Reviewing only the finest films in the history of cinema. And robots, too.
A podcast 3, 5, or 12 years in the making! Join Tom, Mike Toole, and I as we delve deep into two versions of a very pretty but thoroughly inexplicable animated film from 2005 and 2009, respectively. CLICK HERE or on the movie poster above to download our review of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, a story that is brimming over with Planet Fever™.
Hold on to your elvish mind-stones, because Hawk the Slayer (1980) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Gerard (from Canada).
Review in a Nutshell: A narratively threadbare fantasy film, Hawk the Slayer (1980) is nonetheless a fascinating experience thanks to stolen production value, bizarre directorial choices, and an absolutely unhinged performance by Jack Palance as an evil warlord.
Watch out for booby traps, because Dave Made a Maze (2017) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Zoe from the Internet.
Review in a Nutshell: A warm, genuinely funny horror-comedy with great production design and a touching theme, Dave Made a Maze (2017) is a wonderfully imaginative film with a small budget and a big heart.
Hold on to your ancient, druidic rituals, because Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995) is the Greatest Movie EVER? Click on the movie title or the promo banner above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Kyle “ChibiUFO” Foster.
Review in a Nutshell: The sixth in a long line of sequels, remakes, and reboots, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995) is notable for having a troubled production complicated by last-minute reshoots, resulting in a bizarre producer’s cut and a fascinatingly broken theatrical cut.
Hold on to your alien eggs, because 20 Million Miles to Earth (1957) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie lobby card or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring “Celebrity Translator” Neil Nadelman.
Review in a Nutshell: A creature feature in which the movie monster is the most sympathetic character in the entire film, this otherwise by-the-numbers science fiction thriller is buoyed up by strong production design and the incredible stop-motion animation of Ray Harryhausen.
Hold on to your WWII era hostages, because Fantasy Mission Force (1983) is the Greatest Movie EVER?
Click on the movie title or the bootleg DVD cover above to download our review of the film, featuring Daryl Surat of AnimeWorldOrder.
Review in a Nutshell: The very existence of this utterly baffling martial arts / crime caper / historical / ghost story / musical is an affront to the concept of a just and rational universe. Watch it (at your own peril)!
Hang on to your enchanted weapons, because The Magic Sword (1962) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring guest host Gerard…from Canada!
Review in a Nutshell: A straightforward quest narrative with a few self-aware and humorous nods, The Magic Sword (1962) is a colorful spectacle film that is buoyed up by decent production values and a lot of strange subtext.
Hold on to your outboard motors, because Killer Crocodile (1989) is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the Blu-ray cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring the Internet’s Tom Pandich.
Review in a Nutshell: An absolutely shameless rip-off of Jaws (1975), Killer Crocodile (1989) is a knee-slapping good time that – like many Italian exploitation films – is also likely to leave you scratching your head in confusion in places.
Gas up the LandMaster, because Damnation Alley is the Greatest Movie EVER?
Click on the Blu-ray cover or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring “Celebrity Translator” Neil Nadelman.
Review in a Nutshell: A post-apocalyptic road trip movie hobbled by script issues and dodgy special effects, Damnation Alley is more interesting in concept than in execution. The Landmaster vehicle does most of the heavy lifting.
Put down the proto-baby, because Hardcore Henry is the Greatest Movie EVER!
Click on the movie poster or the title above to download our review of the film, featuring Daryl Surat of AnimeWorldOrder.
Review in a Nutshell: An innovative action film with a clever conceit and incredible stunt work, Hardcore Henry accomplishes amazing feats of film-making despite a very tiny budget.
