GBW Podcast

We stroll into 2024 with another slab of movies to talk about. Twenty-two of them, in fact. There's a whole lot of 2023 on hand as we discuss Yorgos Lanthimos' POOR THINGS, get "Gojira" with it in GODZILLA MINUS ONE (and more recent releases) but we also stick to our usual diet of oddities, revisits and movies you probably won't hear about on other podcasts. These include...

Happy Holidays from your friends at GBW as we bring you our last episode of 2023. We cover twenty movies this time including Chris finishing his year long journey into the world of JCVD, Matt Dillon and crew robbing pharmacies, a shirtless Leslie Nielsen being a complete jerk, a 90's VR martial arts movie that (surprise!) is no good, a moody Val Lewton production, Scorcese doing family drama,...

As we head towards the end of 2023 there's absolutely no chance you'll get a "best of" episode from us as we've been much too busy watching various oddities and exploitation flicks of yesteryear, Amongst the eighteen films covered this time we get a duo of Christmas horror, two completely different flicks starring an animal, a JCVD team-up that's not as cool as it cou...

Gobble gobble, motherfu... oops, wrong movie! This time out we discuss 20 movies including Eli Roth's festive slasher THANKSGIVING, a 50's noir tells us the dangers of picking up a hitcher, Josh discovers an unseen Lucio Fulci flick, JCVD travels through time, Flash is the saviour of the Universe, Alexander Payne returns with THE HOLDOVERS, we talk a duo of over-the-top craziness, voodoo...

This episode of GBW is brought to you by a righteous heavy metal soundtrack as we thrash our way through 19 movies. We learn that you really can have a chainsaw massacre anywhere, we watched a trio of completely different tropical island survival stories, Bobby Rhodes battles some gnarly DEMONS, 80's Jackie Chan fails to cross over to American shores, Chris got to see Wes Craven's master...

It's still October and we here at GBW are continuing our commitment to watch more horror movies than usual. This has both its upsides and definitely its downsides. Which you will learn all about. As promised last time out, we allowed Kenny Rogers to give us both some odd life lessons but we also watched nineteen other films including two "can't be much more different" retrospec...

As we head towards Halloween we decided to put 100% effort into watching horror films with a 44% return rate. Not bad. This time out we're talking nineteen movies including a hip hop flick only Cannon could be responsible for, Tobe Hooper visiting the carnival, a grown man in diapers, Rudy Ray Moore gettin' down once more, Burt being Burt, a duo of Shudder Originals with varying results,...

Beware the wrath of TLJ! If you try to run, he'll get you, especially if you're trying to take advantage of a obscure loophole law. This time out we have twenty films to discuss including a couple of disaster flicks, JCVD as a coke fueled knock off artist, we both finally scratched a classic off our "why haven't we seen this yet?" lists, Josh continues his Scorsese and Cha...

There's 18 movies on the agenda for this episode and, completely not on purpose, we ended up with a handful of them starring bigger name action icons. Apart from the various ass-kicking by established bad-asses we also talk a duo of "not-so-great" slasher flicks, visit the sleazy New York City of 1971, end up surprised  by a Will Ferrell movie, get two crazy efforts involving fetus...

This time out we have overwrought action heroes, a spiritual Bruce Lee and more assorted nuttiness. We cover 20 movies including a constantly yelling Reb Brown, a look at THE POPE'S EXORCIST, a good reason to not run across the desert, Pee-Wee being as charming as ever, a revisit to a now cult favourite 90's sea monster romp, a hopefully final visit to the cornfield, the outrageous BLOOD...

I heard you missed us, we're back! (Yes, that's a Van Halen reference). After a longer-than-expected hiatus we're back with twenty-one slabs o' movies including a look at current  box office darling BARBIE, an elderly Mae West being horny as all get out, a slasher revisit that makes us question our buying habits, Josh talks one of his all-time favourites, Gerard Butler is slowl...

This episode we talk twenty films including a couple of auteur directors and even a few un-savoury scumbags to boot. This time we look at Wes Anderson's ASTEROID CITY, a bunch of creatures romp their way across the screen, an indie Canadian dramedy makes us pine for the video store, Josh keeps up to date on a few franchises, a classic sci-fi gets its first viewing, Rutger Hauer isn't as...

