  • The Evil Dead (1981) & Evil Dead II (1987)
    Oct 30 2024

    James & Nick drive Uncle Ben's Oldsmobile Delta 88 into the creepy woods to find themselves at the end of the road for spooky szn. What lies ahead is evil, it is dead, and it is downright hilariously messed up. Slap a chainsaw to your arm & call me George of the Jungle, because we gotta watch out for that tree!

  • Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)
    Oct 23 2024

    Killer Klowns attacked us where it hurt, at the concession stand. We won't stand for weaponizing popcorn around these parts. And by these parts we mean NOT Capitola. James & Nick get cotton-candied by Killer Klowns during a first watch and a first REWATCH of the late 80s cult classic movie. Strap in, it's gonna be a sticky ride.

  • Fatal Attraction (1987)
    Oct 2 2024

    Spooky, scary, scandalous! Welcome to spooky season '24 and round these parts, we absolutely love it. We ease into the murderous month with a classic. Come along with Nick & James to "just have some dinner because we're all adults here" and unpack the Oscar nominated 1980s thriller - Fatal Attraction.

    In this episode we discuss the difficulty in getting this movie made, the weird reason producers never wanted Glenn Close, and what we think on a first (and second) watch. All of that, the weekly movie quiz, and MORE. We will not be IGNORED, listen to this episode, or else.

  • Minutemen (2008)
    Sep 18 2024

    Wait a minute man, is this is rom-com? Heck no, it's a time traveling DCOM and it's MINUTEMEN. Our annual stop on the Disney channel lands on a 2008 joint with Emmy nominated Nicholaus Braun of Succession, Jason Dolley from Simi Valley, and Ariel Winter's boyfriend. Don't forget Fake Dean from Community. James & Nick leap off a diving board into a CGI vortex to see if Disney Channel Original Movies post-childhood have still got it.

  • Return to Oz (1985)
    Aug 21 2024

    Welcome back(?) to the marvelous land of Oz! We peer behind the curtain on Walter Murch's faithfully book-adapted and terrifyingly good/bad forbidden sequel to Victor Fleming's 'The Wizard of Oz'. All the info, back story, movie trivia, and more along this broken yellow brick road in Just Play It's review of 'Return to Oz'.

    And if you had any doubt if this was a sequel to the MGM classic, well then just take a look down at your ruby slippers, Dorothy, because that's the key, THE KEY.
