It has begun! Brian and Cargill try to survive their encounter with Paul WS Anderson's film adaptation of that videogame your parents didn't want you to play!

It's time to settle an age-old dispute, to put an end to the squabbling and declare a winner in the ultimate clash of geek titans...no, we're not talking about bloated blockbusters pitting dreary cape against dour haircut. This week, Cargill and I are heading back to the 80s and trading blows until we have a victor in the battle between The Goonies and The Monster Squad!

This week, Brian and Cargill give you Nightmares! No, we're not talking about the sleep you'll lose thinking about their terrible diets, we mean the 1983 anthology horror flick Nightmares.

Brian and Cargill flip (and cartwheel and handspring) over the relentless 2004 Thai actioner Born To Fight! The movie Gymkata wants to be when it grows up!

After almost exactly two years of broadcasting, Brian and Cargill finally get to slam some evil with The Phantom!

Brian "River Rat" Salisbury and C. "Mandroid" Cargill gear up to take on a ninja, a scoundrel, two types of robots, and twelve kinds of crazy. Prepare, as best you can, for Eliminators!

This week, Brian & Cargill seek to thrill you by strolling through the uniquely spectacular genre mashup that is Fred Dekker's Night of the Creeps!

Brian and Cargill pop the hoods and kick the tires of Death Race 2000 and its remake Death Race (2008).

Cargill and I continue our journey through underrated horror sequels and end up in Haddonfield on the night HE came home...again!

Welcome to the wasteland. Millions of movies living in the ruin of taste. Only one thing fighting for order in the chaos: Junkfood Cinema.

Brian and Cargill are back with the sky-swashbuckling period superhero flick The Rocketeer. This exciting pulp-pourri features a stellar cast and crew, amazing specifity of references, and is possibly the best Howard Hughes biopic of all time. Sorry, Scorsese!

The last call of Brian and Cargill's exploration of single-night flicks is the darkly excellent, woefully underappreciated Scorsese comedy After Hours!

Continuing their tireless exploration of single-night movies, Brian and Cargill encourage you to survive Judgment Night! An amazing cast and stellar score elevate what could have otherwise been written off as the bro-iest movie of all time!

Check your bedtime at the door, because this month Junkfood Cinema is celebrating those movies that take place over the course of one long evening. First up, we accompany Elizabeth Shue on her Adventures in Babysitting!
