Bad Movies Rule!

Mailbag: Sour Candy Chaos, UK Biscuits & Sobriety Stories

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0000

James, Clint, and Ryan are in the brand-new studio digging into a mountain of physical mail, including a hilarious Key West postcard with a spicy life hack, mega sour candies that destroy faces, Tennessee treats (beef jerky, Goo Goo Clusters, and a surprise pickle monster drawing from a listener's daughter), Deez Nuts from Arkansas, and an epic UK care package full of Jammy Dodgers, Hobnobs, Cadbury goodies, and teacakes.

Heartfelt letters include a listener who kicked cancer's ass while watching the show during chemo, another who found joy and sobriety through BMR after hitting rock bottom, and stories of family movie memories with granddads and Bruce Lee. Plus voicemails about Rambo Nintendo games, Hollywood theories (LL Cool J can never die?), Navy life, and more. We laugh, we get emotional, we eat way too much junk food, and we celebrate the BMRmy. Send physical mail to PO Box 383, Burlington, WI 53105 — it gets opened first!

If you love bad movies, big laughs, and real community, this one's for you.

#258 - She (1984)

Fri, 17 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0000

This week on Bad Movies Rule, join James, Bob, Curt, and Farrell as they tackle a world gone mad after "The Cancellation," where roving gangs of themed Nazis (yes, really), praying-mantis-style cult leaders, leper chainsaw mutants, a ballerina gas mask guy, a telekinetic cult leader with laser eyes, and a bridge-guarding Popeye impersonator who multiplies when dismembered all coexist in glorious nonsense.

Sandahl Bergman struts through the chaos in one of the most unforgettable (and barely-there) costumes of the '80s, while the plot ricochets from flea markets to pig pens, from poison chili to vampire dog people, and from plastic hammock prisons to a final Home Alone-style bridge battle.

If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if someone threw Mad Max, Conan the Barbarian, The Warriors, and a acid trip into a blender, this is the movie for you. Unpredictable, ridiculous, and strangely watchable in the worst way possible — this one had the crew repeatedly asking “What the hell is happening?” every five minutes.

A true "you have to see it to believe it" bad movie that somehow still rules.

Grab your yellow rubber gloves, avoid the farmer’s market sluts, and settle in for one of the most bonkers rides in BMR history.

Mailbag: New Studio, Landing Planes & Care Package Chaos

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 05:00:00 -0000

The crew is back in the brand-new studio for a jam-packed Mailbag full of wild fan mail! James, Clint, and Ryan open a giant tube to reveal a killer Last Action Hero poster, then crack open Navy challenge coins from a veteran listener… only to discover one very unfortunate (and hilarious) Popeye dick pin that instantly breaks the #1 rule of the new mailbag song.

The highlights keep coming with DJ Campbell’s massive care package: Poultrygeist, Don’t Breathe 1 & 2, Adam Sandler movies, Nightmare Before Christmas goodies, a baby rattle for James' granddaughter, and an absolute mountain of snacks that kicks off a full-scale pickle debate.

Emails and voicemails deliver movie suggestions, Payback and Down Periscope love, Jaws sequel hype, a record-breaking $30 box office bomb story, and the Tone Loc roast that had everyone losing it. Plus plenty of new studio vibes and praise for the updated mailbag theme.

If you love opening packages, ridiculous laughs, and great listener stories, this Mailbag episode is one you don’t want to miss!

The Bad Movies Rule! crew dives into the gloriously ridiculous 1993 cult flop Surf Ninjas.

#255 - Down Periscope (1996)

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0000

Attention, BMRmy! This week on Bad Movies Rule, we're trading dry land for the rusted-out hull of a diesel sub as we dive into the 1996 naval comedy, Down Periscope. The crew—along with special guest Mel from the kids' table—breaks down all the nautical nonsense and submarine tropes we can handle.

Episode Highlights:

A Questionable Command: We discuss Kelsey Grammer's pirate-like tactics, his clash with Admiral Graham (Bruce Dern), and the ongoing debate surrounding his infamous tattoo.
Maximum Intensity: We debate Rob Schneider's performance as the wannabe-hardass XO, Pascal, and whether he dialed his intensity up to an 11 or if he was just in a completely different movie.
Musical Whales: Uncovering the shocking (and highly scientific) revelation that whales might actually just be huge fans of Kenny G.
The Ultimate Defense Strategy: Chuck pitches his completely foolproof, 12-star-admiral plan to catch enemy submarines using a massive trans-Atlantic net.

Plus, we dive into our weekly honors, battling it out over who takes home the Will Patton Award for Intensity , the Trash Can Full of Dirt Award , the One Scene Wonder , and the prestigious Steve James Award for Best Supporting Actor. Grab your hot mops and duct tape, because it's time to kick this pig and leave 'em squealing from the feeling!

Mailbag: Chuck Norris vs. Van Damme & Wrestling Mount Rushmores

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0000

The BMR crew read and react to fan mail from around the world—including recommendations for John Carpenter horror films (Prince of Darkness, In the Mouth of Madness) and GMR picks (The Full Monty, Room, Requiem for a Dream), a heartfelt note from a Finnish listener asking about host Ryan's family heritage tied to "Mattila/Matala," praise for their Death Warrant episode, wrestling Mount Rushmore debates (Hulk Hogan, Macho Man Randy Savage, Ric Flair, Undertaker, and more), celebrity encounter stories (like spotting Ryan Reynolds), opinions on Rob Zombie's directing style, divorce reflections tied to movie memories (Con Air as a honeymoon film), and a wild voicemail showdown involving "Lord V" drama and an over-the-top scream story about Robin Williams.

The hosts also take a deep dive into Google Street View comparing Leeds, Alabama (complete with the infamous "Pants Store," one-story buildings, junkyards, and quirky local spots) versus Leeds, UK—declaring the UK version the clear winner. They discuss listener-submitted song ideas for the show, share laughs over voicemails (including one that could have been a hit if submitted earlier).

Bad Movies Rule! dives headfirst into Michael Bay’s 2007 Transformers with hosts James, Stephanie, plus Dave and Ryan. The crew goes scene-by-scene through the Allspark hunt, messy robot transformations, military explosions, Shia LaBeouf’s anxious energy, and the legendary Megan Fox Camaro moment. They roast the over-the-top CGI fights, celebrate Bernie Mac’s car-lot hustle, riff on Bumblebee’s radio playlist, and debate whether this is a “bad movie that rules” or just a straight-up good popcorn blockbuster. Expect nostalgia, hot takes, family banter, and the usual awards chaos—because even giant robots can’t escape the podcast’s loving roast.

Mailbag: More Mummer, Flaming Anus Revenge & Nitro Gummy Bears

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0000

The Bad Movies Rule! crew goes fancy for this mailbag with Clint Busch and special in-studio guest Katie Busch (yes, the one who sets the Katie test standard). Physical mail finally floods in: killer posters (Rollerboys, Tommy Boy, Hands of Steel), a NES game, bizarre DVDs, and the most dangerous candy drop yet—Little Nitro world’s hottest gummy bears that immediately torch Clint’s mouth while everyone else watches in horror. Listeners recommend Bigfoot Hitler Sam Elliott, KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park, Year One (which nobody likes), Mortal Kombat Annihilation, Howard the Duck (already done), and Son of the Mask. Epic listener stories include a childhood airport encounter with Andre the Giant courtesy of a chiropractor dad who treated pro wrestlers, plus the usual chaos: fake city tours of Thousand Oaks, CA, R.L. Stine’s Pumpkinhead roast, Arnold legacy sequel hype, depression shout-outs, and one very long email that gets partially skipped. Hot candy trauma, poster hauls, and family-approved vibes—classic BMR mailbag energy.

#253 - Death Warrant (1990)

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0000

The Bad Movies Rule! crew—James, Chuck, Dave, and Joe—rips through Jean-Claude Van Damme’s 1990 prison thriller Death Warrant scene by scene. Van Damme stars as undercover cop Burke sent into a chaotic lockup to investigate mysterious inmate deaths tied to a secret organ-harvesting ring run by guards and the terrifying Sandman. The episode is packed with roasts of the shaky fight choreography (including the infamous wrench beatdown and fire deaths), massive plot holes, awkward romance with Amanda, questionable prison “realism,” and Van Damme’s signature shirtless flexing. Tangents explode on banana bread, “I’ll be back” thugs, inmate brothels, peanut-shell etiquette, and whether Burke actually saves anyone. They hand out awards, read patron takes, and debate if this is a bad movie straight up or something more ridiculous.

The Bad Movies Rule! crew is back for a wild mailbag with zero physical letters (thanks Ryan), a room full of beaver nugget spray, and Kurt officially crowned everyone’s favorite host. Listeners weigh in on the mailbag song lyrics (“I was stoned by a Christmas tree” gets multiple theories), Bob accidentally saves a dog’s life with his terrible opinions, a son drives to the wrong Burlington, Ricky from Oklahoma confesses to paying a Sloth-lookalike kid to scream “BEES!” at old ladies, and Kyle shares his epic Bill Goldberg weigh-in photo story. Plus: a Japanese voicemail nobody can understand, an attempted mailbag theme song that ends with “toys in my ass,” an F Mary Kill with three Jennifers, airport celebrity sightings, and RJ begging the guys to stop chewing into the mics.

#252 - Pumpkinhead (1988)

Fri, 06 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0000

This episode we follow grieving dad Ed Harley (Lance Henriksen) as he digs up an ancient revenge demon to punish the dirt-biking idiots who accidentally killed his young son — complete with killer practical effects, swamp-witch rituals, and atmospheric lightning-streaked kills. What begins as a horror breakdown quickly derails into legendary tangents about cornfield nightmares, mono-cropping ethics, whether Joel belongs in jail for vehicular kid manslaughter, and exactly how Wisconsin handles edibles (spoiler: rectally, off the backs of cows). They hand out awards, read patron reviews, and ultimately debate if this atmospheric creature feature is a hidden gem or just a gloriously “bad movie that rules.” One of the funniest, most unhinged episodes yet.

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0000

In this chaotic mailbag episode, James, Mattila, and Clint dive into listener submissions with zero filter—kicking off with a call for fan-made jingles to replace the absent theme song (submit yours or face the ban list!). Physical mail steals the show: an anonymous Washington sender drops epic posters for Rhinestone and Space Truckers, while Matt Mulholland hooks them up with Tommy Want Wingy beer (perfect for the upcoming Tommy Boy ep), gummy pickles (James dodges, Ryan chows down), and a hilariously personal bidet sprayer for Ryan's "gateway to better butthole days." Emails and voicemails flood in with Twilight trivia resolutions (Dakota Fanning in two scenes only!), wild celebrity tales (Hammer Fall encounters in Sweden, a heartfelt Paul Di'Anno meetup before his passing, a Hulk #2 stuntman story from a listener's dad, and a near-miss with Dolly Parton at a buffet).

