Episode 171 - Donnie Darko/Flight of the Navigator

Wormholes, alternate timelines and ghosts in bunny suits that won't leave you alone!

Episode 169 - Bloodsport/Under Siege

Van Damme vs Seagal! U.S.A vs Australia! Snack vs snack! And KUMITE!!! It's an episode filled with machismo this week as we introduce Krissy to her very 1st movies from two late 80s/early 90s action icons, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal! The movies, chosen by poll, were Bloodsport (1988) and Under Siege (1992)! And helping us do so were visitors all the way from Down Under, Bradlee and Fuzzy D from Who Spiked The Puns ?! We also collectively experience what might be the grossest #Myster...

Episode 167 - The Hand That Rocks the Cradle/Dead Calm

Thriller week is back! For Krissy's sake, we take a break from action and human centipedes and such to experience two films with some major family drama and trauma - The Hand That Rocks the Cradle (1992) and Dead Calm (1989)! But before we get to that, Justin confesses a secret he's been carrying around for several LONG days! How does Krissy react to this betrayal? And speaking of lies, these two movies are built on 'em! We discuss our mutual love for Rebecca DeMornay and Nicole Kidman, hot nann...

Episode 166 - Fantasy Movie Draft: 1990 Movies

1990! A calendar year that was light on great movies but heavy on OK to bad ones! We quickly made that discovery in this week's #FantasyMovieDraft with the theme being 'Movies Released in 1990!' Yup - get ready - because we're going back to the 90s for several drafts over the next year to mine for cinematic gold.

It's Fourth of July week and we're coming out the gate with major fireworks this episode - Krissy finally experiences Rocky IV (1985) for the first time AND we go one on one in the #FantasyMovieDraft to end all drafts - Leonardo DiCaprio movies! Mano y womano! Things get a bit tense, words are said and, once the dust is settled, there will be a victor! THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

Episode 162 - Faves of 2007/There Will Be Blood

We drink your milkshakes! We drink them right up! Or at least one of us probably will - because Krissy FINALLY saw There Will Be Blood after years of badgering! What took her so long and what did she think? The answer might surprise you! But what's her beef with Daniel Day Lewis? And what does Michael Jackson have to do with all this? Plus, we take a trip back in our dilapidated Delorean to the year of 2007 to discuss our faves! Is your fave one of the ones we'd save in a house fire? And we're b...

Episode 160 - Howard the Duck/The Garbage Pail Kids Movie

How BAD can we go? Everyone else is talking about Wonder Woman this week so we decided, since we couldn't get to a theater, to zig when everyone else was zagging and we watched the ridiculous 80s double feature of Howard the Duck (1986) and The Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987)! Brilliant counterprogramming move or big mistake?! Only time will tell as we are still feeling from the after effects! But we do get to discuss all the most important subjects, like: Lea Thompson's hair, #DuckBoners, scrota...

And we invited another fun podcasting couple along - Josh and Liz from Bloody Date Night !

Episode 154 - The Human Centipede (First Sequence)

WARNING: this episode might be the most R-rated yet! Why? Because we finally watched the one movie Krissy said she would NEVER watch for the podcast - The Human Centipede!
