027 – Tarantino Ripoffs with Matt Christman

Renee Zellweger aims a gun in Love and a .45 (1994)

Matt Christman returns to talk about that disease unique to the 90s, the Tarantino ripoff! We discuss Killing Zoe and Love and a .45. We also touch on oddball pics like The Immortals and the inexplicably beloved Boondock Saints.

Matt first guested on the show to bring us the awful Larry Bishop pet project, Mad Dog Time. Included in this episode is a Matt utterance that’s might be one of the best descriptions of a bad film ever spoken: “It’s like it all takes place in a coffin.”

021 – On Deadly Ground with Felix Biederman

Steven Seagal serving up realness
that’s right king

Jen and Tim welcome an expert in the study of lunkheads, Felix Biederman of Chapo Trap House! We dissect the themes of environmentalism and masculinity in Steven Seagal’s cri de coeur, and also stumble across evidence that Felix may be a long-lost Seagal relative.

For more Felix, don’t miss our episode on the truly demented Turkish actioner Valley of the Wolves: Iraq!

002 – Split Second (1992)

Tim and Jen find themselves unexpectedly charmed and delighted by a combo of sci-fi, horror, thriller, and schlock: Split Second, from 1992! We discuss the wrong-headed marketing for the film and the delights of mini-guns and cigars shared by two dear male friends.

A hilarious trailer, probably for the video release:
