: A Movie Podcast

You may have heard that we're having a pretty important presidential election, so we're diving back into political comedies with 1999's 'Dick,' starring Kirsten Dunst, Michelle Williams, Dan Hedaya, and a whole bunch of great comedic actors - including Will Ferrell as Bob Woodward. As you agonizingly wait for election results to roll in, check out the episode and be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

Despite having one of the STUPIDEST titles in movie history, 'Halloween H20: 20 Years Later' is actually a pretty good entry for a series that really lost its way in the '90s. Jamie Lee Curtis comes back as Laurie Strode, this time armed with Josh Hartnett as her son, and proceeds to really kick Michael Myers' ass. Definitely worth the watch! Join Steve, Fabs, and two-time guest Jillian Jacobs as they slash their way through this one, and be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

Known as 'Dead Alive' in the United States but 'Braindead' everywhere else, this 1992 cult favorite has Peter Jackson doing some truly, truly insane stuff. At one point holding the record for most fake blood used in a film, this has the potential to gross out those with even the most hardened stomachs. This is a collaboration episode with our other podcast, Uncanny Cinema - go check it out! 

From Dusk Till Dawn' isn't often talked about as a true Quentin Tarantino movie, but it obviously totally is, and it RULES. Blending two completely different genres together and painting an incredibly vivid and ridiculous world within it, this is just a kickass movie that gets better with age. Join us and special guest Walt Braley as we talk about this classic, and be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

Hocus Pocus' is one of those movies where other generations might not understand the hype, but for a lot of '90s kids, this might be THE Halloween movie to watch every year. And we're happy to report this 1993 Disney classic still holds up. So let's talk about it with special guest Evan Romansky, creator of 'Ratched'!

Tim Burton hasn't made a lot of true horror in his career, but 1999's 'Sleepy Hollow' certainly is certainly that, and it's a good one. Starring Johnny Depp (of course) and Christina Ricci, this is one of the best atmospheric gothic horror movies you'll ever see. And you get to enjoy Ray Park do his thing as the body of the Headless Horseman! Our guest today is actor, screenwriter, and composer Sean Keller - let's get spooky!

If you love slasher movies, the mid-to-late '90s was truly your golden era. And smack dab in the middle of it all is 1998's 'Urban Legend,' which may not get as much love as its slasher brethren. But we're here to set things right with our guest Jillian Jacobs, the co-writer of 'Truth or Dare' and 'Fantasy Island.' And when you're done getting your slasher fix, be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

The '90s were huge for stories that involved slugs infiltrating your brain through your ears, and that includes 1998's 'The Faculty,' starring pretty much everybody you've ever heard of. Joining us on today's episode is comedian Luke Null, so let's do this! Be sure to also follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

Everyone knows 'Scream' is the master meta horror film, but 'Wes Craven's New Nightmare' is its true spiritual predecessor. Yet another example of why Freddy Krueger is the best horror villain of all time, this movie takes an old property and injects it with a fresh, fun perspective. And Freddy is scary as hell in this one, more closely designed to Craven's original image of him. Don't go to sleep before you listen to this episode!, and be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod!

Some of you might think 'The Silence of the Lambs' isn't a true horror movie, but TOO BAD, because we do. And we are as excited to talk about this 1991 classic as Buffalo Bill is to finish his skin suit. So let's dig in with special guest Linton Lewis, host of the Uncanny Cinema podcast.
