Revenge of the 90s: A Movie Podcast

We're huge fans of Chucky in these parts, and we're very excited to talk about 1998's 'Bride of Chucky,' which pulled the series out of waning relevance and into its glorious era of camp. Be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod while you're at it!

If you've got a debilitating fear that there are people living in your basement - or perhaps even in the walls of your home - have we got a movie for you! The Spooktacular rolls on with another Wes Craven classic, 1991's 'The People Under the Stairs,' a great social commentary as much as it is a spooky ride from the horror master himself. Check us out on social too @revengeofuspod!

To help talk about 1997's 'Event Horizon,' we brought on one of the world's foremost experts on the film. Our guest Matt Cohen is the creator of Jump Scare zine ( https://jumpscarezine.bigcartel.com/ ) and is ready to unload all of his knowledge about this horror/sci-fi cult classic. Be sure to check Jump Scare out on Instagram as well ( https://www.instagram.com/jumpscarezine/ ) - oh, and us too...

'Ghostwatch' only aired once, but that was enough to cause quite the stir in the UK, as this horror movie/mockumentary masked as a "real" live TV event is an extremely spooky and fascinating predecessor to what eventually became the found-footage horror genre. Check us out on social too @revengeof90spod.

Our annual '90s Spooktacular is finally here and we're kicking things off with 1992's Death Becomes Her, starring Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, and Bruce Willis. It's a great horror comedy with innovative special effects (what else would you expect from Robert Zemeckis?), Willis getting to be as silly as he wants, and Streep and Hawn doing all sorts of physical harm to each other. It's good stuff! Ch...

Football season is here, so let's kick things off (pun absolutely intended) with 1993's "The Program," a college football movie in which every conceivable controversial storyline happens to a singular team, coached by James Caan!

Get sucked into our latest episode as we talk about one of our favorite family-friendly 90s hits in 1995's Jumanji! Be sure to rate our show and leave us a review or we'll send Van Pelt after you.

You might want to check this movie out to see young Jack Black and Seth Green doing their thing, but the climactic rollerblading race down the DEVIL'S BACKBONE hill is honestly incredible and genuinely thrilling. Check out this hidden gem of a '90s teen movie and then follow us on social @revengeof90spod.

Steve randomly thought about Taylor Swift falling in love with her security thinking that was an original idea, until he realized it was the exact plot of the 1992 film 'The Bodyguard.' Let's talk about this movie and its utterly insane soundtrack - and its equally insane box-office numbers - and when we're done, be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod.

We've got one more round of '90s Movie Hall of Fame inductions (for now), focusing on our actress nominees. See who made the cut and be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod!

We continue our series on nominations for the 2023 class into the '90s Movie Hall of Fame, focusing this week on a couple directors who made '90s film so memorable. Be sure to rate, review, subscribe, and then check us out on social too @revengeof90spod.

We've started the '90s Movie Hall of Fame (naturally), and we're rolling out our 2023 class, starting with our character actor inductions. Be a part of this vital public service by checking out our latest episode, and let us know which character actor you'd induct by reaching out on social media @revengeof90spod.

The Mission: Impossible series has become one of the best franchises in action history, but it all began with a great Brian De Palma spy thriller in 1996. Not to mention the set pieces hold up to anything the franchise has done since. Check us out on social media too @revengeof90spod.

Somehow we botched a Richard Donner assassin movie starring Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas, and Julianne Moore - with a script from the Wachowskis - but at least we got one of the greatest GIFs of all time out of it. Let's talk about this unfortunately forgettable 1995 action film and see where it all went (mostly) wrong.

It's rare to watch a baseball movie where the filmmakers had just about zero interest in the sport itself, but hey, here we are with 1996's The Fan. Come check out this bizarre Tony Scott film with us, especially if you love the subgenre of Robert De Niro being a creepy stalker. Follow us on social too @revengeof90spod!

We love Brendan Fraser and The Mummy so much that we risked our lives entering a time portal to the 21st century so we could watch and talk about The Mummy Returns (2001)! Join us as we enter this strange new world (for one episode at least). Follow us on social too @revengeof90spod!

We've got a special treat for you this episode, because we're talking about one of the greatest movies of all time. 'Saving Private Ryan' is an incredible film that shifted the way we think about WWII in some ways, stripping away that typical Hollywood sheen when it came to movies about the war. It's an important film, which makes it all the more baffling that it didn't win Best Picture. Be sure t...

'Jerry Maguire' might have more iconic quotes than any other '90s movie, but have you seen this thing lately? It's insanely sincere, way too long, and a strange watch in today's especially cynical world. And Tom Cruise's performance occasionally borders on terrifying, but that's just '90s Tom Cruise for you. Check out our latest episode and be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

James Bond and Michelle Yeoh kicking ass in 1997's 'Tomorrow Never Dies' makes for one of the most fun - and prescient - entries in the franchise, even if this one does feel a bit forgotten. Get your Bond fix here and be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod. 

Did you know that 1992's 'Encino Man' now features TWO Oscar-nominated actors? Sadly, neither is Pauly Shore, but we are going to talk about that and more in this episode. Join us for the ride and then check us out on social media @revengeof90spod.

Brace yourselves for a hearty dose of nostalgia, dripping in Ivan's purple ooze, as this episode takes us back to 1995 and the first big-screen adventure for our beloved Power Rangers. It's got skydiving, rollerblading, a horrible CGI finale, and ending credits fueled by Van Halen. What's not to like? Be sure to check us out on social too @revengeof90spod.

It's time to jack in, baby! In this episode, we talk about the movie that almost derailed Kathryn Bigelow's career - 1995's Strange Days, starring Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett, Juliette Lewis, and Tom Sizemore's insane wig. Let's get a peek at our dystopian future with this one, and when you're done, be sure to check us out on social media @revengeof90spod.

We're closing out the year with a holiday classic - 1999's Eyes Wide Shut! Join us as we discuss the heartwarming tale of a man who's just out here trying to have sex with somebody - anybody - and stumbles upon a delightful little cult in the woods. Be sure to check us out on social too @revengeof90spod.

If I told you there were FOUR movies in the 3 Ninjas series, how fast would you pass out? Regain your composure and join us on the beginning of this journey as we talk about a movie that features every single thing kids in the '90s liked - including a random Home Alone sequence right in the middle of the film. Be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod.

We all just endured the midterms, so we're capping things off by talking about the 1999 film 'Election,' which gives you the opportunity to see what Matthew Broderick looks like during sex - cool! Be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.
