Pet Semetary (1989) [PJ's Never Seen]

Not quite Halloween time but screw it we're watching some horror anyway. This week PJ watched the original "Pet Semetary" for the first time! People consider this a classic but it's time to see if it's Hustle Approved. Other than the movie we also discuss "hip young lingo," semi trucks, "fur babies," video games, suppositories, Halloweentown and we do a lot of bad accents. We hope you enjoy the show!

For the fourth time now we've gone to the Patreon list and for the second time now it's a movie I actually already owned!

The Long Kiss Goodnight (Brent & PJ Haven't Seen)

This has been an often requested movie and now we both get to see it for the first time. Will The Last Kiss Goodnight be as hype as everyone says or will we get to make some more people mad?

Game of Death (2010)

Now that all the celebrating is behind us it's time to get this third year of the show going strong and this movie feels like a classic HVH pick. We like to do big movies and ones you all know but we LOVE to do the ones that no one has heard of and that's what we have here! Made during the period where Wesley Snipes was machine gunning movies to the DVD racks, "Game of Death" has all the hallmarks of straight to video garbage. We just hope it's fun garbage. Also on the show, we talk about Aqua T...

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (PJ's Never Seen)

The hype levels are high this week as we get back to Star Wars! PJ liked Episode 1, so will the trend continue upward or will he go back to hating these movies? There is one bit of this movie that gets talked about in GREAT detail but other than that we discuss Flubber, why we shouldn't have the force, being whipped, the Michael Jackson documentary, Lion King and Dumbo and PJ starts off the show with another one of his intermissions. We had WAY too much fun talking about this movie so we hope yo...

One more episode before the big one double 0 and PJ picked yet another grindhouse movie for us to watch but this time it's an actual one from 1975!

Hobo With A Shotgun (Patreon Pick #2)

It's time to dig into the Patreon bag once again and this time we're given Hobo With A Shotgun to review from the homie Mike Bagford! Brent actually owns this movie so it wont be another From Justin To Kelly situation! This movie is wild and has a lot to talk about but outside of the flick, we also talk about Technicolor, discuss crazy Canadians, the consequences of spitting on people, "tauntauns," old cartoons and the Hustlers show just how sick they are by laughing at extreme violence in this ...

The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring (Brent & PJ Haven't Seen)

Oh it's a big episode this week and unlike Star Wars, this is a movie that neither hosts have seen before. Will this be a similar scenario as that? What happens when Brent can't help guide PJ or himself through this three hour movie? There really weren't a lot of tangents this week but there was a lot of questions and confusion. Brent says it early on in the episode, "Struggle is the word of the day..." This is gonna be fun. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube Music by: Trade V...

From Justin To Kelly - (Patreon Pick #1)

Before we get back to doing our usual random movies out of the bag, we have to do our first movie given to us by one of our Patreon backers. For this inaugural pick we were gifted "From Justin To Kelly" from Brendan and Nathan from the What Were They Thinking Podcast. This movie was a notorious bomb from 2003 that we don't think anyone saw but we have to do what many others couldn't and endure this pain because we do it for you! When we weren't slowly dying inside we also talked about Disney Cha...

Blackkklansman

It's the final episode of the Black History Marathon and we get to finally talk about Spike Lee's latest film, Blackkklansman. As we figured, this is the longest episode of the show to date and it gets real a lot this week. This one had us really going deep into the film and exploring themes that we deal with on a day to day basis. PJ and The Spirit get into several heated debates about problems with religion, social racism and the ending of the film. We still have some fun though as we also tal...

Original Gangstas

As the Black History Marathon comes near it's end we had to finally get this one in! Original Gangstas puts 70's era greats against the gangs of the 90's and the results are movie magic! Next weeks movie is gonna be a lot more serious in tone so we had to have some more fun this week to prepare. Of course other things are discussed, such as PJ's experience with guns and almost shooting Brent with a BB gun, our negative experiences with animals and what we would do if Black people were actually g...

She's Gotta Have It (1986) [Brent's Never Seen]

Unfortunately PJ couldn't record for this weeks episode so I conjured up The Spirit and we talked all about Spike Lee's first feature film, "She's Gotta Have It." I had never seen this before but she had and she has a lot to day about it this episode and as usual for this month serious topics get discussed. We also talk about the Netflix remake of this movie, Jordan shoes, church, sexuality and The Spirit has some words to say about Do The Right Thing that she didn't get a chance to put out ther...

Hollywood Shuffle

In 1987 it was a different landscape for Black actors trying to make it big in Hollywood and this week's movie, "Hollywood Shuffle" shows the struggles of trying to get in that door but with a comedic spin. Oh yes it's still Black History Month and we finally get to talk about a Robert Townsend movie, his first even! If you haven't noticed yet, this is the longest episode so far and it's because other than the movie we also get into discussions about film making, unnecessary labeling, racist clo...

In The Heat Of The Night (Brent & PJ Haven't Seen)

For Black History Month, this time we decided to watch a flick many people consider to be an absolute classic.

Do The Right Thing

Black History Month has started so all this month AND next month it's gonna be all black movies here on HVH and we are starting with a big one. Do The Right Thing is Spike Lee's third theatrical film and most will agree, one of his absolute best. This movie really got us talking and mainly about the movie this week! We do talk about a few other things like the Black National Anthem, annoying voices, racism, gentrification, parenting, Super Chefs and Brent has another fun story from his youth. Be...

PJ is out this week so The Spirit stepped up and even picked a movie to watch.

Other than the movie, was also talk about Netflix cracking down on shared user accounts, favorite Sandra Bullock movies, Aquaman and stupid people doing stupid challenges.

Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie (PJ's Never Seen)

MST3K is Brent's favorite TV show but somehow for over ten years PJ has avoided watching it, that ends today, In another installment of the PJ's Never Seen series, he finally has to sit down and watch what may be one of the biggest inspirations for this very podcast! This episode is jam packed with Brent getting his nerd on and trying to teach P all about the show so there's way less tangents than usual. Not to say there aren't any because you also get to hear The Spirit go on a rant about R. Ke...

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (PJ's Never Seen)

It's a new year and we've got unfinished business. It's about time PJ got back to his journey through the Star Wars saga and of course he hasn't seen this before.

Also in this episode we talk about high grossing movies, the Star Wars Episode 1 Racer arcade game, Spirit looks at pics of Jason Momoa, we reminisce about old commercials and The Spirit has beef with Brent over S...