They unbox a killer book on VHS-era gems, custom-painted D&D minis from Leroy, and Norman’s legendary swag haul—including tees and a heartfelt, calligraphy-wrapped letter about his uncle’s dementia-fueled Punisher DVD gift (complete with Ryan’s improvised British accent). Emails spark debates on good movies with dumb plots (Thanos, Lake Placid), bit-part actors who bombed as leads (Tom Arnold, Pauly Shore), and the eternal Will Patton Intensity Award controversy from Rhinestone. Voicemails bring UK time-travel vibes from Vicky (prompting a live Google Maps joyride through Leeds, complete with Popeyes, Chick-fil-A, and Victorian arcades), a heartfelt Dolly Parton incognito meet-cute from Zhoggy, and a passionate defense of Escanaba in da Moonlight.

In this fiery mailbag episode, James, Ryan, and the crew kick off with off-key singing, Parcheesi invites, and a deep dive into frozen pizza nostalgia—from stacking Jack's pizzas to debating Roma vs. Tombstone. Things heat up literally when they open listener mail featuring "Flaming Anus" chocolate infused with Carolina Reaper peppers, leading to hilarious reactions, hiccups, and James's epic meltdown (spoiler: it builds for minutes!). Listeners chime in with voicemails spotting wires in Space Truckers and emails praising exposition in classics like Star Wars, Terminator, Pulp Fiction, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, while pitching wild ideas like an R-rated Home Alone on Purge Night. A passionate Avatar defense highlights its worldbuilding parallels to Lord of the Rings, plus suggestions for movies like If Looks Could Kill and Dead Alive.

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0000

In this lively mailbag episode, James, Clint, and a freshly trimmed Ryan Mattila dive into listener emails and voicemails, kicking things off with a brand-new theme song shoutout. Fans share spooky childhood stories tied to Halloween 3's Silver Shamrock jingle, debate Minnesota sports woes, and pitch movie picks like Crimson Tide for good films, The Others for horror, and The Warrior and the Sorceress for bad movie gems. The crew laughs over near-divorce tales from introducing Tank Girl to spouses, explores if The Godfather trilogy still reigns as the ultimate "man's movie" compared to modern action flicks, and breaks down the entire Rambo series in hilarious detail. Rants fly about Avatar's box office billions (with calls for fraud investigations), Beastmaster 2's wild plot holes and time-travel absurdities, Snyder fan frustrations, and even a quick history lesson on Quaaludes. Weather reports from chilly callers, movie mash-up ideas like Dawn of the Dead meets Mallrats, and deep dives into Airheads' concert logistics round out the chaos—plus, plenty of banter about basement floggings, affirmation rocks, and why time might just be washing over us all.

Voicemails bring heartfelt stories, including Ricky from Oklahoma defending his 18-year age gap relationship, Sheila challenging the gang to pick their top three Tom Hanks films (with picks like Forrest Gump, Cast Away, and A League of Their Own), and Bob from Michigan recommending Dungeons & Dragons while praising Santa with Muscles. The HR parody from Mandy Colin puts the team on notice with hilarious KPIs and performance plans, while debates rage on Avatar's Pocahontas parallels, Twilight's cringe factor, and listener hypocrisy admissions.

#225 - You Don't Mess With the Zohan (2008)

Fri, 29 Aug 2025 05:00:00 -0000

You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008) stars Adam Sandler as an Israeli super-spy who fakes his death to chase his dream: becoming a hairstylist in New York! This ‘00s comedy is packed with goofy accents, hacky sack fights, and stereotypes galore. It's all silly pranks, hummus jokes, and a plot as tangled as bad hair. Is this a cult classic or total trash?

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 05:00:00 -0000

Stone Cold (1991) stars Brian Bosworth as a mullet-sporting cop going undercover in a biker gang—where he punches, shoots, and growls his way through explosions and bad dialogue! This ‘90s action flop is packed with leather vests, motorcycle mayhem, and a plot thinner than a razor blade. Is this a cult classic or total trash?

#223 - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 05:00:00 -0000

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002) cranks up the prequel mess with Hayden Christensen’s wooden Anakin romancing Padmé amid CGI armies and Jar Jar’s reduced role (thank goodness). George Lucas delivers lightsaber duels, clunky dialogue (“I don’t like sand”), and a plot that’s as convoluted as Yoda’s grammar. Is this a sci-fi epic or total trash?

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 05:00:00 -0000

The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996) throws Geena Davis into a wild ride as an amnesiac schoolteacher who’s secretly a badass assassin named Charly! With Samuel L. Jackson as her wisecracking sidekick, this ‘90s thriller mixes over-the-top action, icy stunts, and a plot twist messier than a snowball fight. Is this a cult classic or best left in the 90s?

The Man with the Iron Fists (2012) throws RZA into a wild kung-fu blender—where he’s a blacksmith forging iron fists to fight rival clans over gold! This ‘00s martial arts mess mixes Russell Crowe’s rogue soldier, Lucy Liu’s deadly brothel, and CGI gore that’s more laughable than lethal. Is this a cult classic or total trash? The action’s as rusty as the fists themselves.

Fri, 09 May 2025 05:00:00 -0000

Eddie Murphy’s back as Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop II (1987), but this sequel’s a hot mess of ‘80s cheese! He’s chasing a boring villain (Jürgen Prochnow, yawn) through old barns, stolen mansions, and the flimsiest “Alphabet Crimes” plot ever. The synth music slaps, and Eddie is always amazing, but the script? Not so much. Is this a nostalgic gem or total trash?

JCVD plays Chance Boudreaux, a Cajun drifter who kicks ass, punches snakes, and rocks denim like it’s a religion. Lance Henriksen chews scenery as the big bad, while Wilford Brimley’s moonshine uncle steals the show with an accent worse than the plot.

#202 - Willow (1988)

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 05:00:00 -0000

Before Lord of the Rings ruled the fantasy world, there was Willow (1988)—a tale of wizards, warriors, and what has to be the hungriest baby of all time. Warwick Davis plays a farmer-turned-hero, Val Kilmer swaggers in as a rogue swordsman, and together, they take on an evil queen, sketchy magic, and an angry guy named Kael. It’s got action, adventure, and enough ‘80s charm to make you forgive the occasional awkward blue screen. Is it an underrated fantasy gem or just Diet Lord of the Rings?

#201 Airheads (1994)

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 05:00:00 -0000

When a band can’t get their demo played, there’s only one logical solution—take a radio station hostage. Airheads (1994) follows three starving rockers armed with water guns and zero brain cells as they stumble their way into the most chaotic publicity stunt ever. Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and Adam Sandler play the The Lone Rangers (yes, I know), and somehow, they’re still not the dumbest people in the room. Does it rock? Does it bomb? Either way, it’s gonna get loud.

#200 - Armageddon (1998)

Fri, 07 Mar 2025 06:38:00 -0000

What’s the best way to stop an asteroid from destroying Earth? According to Armageddon (1998), it’s training oil drillers to be astronauts. Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, and a team of blue-collar misfits blast off to save the world with power tools, slow-motion walks, and lots of jump cuts. It’s big, loud, and completely ridiculous—just how Michael Bay likes it. Does it stand up to the test of time? Let’s fire up the Aerosmith and find out.

#199 - Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001)

Fri, 28 Feb 2025 06:00:00 -0000

Snoogans! Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is what happens when two foul-mouthed stoners go on a cross-country road trip to stop Hollywood from ruining their comic book alter egos.

It’s got everything—cameos, fourth-wall breaks, a chimp sidekick, and more inside jokes than a Kevin Smith fan convention. The plot barely matters, but who cares when the movie is this ridiculous? Is it dumb? Absolutely. Is it hilarious? Also yes. So grab some snacks (you know the kind) and join us for a deep dive into this absurd cult classic.

#198 - Starship Troopers (1997)

Fri, 21 Feb 2025 06:00:00 -0000

Everyone listens to this episode, and no one quits. Would you like to know more? Starship Troopers (1997) is part sci-fi action, part satire, and all-out bug-squashing ridiculousness.

The future is bright if you love propaganda, giant alien insects, and soldiers who look like they just walked off a soap opera set. It’s got over-the-top action, questionable military strategy, and dialogue so stiff it has to be government-issued.

#197 - Vegas Vacation (1997)

Fri, 14 Feb 2025 06:00:00 -0000

The Griswolds are back, and this time, they’re taking on Sin City. Vegas Vacation (1997) throws Clark, Ellen, and the kids into a whirlwind of bad bets, worse luck, and Cousin Eddie being… well, Cousin Eddie. Clark gets hooked on gambling, Rusty turns into a high-rolling con man, and somehow, Wayne Newton tries to steal Ellen. It’s chaotic, ridiculous, and proof that maybe the Griswolds should just stay home.

#196 - The Fast and the Furious (2001)

Fri, 07 Feb 2025 06:00:00 -0000

It started with DVD players and street races—who knew it would lead to cars in space? The Fast and the Furious (2001) gave us 4 minute nitrous-fueled drag races, and Vin Diesel growling about family before it was a meme. Paul Walker plays an LAPD officer trying to bust a gang of high-speed criminals but ends up in a bromance with Dom Toretto instead. It’s got muscle cars, bad decisions, and dialogue that shifts harder than a tricked-out Civic.

#195 - No Escape (1994)

Fri, 31 Jan 2025 06:00:00 -0000

Welcome to the future—where prisons are just islands full of murderers, and Ray Liotta is not having it. No Escape (1994) throws a disgraced Marine onto a lawless island, where survival means teaming up with the good convicts to fight the really bad ones. It’s part Mad Max, part Lord of the Flies, and all ‘90s action insanity. With explosions, jungle warfare, and one-liners delivered at maximum intensity, this movie asks: What if Cast Away had way more knives?

#194 - The Punisher (2004)

Fri, 24 Jan 2025 08:05:00 -0000

When the system fails, Frank Castle takes matters—and a whole lot of ammo—into his own hands. The Punisher (2004) delivers explosions, revenge, and enough brooding to last a lifetime. Thomas Jane brings the pain, John Travolta brings the overacting, and somewhere in between, there’s a popsicle torture scene we’re still trying to figure out. Is it the gritty revenge flick we needed, or just two hours of Castle frowning in a leather vest?

Let’s break it down, one bullet at a time.

