There Will Be Duds

201 - From the Vault Nintendo 64 Retrospective

We're opening the vault again, which we've started using as a means to feature stuff other than what we normally do on the show. This time, we're doing video games! Again. Nintendo video games! Again. It's the Nintendo 64, in all it's janky and dated glory. This is part 1 of an eventual trilogy of episodes on the console, to be completed at some point in the future! Next week's movie: Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father (2008) You can join the conversation Wednesdays at 7pm EST! Available in podcast form on all your favorite podcatchers!

200 - The Evil Dead Trilogy

Happy 200th to us! To celebrate, we invited some friends to a cabin in the woods to talk about some movies, most of which take place at a cabin in the woods. We didn't necessarily plan on doing two Sam Raimi trilogies in a row for our milestone eps, but what can I say? The guy makes good movies. We also screen our own Evil Dead-inspired movie, The Ungrateful Dead and do a sort of live VJ style commentary. If you're listening to this as podcast, this one might be better to watch the video with, but here's the link to The Ungrateful Dead on Youtube if you want to check it out on your own: https://youtu.be/tP1h3qdTDQ4?si=lXb1iSZEbntL6tWL Next movie: Took a break after this whopper of an ep and decided to pull from the Duds vault for the next episode, where we're talking about the Nintendo 64!

199 - SLC Punk!

Odds and Ends: We talk about Rob Reiner and other filmmakers we lost recently; T.J. saw a new Wes Anderson movie, and he liked it?! Okay, calm down, it's not that exciting Feature Film: Proving Tarantino wrong, we talk about the great Matthew Lillard and SLC Punk!, a cult indie about some culty indies, or something. That kind of works. T.J. also watched the sequel and is here to tell you to not make the same mistake he did. Next week's movie: The Evil Dead trilogy, plus our own movie The Ungrateful Dead, for our 200th episode extravaganza! You can join the conversation Wednesdays at 7pm EST!

198 - Black Christmas and Black Christmas

Odds and Ends: We celebrate our very small listening audience while going over our Spotify wrapped for the show. If you're reading this, dear audience, we luv u. Feature Film: To close out another year, we take all the good will from the original Black Christmas and throw it in the garbage as we cover the two remakes. Both bad for very different reasons, but which is worse? Is one dudlier than the other? Well, just check out the episode, stop asking me. Next week's movie: SLC Punk!

197 - Black Christmas; Bugonia

Odds and Ends: Christmas wishes and new year's resolutions; Nick talks about the newest Lanthimos picture, Bugonia; we talk about some unsung Brian Yuzna classics, shoutout the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, and try to understand Ben Shapiro's high-IQ review of One Battle After Another Feature Film: From the director of A Christmas Story and Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2, Black Christmas! One of the earliest examples of what would become the slasher genre, we fawn over the brilliance of this movie, and how it works as a cozy winter Christmas movie at the same time as being a terrifying horror movie.
