The Jacked Up Review Show

Nathan from What Were They Thinking podcast was courteous enough to stop by and join in the animalistic disaster flicks that are the Apes reboot trilogy. Is a fourth installment really necessary? Does this feel more like a prequel to the original Apes films instead of a reboot?? Did you know about the recent Star Trek-Planet of the Apes crossover comic book??? We review the various visual effects...

I finally got a chance to interview one of the most underrated B-movie actresses and adult film stars of the ‘00s: Lezley Zen! She gets to talk about her newest projects in development, how she was her own boss, her upcoming book, her updated celeb crushes, what her mainstream vampire/Action star role would be, other less talked about portions of her career and other hysterical reveals. It should...

I once again collaborate with Cancelled SciFi blogsite to deliver yet another Top 10 shows of that genre that unfortunately didn’t last long on the airwaves. Why were they so compelling? Why couldn’t they take off?? Was it the networks goofing up again or was it because it was a cult show that took too long to get going initially??? Find out more here and be prepared to recognize a few picks that...

Why did this beloved film received 3 unrelated sequels starring B-movie fighter Daniel Bernhardt (The Matrix Reloaded and John Wick)? Why is the music and drama in this unexpectedly really awesome?? Why was this rediscovered each generation once the ‘80s ended??? Find out here and feel free to share your comments on the episode below! #JackedUpReviewShow #Bloodsport #JCVD #DanielBernhardt #ForestW...

Utilizing the talents of Candy and Daniel from The House That Screams Podcast, we try to determine which are possibly Full Moon/Empire Pictures’ best entries. While tackling producer and creator Charles Band’s most likable entries, we also have to go by one requirement: we can’t pick a film of their’s that relies on the presence of a killer doll! We also discuss how low-budget companies like this...

Johnny Potoky (host of Attack of the B-Movies Podcast) swings by to help me review and even rank the first six Star Trek films which featured the cast of The Original Series TV show that started it all. Were they off to a rough start? Do they even stand the test of time?? Are they as big a mixed batch as the later spin-off shows and movies??? Do they only appeal to the show’s fanbase or do they ha...

The podcast members 2 Guys 1 Canuck (John, Aaron and Mike) join me once again to bash outrageously atrocious sitcoms as well as some underrated and questionable entries in addition to our usual bashing. We also do our usual amusing riffs and conversations that are so typical when all 4 of us are in the room. I then force the guys to do a Whose Line Is it Anyway? style Hoedown about Sitcoms to whic...

The Action Elite head reviewers and colleagues Eoin Friel and Jonathan Mark join me in tackling this cult “Save the President” film franchise by Nu Image/Millennium Films starring Gerard Butler (300), Angela Bassett (Strange Days), Aaron Eckhart (The Dark Knight) and Morgan Freeman (Unforgiven). Is this Secret Service Agent starring spy/buddy Action Thriller franchise too much for its own good? Is...

I saddle up with MST3k fans Will Nexii and Elizabeth Meredith on the other best roles that Mike portrayed on the show Mystery Science Theater 3000. An altogether fun yet quick surprise episode. We pick the following roles: Toblerone, Megaweapon, as the host of 372 Pages We’ll Never Get Back, Hugh Beaumont, Janeway, his wigged role for Werewolf ep, Morrissey, Valeria, Goosio and Torgo Afterwards, w...

I team up with Whose Line? expert Spencer Medbury and Dallas comedian Fabian XIV to discuss why this show survived multiple eras, entertaining song, dance and sketch comedy and our favorite improv games from this show that the entire family was able to watch. We all talk about live shows we’ve been to as well as improv comedy and stand-up comedy circuit personal experiences making this be easily t...

I’m joined by My Horrific Life podcaster and blogger Erica Wright. We also talk about about actor Andrew Divoff since she’s the social media coordinator for said actors’ Facebook. We mention the various fan encounters we’ve both encountered firsthand as well as commonly heard of, why it’s mostly unique and just flat out whacky as a whole. At the end of this, we hope you, the listener, can determin...

I team up with the geek duo Ricardo Paige and Robb Antequera of the Big Bearded Brooklyn Bros. Podcast to review the Jerry Bruckheimer produced show CSI which made crime-solving sexy, had more Se7en type mysteries on primetime TV and look downright comic book-ish! We rank and review the original Las Vegas show along with the Miami, New York and Cyber follow-ups (and even the forgotten about crocod...

