Revenge of the 90s: A Movie Podcast

In 1993, Arnold Schwarzenegger could not have been a bigger movie star. And then he made a little movie called 'Last Action Hero,' which he describes as the beginning of the end of his true stardom. But we're here to tell you this movie actually rules pretty hard! Join us as we get into another movie where Arnold takes some chances in a role most action stars would never attempt, then be sure to f...

The third movie in the legendary Alien series was about as fraught a production as you will ever find - and yet, it produced an incredibly compelling, strange, and frustrating movie that you just can't turn away from. We brought back our good buddy Walt Braley to help us dissect this bold turn in Ellen Ripley's story. Be sure to follow us on social too @revengeof90spod!

We brought on superstar MVP guest Linton Lewis from the Uncanny Cinema podcast to talk about this incredibly erotic interpretation of everyone's favorite vampire.

If you have a fear of visiting the dentist, 1996's 'The Dentist,' starring Corbin Bernsen is... probably not going to help. But for horror fans, it offers a few decent gory moments to make it worth checking out. Other than that, the story is just insane, and we're talking all about it in this episode.

Welcome to the 2021 Halloween Spooktacular! All of October we will be bringing you a new batch of '90s horror to talk about, starting with 1997's slasher classic 'I Know What You Did Last Summer.'

With 'Jackass Forever' ready to hit theaters, we decided to go ALL the way back to where it began - to Bam Margera's completely unhinged CKY series, which debuted in 1999 with 'Landspeed: CKY,' a skate video full of raunchy skits and stunts that would serve as the precursor to what would eventually become everyone's beloved 'Jackass.' The boys of Rogue Squadron Podcast are our guests this week, so...

A new football season is here, so we're kicking things off by talking about one of the most insane football movies of all time: 1999's 'Any Given Sunday'! There's plenty of brutal football action in this Oliver Stone sports epic, along with one of the greatest movie speeches of all time, which you've definitely heard if you've been to a sporting event over the past twenty years. Suit up and join u...

We're teaming up with the podcast Uncanny Cinema again to bring you an episode on what might be Bill Murray's most underrated movie - 1990's 'Quick Change,' starring Murray, Geena Davis, and Randy Quaid. This movie is also notable for being Murray's first and only directing credit. If you're looking to uncover little-known comedy gold, you've come to the right place. Be sure to follow us on social...

We're wrapping up Wet Hot Keanu Summer with one of our favorite action films of all time - 1991's 'Point Break' starring Reeves, Patrick Swayze, Gary Busey, Lori Petty, and a whole lot of ridiculously fun action, 90s hairstyles, one-liners, and Buddhist philosophy - or something like it. Anyway, this movie rules and we can't wait to talk about it. Join the fun on social too @revengeof90spod.

We're giving you the red pill this week on the podcast, as we get into one of our all-time favorites: 1999's 'The Matrix'! This movie is all about cool sunglasses, leather clothing, and asking yourself if the world you know is actually reality at all. Plus it completely changed action filmmaking and resurrected Keanu Reeves' career. Not too shabby. Be sure to give us a follow on social media too @...

Back in the '90s, hearing that a Super Mario Bros. movie was being made was like hearing the music of angels - until you actually saw the movie. But for '90s kids, it was still an incredibly fun ride and, honestly, it holds up nearly thirty years later as a weird, ambitious adaptation that simply could not exist today. Be sure to check out our collaboration episode with Uncanny Cinema before you g...

Believe it or not, but there was a time in the mid-'90s where people started to wonder if Keanu Reeves really was a leading man. 'Chain Reaction' from 1996 certainly added to that skepticism, as it is... pretty bland! Starring Reeves, Morgan Freeman and Rachel Weisz, and directed by Andrew Davis, this is a pedestrian thriller that really showcases just how hard it is to make a good movie. Be sure...

Wet Hot Keanu Summer continues with this super steamy movie from 1997, 'The Devil's Advocate,' starring Reeves, Charlize Theron, and Al Pacino. Pacino as the devil, accents appearing and disappearing, aggressive toe-sucking - what's not to like?! Be sure to follow us on social too @revengeof90spod.

Pop quiz, hotshot: what's the best action movie to ever feature a runaway bus that, if it slows down, could explode? If you guessed 1994's 'Speed,' you would be absolutely correct. Wet Hot Keanu Summer is here, and we're starting with, quite possibly, one of the best pure action movies of all time. Let's go! Be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

Have you ever thought, "You know, Jeffrey Jones really should have been more of an action star"? You're in luck, because he got his chance in 1992's 'Mom and Dad Save the World,' an uneven comedy that does have its moments - and some pretty incredible practical effects! Check out our latest episode and be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod.

It's our 75th episode and we're celebrating by talking about one of the best female buddy comedies out there in 1997's 'Romy and Michele's High School Reunion.'

If you're looking for a movie that will leave you with so many more questions than answers, and not always in a good way, may we suggest 1994's 'Clifford,' starring Martin Short as a child for some reason? Dive into this insane movie with us as we also honor the underrated career of Charles Grodin, and be sure to follow us on social media @revengeof90spod.

Under Siege' is widely regarded as Steven Seagal's best movie and that is... not saying much. But hey, there's a ton to love here, from Seagal putting in the bare minimum amount of effort into every scene to Tommy Lee Jones' absolutely bonkers performance. It's not a job, it's an adventure! And when you're done with this adventure, be sure to follow us on social @revengeof90spod.

If you love golf movies, 1996 was absolutely your year. In addition to 'Happy Gilmore,' 1996 gave us Kevin Costner's 'Tin Cup,' which has some of the best pure golfing ever put on screen, likely because Costner was actually golfing in the movie, continuing his quest to only make movies when he gets to do something he likes during it. Come join the Tin Cup Fan Club with us and enjoy one of the best...

Rumble in the Bronx' was Jackie Chan's first big release in North America, and he's been a star in Hollywood ever since. And even through the questionable writing and editing, you can see why that's the case in this 1995 martial arts classic, because it showcases just how unique a talent he really is. Once you're done rumbling in the Bronx, be sure to check us out on social @revengeof90spod.

Though it might be a bit divisive in some circles, 1990's 'Back to the Future Part III' takes the concept we love and manages to make it feel fresh, fun, and completely different from what came before it while still maintaining everything we as an audience love about these characters. Not an easy feat, so let's talk about it! Be sure to follow us on social too @revengeof90spod.

A new baseball season is here, so we're talking about 1994's 'Little Big League,' which is somehow one of the more accurate baseball movies out there despite the fact that it features a kid managing the Minnesota Twins. Come for the weird premise, stay for the legitimately good baseball action! Enjoy this collaboration episode with the California Penal League podcast and then be sure to follow us...
