In a terrible mishmash of Mad Max and Porky’s, Rowdy Roddy Piper, one of the last fertile men on Earth, must rescue, then impregnate, a group of women being held captive by frog people. Sounds a lot more exciting than it actually is.
A rather confusing musical starring Olivia Newton-John, Gene Kelly (in his last movie appearance) and Michael Beck (the guy from The Warriors). Features a great soundtrack from ONJ and ELO.
Fun fact: it was a double feature of this movie and Can’t Stop The Music (the one about The Village People that came out the same year) which led to the creation of the Razzies!
Come listen to us watch this confusing mess of a kung-fu film from late ’70’s.
Do you enjoy movies that leave you feeling confused and befuddled? Boy, do we have a film for you! Death Dimension stars Jim Kelly, George Lazenby, and the guy who played Oddjob in Goldfinger. What little plot it possesses is just a flimsy excuse for fight scenes.
Come along and watch us experience Psychotronic Man for the first time! Get it before it gets yanked!
We watch a very low budget and somewhat incoherent film from 1979 called Psychotronic Man that’s about an alcoholic barber who develops psychic powers for reasons we’re not too clear on and the chaos that results. A bad, but thoroughly entertaining film.
The week after Chuck Norris passed, we watched one of his movies: Silent Rage from 1982. It wasn’t very good. Unfortunately, audio issues cropped up during our discussion, which made the recording unusable. However, our commentary track was fine, so we’re putting that up for your listening pleasure.
I was unable to verify this synced properly with the movie, so it might require some fiddling to get it to track right. My apologies.
An extremely sweaty and fight filled rip off of Terminator with bits of Bladerunner, The Warriors, and Mad Max thrown in for good measure. Stars Billy Blanks (of Tae Bo fame) and Bolo Yeung. If you’re Gen X, you probably saw this on the shelf in the video store in the mid ’90’s.
No, not that Venom!
This Venom stars Oliver Reed, Klaus Kinski, and Sterling Hayden. It has nothing to do with symbiotes , but is instead a hostage drama with the added complication of a poisonous snake loose in the building.
