126: Son In Law
/
Our celebration of Pauly Shore continues as we watched Son In Law this week. We came home for Thanksgiving just in time for Christmas as we discuss the redundancy of assless chaps, the humor of a bloody nose, and the greatness of Steven Tyler PJs!
125: Encino Man
/
The Christmas season has begun, and what better way to kick it off than by celebrating a movie about a man that spent years in ice? This week, we watched Encino Man and asked some important questions. Who's the real villain? Why is Culture Clash no longer around? How moldy is the cheese? All these questions and more in this week's episode!!
124: Southland Tales
/
This week, we continue our viewer request series for Dr. Susan Love Breast Cancer Research Foundation. And to prove that no good deed goes unpunished, former friend of the show, James, has requested that we watch Southland Tales. It's a movie about, well, we're not quite sure what it's about. The director of Donnie Darko bet the farm with this follow up that is the longest SNL/Mad TV mashup sketch known to man. Will this movie hold up?
123: Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves
/
This week, we traveled to the land of James Bond and King Arthur to follow a hero that does not speak like he is from the land of James Bond and King Arthur, because this week we watched Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves staring dad bod incarnate: Kevin Costner. So buckle in as we discuss Bryan Adams, the dullness of spoons, and painted men!
122: Tremors

This week finds us on some shaky ground as we revisited Tremors at the request of listener @angibangie on Twitter. Who is the cooler character of the movie? Is Kevin Bacon a ginger? These and other questions will all be tackled on this episode!
121: The NeverEnding Story

This week is our first ever listener request as the movie we watched was chosen by the winner of the first Obscure for a Penny Zero twitter tournament, @stuckinaportal! This week, he chose for us to watch the 80s classic: The NeverEnding Story (spoiler alert: it has an ending). Will this well remembered movie hold up? Only one way to find out!
120: Halloween

It is Halloween, and what better movie for us to look back upon than John Carpenter's classic that launched a genre: Halloween. This week, we'll be asking if the day he came home holds up.
119: Ernest Scared Stupid
/
As we get closer to Halloween, we figured it was time to start getting scared. Scared stupid, that is! This week we watched the classic tale of redneck vs. troll, a tale as old as time.
118: Beetlejuice
/
This week's episode is all about the important questions. Why does saying someone's name 3 times both summon them and then destroy them? Why does this Alec Baldwin look nothing like any other incarnation of Alec Baldwin? Did those football players survive the accident? Learn all this and more as we ask if Beetlejuice holds up!
117: Elvira: Mistress of the Dark
/
This week we found ourselves travelling back to a time where the midnight Movie Macabre was still a thing and in the 80's there was one queen of that scene: Elvira! A woman that was so popular, that they gave her a movie that was all of her own. And we watched it. Then, when you finish this episode, head over to The Obscure Gentlemen to listen to their episode dedicated to the woman herself!
116: Dawn Of The Dead (2004)
/
Do you feel that? Oh, shit. Ooh ah-ah-ah! Ack! Ack! It's October once again, which means it's time to celebrate the arrival of Fall and the coming of Samhain with a month full of horror movies. We kick things off with Dawn of the Dead in which we discuss why leaving the mall was a mistake and how Modern Family is a prequel to this.
115: Major League
/
On this week's episode we celebrated a time before Charlie Sheen went crazy and Tom Berenger kind of disappeared. We watched Major League and celebrated America's favorite pastime!
114: Varsity Blues
/
This week we were told blatantly to fire that fuckin' pig skin, so we went ahead and watched Varsity Blues and now we can't ever stop telling our parents, "I don't want your life." So, yeah, we revisited that time that the Dawson played football.
113: Blazing Saddles
/
We're joined once again by James from 12 For A Penny this week as we celebrated comedy royalty and discussed Mel Brooks' classic: Blazing Saddles. So strap on in and join us as we take a wild ride back to the old west!
112: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
/
We're joined this week by James of The Obscure Gentlemen and 12 For a Penny as we mourn the loss of comedy legend, Gene Wilder, by watching the classic: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. So hold your breath, count to three, make a wish and come with us to a world of pure imagination.
111: Heathers
/
This week we watched a Christian Slater movie that didn't involve his older brother dying and celebrated the game of Croquet, plus it has Winona Ryder. This week, we went back to high school in the 80s to watch Heathers!
110: Small Soldiers
/
In this week's episode we discuss what it means to go to war with Small Soldiers as we talk about Joe Dante and why Tommy Lee Jones was likely a bad choice as a voice actor and then marvel over how this movie managed to get the rights to use a Led Zeppelin song.
109: Back To The Future
/
This week we decided we were ready to take that can't of rejection, so we put focus squarely on the time travelling classic: Back To The Future! For those not familiar, it's the age old tell of a kid who's mom falls in love with him while he hangs out with a crazy older man.
108: Bulworth
/
This week, we watched Warren Beatty embarrass himself while making a movie that was pretty much just an excuse to try and bang around with Halle Berry: Bulworth. Plus, we unveil an updated theme!
