Are you a grown-up who grew up in the TV Generation? You're in the right place! Hindsight is Horrifying is THE show for the TV Generation!


Hindsight is Horrifying is the podcast where three allegedly grown-up (and certainly somewhat cynical) hosts mine the TV shows and movies of our youth for the "grown-up" humor we just didn't get as kids.


At least that's the idea. We also do a lot of talking about movies and TV shows in general, and sometimes we even make sense!


Recorded in Alpharetta, Georgia, Hindsight is Horrifying is the show to check out if you grew up on TV and ended up just a bit cynical.

Are Nerds to Sexy for 2023? It's "Revenge of the Nerds" on Hindsight is Horrifying!

September 26, 2023 22:00 - 1 hour - 218 MB

It’s every nerdy boy’s dream to matriculate into college and hook up with the head cheerleader, no matter the cost. This 1980s “classic” turns that dream into a wildly illegal reality! Academically oriented freshmen Lewis & Gilbert (we THINK those are their names) discover just how shallow the dating pool is when they face off with the vicious Greek Council and feral cheerleaders of Adams College. Sexual assault abounds as the geeky tri-Lambdas seek retribution against the bullying and har...

Your fighter ace dad is facing the gallows in a non-existent outlaw nation for the crime of being American.   It’s up to Doug Masters and Col. Chappy Sinclair (yes, those are really their names) to hatch a PLAN. Just not before Doug races a Cessna against a dirt bike.   Jumpin’ Jack Flash, this has GOT to be an 80s movie.   Col. Ted Masters (seriously, these names ...

Bill Murray chases girls and a man eats hotdogs! It's "Meatballs" on Hindsight is Horrifying!

August 31, 2023 22:00 - 1 hour - 95.9 MB

What could be better than chasing tail and cheating at sports in the great outdoors? Nothing we humble podcasters can dream up, unless you figure out a way to factor in Bill Murray in a kid’s toy helmet. This 70s nonsensical classic not only granted the world access to the incomparable team that was Ivan Reitman, Harold Ramis, and Bill Murray. This film also taught us the greatest lesson that any kid could garner from summer camp: DON’T BE A MEATBALL! What’s a meatball? If you have to ask,...

CAN WE GET RON BURGUNDY ON THE PHONE???  WE DON’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE YELLING ABOUT! Oh wait, none of this matters, because everyone is dead or undead except for Cha...

Burt Reynolds and Jan-Michael Vincent Break a World Record! It's "Hooper" on Hindsight is Horrifying!

August 15, 2023 22:00 - 1 hour - 108 MB

CALLING ALL KEITH DAVIDS! Wait…Keith David WASN’T in this movie? Damn it, Jason… *Awkward Intermission* Stunt men, drunk driving, and bar fights, OH MY! Picture it: Sally Field stars in a movie where Burt Reynolds is the badass. No one saw that coming. But have you ever seen a horse drink beer? No one could pull off sexy meta narcissism like ol’ Burt. Psh. Don’t judge. Like any of y’all have your own Hollywood stunt reel to show off to your friends… When Mr. Brown’s away, Darth and Jas...

John Carpenter's homage to John Wayne! It's "Assault on Precinct 13" on Hindsight is Horrifying.

August 11, 2023 20:47 - 1 hour - 92.2 MB

Hold on to your gun silencers, it’s time for a gang assault!  In this John Carpenter classic that was remade into a film starring Ethan Hawke that no one remembers, Darth, Adam, and Jason cannot figure out which is more fascinating:  The fact that Precinct 13 is not IN precinct 13 or The idea that a man can continuously “fire” an empty gun without realizing it.  There’s no time to consider either glaring error when you’re being attacked by a pack of zombie-like Chicano/black/oriental tou...

July 27, 2023 15:25 - 48 minutes - 66.4 MB

For some added fun, Frank and Roger travel through Texas en route to Colorado, roughhousing on dirt bikes and playing witness to the grisly Satanic cult murder of a hot young woman. It’s all in good fun until the cult in question sets it sights on Frank, Roger, their wives, and the beloved family d...

