Chucky is back with Chad and Jess to talk about one of his favorite childhood movies, Cabin Boy. When pampered, self-centered fancy lad Nathaniel Mayweather graduates from prep school, he is to set sail aboard The Queen Catherine to join his father in Hawaii. One small mishap diverts his path to a quaint little fishing town, where he mistakenly ends up boarding The Filthy Whore, a fisherman's boat with a crew of roughneck, hard-edged seafarers that is anything but luxurious. While on board, Nathaniel's snobbish, arrogant, virginal personality is met with ire and distain, as the crew vow to be rid of him by any means necessary.

Every once in a while, a prolific director will step out of their comfort zone and do something completely unexpected. Because of this, Chad and Jess are back to discuss an odd installation in Kevin Smith's (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy) filmography, Tusk. Originally conceived on Smith's podcast, Tusk became an inside joke on the show, and eventually was voted on by listeners and fans to make the movie or not. #walrusyes won by a landslide, and for better or worse, the film was made. But, what is it about this film that can possibly stand out in the wake of so many other body horror films inspired by The Human Centipede? Does it have an identity of it's own, or is it simply the punchline it was meant to be? Whatever the case, we here at The Pretty Little Podcast commend anybody that tries something new, and we have some opinions about the film that we can't wait to share.

Today, Chad and Jess are back to talk about a beloved 1980's cult classic film, that for some reason Chad had never seen until now, The Lost Boys. For us, vampire films are extremely hit or miss. From Nosferatu to Twilight, it seems as if every writer and director have their own opinion as to what the rules of being eternally damned should be. Some stay more traditional, while others tend to be more modern and edgy, but with The Lost Boys, Joel Schumacher demanded we hold his beer and watch helplessly in awe of both, and neither at the same time. Does it hold up simply because of horny nostalgia, or can it stand it's ground in the endless plethora of vampiric content regurgitated year after year? We'll try to answer that question while we get distracted by a shirtless saxman and severe lack of crying little sisters in this episode!

When a social worker with big Karen energy (Miss Finch) decides that Big Bird (Sesame Street, Related Merchandise) isn't happy living on Sesame Street away from his "own kind", she and a panel of bureaucratic numbnuts ship him off to live with the Dodos; a strange bird family with weird Osmond vibes. Though reluctant at first, the citizens of Sesame Street wish him a fond farewell to possibly find happiness with his new adoptive family. However, upon hearing that Bird's best pal, Snuffy isn't allowed to visit, he backflips outta there, and hits the road back to The Street. Shortly after, local news reports alert Big Bird's friends and neighbors that he is missing, and they immediately rally together to go find him, and get their boy back.

Warner Brothers Family Entertainment, Jim Henson Studios and Children's Television Workshop proudly present "Follow That Bird", the very first ever feature length film based on the beloved children's classic television series, "Sesame Street". With a colorful cast of freakish weirdos like Oscar the Grouch, Bert and Ernie, Cookie Monster, The Count, Super-Grover, Kermit the Frog, and others, and celebrity cameos from Chevy Chase, Sandra Bernhard, John Candy, Dave Thomas, Joe Flaherty and Waylon Jennings, this big-hearted cross-country adventure holds up surprisingly well.

When two loveable losers inadvertently create a new sport on the spot during a bet, it becomes the talk of the town. So big, in fact, that it catches the eye of an enthusiastic sports tycoon who takes the game from their driveway to the stadium. Trey Parker and Matt Stone (South Park, Orgasmo, Team America: World Police) star in this zany, cornball stoner comedy full of friendship, romance, slapstick comedy, and all of the irreverent, offensive humor you could only expect from the creators of South Park.

HELLO ALL YOU PRETTY LITTLE PEOPLE! Season 2 is officially here! Today, Chad and Jess are discussing Munchies, a film from 1987 that is trying so hard to capitalize off of the success of "Gremlins", that it overlooked the fact that plot, character development and visual appeal are important elements to achieve that level of acclaim. Harvey Korman, Charlie Stratton, Nadine Van der Velde, and Robert Picardo star in this zany, cornball motion picture equivalent to ordering "Gremlins" from wish.com.

What would happen if Wes Craven combined "Home Alone" and "Nothing but Trouble"? Well, he'd come up with "The People Under the Stairs", a film that has elements of both, but not quite as good as either. And, for good measure, why not throw in a little of "The Goonies",  "Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Twin Peaks" while he's at it. A film mostly designed to highlight the class divide in a big city, The People Under the Stairs is definitely one of the more odd installments in Craven's filmography, and not nearly as noteworthy as many of his other films. But, despite his greater efforts, Craven has manifested something that feels plagiarized, but also manages to have unique identity (Just not really within a genre).
