Reviewing only the finest films in the history of cinema. And robots, too.
Watch out for killer robots, because Runaway (1984) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the DVD cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Jeff “Rich Lather” Tatarek.
Review in a Nutshell: One part police procedural, one part science fiction thriller, Runaway (1984) is a squarely average film buoyed up by some solid production design and an unnerving performance by Gene Simmons as the villainous mad scientist.
Tom and I are back with a questionable series that nobody should watch, not even as a gag, as we take a long, hard (phrasing!) look at KamiKatsu – Working for God in a Godless World, a 2023 TV anime that combines absolute production collapse with a cast of thoroughly detestable characters. I scream endlessly to the Heavens: who is this for?
Practice some basic information security, because The Net (1995) is (probably not) The Greatest Movie EVER!

Review in a Nutshell: A techno-thriller that was clearly written by people who don’t understand people or computers, The Net (1995) has not aged well, and it serves better as a time capsule of early Internet anxieties than as a compelling action film.
Hold on to your serum papers, because Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone (1983) is (probably not) the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the DVD cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring the triumphant return of Jeff “Rich Lather” Tatarek.
Review in a Nutshell: A film that attempts to cash in on the Star Wars, Mad Max, and Eighties 3D crazes, respectively, Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone (1983) is ultimately less than the sum of its parts despite good casting and strong production design.
Keep your vaccines up to date, because Antiviral (2012) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the DVD cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Gerard from Canada, aka “Ink”.
Review in a Nutshell: A body horror film with an emphasis on the body, Antiviral (2012) is a movie that makes the viewer feel good to feel bad.
Observe the proper safety protocols, because My Bloody Valentine (1981) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Kyle “ChibiUFO” Foster.
Review in a Nutshell: Savaged by critics as derivative and derogatory when first released, My Bloody Valentine (1981) is a gem among the slasher subgenre for its attention to detail, strong production design, sympathetic characters and gruesome gore effects.
Watch out for dark-cloaked killers, because The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (1970) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the title or the movie poster above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Zoe from the Internet.
Review in a Nutshell: The debut film of Dario Argento, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (1970) is a stylish nod to Hitchcock’s suspense films with a sleazy Italian giallo twist. Come for the murder, stay for the social commentary.
I’ll buy that for a dollar, and RoboCop (1987) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Tom “finalfuryk” Pandich and Daryl Surat of AnimeWorldOrder.
Review in a Nutshell: Grim, blunt and flaunting an acidic sense of humor, few films have captured the cruelty and egotism of American culture like RoboCop (1987). Ignore its lessons at your own peril.
Hold on to your 12-sided dice, because Cloak & Dagger (1984) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the title or the DVD cover above to download our review of the film, featuring Xan of the Spiraken Review Podcast.
Review in a Nutshell: A strangely dark children’s spy-adventure film that is steeped in unexamined Cold War politics, Cloak & Dagger (1984) is a historical oddity buoyed up by strong performances by lead actors Henry Thomas and Dabney Coleman.
Watch out for cults and conspiracies, because Brotherhood of the Wolf (2001) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Zoe from the Internet.
Review in a Nutshell: Visually opulent, narratively over-stuffed, and full of questionable politics, Brotherhood of the Wolf (2001) blends a dozen different genres into a single action film, sometimes succeeding and sometimes stumbling along the way.
