B Movie Breakdown

This week we bring you one of the oddest entries in Wes Craven’s filmography, 1991’s The People Under The Stairs. Continuing our month of horror, we once again have friend of the show and frequent guest, Cody, on to discuss the misadventures of Fool and his super weird run in with Mommy and Daddy. This film has that great level of suspense and horror we expect from Wes Craven with a nice dash of b...

What better way to kick off our full month of horror movies than with a film from the guy who directed The Exorcist. In 1990’s The Guardian, a young couple with a newborn baby who don’t realize that the nanny they hired is a magical nymph who sacrifices infants to an evil tree. I mean do we really have to tell you anymore than that?

Bigfoot The Movie. If you see this title scrolling through Amazon Prime Video and skip it, you will be making one of the biggest mistakes of your life. You would also be missing out on one of the Top 3 Bigfoot movies of all time. Jared Show and the rest of the gang over at JS Pictures have something special on their hands with this one and we hope that our show can help spread the word on their su...

Has anyone ACTUALLY seen this movie? Seriously. After watching the first one we came to learn that pretty much anyone who knew about or had seen the first film, had no idea there was ever a sequel. And if they did know there was some sort of sequel, they sure as hell never watched it and good for them. You know why? Because why watch a movie that builds over 90 minutes for it to not show you the c...

An accident puts the consciousness of Coleman, an elderly dream researcher, into the body of Bobby, a bratty teenager. The problem? Bobby prefers dreamworld limbo over his real life. Now Coleman, as Bobby, must figure out how to get his old body back before it is too late, not to mention the body of his wife whose consciousness is trapped in Bobby’s secret crush. Yes, this is a movie starring the...

This is a movie as perfect as it could get. For some movies the mold breaks after they are made. There could never be another. Not truly. Miami Connection is a film that excels at being amazing, terrible and sincere at the same time. If you like ninjas, blood, and over protective brothers, sit back and enjoy.

After watching Robot Jox last week, you know how pumped and invested we were in every aspect of the future political landscape it presented. So naturally, you can imagine how excited we were to watch it’s “sequel” Crash And Burn. What starts off as a political sci-fi film, quickly turns into a sci-fi thriller, and ultimately turns into a straight up horror film; all of which really had nothing to...

This episode we address an overlooked classic. A movie a head of its time yet wouldn’t be the same if it was made in any other era. In a podcast favorite setting, post apocalyptic Earth, two rival factions face off for dominance over contested territories. In a world where war is outlawed, the Confederation and the Market compete in giant robot battles to win their control. Robot Jox is an incredi...

This week it’s all about time as we take you to a house possessed by an evil clock. This week we take you to the year 1992. This week we take you to the sixth movie in the Amityville franchise, Amityville 1992: It’s About Time. Is this the horror version of the Room? Is it common to bring your boyfriend over to the house where you used to live with a previous boyfriend as he still lives there? Was...

For 150 episodes you’ve followed us through post apocalyptic futures, other dimensions, and hell itself. Now meet the Dungeonmaster and come with us on our journey through his varying dungeons. Conveniently, each dungeon serves as a crash course in topics and settings that this podcast loves to address. Super intelligent robots. Monster battles. Devil characters. It’s all here. So listen to us get...

In our goal to bring you more conversations and more content, we’ve gone through our secret archives to find conversations that would still be relevant today and/or act as time capsules, showing how we felt about specific topics at the times they were current. You’ll still get normal episodes every week, but once in a while you’ll get a bonus episode in between them. With our Thorn trilogy conclud...

This week we end our deep dive into the Thorn Trilogy of the Halloween series and have many of our lingering questions answered. Questions such as: Why is it called the Thorn Trilogy? Who is the man in black? What is his deal? Is Jamie ok? What have other members of the Strode family been to? What ever happened to little Tommy Doyle from the first Halloween? And why is there a ‘producer’s cut’ of...

