The Ghost and The Darkness (1996)

September 4, 2025 • 106 mins
On today’s episode, we review one of the most overlooked and underrated movies of the 90s.   One of two 90s films about African lions, this movie was pitched as a cross between Lawrence of Arabia and Jaws and it certainly delivers.   We have questions though.   Is Val Kilmer sub-par in this film?   Why is Michael Douglas so cool?  Did these people deserve their fate? We are of course talking about 1996’s The Ghost and the Darkness ...

Street Fighter (1994)

But here we are almost 40 years later, dissecting one of the best bad movies ever made. It caused an irrational fear of soda machines, lawn mowers, drawbridges, trucks and drain pipes.
