Episode 111 ~ Tucker & Dale Vs Evil (2010)

What happens what a horror movie isn't a horror movie but just a wild series of crazy misunderstandings? That's the plot of Tucker & Dale Vs Evil, the cult movie from 2010. Despite its popularity, its never had a sequel and one might wonder why that is? That is because it has something to do with the way the movie itself is.

This is a unique film that uses horror movie conventions to make a humorous twist on the usual tropes. It works well, almost too well, which means it can't ever really be replicated again. Find out why in today's episode!

Episode 110 ~ Detention (2011)

Honestly, I'm not exactly sure how to describe what Detention is. Given it's release, it was a parody of the plethora of faux-deep overindulgent teen movies from the '00s, but it's also kind of a parody of slashers movies from the same period. It's a bit hard to peg.

Outside of its context, the movie is simply nonsensically weird in a way you will either like or not. How effective is it? You'll have to listen to today's episode to find out!

Episode 109 ~ The Last Match (1991)

This is a movie about a football team that illegally infiltrates another country to rescue the daughter of one of their players held on dubious charges. They do not free her gently and not without extreme malice on their part.

That said, there is still a bit more you need to know about the movie. This is an Italian movie from the 1990s, after all. It goes without saying that it will not be a smooth ride. The Last Match is not all sunshine, but it is worth seeing!

Episode 108 ~ Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountain (1983)

Bet you didn't see this one coming!

Today we not only finally dive into a Wuxia movie, but also a Tsui Hark film as well as a Golden Harvest flick! This one is quite well known for being the inspiration for the excellent Big Trouble in Little China as well as countless others to come. But how does it hold up to that film? You might be surprised!

You're definitely not going to guess where this one is going. The '80s were wild, but so were Hong Kong movies. This film will show you by just how much they were!

Episode 107 ~ Dollman (1991)

We're back with more Pyun! This is a clever little actioner with some fun ideas you don't hear too much about. 1991's Dollman is fairly unique even for its time, and one of Albert Pyun's more overlooked flicks.

Puns aside, this is a fun one. Check out today's episode to learn why!

Episode 106 ~ Undefeatable (1993)

Easily Cynthia Rothrock's most infamous movie, there is nothing quite like this insane fever dream of a martial arts and slasher movie mashup. The script is awkward, the direction is helmed by the infamous Godfrey Ho, and it is a tonally bizarre movie.

And despite of all that, it somehow works incredible well at what it's trying to do and is a very engaging watch. Find out what makes Undefeatable such a crazy watch in today's episode! We promise you've never seen anything like this movie.

Episode 105 ~ Prehysteria! (1993)

Time for another odd detour on our ongoing trip! This time it's 1993's Prehysteria!, a film that managed to catch onto the dino craze of the early '90s just in time.

You may or may not remember these family friendly films, but they were quite impressive even for their release period. Does the first and most well known hold up today? You'll just have to check out today's episode to see!
