We take a look at the under-seen Bad Times at the El Royale, chronicle the various bad times, its historical connections, and clockwork narrative. Panelists: Chris, Devin, Doug

I take the Revenge of the '90s boys down to the well and make them rub the lotion on their skin or else they get The Silence of the Hams again. Panelists: Steve, Fabs

This time capsule gave us what we always wanted from our favorite 1980s cartoon characters - a soapbox to tell us drugs were pretty great but to still not do them! Panelists: David, Dan, Eric, Ryan

Our annual Switcheroo has us looking at the classic film Unforgiven, and we dig into its moral complexity, superior craftsmanship, and immortal performance by the late great Gene Hackman. Panelists: Jimmy, Doug, Dan

Stephen King's self-described moron movie Maximum Overdrive is our focus for this Halloween episode, and, boy howdy, was this a movie that exists. Panelists: Nate, Jason

Our next Halloween entry is the 2002 cult classic May, a movie that checks all the right horror boxes: children, eyes, dolls, amputation, cannibalism, and social anxiety! Panelists: David, Jack

A lot about The Kindred doesn't work, but it shines in the effects department, especially in delivering probably the best human-fish mutant put to film. Panelists: Doug, Jimmy, Nathan