What's as absurd as the title of this episode? A few of the 18 flicks that crossed our path since our last outing. This time we learn that sometimes re-visits are just as bad as the original one, Albert Pyun teams up with JCVD with better than expected results, a few series we've been picking at are concluded, stop motion gets the spotlight it deserves, Robert Culp isn't going to pu...

We've taken a break and now we are back with eighteen new movies that both make us happy to be film fans but also make us question the same thing. The 90's were a bad time for video game adaptations and we having shining proof of this, there's disaster in the air Gerard Butler style, vampire bats barely show up in NIGHTWING, a much loved horror anthology fails to impress, Peter O&ap...

This episode of GBW contains a bunch of trips to the theatre, a handful of revisits and even a rant on Andrew McCarthy. This time out we discuss 21 movies including a sports-themed TV thriller that fails to understand its most important themes (uh, sports?), a revisit to the original appearance of Ghostface, Lucio Fulci goes swords & sorcery, John Carpenter visits an evil church, RENFIELD and...

Have you ever wanted to kidnap a kid, tell them they're dead and convince them they're in Heaven? No? Well one of the 18 movies we're talking about this time does just that. We also watch some animals getting sweet revenge, Chris finally checks out a well-regarded 70's sorta slasher, a 70's TV movie delivers more thrills than expected, found footage meets super powers, Jal...

This episode we get down with some serial killing, rubbery creatures and a giant eyeball head?! Twenty flicks crossed our paths this time including Lamberto Bava doing giallo, JCVD going on an adventure that (of course!) ends with butt-kicking, Keanu Reeves proving he could act way back in the 80's, Anthony Michael Hall's bizarre vanity project, some graverobbing, Kevin Smith finishing h...

Maybe if we took a cue from one of our furry friends and snorted a bunch of power, some of the lesser films of the 18 we cover this time out might have turned out better. This time out Josh headed to the theatre to check out COCAINE BEAR, the dream team of JCVD and Sho Kosugi disappoints, Susan Anton gets ready for the Olympics, we look at Oscar nominee TRIANGLE OF SADNESS, a duo of assassins arri...

You know, after a hard day of fighting off ravenous fish, ghosts and serial killers there's nothing more that us here at GBW want to do than relaxing gymnastics! This time out we cover 19 films including Howie Mandel being raised by wolves, a buddy cop flick that hasn't aged particularly well, JCVD going to prison, Lou Ferrigno channeling a Poe(?) story, hungry piranhas, Gene Hackman coa...

Can you believe it? We're 200! To celebrate this occasion we've brought in a special guest: Uwe Boll. That's right, the legendary (in more ways than one) director sat down with us to discuss his return to filmmaking with the police thriller First Shift , educated us on how he independently made over thirty films, speaks on his favourite gangster movies, told us about a meeting with...

We're so hip to so many things. We're down with the sleaze, we dig the art deco, fringe jackets kick-ass and don't get us started on the splits! We have 22 movies to talk about this time including a look at Brandon Cronenberg's INFINITY POOL, a noir set in the snow, two teen girls hitchhiking across the wild frontier of 70's America, a girl gang who takes no guff, Japan&ap...

There is definitely nothing even close to a theme in the twenty films we're talking about this episode but there's some pleasant surprises, we still wonder who actually likes Count Yorga and there is one moment of pure hatred. Things are kicked off right with a DIE HARD clone that's pretty rad, we look at Steve McQueen's final film, Damien Chazelle brings the Hollywood excess i...

New year. Same us. Which isn't a bad thing as we offer up our takes on twenty-three films that cover almost every genre you can think of. There's disaster in the air with an exploding volcano, Johnny Cash plays a hard-boiled criminal, mutated sheep go on the attack, we talk Spielberg's love letter to film THE FABELMANS, Lou Ferrigno returns as a Greek god, we get ridiculous with 202...

There's a whole lot of ass-kicking going down this episode in amongst some tender drama and bowling ball boners. Yes, it's the off-beat mixture of movies you've come to expect from GBW - and we have 22 of them for you. We talk a handful of 2022 films (a couple which make our top tens), Charles Bronson and Nicholas Cage make an appearance, Michael Mann makes his directorial debut, Ch...

When you've got it, you've got it, and in this episode we meet a handful of characters who do. It's an eccentric mix of twenty-one films making us this episode and it's sure to make you do splits between two chairs! Just some of the films covered include Josh embracing "Noir-vember", Chris getting DRESSED TO KILL, a mad bomber with a penchant for rollercoasters, Tori...
