The Home Video Hustle

Now there is a film title for that ass! Our Uncle Michael has contributed to the show once again with another film he sent us. I had heard of this but never seen one second of it. I expected something along the lines of the old Peter Jackson movies and I, kinda got that? It's a wild ride for sure. Get it? Wild Ride...Motorcycles? I'll go.

This is all Brendan's fault, had both Chris and I asking, "What was he thinking?!" ...Get it? This a fourth watch for me but the first for poor Christopher. We just experienced "Things" and if you listen to the episode, you wont have to. Be warned...

James Bond has returned and we just so happened to come back to one of the most polarizing films in the series. I know people that love this film and many who absolutely despise it. Ya'll know how we roll though, have to give it the Hustle treatment and see what's really up. Anita is back for the Bondage as well! C!!!

Another Patreon Pick this week and it's from the homie Mario of The Superiority Complex Podcast! I am actually a fan of this film and the series but it's been a bit since I have watched it and now I get to analyze the hell out of it. ...In-between waxing poetic about the art of DJ'ing and making the usual dirty jokes and puns. That's what'll come here for right? More Movie Reviews on LetterBoxd -...

PUT YO WEIGHT ON IT! Yessir, the bag has brought us back to the realm of Rudy Ray Moore and out of all the movies he has, I think this may be the weirdest one. In 1979, disco was not looked at as fondly, so I like to look at this film as a bookend of not only, the Rudy Ray Moore Quadrilogy, not only of the disco era but also as a bookend to the so called "Blaxploitation" boom of the 70's.

My love for bad movies and Mystery Science Theater 3000 has come to torment Chris once again! This is one of my absolute favorite episodes of that show but i'd never seen the movie un-riffed and since we did Man-Thing and Swamp Thing, I figured this would be a good conclusion to our "Swamp Trilogy!" What happens when a mad scientist turns himself into a walking catfish and plans on creating fish t...

Wes Craven did a horror flick? Oh, we had to check this out. It also gave Chris a chance to flex his comic knowledge and drop some Swamp Thing lore on me. This is also part two of what I am dubbing "The Swamp Trilogy." What is that? Well we did Man-Thing a while back, now this and well, you'll see the conclusion next episode...

Man... Did any of you even know there was a fifth movie in this franchise? I guess doing this makes sense since the new one is coming out but damn Jerika, you're gonna make me sit through this a second time?!? Never doubt our dedication to our supporters.

We have kept the Hustle strong for nine straight years! (Well, technically May 11th will be 9 years) but we're celebrating it now because it's Friday! Chris and I had to keep the story going with the sequel to El Mariachi and probably the best film in the Mexico Trilogy, Desperado! Our cousin Andrew even got on the line to share memories of this film from our childhood and I told a story that i'm...

Now, this is a classic. One of the first DVD's I owned back in the day and the first time I felt like a real cinephile. Yeah, I wasted a movie with subtitles! What a different time. It's been a while since I watched and Chris somehow has never watched it, so let's take this stroll down memory lane and see if my childhood can be relived.

Our Patron Daniel Boone must be a fan of the chin because we get to see what happens when Bruce Campbell makes a whole film about...Himself! Chris and I are fans but neither of us have seen this before. Won't spoil my review but it made me want to watch Evil Dead 2 again.

The Homie Mike Bagford made us an offer we couldn't refuse and even got Anita back on the microphone for this special occasion. I'll be honest with you, I was sick, recovering with a mild fever and it hurt to talk, so you get introduced to a new Brent this week, "FEVER BRENT!" It killed my voice to do this episode but I still loved doing it for you guys, we hope you enjoy the show! More Movie Revi...

Our Patron Seth Blackwell wants us to get our T-U-R-T-L-E Power on this week. Chris is a big fan of TMNT and knows a lot of lore and I have never liked the Ninja Turtles. Could this be a situation like last episode and I can have a change of heart?

We're bringing The Black History Month Marathon to a close this year with the movie that saved Marvel Comics and is the reason you have all your MCU films now! It may be crazy to say but, I was never a huge fan of this film growing up, can't really say why. Now, I get to watch it with new (old) eyes and give it a true try and see if I can see what everyone fell in love with back in the late 1900's...

Brent is losing his damn mind this week, one guess as to why. Last week Damon Wayans flexed his comedy and action chops, now the older brother Keenan is getting some time to shine. Those movie critics have to be trippin' right? No way this movie is as bad as they tried to make it.

The Wayans strike again but this time it's Damon up to bat with his first starring role, Mo' Money! So a comedian wrote it and an action guy directed it, surely there will be no massive changes in tone throughout the film right? Doesn't matter because this soundtrack is perfect and so is 1992 Stacey Dash! Shame about the modern version... More Movie Reviews on LetterBoxd - https://letterboxd.com/h...

It's a new month but the Black History Month Marathon continues! The film today is all about people being in the wrong place, at the wrong time but you are in the right place for some "Good A-- Podcasting," as my brother PJ would say. It's a meeting of the Ice's this week and this cast is full of familiar faces, so lets have some fun and pump up the volume on this soundtrack too! More Movie Review...

The Wayans Brothers are up to bat with the parody game this week but can they do better than Chris Rock last week? This is a first time watch for Chris and I am dying to know which film he prefers. For me, i'm just curious if it holds up because this was always, as the kids like to say, a "Certified Hood Classic."

Wanted the keep the vibes right after House Party last week, so lets keep it funny and hip hop and see what Chris Rock has for us this week! What happens when you basically take the story of NWA, late 80's and 90's gangsta rap culture and mix in Charlie Murphy? Comedy gold, that's what. Lets head over to Locash and see what's up!

We're gonna keep the party live this Black History Month and discuss a classic, it's only my second time seeing it in full as well! Also gonna get a bit of HVH Radio stylin' too because you know I can't control myself when the music starts going. Oh and PJ IS HERE THIS WEEK!

It's Black History Month and we are starting the celebration by watching the original Hip-Hop film, Wild Style. I've seen this countless times but this is the first time in beautiful 4K! If you think i'm bad with my film nerdiness, now it gets mixed with music nerdiness. So throw ya hands in the air, wave 'em like you just dont care and if you ready to Hustle, somebody say OH YEAH!!!

The bag is back and like always it brought us some "grade A trash!" (Shout out to PJ) This film was a favorite of our uncles back in the day and I had forgotten all about it until recently. Can never really go wrong with a dumb action flick and it brought back good memories of the video store and late nights with pizza and HBO. Lets enjoy a simpler time.

It's Chris' turn to talk about one of his favorite films and luckily, it was one of my favorites as a kid too. It's been probably a decade or more since i've watched this and i am very curious to see if it holds up for me. I even did some homework and read the old "Chasing Dogma" comic book tie in and of course, we both bought the new 4K disc. We're nerds, what do you expect? More Movie Reviews on...

It's my birthday today, so I figured i'd celebrate by watching my favorite movie of all time and make Chris and Anita watch it with me! Chris watched the Directors Cut and Anita and I watched the Final Cut. No matter the cut, we got some good 'ol cyberpunk, jazzy, replicant filled goodness for you this week and it's all good, if they don't like it, disownment ain't a new concept. More Movie Review...

Starting off 2026 with a triple feature of movies I had never seen before. Watching a bunch of blue aliens run through trees and fly around on birds, didn't seem to really be my thing but you know, there may be something here. Anita joins me this time and gets to hear my ASMR voice as well as my angry rant about a certain kid in the film. More Movie Reviews on LetterBoxd - https://letterboxd.com/h...
