The Gen X Files

To end our Gene Simmons, Greatest Villain of the '80s? month, we swing that pendulum so far back from the brilliance that was Never Too Young to Die, that we land firmly in the camp of Gene Simmons is a terrible actor...

We can't believe we're saying this, but this movie may be the best move of our Gene Simmons: Ultimate '80s Villain? month. The brainchild of Steven Paul, the movie stars John Stamos, Vanity, Peter Kwong, George Lazenby...

Is Gene Simmons the greatest '80s villain? We try to find out with Gene's first movie, Runaway, a film set in the 'future' where domestic robots can be easily manipulated by nefarious people. Written and directed by...

Join your ol' Stepdads as we discuss how incredible the King adaptations are, the movies and TV we've been watching, and whether or not Rockstar screwed the ol' pooch with how they've been handling GTA IV.

To close out our Prime King month, we're covering the number 1 movie on IMDB: The Shawshank Redemption. A labor of love from Frank Darabont, who put his budding career on the line to get the movie made, the movie...

In this episode, we cover perhaps the second greatest Stephen King adaptation, Misery! Adapted by Oscar winner William Goldman, directed by Rob Reiner, and starring James Caan, Kathy Bates, Richard Farnsworth, Frances...

For our first entry into our Prime King month, we present: The Shining. Yes, we know that King wasn't a fan of the movie (and he's since softened on it), but it's a damn good movie. From Stanley Kubrick, starring Jack...

Join your ol' Stepdads as we wrap up the Doubledoo-Switcheroo movies from this month, proving that a broken clock is right at least twice a day. We also discuss some new movies, the TV shows we've been binging, and some...

To close out our Doubledoo-Switcheroo month, we cover the George Burns vehicle 18 Again!, that barely features George Burns. Also starring Charlie Schlatter, Tony Roberts, Anita Morris, and Red Buttons. Directed by Paul...

This week, we have the pleasure of watching a good body-switching movie: Vice Versa, starring Judge Reinhold, Fred Savage, Corrine Bohrer, and Swoosie Kurtz. Written by Dick Clement and Ian Le Fresnais with direction...

Well, I guess after a good movie, we had to have a bad one. This week we're covering Like Father Like Son, starring Dudley Moore (who really, really tries in this movie), Kirk Cameron, Margaret Colin, Catherine Hicks...

Frist up in our Doubledoo-Switcheroo month, we're starting with the grandmama of the body switching movies, Freaky Friday. Starring Barbara Harris, Jodie Foster, John Astin, Mark McClure, and Sparky Marcus. It's way...

Join your ol' Stepdads as we discuss awful movies and try to prove that the three movies we watched this month were the worst movies or if there are movies that are worse. Spoiler alert: there isn't. We also discuss...

You know, after The Garbage Pail Kids Movie and Mac and Me, we really thought that The Wizard was going to be the best of the month and boy, oh boy, were we wrong. A 90 minute commercial for Nintendo that can't even do...

We didn't think something could be worse than The Garbage Pail Kids Movie, but boy howdy were we wrong. No complaints about the cast; they did what they could with a script (?), lazy direction, and a producer that...
