While there are new movies that are fun and enjoyable, they just don‘t have the same impact as the Action and Horror Movies we remember as kids/teenagers. So we figured we were not alone in our nostalgia and created a podcast to entertain people who feel the same as us. We will talk about what made certain movies so memorable. We will talk about a movie so cheesy but still makes us smile. We will share a memory of watching a movie for the first time.

Dead Snow 2 is a wild ride not without it's flaws. The kills and gore rival Turbo Kid in ridiculousness and absurdity. With it's twist on the modern day vision of zombies, this is a must see film for your next drinking night with your friends. Don't listen to Charlie, this one is a whole lotta fun.

While "I Come in Peace" (aka Dark Angel) isn't a classic in the usual sense, it's certainly a must see for a pizza and beer night with your movie friends. Literally this is a buddy cop movie with drug dealing space aliens as the antagonist and it's as absurd as it sounds. A shirtless Dolph Lundgren doesn't hurt either. It's definitely a strong recommend for your next alcohol fueled movie night.

Sorry folks. We had plans to cover a trilogy of movies this week but instead sat through a tire fire that almost drove the show off a cliff. It was still a fun conversation and we regret nothing except for the fact that we lost nearly four hours of our lives watching one of the worst trilogies ever put to celluloid. Under no circumstances should you watch all three Feast movies, not even out of morbid curiosity. You've been warned. Please just listen to the show and save your time and sanity. Eff this trilogy...or as Charlie said in the group chat "Triple eff these movies"!!!!!

Cliffhanger was a first time watch for Nate and Pete and they were honestly a little disappointed they missed this on the big screen. To be fair, the plot premise on the surface is lacking but the film is surprisingly exciting. Is it a Die Hard clone, of course it is. The film doesn't try to hide that fact but still, it's a lot of fun for it's absurd physics defying action sequences. If you don't take it too seriously you're sure to have a good time with this wonderful popcorn film.

OMG! Where has this movie been all my life??? Well Charlie saw it but the dynamic dingos, Nate and Pete, had never been graced with the glory of the Wishmaster. Thank goodness that's been corrected and we couldn't be happier that it's now part of our lives. Is it a great film? Not really. Is it entertaining AF? You betcha. If you haven't, go see this right now. Go on now. Go to Tubi. Watch it. I'm warning you. I will turn this car around!!!

Executive Decision has a lot of things going for it, star-studded cast, impressive miniatures and effects, stunning cinematography, excellent action and a story that is all too real. So why isn't it recognized as one of the great action movies of the 90s? Is it too long? Is Steven Segal an ass? Is Nate a nut job? Tune in as we try to explore those and other questions in this episode.
P.S. I'm pretty sure we all know the answer to that last question.

This week Nate insisted we cover The Crow for Halloween even though Ernest Scared Stupid also takes place on All Hallows Eve and is way more of a horror movie. But good news, Troy also dropped in for this big screen adaptation of the classic action/revenge comic book. Strap in folks. This one's a ride for sure.

Ernest Scared Stupid is without a doubt easy to love on every level. Is it dumb? Yes. Is it childish? Of course. Are there plot holes? Sure.
But even with all it's "faults" it's quite possibly the perfect gateway movie to get young cinephiles into the horror genre. Jim Varney as Ernest P. Worrell is a delightful living Loony Tune character, the world lost one of the good ones too soon and we miss him dearly. Do yourself a favor and start making this film a family holiday tradition.
Happy Halloween

Starting in 1958, British movie studio Hammer rolled the dice and put forth their best effort in reviving the classic characters Dracula, Frankenstein and the Mummy for a new generation. Horror of Dracula was their first film and they knocked it out of the park. With jaw-dropping sets, buxom babes, sweeping musical scores and legendary performances from the likes of Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Hammer Studios definitely hit the floor running with a true classic catapulting our favorite monsters back in to the spotlight.

This week's Spooky Month episode wasn't very difficult for Charlie to pick. Because once again he was able to blend Action and Horror with the help of one of his favorite directors take on vampire movies with... John Carpenter's Vampires.
Join the guys as they dive into 90s era Carpenter and find out just how much Charlie loves this particular time of Carpenters career much to Pete's chagrin.
