"Get outta here, you nosey little pervert, or I'm gonna slap you silly!" After nearly a year away we are delighted to be back with a whole bunch of new episodes starting with this Christmas gem. Yes, it’s the 90’s but 80
“The problem is, Jessie... I don't believe in Santa Claus anymore.” Ho-Ho-Ho. This week we are looking at a film we have debated doing every Christmas and that film is 1986’s Prancer. Starring the wonderful Sam Elliott,
“You're the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time.” This episode we catch up with John McClane as he goes to pick his wife up from the airport at Christmas and well, you know the drill. With a slight decade brea
“Fine. I'm gone. It's done. And you can go back to doing whatever you want to do, with whoever you want to do it, and whatever orifice you want to do it in.” This episode we go to a film that neither of us had ever seen
“They look like big, good, strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were.” This episode we journey through the mythical land of Fantasia and beyond with Bastian, Atreyu and a whole collection of quirky
“There's something out there. That... that witch in the cellar is only part of it. It lives... out in those woods, in the dark... something... something that's come back from the dead.” Happy Halloween! This episode we a
“I... I swallowed my chewing tobacco.” As we approach halloween we decided to take a look at 1986’s Critters. This film with numerous Gremlins comparisons terrorised one of us when watching it on video back in the day bu
“Why don't we go lay on the bed and I'll fill you in?” This film was suggested to us by a long time listener and we have finally got round to it after our sequels tour. So, this episode we get to both watch an 80’s film
"No, I know; you did send me back to the future. But I'm back - I'm back from the future." This episode we return to a set of films that we hold dear, the Back to the Future Trilogy. Once again we find ourselves in Hill
"I'm surprised you haven't heard of me, I got a bad reputation, like sometimes I just go nuts like now ha ha!" This week we take a jaunt to 1989 to see what trouble Riggs and Murtaugh are going to get themselves into. As
“I've always believed that the mind is the best weapon.” This episode we go back to the world of Rambo to see what happens next. Is this as good as the first film and will we enjoy it as much? To hear our thoughts on Fir
“You know... When MY father died, I spent a lot of time thinking I hadn't been such a great son. It seemed to me like I could have listened a little more, spent a little more time with him together... I felt so guilty, y
“This is it, Jennifer: your big break in TV.” This week we return to Elm Street for the third installment of the long running horror franchise and watch Freddy spout one-liners as he kills some more unfortunate victims.
“You dolt! Do you think my son would be that stupid? That he would bring my diary all the way back here?” This week we spend time with our old friend Indiana Jones and this time his father is along for the ride too. This
“You underestimate the power of the Dark Side. If you will not fight, then you will meet your destiny.” Not since episode 33 have we been to a galaxy far, far away so it was about time we caught up with Luke, Leia, Han a
“I propose you take your nose out of MY business, go back to the mayor's office, and put it where it usually is.” This week we visit our old friends from the Police Academy in the first of many sequels that will follow.
