This week on "Forgotten Cinema", the Mikes take on the 1986 cult car-fueled sci-fi action flick "The Wraith". Mike Field insists the film’s goofy charm and nostalgia make it worth revisiting, while Mike Butler flat-out hates it; declaring it the second worst film they've done on the podcast. Butler argues that it’s not campy enough to be a Troma-style guilty pleasure and too stupid to be genuinely entertaining.

The Mikes dive into the film’s odd mix of supernatural revenge, 80s cheese, and questionable storytelling, while also exploring behind-the-scenes facts, like Charlie Sheen's one day of work, production quirks, and the film’s legacy. One thing they do agree on? The Wraith’s car is undeniably cool.

So buckle up, because whether you think "The Wraith" is a forgotten gem or a pile of cinematic wreckage, this discussion goes full throttle.