Special Guest Gene Hackman! Technically. It's "The Birdcage" on Hindsight is Horrifying!

July 07, 2023 19:43 - 1 hour - 108 MB

Gloria Estefan was right. The cross-dressing rhythm IS going to get you.  Picture it. South Beach, 1996. You’re a young straight man in love with the daughter of an imperiously conservative politician. Add to this equation that your parents are gay partners who own and star in a South Beach drag club. You and said daughter are engaged and now it’s time for your perilously opposite parents to meet one another. What do you do but turn your gay parents into a Lucille Ball-level illusion of tra...

A secret James Bond movie? With Nicholas Cage?! It's "The Rock" on HiH

December 06, 2022 18:55 - 1 hour - 138 MB

In The Rock, Nicholas Cage proves just how far a man will go to avoid committing to a relationship. When given the choice to address his imminent future with his pregnant girlfriend or fly across the nation to take down a group of insurgent American marines threatening their own country with an act of terrorism, Stanley Goodspeed (Cage), CANNOT get on a plane fast enough. Goodspeed is a D.C. biochemist who must Face Off (pun intended) with terrorists who have taken over the former prison...

It's a floating skeleton! On strings! We watch House on Haunted Hill!

October 04, 2022 22:08 - 1 hour - 155 MB

“Darling…the only ghoul in this house is you.” – Annabelle Loren Welcome to the party on Haunted Hill, where the ghost stories aren’t made up, and the grudges do matter. Frederick Loren is hosting a gathering where all the guests get to walk away with ten thousand dollars apiece…assuming they survive the night in a horribly haunted house. Not enough of a twist, you say? Your favorite podcasters agree. As it turns out, the ghosts (and one random werewolf) might not be the most dangerous inha...

A secret Johnny Depp and Christopher Walken movie? We talk "Nick of Time" on HiH

August 19, 2022 22:05 - 1 hour - 177 MB

Darth was today years old when she discovered that Johnny Depp and Christopher Walken star in more than one movie together. In one of those movies, Nick of Time, Mr. Smith (Walken) threatens to murder Gene Watson’s (Johnny Depp) little girl unless Watson pulls the trigger on Governor Eleanor Grant during a public speech in a downtown L.A. hotel. And we have a movie! This film has everything going for it on paper. You have a handsome leading man racing against the clock. You have Christop...

Kelsey Grammer vs the United States Navy! It's "Down Periscope" on HiH!

August 19, 2022 22:02 - 1 hour - 132 MB

In this schlocky 90s comedy, Lt. Cmdr. Tom Dodge and his tattooed dick are facing a stacked deck. Due to his decorative penis and quirky methods of command, Dodge has been passed over for promotion by the Navy Selection Committee year after year. But when Rip Torn decides to pull rank out of pure nepotism for his own errant son (which no one seems to notice or care about), Dodge finally gets a shot at captaining his very own recommissioned, yet utterly decrepit, submarine. It’s up to Dod...

The 80s were great! Except for this movie. It's Jumpin' Jack Flash on HiH!

August 05, 2022 16:53 - 1 hour - 158 MB

When you’re an under cover operative in a tough spot, who do you reach out to for help? James Bond? Ethan Hunt? Elon Musk? NOPE.

Meet Terry Doolittle (Goldberg), professional smartass and computer genius, also known as a bank chat specialist. Terry stumbles into the world of espionage when English spy, code name Jumpin’ Jack Flash, reaches out to her with cryptic communic...

Leo DiCaprio and the Quasi-Commie Hellhole! It's "The Beach" (2000)!

June 09, 2022 17:27 - 1 hour - 180 MB

What would you do for a Klondike bar? Would you bark like a dog? What would you do to maintain the secret of Nirvana? Would you murder a shark-bitten Swede? Leo DiCaprio sure would! In Danny Boyle’s 2000 film The Beach, some intrepid travelers seek a hidden island paradise for non-parasites in Thailand, a country where marijuana was recently legalized! After their deeply disturbed fellow traveler, Daffy, commits suicide on the Khao San Road, Richard discovers a map bequeathed to him by D...

Burt Reynolds is the Sexiest Cop in Atlanta! In 1981. Sharky's Machine!

