Summer Blockbuster!?! episodes

  • Ep. #26-The Fly-1986
    As our Month of Horrors Extravaganza comes to an end, we take a look at David Cronenberg’s ooey-gooey remake of THE FLY from 1986, a film so gross that it nearly made our guest lose her lunch. And who can blame her? Bones are broken, limbs are dissolved with acid, and jaws are ripped clean … Continue reading Ep. #26-The Fly-1986 →

  • Ep. #25-Raising Cain
    Our Month of Horrors Extravaganza continues this week with 1992’s split personality thriller RAISING CAIN, directed by the divisive Brian De Palma. John Lithgow camps it up as the stupidly named Carter Nix and his multiple personalities. But which performance do we love more? The ineffectual husband? The leather jacket-clad, cigarette-smoking bad boy Cain? The … Continue reading Ep. #25-Raising Cain →

  • Ep. #24-The Wicker Man (2006)
    Our Month of Horrors Extravaganza continues with a truly terrifying flick, 2006’s THE WICKER MAN, starring Nicolas Cage in a bear costume and a whole lot of angry bees. Women will be punched, bikes will be stolen at gunpoint, and writer/director Neil LaBute will reveal that nothing is scarier than a misogynist with a $30 … Continue reading Ep. #24-The Wicker Man (2006) →

  • Ep. #23-Tales From the Hood
    This week, we kick off our October Horror Extravaganza with Rusty Cundieff’s TALES FROM THE HOOD from 1995, a supernatural anthology with a social conscience. What happens when racist cops, child abusers, drug dealers, dirty politicians, and white supremacists mix with zombies, monsters, mad scientists, and killer dolls? As we discover, this ain’t your average … Continue reading Ep. #23-Tales From the Hood →

  • Ep. #22-The Country Bears
    On this week’s episode, we tackle 2002’s THE COUNTRY BEARS, inspired by the classic Disney attraction. Who knew our first foray into G-rated fare would result in such profound talking points as the ethics of interspecies adoption, drug addiction, gender identification, and music appreciation? Oh, and maybe beastialtiy. Bear-gasms? Definitely. And hey, is that Christopher … Continue reading Ep. #22-The Country Bears →

  • Ep. #21-Caddyshack II
    On this week’s episode, the shack is back and–spoiler alert!–it’s whack! We discuss 1988’s much-maligned comedy sequel CADDYSHACK II, a movie so bad that co-host Luke literally fled the country to avoid it. Sucker. Who would want to miss seeing a talking, wine-swilling gopher puppet? So if you ever thought, “Hey, wouldn’t it be cool … Continue reading Ep. #21-Caddyshack II →

  • Ep. #20-Hot Rod
    On this week’s episode, we discuss The Lonely Island’s first feature film, 2007’s cult comedy HOT ROD. And by discuss, I mean we endlessly quote lines from it and laugh hysterically. So if that’s what you’re into, cool beans!

  • Ep. #19-Good Time
    On this week’s episode, we head back to the movie theater for 2017’s GOOD TIME, starring Robert Pattinson as a low-level criminal who will do anything to save his incarcerated younger brother. Underage make-out sessions, Sprite bottles of acid, bags of money, and BDSM-inspired amusement park rides all play crucial roles in the most realistic … Continue reading Ep. #19-Good Time →

  • Ep. #18-Crank
    On this week’s episode, we take an adrenaline shot straight to the heart with 2006’s bonkers action extravaganza CRANK, starring the one-and-only Jason Statham. We’ve got 90 minutes to determine if it’s pure genius or an offensive headache, and these Red Bulls and nasal sprays will only last for so long. Buckle up and enjoy!
    1 hr 34 min
  • Ep. #17-Whispers in the Dark
    On this week’s episode, things get steamy with 1992’s “erotic” thriller WHISPERS IN THE DARK, a film whose idea of sexy is having respected actors like Alan Alda spout such choice dialogue as, “You probably had a spontaneous emission right in your blue jeans.” And it only gets grosser from there.
