Wes Craven didn’t think Freddy Krueger could be a legitimate franchise character. And then the sequel basically printed money, and Wes thought it might be a good idea to jump back in the fray. This time, th...

When we watched the original Nightmare on Elm Street for the show, we were only in our 2nd season and were still relative horror newbies. But it’s finally time to explore the entire Fred Krueger canon, and this week we start with a film that has no right to be as interesting...

Back in our second season in 2018 (?!??!?!) we talked about A Nightmare on Elm Street. We probably feel differently about it now. Check out our long ago review as we gear up for our new October series reviewing Freddy Knife Hands on Macintosh & Maud Haven’t Seen What?!

We’re wrapping up our series with Spike’s most recent joint, traveling to Vietnam for a cross between Apocalypse Now and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. It’s another bold swing in the new era of Spike, but yet again, the balance is all off. When this movie is working, it’s a masterpiece, but...

We’ve jumped ahead to Spike’s new era of films for a movie we absolutely should have seen so much earlier. Why? Because it’s a Spike Lee Joint adapted from one of the most important Greek comedies ever written, and it happens to be pretty hilarious at how...

This week we’ve got a special double feature, with a Spike movie we loved without knowing it was a Spike Lee joint, and one from the past that took a different look at the world of crime. In 2006, Spike dropped...

It’s been so long since we had a proper movie fight on this show, and this week’s movie finally fit the bill. David thinks this is actually a poignant allegory for the tragic events of 9/11 and trying to reckon with those emotions. Diana thinks it’s a pointless movie that ...

It was only a matter of time before Spike Lee decided to make his own ode to basketball. Unfortunately, his script here is just not up to par, which is a shame, because underneath the flash and messy storytelling, there’s a really interesting story about father...

After another Spike masterpiece (one we’ve both seen already), Spike geared up for one of his most personal projects to date. Written as a TV pilot by Spike’s sister Joie and brother Cinqué, Spike reigns everything back in to show a family, both good and bad, l...

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of womanizing, misogyny, gambling.
Spike Lee had the unenviable task of following up one of the greatest movies of all time. And instead of taking a long break or jumping to big budget movies, Spike decided to rein everything back in for another slice of life about another of his many loves - jazz. Granted, his writing efforts were a bit disjointed, a bit ...

Our Spike Lee series continues with, perhaps, Spike’s greatest movie and only his third full-length feature. It’s a movie so poignant and real that it can literally change lives, and we don’t say that lightly. Of course, Hollywood was terrified it would incite violence and riotin...

We’re starting a new director series, and this year we’re watching the films of one of Hollywood’s most controversial and iconic directors: Spike Lee. This week, we check out his first joint, a sex comedy that’s shockingly progressive and thoughtful for its time. It’s refreshing for on...

It wouldn’t be a series on this show without a dud to end things on. 1989 had its fair share of great movies, but it also contained this absolutely terrible piece of work. On paper, this movie should be fantastic: Morgan Freeman, John G. Avildsen of Ro...

We jump from a New York nightmare to a fairy tale, albeit one with some real power plays. This week’s movie is definitely lighter fare, but it's worth realizing just how empowering it was in its time. Secretaries didn’t have the chance to work their way up, and hierarchies only allowed for certain women to make the...

Our 1986 entry for this series is one of the most baffling movies in this series. This movie rivaled none other than Top Gun for the biggest box office win of 1986, and made a handful of Australians truckloads of cash. It lived large as the biggest Australian cultural export to America for nearly 30 years. And it’s a...

1985’s movie is perhaps the role Chevy Chase was born to play. Imagine a man with a shoestring disguise budget, the affable charm of the mediocre white man, and an absolute disdain for everyone around him. That’s Irwin Fletcher, and Chevy is absolutely fantastic in the role. Unfortunately, Hollywood couldn’t escape the thought that they needed...

We step into 1984 with a true children’s classic that was bound to scar so many young minds. Because this week’s movie is a meditation on grief, loss, and how we intertwine with stories to help heal, and it’s also full of really cool practical special effects. But while our direct...

The 80’s Grab Bag continues with a truly promising premise with some very flawed execution. While this movie had the chance to be Ferris Bueller’s Day Off but with a ultra-dark twist, it winds up being a bit of a tepid rehashing of bad teen ideas. And it’s mostly to do with the aw...

We continue our 80’s Grab Bag with the true grandfather of all high fantasy movies, or at least the ultra-violent ones. Before Game of Thrones, before The Witcher, there was one man, bigger than 5 combined and able to crush his enemies, see them driven before him, and listen to th...
