Jairo of MARK AS PLAYED joins the show to suggest that while Ralph Fiennes is no body builder... his version of a serial killer is still "a touch on the sexy side."
This is just the beginning of disagreement as Mike defends the honor of ORIGINAL REMAKE by siding with Michael Mann's version of this Hannibal Lector adjacent story in MANHUNTER and our idiot guest sides with Brett Ratner.
Not just RED DRAGON but Brett Ratner. And that's not even mentioning the tiger penis sequence... though our guest does. Repeatedly. Enjoy!

Getting yourself in the mood for the Halloween season is easy if one tries to emulate the passion shared between Raul Julia and Angelica Huston's respective versions of Gomez and Morticia Addams. And while one host was really into the attacking of Christmas carolers and sword-fighting sunshine that dares to enter the marital bed of this great couple... the other was glad that the filmmakers decided to cut away before that passion went too far.
But there is no cutting away on Original Remake. Enjoy a month of THE ADDAMS FAMILY as we begin with the 1991 feature film adaptation!

In one of the worst movies ever reviewed on this podcast, we attempted to find positive things to talk about in a sequel no one asked for. With a decent idea with a twist on a retelling of the 1997 film I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER (1997), this installment failed to present anything in the franchise worthy of digging back up.

In preparation for a holiday weekend of no traveling we attempt to comfort you with some scary tales passed down from the 1998 film URBAN LEGEND. Perhaps the one about the killer waiting in the backseat of the car. Or the scratching sound coming from outside the car on Lover's Lane. Even the one about Tara Reid's career. Truly terrifying. All of this and some love for the great thespians coming out of the even greater state of Kentucky in our latest episode!

As we wind down the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad summer of 2020 why not make ourselves feel better by at least NOT being stalked by a smelly fisherman with a hook? To make this even more appealing we spend perhaps an unhealthy amount of time talking about Ryan Phillippe's butt, Jennifer Love Hewitt's chest and our complete lack of trust in Freddie Prinze Jr. to do a hard day's work. But he did marry Buffy! All of this is to say watching I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER was a better time than a pandemic summer. Even if everyone smells of fish.

In which our hosts agree that Hilary Swank could beat us all up (especially those ANIMAL CROSSING player DORKS) but we can't agree with this franchise going into bowling comedy. Alas this attempt to reboot THE KARATE KID succeeds mostly with comedy of the unintentional variety, which is where both Michael Ironside and ORIGINAL REMAKE come in. Enjoy!

As we get closer to episode 100 and the much dreaded/anticipated format change we decide once and for all: which of your two hosts is hairier? After that bit of masculinity is settled it's on to LA CAGE AUX FOLLES and THE BIRDCAGE in a battle of deception between two great pairs of fathers and two horrible sons. Happy Father's Day!

While the practical applications of horror classic FRIGHT NIGHT might have always been in doubt, in the age of social distancing we see two neighbors truly crossing lines in both the 1985 and 2011 versions of these comedic takes on the vampire genre. And while one host likes his vampire neighbor a bit more aggressive when he comes over to borrow a can of beer the other host, perhaps due to his southern gentlemen upbringing, prefers the charm of an unbuttoned shirt and a come hither gaze. I believe you appropriately in the mood for our long-awaited episode on FRIGHT NIGHT.

On Easter we celebrate the ultimate New Year's movie... which we planned to release on Valentine's Day... and perhaps you could blame the slow editing crew for missing a better joke release date of April Fool's... but YOU KNOW WHAT?? Anytime is a good time to revisit WHEN HARRY MET SALLY... and for at least one of our co-hosts its also a holiday to rewatch one of his favorite films of 2019 in ALWAYS BE MY MAYBE. We discuss the chances of both couples as friends and lovers, the speeches given, and Billy Crystal's unfortunate white man's overbite. Happy holidays... all of them!

No longer the podcast bad boys we once were it's time to come to terms with the fact that our goatees are white and not only are our dreams of being as cool as Will Smith not happening... we may not be as cool as Martin Lawrence. But a review of our own lives is for another time! Instead we look at the BAD BOYS franchise from its beginning to the 2020 hit BAD BOYS FOR LIFE, stopping just long enough on BAD BOYS 2 to shoutout the great Michael Shannon.

This episode reveals the origin story of an unappreciated podcaster with talent who meets a well-known drunk and thus this very podcast was born. Shockingly Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper tell a very similar story in their Oscar-nominated remake of a film that is now on its fourth incarnation. We choose to compare it to the 1976 version with Barbara Streisand and Kris Kristofferson because it's all about the music. Man. Or something like that. Click these links, that's what matters:

Peter is back after being thrown OVERBOARD for our first episode of 2019, but he gets his revenge on co-host Mike by taunting him over his lack of a shoe rack built by The Great Kurt Russell. As it turns out in that 1987 film his co-star Goldie Hawn also does not get such magnificent shelving for shoes and instead through the movie magic of amnesia finds out that she is married to Mr. Russell (life imitates art, I guess) and is now a blue collar mother of three. This original film gave birth to another remake but on this episode we are talking about the 2018 version starring Eugenio Derbez and Anna Faris. And we were not amused. Hopefully you are with this episode though, which you can find at the links below:

2018 is over but we cynically expect 2019 to get a whole hell of a lot worse. And to help us with that doomsday predicting mood we bring on the biggest cinephile cynic we know, Ben Zuk of 99 FROM 99 to take in a double feature of NIGHT OF THE DEMON and DRAG ME TO HELL. And while Sam Raimi's 2009 film was loosely inspired by this 1957 horror movie, they both provide a great playbook with how to live with a curse. For instance one might want to try killing a cat? Or better yet, just leave that to the movies, you'll feel better about yourself and we'll feel better after you click on these links below:

And here are some other movie podcasts I host:
December 28, 2018
For Christmas 2018 one of us decided to make a trip to theater to see Illumination's new animated GRINCH movie. And while Mike came away pleasantly surprised at this latest version of the Grinch cinematic universe, Peter truly played the part and stayed inside like a hermit to watch the 1966 and 2000 versions of HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS. We debate the merits of telling this story in a longer form, animated vs. live action, and most importantly of all... do loyal dog companions really care if their Christmas treat says "naughty" or "nice" on it?

We conclude the "I Know What You Did.." series with the sequel to the 1997 hit and talk about the problematic Jack Black and more of Jennifer Love Hewitt. And like many sequels that get rushed after the success of the first installment, does this one suffer like many of those do? 
In this episode we learn that what a young man does when Elisabeth Shue leaves him is travel with a very old man back to his home country so that the very old man can get laid... One. Last. Time. Enjoy our episode on THE KARATE KID PART 2!
In our new format, and continuing "The Karate Kid" month, we review and celebrate The Karate Kid (2010) turning 10 and have a discussion about Dre Parker and Mr. Han in this modern update of the classic film.
In our new format, we declare July to be "The Karate Kid" month. Celebrating it's 36th anniversary and it's recent return to Netflix, we revisit The Karate Kid (1984) and have a discussion about Daniel's facial expressions throughout the film.
