Episode 221: Poorly Aged

We’ve got another batch of twenty movies that crossed our eyeballs since the last time we spoke and, as usual, it’s an eccentric batch.

This time out we’ve got Gary Busey at his most unhinged (if that even possible?), we get two non-traditional westerns, some bad 90’s CG rears its ugly head, the sun makes a guy go from jerk to lizard(!?), we visit a haunted asylum, 2023 horror continues to underwhelm us, Sybil Danning can’t motivate this “squad”, a giant octopus causes havoc, and so much more!

Episode 220: Let’s Boogie!

It’s hard to say if the twenty movies we cover this time are the most eccentric batch in a while but they’re certainly all over the place.

This time out we get ready to proclaim “everybody cut, everybody cut”, amble around 70’s Los Angeles with Kris Kristofferson, talk about the Oscar nominated THE ZONE OF INTEREST, learn about love from Sailor and Lula, discover that the key to winning basketball is astrology(??), complain about serial killer movie cash-ins, document Satanic panic, discover a lesser-known Italian action flick, and so much more!

Episode 219: GBW High

We stroll into 2024 with another slab of movies to talk about. Twenty-two of them, in fact.

There’s a whole lot of 2023 on hand as we discuss Yorgos Lanthimos’ POOR THINGS, get “Gojira” with it in GODZILLA MINUS ONE (and more recent releases) but we also stick to our usual diet of oddities, revisits and movies you probably won’t hear about on other podcasts.

These include three films involving high schools, a rampaging giant ape, Lee Van Cleef phoning it in, the legit classic BEN HUR, Pam Grier taking pictures everyone wants, Robert De Niro being a jerk to Liza Minnelli, a fake reality show that involves murdering contestants, a classic Arabian adventure, and so much more!

Episode 218: Peace Out 2023

Happy Holidays from your friends at GBW as we bring you our last episode of 2023.

We cover twenty movies this time including Chris finishing his year long journey into the world of JCVD, Matt Dillon and crew robbing pharmacies, a shirtless Leslie Nielsen being a complete jerk, a 90’s VR martial arts movie that (surprise!) is no good, a moody Val Lewton production, Scorsese doing family drama, two crude comedies, a pervy Paul Naschy, and so much more!

Episode 217: Start the Day

As we head towards the end of 2023 there’s absolutely no chance you’ll get a “best of” episode from us as we’ve been much too busy watching various oddities and exploitation flicks of yesteryear,

Amongst the eighteen films covered this time we get a duo of Christmas horror, two completely different flicks starring an animal, a JCVD team-up that’s not as cool as it could’ve been, one of Eli Roth’s favourite exploitation flicks, Ralph Macchio playing the blues, classic 60’s sci-fi speculation, a military academy you wouldn’t want to attend, and so much more!

Episode 216: No Seconds

Gobble gobble, motherfu… oops, wrong movie!

This time out we discuss 20 movies including Eli Roth’s festive slasher THANKSGIVING, a 50’s noir tells us the dangers of picking up a hitcher, Josh discovers an unseen Lucio Fulci flick, JCVD travels through time, Flash is the saviour of the Universe, Alexander Payne returns with THE HOLDOVERS, we talk a duo of over-the-top craziness, voodoo gets a bad rap, Nazis regret crossing an old dude, and so much more!

Episode 215: In That Damn Movie

This episode of GBW is brought to you by a righteous heavy metal soundtrack as we thrash our way through 19 movies.

We learn that you really can have a chainsaw massacre anywhere, we watched a trio of completely different tropical island survival stories, Bobby Rhodes battles some gnarly DEMONS, 80’s Jackie Chan fails to cross over to American shores, Chris got to see Wes Craven’s masterpiece A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET on a big screen, SOV zombies invade our home turf, Glenn Ford gets embroiled in criminal adventures, and so much more!

Episode 214: Turning the Other Cheek

It’s still October and we here at GBW are continuing our commitment to watch more horror movies than usual. This has both its upsides and definitely its downsides. Which you will learn all about.

As promised last time out, we allowed Kenny Rogers to give us both some odd life lessons but we also watched nineteen other films including two “can’t be much more different” retrospective big screen showings, Cirio H. Santiago bringing the ladies of the night, we inadvertently both visited the PET SEMATARY universe, Josh finally learns just what the cranberry sauce is all about, JCVD returns to prison, educational films prove to be morally corrupt, and so much more!

Episode 213: 44% Horror

As we head towards Halloween we decided to put 100% effort into watching horror films with a 44% return rate. Not bad.

This time out we’re talking nineteen movies including a hip-hop flick only Cannon could be responsible for, Tobe Hooper visiting the carnival, a grown man in diapers, Rudy Ray Moore gettin’ down once more, Burt being Burt, a duo of Shudder Originals with varying results, Eric Clapton again getting on Josh’s nerves, a rampaging wooly mammoth, and so much more!

Episode 212: Resting Tommy Face

Beware the wrath of TLJ! If you try to run, he’ll get you, especially if you’re trying to take advantage of a obscure loophole law.

This time out we have twenty films to discuss including a couple of disaster flicks, JCVD as a coke-fueled knock off artist, we both finally scratched a classic off our “why haven’t we seen this yet?” lists, Josh continues his Scorsese and Chan journeys, we have evidence sororities are evil, bigfoot drops by to say hello, Chris checks out sure to be future cult film BOTTOMS, and so much more!
