A spooky-ass carnival led by Mr. Dark preys on small town misfortune by granting Monkey's Paw wishes in this older-audience Disney experiment. But could Disney resist being Disney? Why doesn't anybody remember this film!?! By the pricking of my thumbs, something Brainy this way comes.
A group of rootin' tootin' 80's heartthrobs strap on holsters and learn to cowboy to bring the exploits of Billy the Kid's Regulators to the silver screen. Emilio Estevez called it a "heavy metal western," so if you to rock, make the sign of the horns and blast the Brains!
Diane Keaton hauls in a Best Performance Academy Award on the Best Picture winner of 1977. How did Woody Allen funnel kvetching and pathos into an award-winning romantic comedy when so many are dead sharks? The Brains explore awkward moments like no other; come squirm with us!
VCRs, landline telephones, tube televisions, the Dewey Decimal System... what is scarier: antiquated 90's technology or a cursed VHS tape that kills hapless viewers? The Brains dismantle this Japanese export to discern how a cheesy premise provided such a spooktacular outcome.
Detective Nick Nolte gets con Eddie Murphy out of the slammer for 48 hours to catch a thief in Murphy's first major film. This early 80's buddy "cop" comedy inspired countless copycats. It's far from PC, but can modern film lovers enjoy this piece of history? The Brains own your ass, so tune in.
Joel and Ethan Coen helm a botched-kidnapping-indie-blockbuster boasting fascinating characters, Midwest accents, unapologetic violence, plus a search for a tan Ciera and a funny-looking guy, destined for the wood-chipper. With the bevy of low-budget 90's flicks, how do the Coen brothers uniquely cajole a simple plan into an unforgettable masterpiece? Put out an APB for the Brains or you might regret it, dontcha know?
Kevin Costner stars as a Robin Hood with the winning smile and bow skills to make maidens quiver. Yet it's Alan Rickman who steals the show portraying a villain dark as Snape and as cold as Hans Gruber. Is robbing the rich to help the poor even relevant today? Clamber up a tree and join the Brains in the 'Ewok Village' of Sherwood Forest!
This late 80's adaptation of a cyberpunk graphic novel kicked off America's fascination with Japanimation [sic]. Akira explores what happens when children have the power to destroy Tokyo. And The Brains consider, "aren't we all children?" Tetsuo!! Kaneda!! AKIRA! Wherever you listen to podcasts.
Can satire be so subtle no one gets it? Would Paul Verhoeven make an over the top space war movie just to mock the genre without letting the actors in on it? Would anyone suspect Starship Troopers to inspire such philosophical pondering? Hear the Brains work out the Bugs.
A precocious scientist goes to college at 15 for lessons on lasers and love. His roommate, Val Kilmer, earns an easy A as the unicorn of nerds: an extroverted, witty, charming, handsome genius. Will the government and an egotistical professor spoil their discovery, or will a kernel of revenge planted by students pop up at the right moment? Hear fake Brains discuss Real Genius (1985), wherever you listen to podcasts.