May 05, 2022 16:29 - 1 hour - 119 MB

There’s this call girl. She’s got a bad rap, see? She’s stuck with a murderous john who owns all the hookers in Atlanta; he puts her up in a nice penthouse with fabulous clothes and all the dance classes she could ask for. It’s up to a ruggedly handsome vice cop to rescue her and give her the run-down home of her dreams in a ghetto part of the city so they can live happily ever after next to a playground of noisy ass kids.

Bill Murray is in the Army now! It's "Stripes" (1981)!

April 28, 2022 19:19 - 1 hour - 138 MB

Oh, my GOD, Mr. Cotter, I want YOU! What if Cheech and Chong joined the army? We’ll never know for sure, but Stripes gives us a close enough idea when Bill Murray talks Harold Ramis into becoming a grunt in this 80s comedy. John and Russell join the army, mud-wrestling shenanigans ensue, and our would-be heroes get the girls, but can they protect America’s newest super-weapon/shaggin’ wagon? Probably not, but it hardly matters when your main goal in life is to be the sharpest loofah in you...

Matt Damon & The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Italian Vacation

April 18, 2022 21:59 - 1 hour - 120 MB

Not all of us can travel abroad during our college years. Some of us can’t afford college or travel and are subsequently forced to fantasize about that magnificent day when a random, white-collar gentleman will offer us $1000 to travel to Italy to locate and return his wayward, womanizing son. Matt Damon lucks out in the extreme in this story; he is literally paid to visit a fictional town in Italy to locate Jude Law and bring him home to America to fulfill his destiny as a shipping heir....

The best Chevy Chase movie ever? It's Fletch on Hindsight is Horrifying

March 29, 2022 18:08 - 1 hour - 158 MB

Danger is around every corner when you’re an “anonymous” journalist with a drug beat and alimony to pay. Luckily, Fletch, known as Jane Doe to his readers (we assume he has some, but no one ever confirms this fact) is mediocre at disguise and masterful at confusing his targets with jibber jabber. Fletch finds himself in the crosshairs when he’s asked to commit murder by a mysterious rich Mormon who mistakes him for one of his many alter egos; I mean, who wouldn’t trust thousands of dollars ...

The second worst Dan Aykroyd movie ever?

March 18, 2022 20:22 - 1 hour - 134 MB

Holy hairpiece, Jason Alexander!  Oh yes, it's George AND Kramer from Seinfeld, along with Dan Aykroyd and just about everyone else who made an appearance on SNL in the late 80s and early 90s.  When a failed recon mission strands him and his wife on Earth, what is an extraterrestrial to do other than make a half-assed attempt to blend in with the neighbors? Beldar and Prymaat make the best of their suburban purgatory while raising their daughter who possesses the wildly rebellious tendency...

Teach your mother to masturbate! This lesson and more when we watch 'Pleasantville' on HiH

March 02, 2022 18:48 - 1 hour - 49.5 MB

Honey, we’re home! And where’s our dinner?? Who doesn’t want to have sex in technicolor? The people of Pleasantville, that’s who! That is, at least, until Reese Witherspoon comes along! But don’t let the black and white swirl get your TV antenna in a twist! Join, Darth, Jason, and Adam for a romp through simpler times that become instantly complicated when Don Knotts abducts two 90s teenagers. Tune in for some salacious and visionary thinking during Pleasantville. And remember…you’re soakin...

From embryo to woman in 4.5 weeks! Also she's a killer. Watch "Embryo" (1976) on HiH

January 31, 2022 20:06 - 1 hour - 127 MB

Ah, the 1970s. You've given us so many movies to suffer through. What more could you offer? Turns out, the 1970s can offer us a bland movie about Rock Hudson using mad science to save a dog's life. Which is fine. Only he then decides to use the same science to create a total babe who wants to "learn" about "nookie." Oh, and the dog and the babe are both super cool with killing. Thanks, 1970s. And, yes, there's frontal nudity.  Watch "Embryo" (1976) on Hindsight is Horrifying! Hosted on ...

A holiday slasher film from the director of "A Christmas Story"? It's "Black Christmas (1974).

