Filmshake - The ‘90s Movies Podcast
Welcome to Filmshake, your go-to podcast for ’90s movies. From cringe-worthy flops to epic blockbusters, we cover the best and worst films of the most bodacious decade in cinema!
Episodes
We've covered some heavy hitters this first half of 2026: The Matrix. Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Scream. Mannequin Two: On the Move. Yes, this episode, we're covering 1991's $3.8 million-grossing juggernaut sequel that's so big, we had to bring back our old friend, Doug McCambridge, from Good Time Great Movies to help us talk about it. We also somehow talk about the original 1987 Mannequin film, which is a shock, ...
We all go a little mad sometimes, but we've gotta cover 1996's Scream. Our parents are gonna be so mad at us, but it's the most iconic horror film of the 90s, and as we told you in our last episode, we'd be right back! Unfortunately, we can't post any quotes from our second film (which we cover first, and for not as long), Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood. But we can say, Nic ...
Listening to Filmshake, it is suddenly so clear. We will never stop. We will never leave you, never hurt you, never shout at you, or get drunk and hit you, or say we are too busy to spend time with you. We will always be there. In an insane world, we are the sanest choice...so listen as we talk about 1991's Terminator 2: Judgement Day. It's one of the biggest movies of all time, and we're finally covering it! We als...
Prepare yourself for a shock: we're covering 1991's The Rocketeer. The Rocke-who? Oh, for crying out loud, don't you watch 90s movies?! But that's not the only 1991 Jennifer Connelly movie we're covering. Our punishment film is 1991's Career Opportunities. But how can a 1991 film be a punishment if it stars Jennifer Connelly?!

A census taker once tried to test us. We could have eaten his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti, but instead we recorded this Filmshake episode about 1991's Silence of the Lambs, where Nic mostly talks about how much he wants to eat Jordan's liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti. Also, we talk our punishment film, 1994's Silence of the Hams, which is somehow even worse than having your liver eate...
You have come here from all over the world because society has no further use for you. The international prison system has given up all hopes of your rehabilitation. FILMSHAKE will now be your holding pen until your death. Because FILMSHAKE is the only way out. We're talking 1994's action flick, No Escape, possibly a cult classic or possibly a forgettable flop. We also talk our punishment film, 2014's Leprechaun: Or...
Drop that zero and get with the hero podcast that covers 1991's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze and Cool as Ice in the same episode! We're here to schling a schlong and talk about two movies from the same year that both star Vanilla Ice because we're Ice Ice (Shredder Voice) BABIES.

No one can be told what Filmshake is. You have to hear it for yourself, and this episode, we're talking 1999's foundational film, The Matrix...only One of us likes it far more than the other. That means we're about to throwdown like Neo and Agent Smith in the subway for TWO HOURS! But that's not all we talk about. We've also got our punishment film, 2002's Reign of Fire, which we probably hadn't seen since we went t...
It’s the end of the year, and it’s the Christmas season! Filmshake is getting holly jolly and celebrating by covering…1990’sTales From the Darkside?! Hey, the weather outside is frightful, so we might as well talk this television-spinoff horror anthology, featuring Christian Slater versus a mummy, a hitman versus a murderous cat, and a starving artist who falls in love with…Tommy Chon...
Wrong place, wrong time, same Filmshake! We're back and Dying Harder than ever, as we talk 1990's Die Hard 2. One of our host's AOL Instant Messenger handles in the 90's was "John McClane," so there might be a little bias here, Mr. Falcon!
We also talk our punishment film, 1990's punch and kick-fest, Bloodfist II. But AOL's John McClane doesn't find it a punishment at all! He inexplicably loves it! Can our other host...
Ghost. Pretty Woman. Hardware. Robot Jox. When we set out to cover 1990 movies this year, we meant the big ones. We also meant Hardware and Robot Jox. Movies that made hundreds of millions of dollars. Movies that...didn't. Still, our main feature, Richard Stanley's Hardware, is more than worth watching. Not only does it feature a killer robot who leaves behind rivers of gore, but it features themes and cultural...
Seinfeld. The Dick Van Dyke Show. Filmshake. All have reached at least 100 episodes. After six years, we have finally made it. For our 100th episode, we're talking 1990's seminal horror thriller, Jacob's Ladder. Hehe, we said seminal.
We also talk our punishment film, 1990's The Willies. Hehe, we said Willie.
Seinfeld. Dick Van Dyke. Filmshake.
Hehe, we said Dick.

It's not a tumor, it's Filmshake! And we're talking 1990's Kindergarten Cop. Arnie only appeared in 12 movies in the 90's, so we're trying to stay as patient as Chekhov's Ferret in covering them, but now, for the 35th anniversary, it's time to go back to elementary school with the Governator! After all, we don't want to be soft and lack discipline! Speaking of, we're also talking our punishment film, 1990's direct-t...
Throughout the 90s, Disney made big bucks with animated musicals. In 1990, they released a high-quality adventure film that promised a different direction. The 1990 versions of Jordan and Nic loved that movie. The rest of the world ignored it...and its massive flop in the cinematic ocean ensured decades of Disney musicals that haunt our dreams. But for this one episode, we hope we gave 1990s Ducktales the Movie: Tre...
Don't believe Filmshake, we're not the truth. No one could look as good as us. Or maybe we have faces for podcasting. Whatever the case, we're talking 1990's Pretty Woman, the rom-com that stole early 90's Americans' hearts...Did we feel the same...or beg for mercy?
Also, we're talking our punishment movie, 1990's The Forbidden Dance...actually, we're talking about a lot of forbidden things. After five minutes ...
You can't stop the thunder! You can't outrun the thunder! Grab a couple of car rentals and smash them into each other while listening to Filmshake! We're talking 1990's Days of Thunder! Actually, don't do that. We don't have lawyers on our staff and we were just joking! But do listen to this episode. We're also talking Tony Scott's other 1990 flick, Revenge! You can't stop the revenge! You can't outrun the revenge! ...
TAKE THE ELEPHANT! But if not, listen to Filmshake because we're talking 1990's Darkman, a movie where Liam Neeson's face gets melted off. Did it melt our faces off? Well, we laughed at the elephant part.
Also, we talk our punishment film, 1990's Circuitry Man, about someone named Plughead, but who everyone calls Circuitry Man. Also, Nic talks about how he's learning to live...with a lot of things...
We're everyone - ...
Go for it! This is about as home team as Filmshake gets, as we're talking 1990's Rocky V and Lionheart. Stallone and Van Damme in the same episode? How is this even possible? We didn't hear no bell and we're not the wrong bet, that's how! It's all the street fighting, crotch punching you could ever want in one episode! It's Filmshake!

The fine points: diplomacy, compassion, standards, manners, tradition... that's what we're reaching toward. Oh, Filmshake may stumble along the way, but at least we're finally covering 1990's Gremlins 2! It's a full scale panic. Are you having a run on the banks there yet? Well, it's rather brutal here. We're advising our clients to put everything they've got into canned food and shotguns! And listen to Filmshake!
We...
Lions! Tigers! Filmshake! Oh my! We're in town with a few days to kill, and we're talking 1990's Predator 2. Does it even deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Predator 1? Should we even live in a world where we have to say Predator 1? Speaking of out of this world, the villain in our punishment film, 1990s I Come In Peace (Dark Angel), repeats the title throughout the movie, a movie we talk about for so lon...
