We venture back into the mad world of erotic thrillers with the
dreadfully dull Madonna sex vehicle Body of Evidence! We're talking the film's
insistence on dreary courtroom scenes over nudity and intercourse, the
hilariously buttoned up depictions of kinky sex, shagging people to death and
beaucoup cocaine usage along the way!

Episode 69 - Event Horizon
In space, no one can hear you explain the plot of this film.
You wanted it, you got it! As voted for by the fans, the
dubious honour of this year's Halloween special goes to 1997's Event Horizon!
We're talking professor Sam Neill's Exposition 101 class, the blatant
cherry-picking from other/ better horror films, having to root for the film's
cast of unlikable characters, and we somehow end up discussing English
footballer Michael Owen and the fact he's only seen eight films in his
lifetime.

Episode 68 - Johnny Mnemonic
Narrow the bandwidth, go low-rent! We're jackin' in to the
campy 1995 tech thriller Johnny Mnemonic to talk about a future where sideburns
don't exist, the internet is a place you can visit and USB sticks seemingly
haven't been invented.
Also: more dated 90s tech speak, Henry Rollins' acting inability
and the John Wick crossover you never knew you didn't want!

Episode 67 - On Deadly Ground
We're going green this episode with the eco-friendly ego
trip of Comrade Seagal's directorial debut: 1994's On Deadly Ground! We talk
its heavy-handed environmentalism, Michael Caine's incredibly wobbly
"American" accent and unlock the mystery behind one of Pulp Fiction's
greatest mysteries in the process (yes, really!)
Also, Seagal behind the scenes and Vid Neg Literary Corner
returns, as Dan reads excerpts from the alt-right, anti-immigrant Deep State
novel penned by the man himself!

Episode 66 - Ed
We're back, stepping up to the plate to take on the
absolutely criminal, no-joke baseball comedy ED! We're talking director Bill
Couterie's background in socio-political war documentaries, the film's obsession
with farting, shitting and other bodily functions, the strange placement of
race, masturbation and gay panic jokes in this supposed kids' film and a theory
that this whole mess actually takes place in an Inception-style dreamscape!

Episode 65 - Godzilla
In this episode, we're rampaging all over Roland Emmerich's
snooze-fest monster remake, it's 1998's Godzilla! We touch on the film's
terrible soundtrack, the total lack of star power, Matthew
Broderick-as-leading-man (nope), and the laughable idea that a 300 foot lizard
could go missing.
Also, irritating comic relief from EVERYONE, and we get
flummoxed by the fact no one in New York seems to be all that bothered by a
marauding, nuclear-enhanced monster.

Episode 64 - Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot
Calling all cars! We're back to talk through one of 1992's
most infamous shockers and Sylvester Stallone's self-appointed worst film, it's
the all-round Oedipal nightmare Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot.
First at scene of the crime, we're discussing the highly
disobedient mother and her ever-increasing rap sheet, the creepiest line we've
ever heard on the show, one of the crappiest bad guys in film history, and the
story of how Arnie trolled Stallone into signing up to be in this whole mess of
a non-movie.
Also: an IMDB review reveals that the film's screenwriter
didn't even follow his own rules when he penned the script, and we reveal a
massive cinema stinker for the next episode!