January 05, 2022 15:36 - 1 hour - 111 MB

Bob Clark has given the world so much. He gave us "A Christmas Story" and defined the holiday movie. He gave us "Porky's" and defined the teenage sex comedy. He gave us "Baby Geniuses" and gave us diarrhea.    In "Black Christmas" he not only gave us the slasher film, but he also defined many of the tropes that would be used again and again for decades to come. The gang welcome their friend Adam Darby back to the studio to talk about the 1974 cut-em-up Christmas classic, "Black Christmas....

Bill Murray hates Christmas! It's "Scrooged" on Hindsight is Horrifying!

December 21, 2021 21:11 - 1 hour - 108 MB

Ok, so Bill Murray probably doesn't hate Christmas. But he does a great job portraying a humbug in the 1988 Richard Donner comedy, "Scrooged." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's obligatory holiday movie time with "Fatman" on Hindsight is Horrifying.

December 09, 2021 21:36 - 1 hour - 108 MB

It's December! For some reason, that means we all have to watch Christmas movies. This appears to be a law, and the gang aren't taking any chances. Join them as they take their first obligatory trip down mandated festive joy. "Fatman" is a movie that just doesn't know what it wants to be. Comedy? Action? Tarantino-esque killfest? No clue. All we know is that the gang sit down and watch Mel Gibson in "Fatman" (2020). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Utah is Terrifying! It's "Carnival of Souls" on Hindsight is Horrifying

November 24, 2021 19:34 - 1 hour - 101 MB

It was Darth's turn to pick a movie this week, and she actually didn't use that power to inflict misery on Adam and Jason. Instead, the gang got to watch something of a hidden gem. It's the 2000 drama/comedy about a slice of waspy life, "Wonder Boys." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Phantom of the Opera? No. It's "Phantom of the Paradise" on Hindsight is Horrifying

November 11, 2021 21:15 - 1 hour - 103 MB

Today we end our malformed Halloween season with a look at Brian De Palma's trippy musical extravaganza, "Phantom of the Paradise." Before Andrew Lloyd Weber gave the world his lesser-known version of Leroux's famous novel, the bell-bottomed population of the 1970s was subjected to this prog/folk acid trip. The plot concerns a weird and disturbing composer who is maimed and turned into a weird and disturbing composer who wears a mask. Like Sia, only the music in this movie is better (it was...

Billy Zane's best role! Also his shortest. It's Critters on Hindsight is Horrifying!

November 08, 2021 20:09 - 1 hour - 157 MB

November 08, 2021 20:08 - 1 hour - 89.1 MB

Young Adam is back! And mysteriously, Adam B. is missing... But let's not get bogged down in 'who killed who for a guest spot on a YouTube show.' Instead, let's watch the sequel to Sam Raimi's debut film (and the best horror sequel ever), Evil Dead II. Dead by Dawn! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Prince Humperdinck battled Chucky? It's Child's Play on Hindsight is Horrifying.

October 21, 2021 20:20 - 1 hour - 103 MB

Yes, Prince Humperdinck battled Chucky, but at least he didn’t have a date with a 6-year-old boy… It’s officially Halloween, the spookiest and most magical season of them all. And what better way to celebrate the unholiest of high holidays but with the movies that scared us witless when we were younger? That’s right, #Hindsighters, Jason has raised a new challenge from the dead, and your bold podcasters are dredging up the most fearful movies of their formative years for your vindictive ent...

Jeff Goldblum and Cyndi Lauper in the same movie? Yep, it's Vibes (1988) on Hindsight is Horrifying

October 11, 2021 23:02 - 1 hour - 102 MB

Vibes is one of those forgotten 80s movie gems that deserves a second look. Not a third look though. Two will do. After all, we're talking about the first (and only) cinematic pairing of the great Jeff Goldblum and the irritating Cyndi Lauper. As psychics. Heck, it even earned a star from Roger Ebert. And that's exactly one star more than he gave Death Race 2000. Join the gang as they return to the greatest decade in movie history for the 1988 comedy, "Vibes." Hosted on Acast. See acast.c...

