Oreo Brewer returns to the show to highlight the tie-in material for the CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK universe.

Where can one find the motion comics for the first and third movie?

What cool new characters voiced by famous actors appeared in both SPLINTER CELL inspired videogames?

Was the anime movie by the AEON FLUX creator any good?

Maybe DC Comics Animation Director Sam Liu can help bring another Riddick anime to life should the 4th live-action film not come out anytime soon?

In this minisode, we do a brief overview on the pros and cons of both SHIN GODZILLA (2016) and GODZILLA MINUS ONE (2024).

TALKING POINTS:

*James also recounts what else he saw at the recent Boston Film Festival that GODZILLA MINUS ONE was showing at

I present to you a mini-overview on these European spy action films with an all-star cast: a double feature of the ANTI-TERROR CELL movies!

Is this one of the few times we've seen Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy) play a good guy?

Why did these not get picked up to series?

Who else is in this stacked cast?

And do the thrills deliver?

Welcome to a themed week on Antiheroes in Fiction:

To start off, I summarize your parent's favorite '80s NBC Dramas by Steven Bochco.

Does L.A. Law hold any muster or is it sadly rather dated?

Is there anybody likeable on the Serpico-inspired drama Hill Street Blues or is it only a cesspool of crooked bastards?

Aside from their cultural influence, what other material and dramatic impact did they leave?

Find out in this fun revisit!

SONG USED

It was time for another actor retrospect where we take review movies on their resume with similar themes.

This time we get to tackle 4 Rebecca De Mornay slashers/psycho thrillers:

*The Hand That Rocks the Cradle

*Table for One

*Identity

*Mother's Day (2010)

Which of these stands out the most?

Which of these is sadly underrated?

Plus, Oreo & I joke how we're so glad we're not at any creepy places as depicted in these movies!

We do our final discussion on the FX cable TV show THE SHIELD with a villains retrospect:

*When you're all a group of crooked cops, who's ultimately the worst of the bunch?

*Which of the serial killers and gangsters were also very freaky?

*And we get to play some awesome clips from the show as well as a clip from Walton Goggin's interview on The Rich Eisen Show!

OUR GUESTS INCLUDE:

Josh Hansen (Action Movie Book Club)

Carlo Giovannetti (The Movie Loot) 

SONG USED:

In this minisode, we do another special editions/director's cut versions overview and this time it's over A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 5 & 6.

For Elm Street 5, we mention scenes from the Unrated Cut which was never restored past its VHS release. For Part 6, we discuss all 4 versions: the theatrical, home video, workprint & UPN TV edit.

Do any of these change the infamy associated with these cult movie sequels or are there some gems worth seeking out here?

What happens when you mash-up GROUNDHOG's DAY with SCREAM? You get mixed results at best!

What do these slasher dark comedies get right and what do they get (mostly) wrong?

Is Bear McCreary's score worth a listen on its own merit?

Is anyone noteworthy here or do they essentially all become variations of the same kind of cliche characters this genre is known for?

All that and more summaries during Slasher September!

Before The Asylum became the main production outlet for SyFy Channel Original Movies, they were coming up with even quirkier low-budget B-movie material.

I sum up the Killer Scarecrow trilogy, some surprisingly then-unknown and genre favorite actors who make cameos and the other shenanigans that entail in this film (all inbetween whacky reactions)!

We conclude the week with this awesome re-edit where my 3 incredible guests and I conclude the highlights, fight scenes, dramatic reveals & social commentary on Showtime's edgy show RAY DONOVAN.
