We’re starting off the year right with a film starring podcast favorite, Tim Thomerson! It’s another 80s sci-fi flick, go figure. This time he stars with the amazing Helen Hunt, though! Trancers It has zombies (sort of), time travel, scooter chases, and having sex with your ancestors!! Yes, it’s everything you want out of a … Continue reading Treatment 59 – Trancers →

It’s the end of 2011, and that means it’s time for every show known to man to start pumping our “best of” and “year end” top ten lists! Of course, here at Schlock Treatment we laugh (HA!) at those mainstream fools! We also desperately try to follow their lead, and will pander at a moment’s … Continue reading Treatment 58 – The 2nd Annual Schlockies →

It’s Christmas time, and that means we’ve chosen a Christmas film!! And what could be a more Christmas-centric film than a movie about a renegade cop trying to protect a young fashion model from an evil axe cult!!

We thought that it would be fun to return to the world of TV schlock, this week. What we were thinking I have NO idea! Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Yep, it doesn’t get much cheesier than this. This is a series that straddles two of the cheesiest decades, and it takes the worst … Continue reading Treatment 56 -Buck Rogers in the 25th Century →

Grab your trench coat! Put on your black eye-makeup!! Dust off your razor blades, and commence cutting!! This week’s episode is going back to the 90s, and boy is it ever depressing! The Crow Yep, it’s that bastion of 90s pretension, starring Brandon Lee (son of Bruce Lee). In this show, we touch on the … Continue reading Treatment 55 -The Crow →

Oof! I think we just got the five-finger death-punch to the solar plexus!! Every now and then a movie will totally blindside you. You go in thinking it’ll be a fun actioner, with tons of cool kung-fu. Instead, you get a morally bankrupt experiment in exploitation! And not in a good way! The Game of … Continue reading Treatment 54 -The Game of Death →

This week is insane! We were lucky enough to convince Jon Cross, from The After Movie Diner podcast/website to join us this week. That means insightful discussion, keen analysis, and a wealth of cinema knowledge! Unfortunately, we talked him into joining us for a movie that doesn’t deserve any of this. But, somehow he still … Continue reading Treatment 53 -The Shadow →

Well, here it is…the showdown of showdowns between two giants of Queen soundtracks! Yes, last week we discussed the great Flash Gordon, and decided that it was good. But, then we remembered The Highlander! Highlander This is a classic bit of 80s action/fantasy cinema, known by many. As you’ll hear, a listener aptly describes it … Continue reading Treatment 52 -Highlander →

And so it begins…we enter the realm of films that are basically vehicles for the band Queen. And what a vehicle it is…cherry red, tricked out, a classic and an oddity all in one. Flash Gordon We decided to cover this mostly because Doug is a HUGE fan of it. Naturally, we agree that it’s … Continue reading Treatment 51 -Flash Gordon →

Despite the vast, dark powers of Netflix attempting to stop us, we finally are covering our first animated feature! Fire and Ice From the somewhat skeevy mind of Ralph Bakshi, comes this week’s film. A sweeping tale of savagery, super science, and sorcery! But one man bursts his bonds to fight for justice! With his … Continue reading Treatment 50 -Fire and Ice →