Things get even weirder as we find out that Jaime can’t talk due to her extreme killer instincts that closed out part 4. She was also hospitalized after trying to kill her step-mom as well. Michael escaped his demise by floating down a river and being mended by a redneck living in a shack with a parrot. The Thorn Trilogy carries on in Halloween 5: The Revenge Of Michael Myers.

It’s been years since Haddonfield has been ravaged by Michael Meyers. This small Illinois town is again the focus of his attention, as Michael hunts for the niece he never knew he had. Laurie is dead and some moron transporting Michael to a different hospital (recovering from wounds he suffered at the hands of his arch nemesis, Dr. Loomis ten years earlier) drops the ball and mentions she is a thi...

It’s that time of year again, time to take a little trip to Summer camp. This year we decided to visit Camp Blackfoot and boy did it bring back some memories from our years at Summer camp as kids. Like when Jason Alexander had hair and when we decided to play a prank on the camp caretaker. Sadly, that prank ended up burning him alive, leaving him disfigured beyond belief, and sent him on a murdero...

This sucks but dinosaurs are never bad. Movies that pretend to have cowboys in them are. If only someone could let us in on the joke, it would make all the difference. As is, this movie is a return to misery. Enjoy!

Transformers: The Last Knight. The fifth in a series about robots, history and the indulgences of a man who never could resist beautiful women, crude jokes and explosions. You ever have so much sensory input and then try putting that experience into words? With the debris still settling, this is that conversation.

Tonight brings to a close our viewing of the Critterverse, a franchise nickname not given lightly. All four of these movies do the once rare feat of establishing a universe ripe with potential. While the first three movies focus primarily on Earth, this fourth movie takes us back to space where it all began, but also to the future. 52 years in the future! What is masterful about this movie is that...

We continue our journey through the Critterverse with the third film in the Critters franchise, aptly titled Critters 3. Not only does this film continue the story of the lovable Charlie, but it was also the feature film debut of Academy Award winner Leonardo DiCaprio. That’s right, a pre-Growing Pains little Leo helps Charlie take on the Critters this time around in a great installment to the ser...

We have finally decided to re-visit the Critterverse with a much anticipated look at Critters 2. This film is a rarity, where in the sequel is just as good, if not better than, the first film. This time around the Critters are back for the main course, which just so happens to be the entire town of Grover’s Bend. Little do the Crites know, the High Council is well aware of the eggs left on Earth;...

We told you if you leave them, we will watch them and that is just what we did! This week’s movie, These Final Hours, was suggested by fan of the show Jordan VanWormer via his iTunes review and what a great suggestion it was. Here at B Movie Breakdown we love us a good end of the world, apocalypse movie and this no exception. If you are interested, it is available on Netflix and is definitely wort...

This week on the podcast we revisit a modern day classic, 2011’s Manborg! Count Draculon and his HELL army seek to take over Earth during the HELL WARS. One final brave soldier attempts to take on the Count but is unsuccessful. Years later that same soldier is transformed into Manborg and activated in Mega-Death City. With the help of his new friends Justice, Mina, & #1 Man; Manborg must destroy C...

This week we watched the 1984 film The Ice Pirates and honestly it was kind of hard to write any sort of description for this episode. The film had a lot of great ideas that it just couldn’t execute, which made for a pretty boring movie. The poster made it look super cool and absurd in all the right ways, but it just fell flat. It also had a hard time making up it’s mind if it wanted to be serious...

Teen comedies were huge in the 80’s and most are considered classics to this day, but none were quite like The Last American Virgin from 1982. It’s like a cross between Porky’s, Fast Times At Ridgemont High, and Pretty In Pink, but with a really dark and depressing final 20 minutes. And unlike most of the fore mentioned films, no one in this one really learns any sort of lesson whatsoever. They ju...

This week we watched the WWE Studios film The Marine 5: Battleground starring some of our favorite WWE superstars; including The Miz, Maryse, Naomi, Health Slater, Curtis Axel, and Bo Dallas. We talked a lot about this film. We had a lot of laughs. We had our friend Cody join us for a special appearance. We had a great time recording an episode….then after about an hour and twenty minutes we reali...
