This sequel to our Patreon exclusive episode was released a whopping SIX YEARS after the original, seeing the return of Fred Ward and Michael Gross, but notably not Kevin Bacon.

Joined by a new, forgettable partner, Ward begins to realize that the grab...

Like Super Mario Bros from July, this is one of the movies that inspired Derrick to start the podcast back in 2022, so what better time to discuss it than the day after its 29th anniversary? Johnny Lee Miller stars as a cool little hacker kid, Zero Cool, all growed up into a cool hacker teen, Crash Override. After being barred from using the internet because of crimes he committed, he turns 18, im...

Dolph Lundgren stars in this forgotten gem from the early 90s, directed by Craig R Baxley, the director of one of our favorite films so far, Stone Cold! This is basically a riff on Stone Cold with 100% less Nazi bikers and 100% more drug-dealing aliens, stealing heroin and hunting down people to extract their endorphins for a rare drug coveted by his people. Lundgren is a gruff detective who plays...

Against our better judgment, we are going back in time to take a look at Disney's controversial classic about how black people loved being slaves and sang songs with little white kids and magical animated woodland creatures! Our friend, and Disney expert, Vern will be joining us for this one and it's guaranteed to be a good time with a horrendous film. Check out our Patreon for only $3 per month a...

Tying to our episode on E.T., Henry Thomas also stars in this 80s flick alongside the recently passed Dabny Coleman. A young boy and his imaginary friend end up on the run while in possession of a top-secret government spy gadget. Espionage, clandestine activities and covert actions abound in this 80s classic that Derrick has remastered on 4K... for some reason. Get our Patreon for only $3 at patr...

Remember when we talked about Dutch last November? This is a lot like that but less funny and more racist because it stars Chevy Chase and Johnathan Taylor Thomas! JTT refuses to accept his mom's new boyfriend despite Chase's efforts to win his respect. So this little bastard forces him to join a Boy Scout-esque group with an offensive name in an effort to crush his spirit. Meanwhile, a disgruntle...

We kick off shitbird month with a movie about "teenagers" with attitude that gain superpowers and have to fight a galactic boogerman named Ivan Ooze with the assistance of "Ninjetti" powers bestowed upon them by a mostly naked sexy lady from another planet. Along the way they fight mini-boogermen, talking birds, skeletons, rock monsters and, of course, they have to use their gross CG robots to fig...

Our friend Brandon from Music Box joined us to discuss this wonderful travesty, which is one of the movies that inspired Derrick to start Bad Movies Worse People back in 2022! It's bizarre, cheesy, completely unrelated to the source material and we kinda love it. The late great Bob Hoskins and Dennis Hopper star in this one alongside John Leguizamo and Samantha Mathis with Fisher Stevens (not doin...

A beloved 80's comedy starring and directed by Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas, this one has been requested or suggested by people since Derrick first started talking about doing a movie podcast. This was one case where Jack got to say "I have it on blu-ray" so the gang got together to crack some cold beers and watch some Canadians fumble their way through a beer-soaked adventure co-starring the grea...