A magical scroll, a kung fu monk, and Sean William Scott—what could go wrong? In Bulletproof Monk, a centuries-old warrior teams up with a pickpocket to save the world from bad guys who really want that scroll. It’s got gravity-defying stunts, a plot full of holes, and dialogue that’ll make you cringe. But somehow, it’s still weirdly fun. Join us as we unpack this mix of kung fu, comedy, and early 2000s chaos.

#192 - Ninja III: The Domination (1984)

Fri, 10 Jan 2025 06:00:00 -0000

What do ninjas, aerobics, and supernatural possession have in common? Absolutely nothing. In Ninja III: The Domination, a ninja’s spirit takes over an aerobics instructor, turning her into a vengeance machine and she starts taking cops out like it's her day job. It’s wall-climbing, sword-swinging chaos with a side of ‘80s cheese. Does it make sense? Nope. Is it awesome? You bet.

#191 - Species (1995)

Fri, 03 Jan 2025 06:00:00 -0000

What happens when the government plays matchmaker with alien DNA? You get Species, a movie where the science is shaky, the decisions are worse, and the alien just wants to settle down and start a family—by any means necessary. Sil is on the loose, and it’s up to a team of scientists, a mercenary, and a guy who “feels vibes” to track her down. Spoiler: they’re not great at their jobs. Is it scary? Kind of. Is it ridiculous? Absolutely. Is it entertaining? You bet. So grab a seat, and let’s dig into one of the wildest sci-fi thrillers of the decade.

#190 - Borderlands (2024)

Fri, 20 Dec 2024 06:00:00 -0000

You may think that you're the heroes of this little adventure, but you're not. Borderlands, when it was released, was met with a firestorm of negativity from fans of the game to general audience members that even people who have never seen it assume it's terrible. Here, we amass a small group of people, some who played the games and some who didn't to see if it really deserves it's terrible reputation. Kevin Black, Jamie Lee Curtis, Cate Blanchett and Jack Black all signed onto what they though would be their next franchise, and here we pick pu the pieces of the aftermath.

Fri, 13 Dec 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Hail to the king, baby! This week, we’re cracking open the Necronomicon (but definitely saying the words properly) to dive into Army of Darkness. Sam Raimi’s third entry in the Evil Dead series is equal parts slapstick comedy, medieval nonsense, and epic one-liners. Join us as we unpack Ash’s journey from a mundane retail employee to chainsaw-handed legend, all while battling Deadites and his own colossal ego. Was this movie a misunderstood gem of B-movie brilliance, or just a skeleton army-sized disaster? Featuring chainsaw etiquette tips, questionable 1300s science, and the ultimate answer to whether Bruce Campbell’s chin alone can carry a franchise.

#188 - Weekend at Bernie's (1989)

Fri, 06 Dec 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Two idiots pretending their boss isn't dead so they can talk to chicks and drink free alcohol. That about sums up the plot, but somehow this movie has stood the test of time and is widely considered a classic by many children of the 80s. The movie proves that a surprising amount of comedy can be wrung out from even the thinest of premises, but does that mean it deserves its spot or has it been horribly overrated by Gen X? Weekend at Bernie's is on the block!

Fri, 29 Nov 2024 06:00:00 -0000

It's a box many remember seeing on Blockbuster shelves back in the 90s, but only the brave actually took Dr. Giggles home and watched it. What they got was an insane movie about a doctor-pun spewing escaped mental patient who collects hearts to perform his own unecessary surgies. What's not to love? Ridiculous moments, horrible acting, fantastic puns, and a Larry Drake performance for the ages!

#186 - National Treasure (2004)

Fri, 22 Nov 2024 06:00:00 -0000

A movie that is beloved by a generation somehow sits with critic scores low enough to put it on our radar. You may be shocked that we are covering National Treasure on our show, but think of this as the silver-lining of critics not being smart enough to recognize a crowd-pleaser when they see one. While it may be universally beloved, that doesn't meant that it has stood the test of time. So it's time to see if National Treasure and Nic Cage are still deserving of being considered national treasures.

If there was a world where human cloning was real, are we going to pretend like Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't one of the first people that we would clone? In The 6th Day we get two Arnolds for the price of one and I couldn't be more excited to talk about this one. It may have flopped at the box office, and started to spell the end for Arnold's dominance at the movie chains, but there is still a lot of fun to be had with this one. Michael Rooker, Robert Duvall round out a great cast and it even has the bad guy from Ghost. What more could you want?

The movie that divided many couples over the last 16 years.

Is it truly the abomination that some have made it out to be? Well, only if you don't like 30 second stare downs between sentences, glittery vampires and the worst baseball scene in movie history. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart took us on a ride, but did we end up anywhere that was worth going?

A tiny doll continues his reign of terror against unsuspecting people that are five times his size. It's honestly impressive how Chucky (Brad Dourif) is able to have success as a pint-sized murderer! This sequel sees him once again chasing down Andy and trying to get out of the doll body that has become his prison. Will he be successful, and is the journey worth of being called a bad movie that rules?

#178 - Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment (1985)

Fri, 27 Sep 2024 05:00:00 -0000

It's the second Police Academy movie, but it's their first assignment, but they already have assignments - my head already hurts. Steve Guttenberg and the gang are back in the first sequel of six, because why let something die when you can milk it for every dollar! A beloved classic of the 80s and many late night watching on Comedy Central - but does it hold up?

MAILBAG: Jason Vorhees in Fast & Furious

Wed, 25 Sep 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Against our better judgement, we gave Bob control over the voicemail machine and he went to town. We touch on dead franchises, Jason joining Fast & Furious, and deal with the masses demanding a Twilight episode this Halloween. There's all that and so much more as people take shots at Bob and Curt almost chokes on his drink when we give Mel a new nickname.

#177 - Slapstick of Another Kind (1982)

Fri, 20 Sep 2024 05:00:00 -0000

There are bad movies, and there are movies so terrible that they transcend the entire genre and end up as mysterious relics to be studied by future generations. Not to take the name of another brilliant podcast, but HOW DID THIS GET MADE? Jerry Lewis and Madeline Kahn star as throbbing-foreheaded space twins in this movie that defies description. Just watch it. I DARE YOU. Or you can just listen to us walk you through it and spare yourself the pain.

#176 - Invasion U.S.A. (1985)

Fri, 13 Sep 2024 05:00:00 -0000

The Russians have invaded, well at least one Russian and a bunch of non-descript terrorists and they are causing trouble nationwide! Will the police stop them? No, unfortunately there isn't a single cop available in the entire country, so we have to call in America's last hope, Matt Hunter aka Chuck Norris. Those he doesn't take down, he'll glare at them until they give up willingly. Is this a classic of the 1980s, or has nostalgia clouded our judgement?

Without John Goodman, they never could have made a Flintstones movie, so does that mean we blame him for this or praise him for this? There's plenty of people on both sides of the fence on whether or not this a Yabba-Dabba-Doo time or just a Doo-Doo time. Even our own hosts can't agree if this is an all time classic or an epic misfire. Time to head to Bedrock and find out.

#174 - The Wizard (1989)

Fri, 30 Aug 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Time to ride some warp whistles right back to the late 80s to California for Video Game Armageddon! Some called it a 2 hour commercial for Nintendo, and while that's hard to argue, does this movie have some heart at it's core that makes it even more than that? We follow Fred Savage as he tries to get his brother to the ultimate video game tournament and all kinds of ridiculousness ensues. Teenage runaways, professional kid-snatchers, angry truckers and a coked out video game MC make this a wild ride.

When Tim Burton hung up the directors hat and handed it over to Joel Schumacher, no one really knew what to expect. What we got was a Batman movie that was very different, but was it bad? There are people who will defend Batman Forever until the ends of the Earth and there are some who still aren't over the toy-selling tone of this movie. It's time to revisit it, so grab some drive-thru because the fat lady is on in five!

#172 - The Last Boy Scout (1991)

Fri, 16 Aug 2024 05:00:00 -0000

This movie has more one-liners than a Rodney Dangerfield set, while still having insane action and peak-form Bruce Willis, so why did it fail? It didn't connect with critics and was an absolute disaster behind the scenes. It's one of those movies people remember but rarely talk about - so it's time to go back and see if Last Boy Scout deserves to be called a bad movie.

Fri, 09 Aug 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Yo Joe! It's time to revisit the divisive live-action debut of the long-running GI Joe cartoon series. Plenty of long-time fans felt that the movie absolutely failed to accurately bring them to the big screen, while others thought it was a fun popcorn flick to be enjoyed with their brains turned off. So let's look back on it and determine whether or not this is lovable trash or just plain trash.

Who was terrorizing their town? Just the regular miners and dock workers! They put the wrong person in charge, and things get out of hand in this mid-70s action flick that is free of logic and shirts, mostly.

Fri, 19 Jul 2024 05:00:00 -0000

It's a movie with a pilot named Maverick, a need for speed, starring a 5'8" actor - but it's not the one you wanted to see, instead, it's NEED FOR SPEED! Aaron Paul jumps into his first big Hollywood leading movie, while Michael Keaton never leaves the room he's in, and Dakota Johnson mails in a few scenes for good measure. That sounds like a recipe for a masterpiece if I ever heard one. Are real car crashes and beautiful race footage enough to save this movie?

#167 - The Boondock Saints (1999)

Fri, 12 Jul 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Is it always safe to go back to the movies you once loved? Boondock Saints upon its DVD release had a period of time when it was beloved by men, both young and semi-young. Many dorm rooms adorned with posters and DVD's passed along. Having had our previous love affair with Boondock Saints, we haven't seen the movie in over 15 years and I'm concerned whether or not I will still love what I find. Sure, Willem Dafoe's performance will age like fine wine, but listen to find out if the rest of it holds up.

Terrible gambling advice aside, is there anything else redeeming about Passenger 57? Critics and audiences have given it a low score, but still, the movie has its die-hard (pun intended) fans. Wesley Snipes gets his first crack at starring in an action movie and shows that he has martial arts chops, but is there any other meat on the bone? Join us as we go scene by scene through this early 90s actioner!

Fri, 28 Jun 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Sho Kosugi made a name for himself starring in ninja movies in the 1980s and after watching this it made us want to dive even deeper into his filmography. This is the third time one of his movies has been covered on our show, but the first in which he is the protagonist. This movie has more ninja gadgets than someone could carry, even though these guys seem to have 100 pockets each. It's 80s cheese mixed with legitimately awesome stunt work and insane plotting. Hope you enjoy it!

Fri, 21 Jun 2024 05:00:00 -0000

The critics hated this Brat-Pack western starring Emilio Estevez, Charlie Sheen, and Kiefer Sutherland, and even though it was a hit enough with audiences to spawn a sequel the critics thought this was just straight 80's cheese, even though it's supposed to be in the 1880s. Does the movie deserve the title of Bad Movie, or is it much better than critics gave it credit for?

