Pottersville
December 07, 2023 05:01 - 1 hourThis week's movie is truly baffling as the guys look at the Christmas (adjacent) film Pottersville, which is somehow not about the fantasy town from It's a Wonderful Life. Nope, it's about a sasquatch... and the furry community?

A Little Piece of Heaven (w/Galen Howard)
November 30, 2023 05:01 - 1 hourThis week, the guys are joined by Galen Howard to wrap their heads around Kirk Cameron's brain and the film A Little Piece of Heaven, a joyful uplifting Christian movie in which children are kidnapped and convinced that they've died and gone to Heaven so they will hang out with Kirk's lonely developmentally delayed sister.

Blown Away
November 23, 2023 05:01 - 1 hourThis week, the guys talk about a movie that has maybe the most amount of movie a movie ever movied. That's right, it's 1994's Blown Away starring Jeff Bridges and Tommy "Ireland's Finest" Lee Jones. Why is everyone doing the most insane accent? Are bomb squads sexy? How many rube goldberg terrorist bombs can one man build in the span of a couple of days? Are they using U2 songs as the theme for the villain?! All this and a blarney stone to kiss in this week's episode! Next week: a very creep...
Fled
November 16, 2023 05:01 - 1 hourReady for the ultimate buddy movie team-up? Well, look no further than Laurence Fishburne and... Stephen Baldwin? Yes folks, let's Fled.

The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (w/Sharon Horwatt)
November 09, 2023 05:01 - 1 hourBack to the usual grind this week now that spooky season has come to a close as the guys discuss The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement. They're not alone though as they're joined by returning guest Sharon Horwatt, who knows an awful lot about this Disney franchise (is 2 movies enough for a franchise?)! Could John Rhys-Davies be playing a more cartoonish villain? What the hell is going on with Chris Pine's hair? Why couldn't Julie Andrews rap during the mattress-surfing party?! And could th...
Gamera vs. Barugon
November 02, 2023 04:01 - 1 hourSchlocktober has come to a close but it's time for Nathan's favourite time of the year - Gamera's birthday! In Gamera vs. Barugon, our feisty turtle friend battles a giant lizard-dog thing with a very powerful tongue and a real appreciation for LGBTQ pride.

All this and more! Next week: don't burn the fish! ...
Rings
October 26, 2023 04:01 - 1 hourSchlocktober concludes with a discussion of the absolutely pointless capper to the Ring trilogy... well... Rings. Could Vincent D'Onofrio give less of a damn? Why does this movie think Johnny Galecki is sexy? How come Samara has extra powers that only appear when they're convenient to the plot? An underground video-copying cartel!? All this and more! Next week: Turtle, turtle. What We've Been Watching: Totally Killer "Robyn Hood" Questions? Comments? Suggestions? You can always shoot us an...

Exit to Eden (w/Galen Howard)
September 28, 2023 04:01 - 1 hourThis week, Galen Howard joins the guys for a discussion of quite possibly the least sexy movie marketed as a sexy movie. Yes, that's right - the "sexually brilliant"Exit to Eden "starring" Dan Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell. The guys talk about the addition of a diamond smuggling plot not present in the source material, Rosie's dialogue seemingly consisting entirely of improv, Sex Yoda, the disturbing nanny fetish cold open and much more.

Vicious Lips
September 21, 2023 04:01 - 1 hourThis week, the guys are bestowed with a Patreon Pick from Everything I Learned from Movies in the form of Albert Pyun's Vicious Lips, a movie that seemingly has no purpose for its existence whatsoever. The discussion ranges all over the place including the lamest mass murderer of all-time, landing a huge music gig halfway through an audition, filming in Cher's bedroom, the infuriating twist that makes the movie even more pointless and much more. Next week: VERY SEXY. What We've Been Watchin...

The Legend of La Llorona
August 31, 2023 04:01 - 1 hourThere are five Thursdays this month and that means that it's time for a "Small-Screen Shameful."

Next...
The Circle

They also talk about the wild cameos from Rip Taylor and Billy Connolly, butt cheek-biting, the h...
GI Joe: Retaliation (w/Matthew Pettifer)
