For movie geeks, by movie geeks.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 88.2

This week we track down an infamous (and still unreleased in the U.S.) Sofa Theater feature: All The Boys Love Mandy Lane. Here we watch the traditional horror structure and stereotypes butt heads with unconventional visuals and an oddly likable title character. But how does it all play out??

“This is a slasher, that’s really more of a shooter.”

WARNING: Mandy Spoilers!! Go watch the movie BEFORE you listen to this episode.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 88.1

You and Mandy?! Yeah right, in your dreams!! Ok, that's true. But after being creeped out by Bryan’s sappy dream, we get to this week’s buzz. Plus, all jokes (about a horse) aside, we go out on an amazing song. (Seriously Mandy, forget that Ryan guy… call me.)

 And once our host woke up, we talk about…

Allison Scagliotti, Sharkarracuda, Daniel Craig, Napalm Death, The Raven, Burning Bright, Bryan romances Mandy (in his dreams), Warehouse 13, pickle juice, Brad Pitt would make a hot zombie, Stargate SG1, Texas popcorn, Will Ferrell’s serious acting, fat MacGyver, World War Z, Hansel and Gretel in 3D!!, Quantum of Solace, going on roadtrips with Wyatt Earp, the man with the largest face ever!, Tiger in the House, painting a night time seascape, Mr. Markie Mark, Snakes on a Train, naked Ramona and Beezus?, Daniel Radcliffe, Selena Gomez eating, ghosts are totally racists, Bob Ross, Earp: Saints for Sinners...and a horse!

Movie Meltdown - Episode 87.2

This week we go completely off the rails as we wrap up the trilogy of terror that is Greedo Bloody Greedo with our Sofa Theater feature: WONDER WOMEN. Silliness ensues. 

And the only thing more ridiculous then the movie discussion, is what happens after that...out of control!                                   

“In the jungle - no pants. That’s a good idea, isn’t it? But they had go-go boots. So that protects at least up to their knee.”

WARNING: We may or may not spoil Wonder Woman, but our feedback conversations will in fact - spoil your brain!