Chuck Norris has to head back into Vietnam, beard first to take out bad guys and bring his fellow Americans home. Featuring a smack-talking performance from James Hong and some insane stunts, but is that enough to make this a bad movie that rules?

Ice Cube replaces Kurt Russell, throw in Natasha Henstridge and Jason Statham (with hair!) and you've got the makings for a cult classic! But does the movie deserve a second life? Critics and audiences alike haven't been kind to it, so we take our swing to see if Ghosts of Mars is a bad movie that rules!

Arnold makes every movie better, but what can he do with a live-action Looney Tunes remake like The Villain? Kirk Douglas and Ann-Margret co-star with him as he was just figuring things out acting-wise. Regardless, does our primary thesis still hold water, or is this a cartoon that didn't lean enough into the cartooniness of its premise? Listen along as we go scene-by-scene through this comedy western with Arnold Schwarzenegger!

Even though critics came down on this film hard, most movie-goers gave this movie a TEN!! So who is right? Today we look at Varsity Blues to see if it still holds up as a great football movie, a great teen movie, and a a great James Vanderbeek movie (do such things exist?). At the very least it has an insane performance from Jon Voight with a little bit of Paul Walker sprinkled into the mix. If you dislike football, you don't want this movie!

Fri, 17 May 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Some say this is the greatest Bad movie of all time, up there with The Room & Troll 2, but still, we had never seen Samurai Cop ourselves. Having made our film previously with the same budget, we have a soft spot for micro-budget indies, and this one starring Matt Hannon (later Matt Karedas) and Robert Z'Dar (Tango & Cash) has to be seen to be believed. We delved into this cop movie where they don't really cop. Keep it warm.

#158 Wagons East (1994)

Fri, 10 May 2024 05:00:00 -0000

This movie is like putting the best football players on a team and then they lose to the New York Jets. A seriously stunning cast of actors, featuring John Candy, Richard Lewis, John C. McGinley, Ellen Greene & Charles Rocket just rolled out of bed and decided to make a comedy with the boldest of approaches. What if we don't land a single joke? Sadly, this movie is more remembered for being the last film made by John Candy (Canadian Bacon filmed earlier). James, Rob, Nicole, and Patrick see if they can watch the movie and figure out where it all went wrong.

Fri, 03 May 2024 05:00:00 -0000

The embodiment of "we have Platoon at home", this Cannon Film was a far cry from their normal excess and nonsense as it looks like they tried to make a serious Vietnam movie with Michael Dudikoff (the guy from the American Ninja movies). Then they did the most Cannon thing ever and changed the name after Platoon came out to sound just like it. But is it any good? You'll have to listen to find out!

#156 - P.C.U. (1994)

Fri, 26 Apr 2024 05:00:00 -0000

This prophetic movie may have disappeared (seriously, try and find it), but the legacy of it lives on. Was it a warning to the future that we all ignored, or was it a sign of the times that we just didn't realize was happening 30 long years ago? Jeremy Piven and David Spade star in this college flick about political correctness.

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 05:00:00 -0000

On this episode Ryan declares his love for Wing Commander yet again, we discuss which three movies we'd use to introduce a kid to Spielberg's work, and then we try to put our finger on the x-factor that makes certain big muscle guys, action stars while others fall flat.

#155 Anaconda (1997)

Fri, 19 Apr 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Even though Sir Mix-a-Lot tried to warn us about what would happen if someone had buns, Jennifer Lopez went into the jungle anyway with Ice Cube and Owen Wilson and what do you think happened? A giant snake wreaks havoc on an unsuspecting film crew! Is this one of those movies that's so bad it's great, or is it just bad? What did you think of Anaconda? Let us know!

#154 Cabin Fever (2016)

Fri, 12 Apr 2024 05:00:00 -0000

A remake of the original Cabin Fever from just 14 years ago, because someone was brave enough to ask the question - "what if we did this movie again, but this time it sucked?" After everyone in the room was done clapping they actually made the thing! Same script, worse actors! James, Patrick, Mattila and Curt wade into this nonsense and take you through the movie scene by scene so you don't have to watch it yourself.

#153 Half Past Dead (2002)

Fri, 05 Apr 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Steven Seagal and his prison durag team up with Ja Rule as they both try their best to embarrass themselves in this early 2000s action movie that takes place on Alcatraz. The only people trying to break out are the people that are embarrassed to be in this movie. Because of the time it came out, it does carry a certain charm from that era, and there is lots of ridiculousness to love and roast.

#152 The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997)

Fri, 29 Mar 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Did this movie deserve the beating it got from critics and audiences? The Lost World:Jurassic Park followed up one of the most beloved movies of all time, and it split audiences and critics down the middle. Jeff Goldblum was the only star that returned, and adding in Julianne Moore and Vince Vaughn was a big swing. We walk through this movie scene by scene, as always, roasting the bad and trying to find what was done well before giving our final verdict on Steven Spielberg's The Lost World: Jurassic Park. Make sure to let us know what you thought!

#151 Dragonheart (1996)

Fri, 22 Mar 2024 05:00:00 -0000

Knights of the Old Code! It is time to travel back to 1996 and revisit Dragonheart again to see if it still holds up. This is one of those movies that you either saw as a kid and loved it with all your heart, or you didn't see it until later and maybe it didn't hit quite as hard. How does it hold up 28 years down the line? Featuring Dennis Quaid and his disappearing accent, along with Sean Connery giving his all as the voice of Draco, this one had audiences and critics split. Let us know what you think about Dragonheart!

Mon, 18 Mar 2024 07:42:06 -0000

#150 Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

Fri, 15 Mar 2024 05:00:00 -0000

You either love this movie and have been defending it for the last 8 years, or you checked out back in 2016 as soon as you heard the word, MARTHA!! Either way, people have strong opinions on Batman vs. Superman and our hosts are no different. This film has been hotly debated among our group since before we even had a podcast, which is why it made perfect sense to save this one for one of our big episodes, number 150! The gloves are off and we are going to go through this movie and defend it or destroy it, so no matter what side you're on, you'll be represented here.

#149 Dragon Wars (2007)

Fri, 08 Mar 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Ratings wise this may be the 7th lowest film we've covered, but I'd rather watch almost anything else than this again. Dragon Wars is one of the worst movies ever made, and yet at the time of release was one of the most anticipated Korean films ever to come out. It somehow cleaned up at the international box office, and now it lands in our laps on Bad Movies Rule. Hopefully, you didn't watch it and you just listen to us nuke this thing from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

#148 The Perfect Weapon (1991)

Fri, 01 Mar 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Back in the magical land of the 1990s, Hollywood was turning over every rock they could to find the next great martial arts movie star! Step into the spotlight, Jeff Speakman! A Kenpo master with undeniable skill and technique, but it takes more than that to be a movie star. Let's throw every Asian bad guy from every 80's action movie ever made and see if they can carry him to victory! Featuring incredible fight scenes, and an absurdly mute performance from Mariska Hargitay - listen to the guys decide if this is just straight-up bad or maybe it's a bad movie that rules!

#147 Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999)

Fri, 23 Feb 2024 06:00:00 -0000

While not the first ever made, chronologically first in the saga, and if we had started here we may never have received 8 other sequels. For some that's a good thing, for others, it would be a tragedy. The prequels have been equally praised by the younger generation and destroyed by the older ones, but at its heart is it actually a terrible movie? We go through it scene by scene to see if it deserves the title or not. Not a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, but right here and now.

#146 Laserblast (1978)

Fri, 16 Feb 2024 06:00:00 -0000

This is one of those classic bad movies that's been skewered by the best (MST3K), and it's time that we had our crack at it! The patrons voted for this one and so we're off to the desert to follow Billy as he stumbles around blowing up everything he can with his arm cannon while avoiding bullies and attacks from giant shell-less turtles! Explosions galore, very few answers, and even a couple of shots at Star Wars, it's Laserblast!

#145 Silent Rage (1982)

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Silent Rage is a cross between your standard Chuck Norris beat'em up and a slasher movie, starring one of the inmates from Shawshank Redemption. Chuck Norris finds himself in a full-blown horror movie here, so it's time for BMR to go through this movie scene by scene and see if Chuck pulls it off, or if this one deserves to stay dead and buried!

#144 Double Dragon (1994)

Fri, 02 Feb 2024 06:00:00 -0000

One of the original side-scrolling beat'em ups of the 1980s was turned into a movie, so you can probably guess how that turned out. Mark Dacascos and Scott Wolf star as Jimmy and Billy and they (kind of) kick their way through the gangs of a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles. You've got rampaging mutants that look like part of the male anatomy, Alyssa Milano as a gang leader, and renegade mailmen, but is it a bad movie that rules or just straight-up bad? Double Dragon is on the block!

On this mailbag we debate Batman vs. TMNT, give love to all the truckers out there on the roads, draft a BMR football team and field more hate for Bob, but it's the call that comes in from Arnold singing the hits of yesterday that inspires one of our best performances ever.

#143 Black Moon Rising (1986)

Fri, 26 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Tommy Lee Jones has 72 hours to steal back a rocket car, and he wastes 98% of that time rolling around with Linda Hamilton. Does this heist movie deserve a second look from audiences, who have it rated at a 29% audience score? Or does this rocket car need to drive off a cliff never to show its face again? Nicole, Clint, James, and Bob dive into a scene-by-scene analysis (roast) and take through the entire thing!

#142 Runaway (1984)

Fri, 19 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0000

In an alternate future 1984, Tom Selleck is a beat cop chasing down runaway robots. Gene Simmons (yeah, the dude from KISS) is wreaking havoc with killer robo-spider, and only Tom Selleck and his bulletproof mustache can stop him. Featuring a fantastic performance by Cynthia Rhodes as Tom's partner, Karen Thompson. Does this Michael Crichton-directed thriller pass muster, or is it just another cheesy 80's sci-fi flick?

#141 Jaws 2 (1978)

Fri, 12 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Jaws 2 has been largely rejected by audiences as a cash grab at worst or a low-rent retread of the original at best. The audience's scores are low, but does Jaws 2 deserve a second look? Bob, Ryan, Pat, and James go scene by scene through the sequel to one of the biggest blockbusters of all time to see if it's really a bad movie that rules! Plus a shark eats a helicopter and that's cool, no matter where you're from!

#140 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze (1991)

Fri, 05 Jan 2024 06:00:00 -0000

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze has been blasted by critics, and while it was beloved by children back in the 90s, what do those kids think now? Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello take on the Shredder (or spoiler alert: they don't) and try to save New York one more time, while also learning where they came from! Let's imagine a Ninja Turtle movie where they never use their weapons, but are sticklers for observing the traditional pre-fight donut.