Killing Aliens with Windex! It's Alien Conquest (2021) on Hindsight is Horrifying

September 20, 2021 20:47 - 1 hour - 211 MB

Jason has a list. It's a list of very, very bad movies. Movies that are as bad as they are...free to watch. Alien Conquest tells the touching story of Tom Sizemore's battle with addiction and recovery, set against the backdrop of the most implausible alien invasion since "Hobgoblins." Enjoy this incompetent ripoff of "War of the Worlds" on Hindsight is Horrifying! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Lou Diamond Phillips vs Mark Wahlberg! It's The Big Hit (1998) on Hindsight is Horrifying

August 17, 2021 12:50 - 1 hour - 105 MB

The Big Hit: “Let’s go, baby! Let’s work!” Did you ever consider the hitman’s feelings when he kidnaps you? You will when you watch this trashtastic piece of cinema starring Lou Diamond Phillips, Marky Mark, and Mark Wahlberg! For real, #Hindsighters, what innocent catholic schoolgirl doesn’t dream about falling victim to kidnaping and inevitable Stockholm Syndrome when they’re taken hostage by someone as hot as Marky Mark? #Hindsighters, forget about Christina Applegate (we’re kidding; e...

Saluting the late, great Ned Beatty - We talk about Network (1976)

August 05, 2021 18:31 - 1 hour - 105 MB

This week's episode is dedicated to Jason's old friend. Dr. Rodney "Jason" Hatfield passed away suddenly on 14 July. He was a great human being and an outstanding family man. He will be missed. Hindsighters, please consider donating to the Rodney “Jason” Hatfield memorial scholarship which will benefit Dr. Hatfield’s children. Donations can be made here. What to say about this week's episode? Well, it's a classic of American cinema more relevant now than ever. It's the 1976 comedy that bec...

The Mummy Returns (2001)

July 28, 2021 18:11 - 1 hour - 104 MB

“It’s a bird, a stork!”: NO! It’s The Mummy Returns, where Egyptian history is made up and the reincarnation points don’t matter.     #Hindsighters, your beloved Darth Jader is not embarrassed to admit that, as a child, she thought scarab beetles would be a much larger problem in her adult life than even quicksand, all due to what cartoons and mummy movies may have taught her. Despite their combined efforts, Darth, Adam, and Katie cannot discern whether dying by scarabs, quicksand, or pir...

Shark Night (2011)

July 08, 2021 20:13 - 1 hour - 104 MB

The gang is back from their adventure with sharks at the Georgia Aquarium. In honor of that, they've decided to watch a movie about attractive people getting in the water with sharks. It's essentially the same story, albeit with somewhat more death and nearly 12% more creepy Louisiana guy with bad teeth. It's the 2011 sexy teen / bikini / coming of age / friendship / horror / comedy / romance movie "Shark Night," directed by the guy who made Snakes on a Plane. And Ted from Schitt's Creek is...

Ed Wood (1994)

June 29, 2021 13:50 - 1 hour - 119 MB

Ed Wood was more than a man...so much more. By that, we mean he was a director. No, a filmmaker. A filmmaker who fought against the Hollywood machine to make crappy movies that have entertained generations of insomniacs (and MST3K fans). And to think he did in drag. Join Jason, Darth, and Adam B. as they watch the 1994 Tim Burton "bio" pic about this enigmatic hero from cinema history. And to think, Adam B. does the whole episode in drag. Full circle, folks. Hosted on Acast. See acast....

Tarzan in Manhattan (1989)

June 21, 2021 17:07 - 1 hour - 97.7 MB

Tonight, on a very special episode of Hindsight is Horrifying, host Adam B. picks a movie in tribute of the late actor Joe Lara. Fans will remember that Adam and Joe worked together on the action movie, "Strike Zone," which we previously reviewed. Unfortunately, given Joe's repertoire, pickings were slim so we ended up with "Tarzan in Manhattan." It's a 1989 pilot movie for a show that never went to series. After watching, we were surprised that it was actually kinda good. Sort of. Enjoy ...

Clerks (1994)

June 11, 2021 19:25 - 1 hour - 92.9 MB
