The Outer Reels

This is actually called "H.G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come", but it has nothing to do with the H.G. Wells novel. Also, this is hot garbage, but Jack Palance does wear a cape. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Come to hear us try and understand this movie that we could barely hear, but stay for Sam's story about his dad designing a new motorcycle engine! Oh, and shockingly Jason develops a crush on our lead French actress. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The people who made this movie appear to have hated it, but we found a lot to like, even if it's not a sequel to Death Race 2000. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sam does it again in forgetting what the actual theme of the season is, though he's quick to point out that there is now a quarry in downtown LA, so it's close enough? Plus, David Carradine phones this in, but still manages to elevate it past where it should be. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This one is wild, and we both had a lot of fun it it's insanity. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sam thought he had a post apocalyptic movie, but it turns out to just be a dystopia. Meanwhile, Jason is sorry he was sick (again). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For our 100th episode Jason subjected to Sam, who decided half way through he had talked enough about this movie and would rather talk about everything else we've done. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We have been introduced to the work of Steve Barkett, and this will NOT be the last. And welcome to The Outer Reels, Sid Haig!  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We pour one out for the demise of Cannon Films before we get into things on Steel American Cyborg Warrior. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

More pants (or lack thereof) talk in this week's episode, which is also the FIRST in Cirio H. Santiago's post apocalyptic movies. We've seen this car before, but now it's for the first time! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Listen in as we try to figure out if this is an actual rip-off of World Gone Wild as well as where are David Carradine's pants? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Tune in to hear about how Sam wants every villain to be like Waterworld's Deacon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Such wasted potential! This movie has a great cast, mostly looks good, but just doesn't come together. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sam encounters his longest prologue ever, while Jason goes and gets a drink. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Battletruck, AKA Warlords of the 21st Century,, AKA the prequel to Terminus? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's some debate as to if this is actually a post apocalyptic movie or just a dystopian one, but in the end we feel Jason is justified. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Continuing our never-ending season on post apocalyptic movies, Sam found one that surprised both of us. It's not good, but it's a lot better than it really should be. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jason subjects Sam to the third attempt to get a Pax TV show from Gene Roddenberry. Surprising no one, this one doesn't work either. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Be careful what poster you see before watching this as some of them make this look like a VERY different movie from what it actually is. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The second of three attempts at getting Gene Roddenberry's "Pax" series going leaves Sam angry this time, but at least he's only got one more to go. This one has the awesome John Saxon, so it's not a complete waste of time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This one's got some serious Outer Reels royalty in it, but is an otherwise mediocre movie. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jason subjects Sam to the first of three(!) made-for-TV movies that were an attempt to get a new Gene Roddenberry sci-fi series onto network TV in the early 70's. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Truly one we watched so you don't ever, EVER need to. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We were excited by this, and left disappointed. How do you have a movie "staring" Ernest Borgnine, and only use him for 16 minutes?!? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