#139 Delta Force 2: The Columbian Connection (1990)

Fri, 29 Dec 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Clint, Mel, James, and Bob are back with Chuck Norris as he face-kicks his way through South America taking on the cartel. Billy Drago plays the perfect early 90s slimeball cocaine mogul as he sends his endless supply of henchmen to take on Chuck before he seizes his mountains of coke. The movie is a complete departure from Delta Force 1 which tried to say something important, it failed, but at least it tried. What do you think of Delta Force 2?

#138 Tremors 3: Back to Perfection (2001)

Fri, 22 Dec 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Stephanie, Joe, and the Mayor are back in Perfection alongside Burt Gummer as he continues to have the worst luck ever. No matter how many killer dirtworms (aka Graboids) he takes out, they seem to follow him all over the world. This time, back in his hometown, will he be able to stop them for good? Given that there are 7 Tremor's movies, I'm guessing no. At least we can have fun roasting all of this ridiculousness along the way.

#137 Reindeer Games (2000)

Fri, 15 Dec 2023 06:00:00 -0000

What if Ben Affleck amid "misses" Forces of Nature and Bounce, made a heist movie that had plot twists on top of its plot twists, featuring an unhinged Gary Sinise and a young (crazy) Charlize Theron? A recipe for success you might think, but Reindeer Games got blasted by critics, and audiences and it bombed financially. Where did it go wrong? It had a great writer and an all-time director John Frankenheimer. Is it time to re-assess Reindeer Games or does it deserve its spot in the garbage heap of 90's cinema?

#136 Santa With Muscles (1996)

Fri, 08 Dec 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Imagine the pitch meeting - "It's Santa Claus, right, but this one has muscles!" PRINT THE MONEY! Now, the rest of us are left to pick up the pieces of Hulk Hogan's Santa With Muscles (1996). Previous Hulk Hogan movies had him playing different versions of himself, and here he attempts to act and play a different character. It goes about as well as you'd expect. Many questions will be answered - how did Mila Kunis bury this performance? How can a lawn ornament bench press 300 pounds? Why is Ed Leslie playing an Asian? We'll pull it all apart, and then give out some awards, including our worst actor award, the "Steve Seagal" Trash Can Full of Dirt.

#135 The One (2001)

Fri, 01 Dec 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Not too many movies out there featuring Jet Li in dreadlocks, but this is where we find ourselves. Even though The One (2001) is rated very low by critics, some swear this is an awesome movie. The movie made us laugh, we're just not sure it was supposed to. It also features one of the best Jet Li fights we've ever seen. We go scene by scene and answer the important questions - how did Jet Li get with Carla Gugino? Why is the only thing different in each parallel universe his hairdo? Why does Jason Statham have hair, and why can't he fight in this? We'll pull it all apart, and then give out some awards, including our worst actor award, the "Steve Seagal" Trash Can Full of Dirt.

#134 Breakin' (1984)

Fri, 24 Nov 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Lace-up your high tops, folks! We're about to journey back to 1984 and witness the classic/catastrophe that is "Breakin'" (1984). Directed by Joel Silberg, who I'm sure has lots of breakdancing experience, this film doesn't have a single cardboard dance floor or Adidas tracksuit.

We will break down the dance moves that somehow pass as the pinnacle of '80s street style. With a great soundtrack but a plot thinner than the spandex in an '80s workout video, "Breakin'" is a time capsule of dance moves and fashion choices that we thought were cool at the time.

But here's the burning question: Does "Breakin'" transcend its retro charm to become a genre-defining classic, or is it just a dance disaster that time forgot? Grab your boombox and join us as we breakdance our way through the laughs, delivering our verdict on Breakin!

#133 The Net (1995)

Fri, 17 Nov 2023 06:00:00 -0000

BMR delves into the '90s cyber-thriller abyss as we unravel the tangled web of "The Net" (1995). Directed by Irwin Winkler, this film shows us floppy disks that could destroy the world and the glorious 90s version of the internet.

Join us as we hack our way through the implausible scenario of Sandra Bullock's loner shut-in who's unable to get a date. In this episode, we are so split we spend half the time arguing about the complexity of ordering pizza online. "The Net" is a nostalgic trip back to the days when we feared the World Wide Web more than appreciated it.

Does "The Net" transcend its '90s nostalgia and remain a taut tech thriller, or is it just a pixelated relic in the annals of cyber cinema? Join us as we surf the net with laughter, delivering our verdict on whether "The Net" is a tech-thriller masterpiece or a dial-up era dud.

#132 Terminator Salvation (2009)

Fri, 10 Nov 2023 06:00:00 -0000

If 'Terminator Salvation' had a user manual, it would be one page long: 'Don't let the machines win. Also, don't yell at the crew.' Here we dive headfirst into the mayhem of "Terminator Salvation." Directed by McG, this film promises killer robots, Christian Bale's infamous on-set rant, and the eternal question: 'How did Skynet ever become self-aware but not aware enough to know where the resistance is?'

With a plot that's as tangled as a bunch of tangled wires, "Terminator Salvation" is a rollercoaster ride of questionable decisions. Can robots go to therapy? They may want to after being in this movie.

But here's the burning question: Does "Terminator Salvation" rise like a Phoenix (or Terminator) from the ashes of its mixed reviews, or is it just another misstep in the franchise? Join us as we reload our humor circuits, delivering our verdict on whether "Terminator Salvation" is a killer hit or a 'seriously, what were they thinking?' glitch in the matrix.

#131 Yoga Hosers (2016)

Fri, 03 Nov 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Hold onto your maple syrup, folks, because we're diving deep into "Yoga Hosers". Directed by Kevin Smith, this film promises bratwurst Nazis, teenage clerks, and a healthy dose of nepotism.

'Yoga Hosers' is like an inside joke at a party you weren't invited to. You'll chuckle politely, but you'll wonder what you're missing.

But here's the burning question: Does "Yoga Hosers" transcend its absurdity and find a place in the realm of 'so bad, it's good' cinema, or is it just another in a line of flops for this filmmaker? Join us as we stretch our comedic muscles, delivering our verdict on whether "Yoga Hosers" is a downward dog of a movie or a Zen master of hilarity.

#130 Resident Evil (2002)

Fri, 27 Oct 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Prepare for a survival horror experience like no other as we venture into the zombified world of "Resident Evil" (2002) on the Bad Movies Rule Podcast. Directed by Paul W.S. Anderson, this action-horror rollercoaster promises viral outbreaks, and Milla Jovovich kicking zombie dogs in the face.

Join us as we navigate the treacherous halls of the mysterious Hive, where the Umbrella Corporation's secrets and zombies lurk around every corner, but none of the video game characters do. Also, who thought AI-controlled doors were a great idea?

But here's the million-dollar question: Does "Resident Evil" emerge as a blood-soaked triumph in the realm of video game adaptations, or is it just another baffling entry in the world of zombie cinema?

#129 Once Bitten (1985)

Fri, 20 Oct 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Get ready for a bite of the '80s as we sink our teeth into "Once Bitten" (1985). Directed by Howard Storm, this vampire comedy promises more laughs, campy moments, and questionable fashion choices than a decade full of neon and leg warmers.

Join us as we follow the tale of Mark Kendall, played by a young Jim Carrey, who's targeted by a centuries-old vampire in need of some fresh blood. With characters so eccentric, you'd think they were auditioning for an '80s music video, "Once Bitten" is a cinematic time capsule of everything wonderfully wacky about the '80s.

But here's the burning question: Does "Once Bitten" sink its fangs into comedy gold, or is it just another laughable relic from a bygone era? Join us as we unearth the undead hilarity, delivering our verdict on whether "Once Bitten" is a charmingly cheesy hit or a "seriously, what were they thinking?" miss.

#128 Evil Dead 2 (1987)

Fri, 13 Oct 2023 06:00:00 -0000

This week we talk about the 1987 re-quel (?) Evil Dead 2 starring The Chin himself, Bruce Campbell. Seriously, his eyebrow acting in this movie deserved its own Oscar category. At the very least his chin or his hand should have gotten their own acting credits as they carry this movie centered around an evil force terrorizing people in a lonely cabin deep in the woods.

Why did "Father" have to come to this remote cabin to read the Necronomicon? We don't ask salient questions here, we just chop at stuff with our chainsaw hands. This is an important life lesson to learn from this movie, when faced with a problem remove your own hand and replace it with a chainsaw. Problem solved!

#127 Werewolves Within (2021)

Fri, 06 Oct 2023 06:00:00 -0000

In 'Werewolves Within,' the biggest mystery isn't who's the werewolf, it's why anyone in their right mind would want to live in Beaverfield. We're sinking our teeth (hit the pun counter) into "Werewolves Within" (2021) on the Bad Movies Rule Podcast.

Join us as we navigate the residents of Beaverfield, trapped by a snowstorm and one of them is a werewolf. The town's emergency plan in 'Werewolves Within' seems to consist of screaming and running in random directions. If only the characters in this film were as good at detecting werewolves as they are at making bad decisions.

Does "Werewolves Within" claw its way into the hall of fame for hilarious horror comedies, or does it just leave us howling at the absurdity?

#126 The A-Team (2010)

Fri, 29 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Here's the burning question - does "The A-Team" hit the bullseye as a nostalgic tribute to the 80s show, or is it just another loud mindless action movie? The critics hated it but even though the audience liked it, not enough people went to see it to justify a sequel.

We go scene by scene through the movie. Murdock makes a plan and every one of them is about as foolproof as a screen door on a submarine. Murdock's insanity is the only thing that makes sense in this crazy movie, and Face is so smooth he could charm a grizzly bear into bed.

#125 Blind Fury (1989)

Fri, 22 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Get ready for the world of "Blind Fury" (1989). Directed by Phillip Noyce, this action-packed adventure delivers more sword-swinging action and eyebrow-shaving moments than you can imagine.

We follow Rutger Hauer's portrayal of Nick Parker, a blind Vietnam War vet with some seriously impressive sword skills. While he can fight better than sighted people, he ends up stuck in a situation that becomes like a terrible NPC escort mission. With the most henchman I've seen a bad guy have on the payroll in a while, and a plot that takes more detours than your last road trip, "Blind Fury" is a cinematic experience that defies easy categorization.

But here's the big question: Does "Blind Fury" manage to carve out its own unique place in '80s action cinema, or is it just a quirky footnote in the grand history of movies? Join us as we navigate this unpredictable journey, delivering our verdict on whether "Blind Fury" is a surprisingly entertaining hit or a head-scratching "seriously, what were they thinking?" miss.

