Episode 196: Use Your Fists

There’s a whole lot of ass-kicking going down this episode in amongst some tender drama and bowling ball boners. Yes, it’s the off-beat mixture of movies you’ve come to expect from GBW – and we have 22 of them for you.

We talk a handful of 2022 films (a couple which make our top tens), Charles Bronson and Nicolas Cage make an appearance, Michael Mann makes his directorial debut, Chris thinks calling Uwe Boll the “worst director ever” is not true, Josh polishes off the PSYCHO franchise, Joan Collins fights off rubbery ants, we get a cool mustached action hero nobody has heard of, and so much more!

Episode 195: The Cool & The Kumite

When you’ve got it, you’ve got it, and in this episode we meet a handful of characters who do. It’s an eccentric mix of twenty-one films making us this episode and it’s sure to make you do the splits between two chairs!

Just some of the films covered include Josh embracing “Noir-vember”, Chris getting DRESSED TO KILL, a mad bomber with a penchant for rollercoasters, Tori Spelling and her psycho boyfriend, us wondering just who thought Yorga was a good name, Nicolas Cage doing his version of TAKEN, a duo of religious themed horror movies, the MF’ing Kumite, and so much more!

WARNING: There are some spoilers during DRESSED TO KILL, so if you don’t wish to hear them skip from about the 1hr55 mark to 2hr06 mark. Word to  your mother.

Episode 194: Clapton Rage!

There’s not a lot that can send us into a ranting mess of rage but, this episode, we manage to get worked up twice!

This time out we cover 20 films including the much maligned HALLOWEEN ENDS, another film noir that delivers the goods, Clint Eastwood in full-on macho/sexist mode, some kids being shot into space, a bonafide John Carpenter classic, the return of Robert Ginty to GBW, us questioning how Bert Convy became famous, RIGHTING WRONGS kicking all sorts of ass, and so much more!

Episode 193: Beware! The Pod

It’s October so that means this episode is definitely skewed towards a certain genre. 

We cover 22 films including getting to see Peter Cushing like we’ve never seen him before, a duo of Blumhouse films that question our faith in them, a coven of 90’s high school witches, a couple of lesser-known films from Fred Olen Ray and Wes Craven, Josh finishing off the Romero zombie series, an early 70’s Japanese goth film, more Jess Franco, and so much more!

Episode 192: Just Hiss It

This episode of GBW we want you to get in touch with your reptile side and give off a good “sssssss” as we talk about nineteen films.

We both journey into the land of Roger Corman produced foreign-made 80’s action, Chris gives his takes on BARBARIAN and PEARL, Josh tells us all about one of his favourite 70’s drive-in flicks, we get down at the disco with Jeff Goldblum, Sho Kosugi uses his ninja skills yet again, we wonder why director Chuck Vincent’s films aren’t easier to come by, Jackie Chan meets a baby, and so much more!

Episode 191: Ridiculous!!

Amongst the sixteen films we cover this time there’s a whole lot of ridiculousness on display. However, don’t think we’re saying that as a negative thing!

This time Leo Fong makes his second appearance in a row, Chris wishes that Ken Wahl could’ve become a big action star, there’s a monster unleashed from a lamp, Michael Keaton brings the psycho, Josh doesn’t really enjoy his SHOCKER revisit, David Mamet meets ultimate fighting, Christopher Walken is a malicious angel, we talk a duo of new horror films and so much more!

Episode 190: Run-on Nostalgia

Nostalgia weighs heavy a few times this episode as we talk about sixteen films.

We watched a duo of documentaries about one of our favourite things (physical media), Josh is introduced to the glory that is Leo Fong, a Satan possessed cobra makes life miserable for a small town, Burt Reynolds and friends once again go on a cross-country race, Dracula’s dog bites a few necks, a noir “classic” doesn’t quite live up to its hype, Jess Franco AND John Waters return to the show and so much more!

Episode 189: Thrown Into Space

What other podcast can you hear your hosts talk about threesomes, parents hiring a clown to terrify their children and things being haphazardly tossed into space?

This time out we bring you 20 films and, man, do they run the gamut. We get slightly disappointed by some documentaries, discuss a duo of slasher flicks (including a murderous football!), there’s some insane “thirst” going on in a couple of the movies, 70’s Martin Sheen proves he’s the best Martin Sheen, Josh revisits one of his all-time favourites CLASS OF 1984,  we get a liberal dose of 80’s sleaze, and so much more!

Episode 188: The Return

We’re baaaaccckkk!! Did you miss us? We missed you.

After a month off for summer vacation, with a side of illness, GBW returns with 22 films for your perusal. Chris checked out Jordan Peele’s NOPE, we have a duo of sequels to original films that are both classics (in their own way), Nicholas Cage takes on Lovecraft, radiation tainted marijuana messes up some high school kids, JJL makes a triumphant return to the show, Josh finally joins the cult of THREE O’CLOCK HIGH, a music festival brings out the worst in humanity, Dennis the Menace gets sleazy, and so much more!

Episode 187: Crazy Girlz!

Women unite! This episode of GBW features a slew of female protagonists who do things their way and don’t give an eff who gets in the way!

19 movies are covered this time including a noir classic, a comedy where rock meets wrestling, a dance competition that gets out of hand, a British prison break flick, Kevin Bacon going white water rafting yet again, a look at Oscar nominated THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD, the nuttiness that is FREEWAY II:  CONFESSIONS OF A TRICKBABY, and so much more!
