The Home Video Hustle

Since 2017, we've watched films both good and bad and discussed them while also sharing our stories and experiences with the films. We joke, sometimes it gets serious, but we always do it in our special way. We rate movies based on how entertained we are, so you may hear some controversial opinions. Follow us on pretty much every social media outlet and even better, show us some love on Patreon.

Mission number 4 with 007 is this week and after Goldfinger, this had a tough act to follow but James has a jetpack this time...That's used in one scene. There is a lot of action though...Underwater. Well, let's give it a shot anyway. It was also WrestleMania weekend, so we got hype for a minute, yes even Anita too. Anita also can't wait for nanomachines. Guess she never played Metal Gear Solid. We'll tell you all about it in the ...

Well, this day had to come eventually. None of us have ever seen Showgirls and i've heard nothing but bad things. I went into it with an open mind and was shocked by what I ended up seeing. Why? Well, just hit that play button and find out. Andrew is on the mic with us this week for his birthday and I guess this was Steve's gift to him. He shares stories from his trip and even got me to go to a club with him, no joke. I also have a...

It's been too long since the last Bond film, it's time to change that and this is considered by most to be one of the best ones in the entire series. Admittedly, I loved this one a a kid but didn't know what the hell was going on with the plot, hopefully looking at it now as a 34-year-old, it will make more sense. Also in this episode, Anita has issues with the physics of statues, Chris reviews the new Will Smith album and the new ...

Anita has been impatiently waiting for us to get back to the Alien series and we're finally finishing up the original Quadrilogy this week. This is a first time watch for Chris as well and many questions were asked and I even noticed a few things, I never thought about before with this film. "Why didn't they know about the acid blood?" "Why did they have three aliens in one cell?" "Why are people still being cocooned if the Queen g...

It's the final week of the Black History Month Marathon for 2025 and to wrap it up, Chris wanted to watch a certified classic of modern filmmaking. Even better, Chris has never seen this before. Even better still, Cameron was able to join us again this week and even better than that, the audio is back to normal this week. The film of course gave us a ton to talk about such as, deer meat, the differences between our childhood tv wat...

At the start, I have to apologize for the audio. Anita and I went back to Ohio for a wedding and we had to get this episode in when we could and the mics were not showing us any love. On a brighter note, Cameron and Andrew were able to join us today and help us discuss a favorite movie from my childhood, How High! We discuss our favorite Wu-Tang Clan members, Cameron furthers his grudges with multiple people and starts new ones, we...

First it was PJ, now it's Chris and Anita because yes folks, they have never seen Beverly Hills Cop before! This needed to be rectified immediately and what better time than during the Black History Month Marathon! It's been a while since I've watched it and I definitely caught some things during this viewing that I never thought about before. We also have a few stories this week, Anita and I give our thoughts on The Big Lebowski a...

The Black History Month Marathon ain't over! Thanks to Markellus from So Wizard Podcast, the three of us finally get to check off a big one. Yes folks, none of us had ever watched Purple Rain before this but we were all familiar with that album. Chris has been dreading this day, but Anita and I were looking forward to it. We review each song as it comes up, Anita gets mad at some hand gestures I made during a certain scene, Chris s...

It's time to wrap up the first month of The Black History Month Marathon and I wanted to show Chris some love and watch something a bit less depressing this time. So, we are going to shed some light on a posse of Black cowboys and neither of us have ever seen this film before. There are a ton of Westerns but not a lot that tell these stories, so it was a lot of fun to see it on screen and make sure this isn't yet another part of ou...

I wanted to give the ladies some shine during the BHM Marathon, so Anita picked the movie this week and she has been wanting to talk about it on the show for a while now. Chris and I had never watched this before the episode but I heard nothing but good things. Well, until I checked out the Wikipedia page at the end of the episode. I actually got Anita to laugh a lot during this episode, even though she says my jokes are bad and so...

You know, them trying to erase and cover up our history is nothing new right? Back in 1923, the town of Rosewood, which was a predominantly Black town was burned to the ground and many of its inhabitants killed because of one person's lie and hatred. It was swept under the rug for decades until someone finally told the story and in 1997, John Singleton made a movie about the tragedy and documented it to celluloid. This was a rough ...

It's my favorite time of the year for the podcast, yes, the Black History Month marathon begins this week and will run from now and into March and for the Month of February, I had an idea. Since there is a subset of people who want to try and erase, bury and withhold our history from the public, all month we are watching Black films, by Black directors about or inspired by real events in Black history. What better way to start than...

The Homie Mike Bagford is back for the second week in a row and this time he brings along his Patreon pick! Thanks to him, Chris and Anita get to see Goodfellas for the very first time! The movie gave us a lot to talk about, so the tangents are minimal, but the conversation was still fun. We laugh at bad acting, the Halle Berry Catwoman movie comes up for some reason, I try and keep Chris and Anita from incriminating themselves on ...

F--K YOU JOEY! Those words will be uttered again because Joey has used his Patreon pick to inflict damage to my co-hosts. I am not new to the world of Neil Breen but Anita and Chris are about to be caught terribly off guard this week. For some reason, the homie Mike Bagford really wanted to be here for this episode, so he is here as well and hopefully can help us figure out what this movie is even about. Anita's love for the So Wiz...

This week's Patreon Pick is an import from our homies over in Canada, Brendan and Nathan! I can honestly say that, if not for them, none of us would probably have ever watched this movie and it would've stayed a foggy memory in my mind from digging through video store discount bins back in the day. Could there be a glimmer of hope, is this a diamond in the rough, is it an under looked gem, one of the hosts may just think so... Supp...

Chris has been gunning for this movie to be on the podcast for a long time now, so much so that he made it his Patreon pick. This is actually only my second time seeing The Mummy! Anita and Chris are super fans though and will probably be mad if I say it sucks. I do remember liking this film though, so let's see if it holds up this time around.

Happy New Year! Back in October when PJ came to visit, we recorded a secret episode that I was holding onto. I figured, what would be a better way to bring in the New Year, than with PJ and I together again and talking about a series that he has no love for, "Star Wars!" We finally made it to the Disney era films and PJ has had hope that he may finally be able to enjoy these now. PJ also learns about mukbang's and Squatty Potty's, ...

It's the last episode of 2024 and the end of the Holiday Hustle! Anita had just finished reading The Shining novel and neither her nor Chris have ever seen the film. Yeah, its not a "Christmas" movie but there's snow, it's winter, it's fine. This is one of my favorite horror films of all time but I have to see what they think about it. We hope you enjoy the show!

Happy Holidays to all and to all, a movie that none of the three of us have seen before! A huge gap in our Christmas and overall film viewing, will be filled today. Anita is not the biggest fan of comedy films, but she loves that holly jolly, so can it win her over? Another surprise, Chris is actually in on the mic with us, as he was in town to celebrate his birthday. We spiked some hot chocolate, went to In-N-Out and kicked back w...

It's a Christmas miracle; PJ is back with us this week! Anita really wanted to watch Last Holiday and PJ agreed. Chris and I have never seen it before, and Anita is hoping our inner Grinch doesn't come out! PJ and I also give our thoughts on the new Kendrick Lamarr album, "GNX," we discuss what we would do if we found out we only had one month to live like Queen Latifah's character in the film, PJ has beef with "shark-coochie" and ...
