Tales from the Bargain Bin

TFTBB normal service resumes this month when Claire and Ryan retreat from the sunlight and get their teeth sunk into a Vampire Classic and it's straight to video sequel.

You guessed it, it's 1987's Bon Jovi Children of the night cult classic 'The Lost Boys' and its not so good or classic for that matter sequel from 2010, 'The Lost Boys 3: The Thirst'.

Why is everyone always laughing in this first film?

Is there some kind of Garlic Broth available on the market?

And did Corey Feldman supply his own set of Katanas?

This episode Claire and Ryan deliver a rousing half time speech and discuss everyone's favorite lil slugger 50's nostagiathon 'The Sandlot Kids' and it's on the injury table and disgraced in the media coke habit cousin 'The Sandlot Kids 3: Heading Home', starring the late Luke Perry.

This week Claire and Ryan have been through a horrific accident and have been resurrected by the miracle of Science and just a teensy splash of Ancient Necromancy, as we watch 2014's internet hated remake of a classic 'Robocop' starring Joel Kinneman and Batman, and then compare the shiny armors of The Asylums efforts in 2014's internet unknown 'Android Cop' starring Michael Jai White and Tinman.

Does this man not know his plans from his stages?

Could this Android Cop be any more average?

And is there actually anything worse out there than Chappie!?
