Give Me Back My Action&Horror Movies

Cutie Honey - Pete Thinks It’s Action

From the director Neon Genesis Evangelion and Shin Godzilla, Hideaki Anno brings a classic anime to life with Cutie Honey. The argument during the show was if this is an action movie or not. Charlie makes a good argument that this is comedy adventure rather than action, but the kill count is just as high Missing in Action, if not more. With guns, sword fights and giant explosions how can this NOT be an action movie regardless of its absurdity. I had to pull in my Good Beer Bad Movie Night co-host Troy to help make my argument, but opinions couldn’t be more different and the episode benefits from the dissonance. No matter what side of the fence you’re on, this is a banger of an episode.

Raw - Horror Pete’s Pick Month

Greetings, listeners.

Our Grand Evil Overlord and Nate (I need to come up with a cooler name for Nate than “Nate.” Boooring) foolishly turn the reigns of the podcast over to me 'Pete' for the month of February. To what nonsense will I subject their unprepared brains? To start off, I felt like I needed to class this joint up and introduce an award-winning Indie film from France called Raw. Arguably (and we did) more of a coming of age than horror, Raw is powerful, beautiful and horrifying. Despite it’s slow pace, Raw is a strong recommend if you’re looking for something different from the mainstream horror.

Missing In Action - Anniversary Q&A Part 2

In a world where sequels run rampant, three knuckleheads couldn’t contain themselves to make a nice and casual anniversary episode. Why is it whenever there’s a mountain of bodies to count it’s always these three? Can they not go one anniversary episode without death and destruction in their wake? What the hell is even happening in Missing in Action?!!!

Tune in for the explosive finale to our two year anniversary Q&A episode! As always a huge thank you to everyone that’s ever gave us a chance, we are beyond humble for all the support you've given us. We hope you enjoy these two-parter episodes, and look forward to bringing you another year of carnage and laughter!

Stick around after the credits for Nick Fury recruiting us at the end of the episode. Oh wait… I mean the bloopers.

Missing in Action - Anniversary Q&A Part 1

Well...we've made it another year apparently, what started out as just a fun hobby has now turned into a labor of love. Alot has changed in two years but somehow we've managed to keep pushing forward and growing as a podcast and building a fantastic community around us. So this week we reached out to you the fans and gave you the opportunity to ask us anything at all while we review the Chuck Norris classic 'Missing in Action'. As it turns out it was way too much to fit into one episode so for our second anniversary we give you our very first two part episode. 

 

We hope you all enjoy the chaos that ensues and make sure to come back and check out the second part of our Q&A Special Anniversary Episode!!!

Demon Knight - Horror - Charlie’s Birthday Pick

For Charlie's final birthday pick he stayed on the nostalgia path and picked a horror movie that he had a strong connection to....'Tales From the Crypt: Demon Knight'. Growing up watching the TV series and Saturday morning cartoon as an early teen meant that when a full length feature film was announced that there was no way Charlie wasn't going to watch it. We also find out a shocking revelation from Nate concerning this movie as well!

So hit that play button Boils and Ghouls to get transported back to when practical effects were king and Billy Zane was the smoothest, coolest horror movie villain of the 90s! 

Frights! Camera! Hacktion!!!!! HEHEHEHEHHAAAA!!!!!

Masters of the Universe - Action - Charlie’s Birthday Pick

It's that time of year again, Charlie's birthday has rolled back around and this year and he brought what is possibly the pinnacle of his childhood action movie favorites..... Masters of the Universe!!! While this podcast always has a foot in the nostalgia pool this episode the guys jump off the high dive into pure unadulterated wholesome nostalgia. Pete and Nate were definitely not surprised for the wave of love Charlie has for this live action adaptation of his hero He-Man. They were however caught a little off guard (as was Charlie) at how strong that wave actually is and how its still a cultural and personal icon for him. We even come up with our own He-man characters for each other and ourselves!

So please take a trip to our past and enjoy as we cover Masters of the Universe.....Good Journey!!!!!

Puppet Master 2 - Horror

The gang is all here!

For the first time ever the entire party was able to watch a movie together. A pact was made many months ago to cover Puppet Master 2 the next time we were altogether. Covid, random illnesses, and even Southwest wasn’t going to stop this from happening!.... Though some had succeeded in the past. Tune in to hear all about the misfortunes and triumphs to finally make this happen!

Bad Boys 2 - Action

It was bound to happen...this is it, our first Michael Bay movie. But dammit what better way to ring in the New Year than with Bad Boys 2 because it is a helluva ride. In fact we ride together.....we die together.... Bad Boys for life. 

 

Charlie and Nate wanted a fun sequel to continue their theme and thought what better one than the ultimate if not the best examples of a buddy cop actioner. So listen along as the guys strap in for an absolute wild ride with more car chases, explosions, bullets, and flat out hilarious dialogue than one movie has the right to have!!

 

Take a drink every time the fellas say, “Mike Lowery” and be prepared..(don't listen to Nate...you will die)

*GMBMAHM and associates are not responsible for Nate*

Childs Play 2 - Horror

Nate wanted a doll for Christmas this year and Charlie and Pete pulled through for the little lad. Only problem was it was it has some defective hardware and went on a Homicidal rampage…again…Child’s Play is a franchise that is 7 movies and 2 seasons deep. It’s hard to believe Chucky has spawned so much over the years, but it’s the first sequel where he truly develops his personality and makes his mark on the horror world. Listen as the fellas talk about their fond memories of everyone’s favorite murderous doll!

Batman Returns - Action Christmas Special Redemption

It had to be done...after the Al Leong score Nate gave Die Hard 2 Charlie couldn't let that be our Christmas special legacy for the second year. Charlie had to do something drastic, something he never expected he'd have to do especially right before Christmas.

What did he do you ask?     

Well...you'll have to listen to the episode to find out!

Hope you all enjoy our impromptu Christmas Special Episode....Nate's Road to Redemption!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!!!!
