Matthew and Dean finally wrap on the TNG and TOS film coverage with Star Trek: Insurrection. There is a lot of goofy comedy in this flick, and there are some issues with the plot, once again - but there is some interesting stuff going on here if you dig a little deeper. F. Murray Abraham gets to flex his acting prowess with some good bad guy stuff.

Introducing: The Lost Drive-In    Podcast Description:The ‘Lost Drive-In’ is the latest podcast from LSG Media and unlike anything you’ve heard in movie podcasting. Science fiction. Horror. Action schlock. Cult and B-movies. Every week Matthew and Dean watch a genre film and discuss it in a raw, honest, and often hilarious way. Their uncensored conversational style is less stuffy criticism, and more joking with your profane pals. You will howl with laughter and be occasionally shocked by a ridiculous statement or maybe even an unexpected insight. New episodes drop Mondays.