After remembering other forgotten roles and briefly scrolling through his IMDb page, we finalize what have to be Bruce’s Ten Best Film Roles to Date in the podcast season premiere! We also detail his various TV recurring and guest spot roles, hysterical autobiography books, cartoon and videogame voice-overs, commercials, latter-day movie cameos and far more obscure indie/made for TV films. #Jacked...

Meredith Leigh introduces herself to the show while Robb and I join her in the rapid-fire chat on what this whole sudden reveal of HBO Max app content might potentially unreal: a new version of the 2017 Justice League movie. Will this improve a rather troubled movie? Was this the actual cut of the film meant from the get-to before the producers messed around with it?? Or is it too little, too late...

We close off our very first season by having my new homie and guest Chris Murphy discuss what are the 10 definitive yet most agreeable Action genre film franchises of all time. After that we then discuss film sequel discussions and other beloved genre stars who need to get their own franchises already! Fun times yet an overall straightforward way to conclude the first ever season. #JackedUpReviewS...

I team with my pal, Star Wars podcaster and Terminator fanfilm creator Gershom Reese Wetzel (no relation to Kyle Reese!) on the entire Terminator film franchise as well as the two-season lasting Sarah Connor Chronicles TV show spin-off, the various merchandise, comic books and how we even got into this whole franchise to begin with. Join us as we reminisce about Gershom’s encounters with the film’...

Ryan Luis Rodriguez of The Coolness Chronicles podcast returns for the closure to the remaining seasons of this always intense political thriller and disaster drama that is rather fascinating to watch still. But we ask are the non-Aaron Sorkin remaining seasons worth their weight on their own terms, are too many of his fanbase not giving those latter years an equal chance or did it end on a rough...

Better known as just “Kaos,” I go further into this Action/Thriller director, cinematographer and writer’s various forays into misunderstood, solid, cult and infamous cinema. I also joke around with him while mentioning previous interviews done on him, his other favorite movies, note his best cinematic accomplishments, hint at his future potential work, memories working with famous actors (and how...

Daniel Ryan and Candy-Allison Smith return once again for recasting “what if?” mayhem involving cruddy films originally featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000 and we pretty much go no-holds-barred on the final films that could’ve been contenders with phenomenal actors, brilliant dialogue, stunning effects and gripping plots yet unfortunately weren’t actually realized that way originally. #Jacked...

I’m joined by the always stellar sibling VHS Action movie review team that is Brett and Ty of Comeuppance Reviews! And given how we like the B-movies and always striving Action genre, we decided to rank together our ten high and low points for the rather underrated genre star Dolph Lundgren. We also talk shit about goofy CBS crimefighting action shows, how Dolph is getting his own show on that net...

A contributor to blogs like PopHorror, the ingenious mind behind the crowdfunded VHS Horror movie throwback The Embalmers and much more, Rebecca Rinehart proves to be both a fascinating talent and badass film maestro. We discuss how she got into the film scene, how this damn Corona virus won’t interfere with her distributing this film and the other cool genre talents she’d love to collaborate with...

I have John J. Joex AKA “Johnny J,” the blogger and creator of the must-read blog Cancelled SciFi, which covers the ratings, reviews and first looks at various SciFi shows while (like the title describes) predicting which will remain on the air and which will fail to get a seasons renewal. This is also the first episode where I incorporate promos for other beloved podcasts such as They Must Be Des...

Brent Fullen Jr. (of the Home Video Hustle Podcast) joins me for a special opportunity to cast two hit video game franchises while also reminiscing about other cheesy and rather unwatchable adaptations of cult video games. We also dissect other video games and go on a “Uwe Boll sucks” rant that could actually be adapted (even though they are unlikely to). Brent gets to also plug other material for...

I team up with Ryan Luis Rodriguez of The Coolness Chronicles podcast to review one of our favorite shows for network TV: The West Wing. Conceived by Aaron Sorkin (A Few Good Men) and produced by John Wells (ER), it launched the careers of semi-known talents as well as featuring well-known veterans like Martin Sheen. We dive into the first two season (we will conclude the remaining five seasons in...

After recasting 10 Mystery Science Theater 3000 featured films in the Horror genre, we then decide to recast 10 episodes that were of the Action genre. #JackedUpReviewShow #MST3k #MysteryScienceTheater3000 #ThePumaman #ActionMovies #Recast #Redo #Remakes #Reboots #JimParsons #TheBigBangTheory #Sitcoms #CrazyMovies #DonaldPleasence #MalcolmMcDowell #Halloween #JohnCarpenter #Mitchell #JoeDonBaker #...