#124 DOA: Dead or Alive (2006)

Fri, 15 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

It's time to venture into the wild world of "DOA: Dead or Alive" (2006). Directed by Corey Yuen, this action-packed ride promises more kicks, flips, and roller girls than you would typically find on a Saturday night at a karate dojo.

Join us as we follow a group of martial artists, including Jaime Pressly, Holly Valance, and Devon Aoki, on a mission that's part fighting tournament, part volleyball game, and all parts bewildering. With characters so thinly sketched they make a paper doll look three-dimensional and a plot that's about as coherent as a tumble down a flight of stairs.

But here's the ultimate question: Does "DOA: Dead or Alive" rise as a guilty pleasure in the pantheon of martial arts cinema, or is it simply a punchline in the grand joke of cinematic history?

#123 Elektra (2005)

Fri, 08 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Get ready as we dissect "Elektra" (2005) on the Bad Movies Rule Podcast. Directed by Rob Bowman, this flick promises more ninja action, but my step dad made promises too and look where that got us.

Join us as we follow Jennifer Garner's portrayal of Elektra Natchios (not Nachos, sadly), an assassin with supernatural skills that she rarely uses, on a mission that's part NPC escort quest, part fighting F List characters, and all parts perplexing. With villains so dumb, they make you question why you're watching, and a plot trying so hard, it rivals a tween at a sleepover.

But here's the million-dollar question: Does "Elektra" shine as an unintentional comedy gem in the superhero genre, or is it just a punchline in the grand joke of cinematic history? Join us as we slice and dice our way through the madness, delivering our verdict on whether "Elektra" is a hilariously electrifying hit or a super-powered "seriously, what were they thinking?" miss.

#122 The Fog (2005)

Fri, 01 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Get ready to dive into a world where the fog's thicker than your uncle's conspiracy theories – we're about to unravel The Fog (2005). Directed by Rupert Wainwright, this film is so foggy, you'll need a GPS just to find the plot.

Join us as we step into a town where the Fog literally out-acts Tom Welling, Maggie Grace, and Selma Blair. We're talking more mist, less clarity, and a suspense level that's more "wait, what?" than edge-of-your-seat.

But here's the real question: Will The Fog leave us spooked, or just scratching our heads like we're in a daze? Grab your flashlight (and maybe a foghorn, just in case), and join us as we venture into the haze, the haunts, and the hilariously hazy moments of this fog-filled thriller.

#121 Encino Man (1992)

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Don't forget to check out BrianDrawsMovies and use the promo code BADMOVIESRULE for 15% off.

Get ready to dial up your nostalgia, because we're digging deep into the '90s with Encino Man (1992). This flick is a wild ride through teenage awkwardness, caveman confusion, and more cheesy humor than you can shake a club at, along with a surprisingly unlikeable performance from Sean Astin.

Join us on the Bad Movies Rule Podcast as we unearth the hilarity of Brendan Fraser and Pauly Shore taking us on a journey that's part buddy comedy, part prehistoric pandemonium. From the moment we accidentally dig up a frozen caveman in a backyard, you know you're in for a ride that's, well, as unexpected as a caveman in a Los Angeles suburb, even though he seems perfectly fine with it.

But the real question is, does Encino Man still have the chops to rock our socks off, or has it turned into a fossil of cringe-worthy '90s clichés? Grab your slap bracelets and neon windbreakers, because we're diving headfirst into the world of Encino Man to see if this flick is a buried treasure or just another relic of a bygone era.

#120 Red Sonja (1985)

Fri, 18 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Hosts: James Hauser, Curt Mummer, and Ryan Mueller.

The sword-and-sorcery spectacle, Red Sonja (1985) showcases Brigitte Nielsen as the titular character, a warrior with a thirst for vengeance and a wardrobe that's more revealing than practical. While Red Sonja trains tirelessly to avenge her family's murder and save her kingdom (and maybe find actual armor), Lord Kalidor sweeps in with his trademark Austrian accent, ready to take on the villainous Queen Gedren.

Red Sonja - a film where the titular character is just a supporting act to the Austrian Oak that is Arnold Schwarzenegger. So grab your swords (and maybe some hairpins to tame that mane), and join us on this comically unbalanced adventure where even when it's supposed to be her moment, Arnie's just too much to overcome.

#119 Rolling Vengeance (1987)

Fri, 11 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Hosts: (Left to Right) Clint Busch, Curt Mummer, James Hauser, Bob Hauser

In the cinematic gem that defies the laws of logic and truck safety, Rolling Vengeance (1987), we embark on a journey of vengeance that's as ludicrous as it is entertaining. Here, a grieving hero decides that regular revenge isn't enough - he needs a monster truck to settle the score (because why confront your enemies when you can run them over?).

Our protagonist, played by Don Michael Paul, takes the phrase "go big or go home" to heart as he crafts a monstrous four-wheeled avenger capable of crushing both cars and common sense. It's a film that proves when life gives you grief, build a monster truck and smash your problems away.

#118 Constantine (2005)

Fri, 04 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0000

In the dark and devilishly entertaining film, Constantine (2005), we follow the enigmatic John Constantine, portrayed with his signature "whoa" by the one and only Keanu Reeves. Constantine battles demons, angels, and his own charmingly deadpan delivery.

Critics may have been less enchanted than Lucifer himself, but audiences embraced the film's devilish charm. Keanu Reeves' portrayal of the chain-smoking, demon-hunting exorcist may have left some questioning if he was fighting evil or just seeking nicotine, but his cool demeanor won over fans. We have come to answer the question - which one was right? Fans or critics?

Bad Movies Rule takes you on a wild ride of holy water, fiery battles, and a constant stream of one-liners that will leave you laughing and questioning reality. Grab your rosaries and exorcise your doubts and enjoy this episode!

#117 Breaker! Breaker! (1977)

Fri, 28 Jul 2023 06:00:00 -0000

In the timeless masterpiece of cinema, "Breaker! Breaker!" (1977), we are graced with the man who can roundhouse kick his way out of any situation, Chuck Norris. He plays J.D. Dawes, a tough and fearless trucker who takes the law into his own hands (because why wait for the police?).

James, Joe, Farrell, and Mel try to figure out if this movie is a good-bad or just bad-bad. Chuck delivers his lines with the subtlety of a sledgehammer and showcases his martial arts skills that defy the laws of physics (because Chuck Norris jokes are not just jokes, they're facts).

Let us bear witness to Lou Gossett Jr. deliver lines with the gravitas of a sleepwalking senior citizen.

#115 Nick Fury: Agent of Shield (1998)

Fri, 14 Jul 2023 06:00:00 -0000

In the cinematic masterpiece of pure brilliance, Nick Fury: Agent of Shield (1998), we're graced with the presence of David Hasselhoff as the iconic Marvel character. Hoff takes on the role of the gruff and stoic Nick Fury, an agent with an eyepatch and an uncanny ability to deliver lines with the utmost seriousness (or was that unintentional hilarity?). Joined by a leather-clad Lisa Rinna, Fury must protect New York from the diabolical villain, the wonderfully over-the-top Sandra Hess as Viper, and her army of underwhelming henchmen. Will our hero overcome the obstacles, or will he succumb to the power of his own questionable acting choices? Join us as walk you through all of the cringe-worthy dialogue, laughable special effects, and the sheer absurdity of Hasselhoff attempting to be a superhero. Nick Fury: Agent of Shield - because sometimes, even a superhero needs a little "Hoff" to save the day.

#114 The Vindicator (1986)

Fri, 07 Jul 2023 06:00:00 -0000

James, Clint, and the Mayor sit down to dissect this "masterpiece" of '80s sci-fi cinema, The Vindicator (1986) The captivating tale of Carl Lehman, a scientist who becomes the unfortunate victim of a tragic lab accident (cue dramatic music). But fear not, for the wonders of monkey-based corporate science come to the rescue! In a stroke of genius, they transform Carl into a bionic man (because movie scientists will never learn not to play God). Now, armed with superhuman strength and endurance, our bionic protagonist embarks on a mission fueled by the most profound of motivations: revenge! Watch as Carl, with all the emotional depth of a rusty tin can, battles the villains responsible for his predicament. Also, his ex-best friend tries to get with his smoking-hot wife.

Starring a bunch of Canadians, Pam Grier, and Stan Winston made the suit, so that's good.

You either love it or hate it, because let's face it, there's no middle ground when it comes to Daredevil. So suit up (preferably not in red leather), and join us as we navigate the treacherous waters of this divisive superhero flick because sometimes, even heroes can't save a movie from its own flaws.

Join us on this hilarious episode as we unravel the jaw-dropping tale of a man and his deformed, vengeance-seeking conjoined twin brother. From the laughably low-budget effects to the cringe-worthy dialogue, this '80s cult classic has it all (if by "all" you mean questionable stop motion and a vomit-inducing final scene). Let's face it, there's nothing quite like a severed twin wreaking havoc in the Big Apple. So brace yourself for a wild rollercoaster ride of cinematic weirdness and join us as we dissect the horror-comedy that proves sometimes the best bad movies are the ones you never saw coming.

Looking to cash in on the 80's trend of stand-up comedians starring in movies, The Wrong Guys scours the C-list for a film about a group of grown men trying to relive their Cub Scout glory days. But in reality, it's just a story about a six-foot-tall man-baby almost getting himself and his friends killed by John Goodman in the woods.

Starring Louie Anderson, Richard Lewis, and John Goodman, the movie is a mess of awkward jokes, cheesy slapstick humor, and wooden acting. Still, it has its charms and features a bonkers final 30 minutes.

Fri, 24 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0000

This is the movie that is brought up almost every time I tell people we have a bad movie podcast. They seem to believe this to be the perfect bad movie. Watching Rubber (2010) is an experience, but we're not sure it's a good one, but maybe one best suited for torturing your friends. Is there anything redeeming about this killer tire movie? Listen and find out!

#98 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

Fri, 17 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0000

A childhood classic of many 80s and 90s kids, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has long been held as a great movie. Sometimes though, when you go back, it's not like it used to be. Does this movie hold up? Or is it time to admit what may be painful and that this is far worse than we remember? Listen to find out our take on this classic kids' movie from 1990!

Fri, 10 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Stallone dons the sunglasses be it outside or inside, sticks a matchstick in his mouth and becomes the Cobra, Marion Cobretti. This 80s cop movie has been crushed by critics and we are here to decide whether or not they are wrong.

#96 Captain America (1990)

Fri, 03 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Imagine Captain America except he couldn't do it all day and he wasn't with you until the end of the line. This is a low-budget, Albert Pyun directed film that bears little resemblance to the Captain America movies of the MCU. But is it bad? The film has lots of supporters so we try and see if the critics were wrong and if this is actually a bad movie that rules.

