Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Tom “finalfuryk” Pandich.
Review in a Nutshell: A shameless rip-off of the 1976 King Kong remake, The Mighty Peking Man (1977) falls into all of the familiar pit-traps of the typical “jungle adventure” film with the added hilarity of a man in a particularly silly ape costume.
Hold on to your ill-gotten gains, because Bound (1996) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Zoe from the Internet.
Review in a Nutshell: The directorial debut of the Wachowskis, Bound (1996) is a taut and economical neo-noir crime thriller with great performances, strong queer representation, and a surprisingly acidic sense of humor.
Hold on to your WWII era hostages, because Fantasy Mission Force (1983) is the Greatest Movie EVER?
Click on the movie title or the bootleg DVD cover above to download our review of the film, featuring Daryl Surat of AnimeWorldOrder.
Review in a Nutshell: The very existence of this utterly baffling martial arts / crime caper / historical / ghost story / musical is an affront to the concept of a just and rational universe. Watch it (at your own peril)!
Hold on to your ancestral daisho, because The Challenge (1982) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring the Internet’s Oli “ShinInvidNinja” Bulmer.
Review in a Nutshell: A pulpy action film with an unusual amount of talent behind it, The Challenge (1982) is ultimately more violent and ambivalent and less Orientalist than other examples of “gaijin-sploitation” from the same time period.
Hold on to your humanity, because Colossus: The Forbin Project is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the title or the movie poster above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host “Celebrity Translator” Neil Nadelman.
Review in a Nutshell: Sharp, stylish, and perfectly paced, Colossus: The Forbin Project is a science fiction thriller from 1970 that feels all too relevant in our modern surveillance state.
Don’t bargain with the Devil, because Phantom of the Paradise is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the Blu-ray cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Matt “St. Mort” Kelly of Horror Movie Night.
Review in a Nutshell: A bizarre mash-up of Faust, The Phantom of the Opera, and The Picture of Dorian Gray, Phantom of the Paradise is a rock opera horror comedy that brims with brilliant visuals, outstanding songs, scathing satire and surprisingly deep and nuanced themes about power and the corruption of the creative arts.
Plot out your nefarious deeds, because The Killing (1956) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie title or the DVD cover above to download our review of the film, featuring M.O.M., the Mistress of Malapropisms.
Review in a Nutshell: A late period film noir crime caper directed by Stanley Kubrick before he went full art monster, The Killing (1956) is a stylish and suspenseful heist flick featuring a strong cast of character actors that is well worth a watch or two.
Fire up your radio watch, because Dick Tracy is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the Bluray cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Katherin the Great.
Review in a Nutshell: Top notch special effects make-up and innovative production design can’t salvage a film whose narrative is muddled and murky and whose tone varies wildly from scene to scene. Disney’s answer to Batman (1989), Dick Tracy is more interesting as a cultural artifact than as pleasant viewing experience.
Hold onto your windsurfing boards, because The Last Shark is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Phillip (formerly known as Eeeper of Eeeper’s Choice).
Review in a Nutshell: A surprisingly compelling and emotionally gritty Italian creature feature exploitation film, The Last Shark is much more entertaining that it has any right to be considering the plot is a direct rip-off of Jaws and Jaws II.
There goes your childhood, because Who Framed Roger Rabbit is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring M.O.M., the Mistress of Malapropisms.
Review in a Nutshell: A genuine oddity, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is a seamless mixture of live-action and animation in service to a Neo-Noir plot featuring conspiracy, blackmail, adultery, and gruesome, gruesome murder…all in a film ostensibly aimed at children. Seriously, folks, who was this movie for?
