Episode 83 Xanadu

While certainly not a great film, the endearing fiasco that is Xanadu (1980) is probably the definition of watchable garbage. This musical disasterpiece on rolling shoes is most notable for being Gene Kelly’s final screen appearance and for inspiring the Razzies, but it’s also got some great ELO songs, a charming animation sequence from Don Bluth Productions, and a campy lightness that adds up to a whole lotta dumb fun. Cue the clarinets and get in the backseat, baby cuz it’s time to bring back the wipe! It’s Ex Rated Movies!