#95 The Last Stand (2013)

Fri, 24 Feb 2023 06:00:00 -0000

After 10 years away from acting to be the governor of California, The Last Stand was Arnold's comeback movie. It had a lukewarm response, perhaps because people weren't ready for Arnold to be an old man. This movie definitely kicked off the "Old Man" phase of his career, and we try and see if it's as bad as they say, or if it actually rules.

#94 The Last Starfighter (1984)

Fri, 17 Feb 2023 06:00:00 -0000

The ultimate wish-fulfillment movie for gamers everywhere when it came out. Do the story and the movie still hold up today? Imagine being so good at a video game that aliens would come and recruit you to fight for the safety of the galaxy. Is the Last Starfighter a product of the 80s and stuck in that time, or is it a timeless classic? We revisit it now as adults to see if it holds up.

We are seven years late but we finally got around to watching Kung Fury, and this is our reaction/review. Joined by a special guest, Matt Mulholland, we take a deep dive into this ridiculous love letter to 80s action! (Plus Arnold is going to be in the sequel!)

Imagine if you wanted to make your own Terminator movie, but you only had $5 dollars and instead of Arnold you had the guy from the Falcon Crest soap opera. Daniel Greene stars in this Italian-made action rip off cyborg post-apocalyptic chase movie with some arm wrestling thrown in. If you haven't seen it, we'll walk you through it scene by scene.

Johnny 5 is alive for another movie and this time he is rolling around Unnamed US City looking for input. The only other cast member coming back from the original was Fisher Stevens as Ben, and this time they added Michael McKean to the mix. Does all of this make for a terrible movie, or is there something special about this sequel?

Also known as Inferno, this desert based romp for Jean Claude Van Damme starts with a stolen motorcycle and then it ends with a lot of people getting kicked in the face. Danny Trejo gives him a foot massage and the rest of the desert pays for their transgressions. What do the guys make of this strange remake of Yojimbo?

Fri, 20 Jan 2023 06:00:00 -0000

One year before he would become John Wick, Keanu Reeves starred in this retelling of a true story that absolutely bombed at the box office. Critics almost universally panned it, but audiences have been split. Today we go through this thing scene by scene and ultimately try to determine if this movie is just straight trash, or actually good. At the very least, it could just be a bad movies that rules.

Fri, 13 Jan 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Clint Eastwood teamed up with pre-Tiger Blood Charlie Sheen to take on a German (?) Raul Julia and Sonia Braga. This one sticks out as the rare Eastwood-directed film to not be treated well by critics, but with such an amazing cast and director, how can it possibly be bad? Besides, this movie has one of the craziest scenes we've ever seen!

An American Ninja movie without Michael Dudikoff? Well, surely that means that Steve James will step into the lead role. NOPE! It's time for a new American Ninja David Bradley to step in and fill the Great Wooden One's shoes. This time the bad guys have engineered a virus that turns people into zombie ninjas.

Disney wanted to make a movie about a globe-trotting super spy, but instead of a tuxedo-wearing martini-drinker, they went with a pajama-clad super hero wannbe. Sounds like a fantastic choice on paper, but in execution did it work? James, Curt, Joe and Mueller all do their best to walk through this gem and see if it's a Bad Movie that rules.

Solarbabies is a sports-themed (?) post apocolyptic young adult fantasy about roller skating adolescents who befriend a giant marble. Yes, the premise is crazy, but is it a bad movie? It does have it's charms, and here Mueller, James and Mel all try to see if it's actually any good. How bad could it be if Jami Gertz is in it?

Tom Arnold "stars" in this "movie" based on the old television show that had no color but at least it had soul, and presumably some laughs! Some people love this movie and some people aren't really sure how or why this one was made.

We go back and revisit a movie that we liked when we were 20, but is it still funny in our 40s? We brought along a teenager just in case we were too out of touch. This is a stoner comedy featuring two lovable losers, played by Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott. Surprised to see some other recognizable faces there as well like Jennifer Garner and Donkey Lips!

Sylvester Stallone, goaded into this by Arnold Schwarzenegger, stars as a neurotic cop who is terrorized by his mother, one of the Golden Girls, Estelle Getty. For a long time thought of as Stallone's worse, but does it deserve it's reputation. The final poll of our panel may be a surprise.

#69 The Quest (1996)

Fri, 26 Aug 2022 06:00:00 -0000

James, Clint, Joe and Ry Mueller are taking a look at yet another Jean Claude Van-Damme movie, The Quest (1996). The story of Chris Dubois is one that seems to have flown under the radar in some places - is it a straight rip-off of Bloodsport? Is it a terrible attempt at a swashbuckling continent hopping adventure? Would this be better if Arnold were in it?

The movie that for a long time was synonymous with the word "bomb". Is it the piece of trash that history claims or is it time for a reappraisal? James, Ryan Mueller and guest host Jim Frier (first timer!) take a look at the movie that starred Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty.

Chuck Norris and way-too-old-to-be-playing-this-part Lee Marvin team up to take on the suddenly Middle Eastern Robert Forster in the hijack movie that ripped its plot right from the headlines. This was also Clint's first time seeing a Chuck Norris movie, and is left wondering what all the fuss is about. C'mon! It's got a rocket firing motorcycle!

In a future where war has been outlawed, nations now settle disputes via one on one combat with soldiers piloting giant robots. This is low budget, but there's something oddly satisfying about the movie and how it goes about navigating its ridiculous premise.

Director and Writer, Kurt Wimmer, created the nerdiest martial art ever in his garage and then decided to make a movie about it starring Christian Bale. There's a lot to like about it, and a lot that makes absolutely no sense. The critics hated it, and in this episode, the guys try to figure out if they are right.

Oliver Stone thought it was going to ruin the film's release. It ended up being a cult classic, but is it any good?

#56 Major Payne (1995)

Fri, 27 May 2022 06:00:00 -0000

Daman Wayans first big star vehicle. The critics hated it and deemed it "bad" but this movie seems to be beloved by the people. Why, is a completely different question - because I'm not so sure it's aged all that well. Comedy in the 90s was about loosely built plots constructed around big (sometimes annoying) characters. Then let the laughs commence. The four of us were pretty split, but I wonder what you think?

A movie that seemingly has everything - post apocalyptic setting, Lori Petty dialed to 11, and Ice-T as a mutant kangaroo - somehow still managed to be a giant smoking failure of a comic book movie when it came out. Now it has a lot of fans, but are they right? Is this a bad movie that rules or just a bad movie?

Sometimes also known as American Warrior - this movie features one of the worst performances by a leading man in BMR history. This is the first of five movies in the series and after sitting through this one we are at the same time excited and terrified to watch the other four. One thing we are confident in, is that no ninjas were injured in the making this movie, because it was clear that no actual ninjas appeared.

I don't know - Christopher Lloyd fights rasta-aliens who arrive in a giant space coconut while Robocop actor (Peter Weller) and a cowboy-clad Jeff Goldblum run around trying to heal an inter-dimensional rift. Does that help?

For a long time this movie has been the punching bag of Hollywood and held up as an example of a big budget flop. The BMR crew takes a look back at Waterworld to see if it truly deserves to still be a punchline, or with time and age has the movie actually become something much more - is it actually good? Water Costner fights a greasy Dennis Hopper in this post-apocalyptic film set 500 years in the future, which also still has totally still functioning jet-skis.

This is one of those movies that was always on back in the day, but still fuzzy in our memories. Was it actually funny, or were we just up late and in the mood to laugh at anything? We revisit this movie that was buried in a year packed with classic releases to see if it's deserving of more recognition. Perhaps this movie should have been nominated instead of Pulp Fiction or Shawshank Redemption?

#41 Winners Take All (1987)

Fri, 11 Feb 2022 06:01:00 -0000

Never before has a movie surprised us as much as Winners Take All. A seemingly throw away 80s movies about a bunch of bros riding dirt bikes actually turned out to be surprising engrossing. The only returning cast member from a previous Bad Movies Rule episode is Deborah Richter who was in Cyborg. Don Michael Paul (the future director) and Kathleen York star in this admittedly cheesy but awesome bike flick.

The guests that join James Hauser for this episode are Clint and Joe (who also covered RAD, the other bike movie BMR covered), and joining them is Ryan M. Did the guys like it as much as James?

As with every episode, we walk you through the movie so even if you haven't seen it before, you can follow along with us. We give out the Will Patton award for intensity, the trash can full of dirt award to the worst actor and name our top 3 performances.

In this deep dive into Ernest's 2nd theatrical release we discover that a love of Ernest is tied to the age at which you first found him. While we're grateful to Ernest every year we celebrate Christmas since he saved it 33 years ago, one of our hosts doesn't understand what all the hype if about.

#31 Air America (1990)

Fri, 26 Nov 2021 07:15:00 -0000

This was the most heated any of our discussion have ever gotten. Who knew it would be about Air America - one that is difficult to rate as it has the pieces present to be a much better movie than it given credit for. Do you love it? Why is it so poorly rated? Do you think Mel Gibson and Robert Downey Jr had great chemistry? We'd love to hear from you!

#30 Gymkata (1985)

Fri, 19 Nov 2021 07:16:00 -0000

This episode goes off the rails at multiple points, because the BMR crew can't keep it together while discussing the worst martial arts movie to feature gymnastics. Gymkata starred a very talented gymnast, Kurt Thomas, who was supposed to blend his talents with karate to strike fear into his opponents, but the results are largely hilarious.

The BMR crew dives into the 1996 action movie, Broken Arrow directed by John Woo and starring John Travolta. Legend says by the time the movie was done shooting not a single piece of scenery remained. Travolta had chewed it all. AIN'T IT COOL?????

Fri, 05 Nov 2021 06:01:00 -0000

On this episode of Bad Movies Rule we take a look at the 1982 cult classic Beastmaster starring Marc Singer and Tanya Roberts, along with Rip Torn.

This movies is a bit of a fever dream for us as we only had vague recollections from seeing it as kids. The re-watch did not disappoint, this movie is insane in all of the best ways. We walk you through the movie and we also give out our coveted awards: Top 3 Performers, The Will Patton award, and The Trash Can Full of Dirt.

Fri, 29 Oct 2021 06:01:00 -0000

Our first Halloween episode reviewing Killer Klowns from Outer Space. This one has to be on the Mount Rushmore of bad horror movies. The movie is about Mike Tobacco (his name, not a joke) and Debbie Stone as they run from giant insane omnipotent clowns. What's not to like?

As always we give out our Will Patton Award, the Trash Can Full of Dirt Award and Top 3 Performers.

Fri, 22 Oct 2021 06:01:00 -0000

In the early 80's there existed two Conan movies. One was good and the other was Conan the Destroyer. A movie that I throughly enjoy, but from an objective standpoint is hard to defend as a good movie. We take our best shot. Also, Malak was the worst character maybe ever. Listen and let us know what you think of this movie via our email below. Which actor deserves to win our coveted Trash Can Full of Dirt award?

#25 The Postman (1997)

Fri, 15 Oct 2021 06:01:00 -0000

The movie that was famous for being a financial failure gets a chance at redemption. Is this the bad movies that people have claimed, or is there a diamond under all of the rough parts? Also, after 24 episodes of handing out an award named after Will Patton, we finally are talking about a film featuring an wonderfully intense performance from the man himself. There's so much to love, and we dream about what could have been. As always we dissect the film and then give out some awards to the (mostly) outstanding cast.

#24 The Last Dragon (1985)

Fri, 08 Oct 2021 06:30:00 -0000

The greatest martial arts movie to ever feature glowing martial artists, Bruce Lee's belt buckle and the kid from Surf Ninjas. This 80s gem is almost as bonkers as whatever the filmmakers were on when they put this thing together. It's hilarious, the final fight scene is actually well done, and it's 100% rewatchable. But is it a good movie? Listen to the BMR crew trying to figure that out. As always they give out the Will Patton award, the Trash Can Full of Dirt award, and crown the top 3 performances in the movie.

#23 Office Space (1999)

Fri, 01 Oct 2021 06:30:00 -0000

On a podcast that celebrates the movies of the common people, this is a love letter to underappreciated employees across the globe. Upon release, it was dismissed by critics and the award givers ignored it. It was regular people who found and elevated this movie to an all-time classic. So what do the experts know?? We examine Office Space to dig through all the reasons why this film has stood the test of time. The main reason: John C. McGinley.

Fri, 24 Sep 2021 06:01:00 -0000

This was the movie that saw Leslie Neilsen's magic start to wane. Was it still funny? In parts, but it was mostly awful. We take a look at the first of the worst to dotted the end of his filmography. We also give away a brand new award in our final segment. Also, during awards time, things get a little crazy and what happens can only be referred to as the Flip-Flop incident

Fri, 17 Sep 2021 06:01:00 -0000

The Bad Movie Rules crew tackles our third Van Damme movie on this show, the under-watched, under-appreciated gem, Cyborg. I don't know if it was the lack of a marketing budget due to Cannon Films' collapse, but almost no one has seen this movie. Hopefully, listening to us walk you through the movie will make you want to go and seek it out for yourself. What's not to love about a post-apocalyptic karate movie starring Van Damme and a professional surfer playing characters named after guitars?

What's not to love about a shot for shot remake of the Karate Kid but with bikes instead of martial arts? This is an 80s sports movie with all of the cliche's that come along with it. Every note is expected, all of the plot points have been done before, that doesn't mean you can't sit back and enjoy this for simply capturing a simpler time in our lives.

This movie isn't bad, it didn't bomb - we are breaking our rules just so we can talk about one of our favorite movies of all time. This movie is perfect, but we did find one or two things to nitpick. Which actor in this all-star cast did our panel pick as the best performer? You'll have to listen to find out.

Do you love movies about giant people-drinking predatory octopi who chase actors around who are either over-acting to the max or completely underselling what is happening? Then this is the movie for you - equal parts gross and eye-rolling, we love this movie for all the wrong reasons. Treat William, Kevin Conroy, Famke Jansen and Wes Studi star in this (almost) Harrison Ford vehicle.

Fri, 13 Aug 2021 14:21:00 -0000

Don't expect us to run through a lot of Steven Seagal movies because there's very few that I can stand to sit through. Hard to Kill however, has a special place in my heart from my young adult life. I watched this movie way too many times. Now coming back to it for the first time in at least 10 or 15 years has made me realize that it's not nearly as good as I remember, but it's still awesome and highly quotable. I enjoyed walking back down memory lane, so join us for a fantastic episode about this ridiculous movie.

#15 Masters of the Universe (1987)

Fri, 06 Aug 2021 07:00:00 -0000

I have the power! That might have been the catchphrase but by the time production on this movie was over that phrase took on a whole new meaning. Did this movie, which did everything in its power to veer away from the source material, work in any way shape or form? Listen to the BMR crew discuss this 80's movie based off a cartoon that was based off of a toy line. How could it go wrong?

#14 Three Amigos! (1986)

Fri, 30 Jul 2021 07:00:00 -0000

The first in the "actors-being-forced-into-real-scenarios" movies, and is considered by some to be a comedy classic. Although there are some even in the cast who think this is one of the worst movies they ever made. Does this film stand up to the test of time? Is it a bad movie that rules or just a bad movie? Rob King and Curt Mummer (both actors themselves) join me to dissect the film and break down what worked and what didn't with this 80's comedy. We'll walk you all the way through it, and we don't need an invisible swordsman to show the way (he's dead anyway).

#13 Megaforce (1983)

Fri, 23 Jul 2021 08:00:00 -0000

Tight guys in tight clothes doing tight things. That is Megaforce - it's as if the movie was written by a ten year old playing with his Hot Wheels in the sandbox. Have you ever seen an A-Team episode, now imagine if it was a full length movie, but instead of Mr. T you had Barry Bostwick in a skin tight golden suit. Does that sound awesome? Then you would love this movie. Even if you have never seen the movie, we will walk you through the train wreck that was Megaforce. Sit back and join the party.

#12 The Fifth Element (1997)

Fri, 16 Jul 2021 08:00:00 -0000

Pleeeese Halp - I used to be so lukewarm on the Fifth Element. Even though I was a big fan of Bruce Willis, at the time this came out I didn't think much of it. It was okay, but I never thought it was worth revisiting. After coming back to it at the suggestion of our first time guest, Jesse Hurst - I have now fallen in love with this movie. This is almost exclusively due to a new found appreciation for Milla Jovovich and her performance in this film, along with the undeniable chemistry between her and Bruce. We were joined by my long time friend and collaborator but also first time guest Nicole Frier and our one of our regulars, the Nebraskan himself, Brady Cox. Some movies that you may have felt one way about, might be worth a second look. I truly believe that certain movies hit different depending on where we are in life when we encounter them.

#11 The Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987)

Fri, 09 Jul 2021 07:00:00 -0000

The movie based on a trading card (which is always a great basis for a movie) was a huge box office flop when it came out. Even though there were thousands of kids who liked the Garbage Pail Kids, they couldn't get them to come see the movie. The truth is it was doomed from the start by a horrible plot (they form a sweat shop to meet a teenage girls demand for a fashion show) or animatronic heads that don't work (nightmare fuel). Whatever it was, this film is a disaster and we try to find a single redeeming quality. Is there a reason that this movie actually rules?

#10 Timecop (1994)

Fri, 02 Jul 2021 07:00:00 -0000

The movie that sees Jean Claude Van Damme roundhouse kick time right in it's stupid face. This is a fun time travel movie even if the majority of the time they are traveling back and forth between an indistinguisable 1994 and 2004. This is much more story-driven than typical JCVD fare, but it's a great movie and a lot of fun, with a great payoff in the final 30 minutes. Give it a watch and then come join us to pull it apart.

Weird Al has only ever done one movie, because the world could only ever handle one Weird Al movie. Everyone on the panel loved this movie, so we walk through the film showering it with praise - this is a movie that bombed in the box office but is beloved by many fans today. Come join the party and have a laugh with us as we talk about the 1989 classic, UHF. Even if you aren't old enough to know what a UHF station is, you will still love this!

#8 Howard the Duck (1986)

Fri, 18 Jun 2021 07:00:00 -0000

The duck that almost sank George Lucas, while also simultaneously being responsible for Pixar's creation. Howard the Duck is a movie that has no idea what it wants to be. Does it want to be a kids movie? A comic book adventure? An 80's sex comedy? It ends up being none of these things, yet somehow ends up with a large cult following 35 years later. We examine the movie and try to find some redeeming qualities, but here's a hint, one of them is not Tim Robbin's performance. Come and have a laugh with us.

#7 Judge Dredd (1995)

Fri, 11 Jun 2021 07:30:00 -0000

Stallone was headlining the last big summer blockbuster of his original run as a top box office draw. There were lots of behind-the-scenes struggles concerning the tone of Judge Dredd and what movie they should make. What is great about 1995's Judge Dredd? What didn't make any sense at all? Was the 1995 version better than the 2012 version? We dive deep into this futuristic Stallone action movie and wonder about Dredd's power fist, and the physics of the Flame Pipe.

#6 Cool As Ice (1991)

Fri, 04 Jun 2021 08:00:00 -0000

One of the most unintentionally hilarious movies to ever be released about a white rapper chasing after a high school horse girl. Yes, this movie is horrible, but it's horrible in the best way possible. I'm a little disappointed in myself for having such a good time watching this and talking about it. So here it is - a stunningly accurate portrayal of the kind of guy a horse girl goes for. Cool as Ice!

Imagine having to fight your last seven podcast hosts before moving on to a new podcast? Would you fight for us? Don't worry, we love you even if you don't love us. Today on the podcast we discuss Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. This movie bombed upon release, but is it bad? Short answer, no. It's incredible and we can't fathom why people didn't go see this movie when it came out. At the time many actors in this cast weren't household names - now many of them are A-List! We give out awards, and pick who each of us believed to be the top 3 performers!

We also ask and answer the most important question - if the 7 evil exes were forced to fight each other, who would emerge victorious?

We discuss the characters, who we loved, and who we'd rather go through a painful surgery then listen to.

We have plenty of praise for the movie that now appears to have been way ahead of it's time. Who will win the coveted Will Patton award and why did this randomly turn into a Warriors knock-off at the end? Come join us and let's discuss Mystery Men.

#3 Suburban Commando (1991)

Fri, 14 May 2021 06:01:00 -0000

The screenwriter for this masterpiece, Frank Cappello joins the guys to discuss the 1991 classic Hulk Hogan movie, Suburban Commando. We break the film down, and then Frank joins us to talk about how much the film changed from his orginal script, along with some behind the scenes story about the making of the film. Did you know it was inspired by an old Sci-Fi Classic from the 50s?

This movie came out when we were 6th graders and so that probably has something to do with why we love it. As always we pick the top performers in the film, break down the best quotes in the script and give out the coveted Will Patton Award.

Also, what wrestler could they remake this movie with today and have it still be just as cheesy? We want to hear from you so feel free to email us at ThisShowIsTrash@gmail.com and follow us on Facebook.com/BadMoviesRule - thank you for listening - we love you!

We also award the Will Patton Award, Top 3 Performances, and Top 5 Quotes from the movie along with trying to figure out what our candy bar codenames would be.
