This week, Travis is joined by Tim "JayDimes" Wilson to talk about the actual first R rated film based on a Marvel comic. The Punisher. Released in 1989 starring Dolph Lundgren as Frank Castle, and Louis Gossett Jr. as Jake Berkowitz, and based on the Marvel comics character. So, how was this as an adaptation of the comic? Does it do the character justice? Or is it just another generic 80s action movie? And where is the iconic Skull logo?

Josh is back again this week. We had so much fun talking about the Coen brothers, we decided to go in a completely different end of the movie spectrum with 1993's Last Action Hero. Arnold Schwarzenegger was the biggest start on the planet at the time, and he stars in this movie about a boy who gets a magical movie ticket, and ends up INSIDE the movie! So, does this movie deserve the box office bomb label it has? Or is it the cult classic that some have said it is in recent years?

This week, Josh Munro, aka Joosh, is back to talk about a movie Travis hasn't seen before. It's the debut feature film from Joel and Ethan Coen, Blood Simple. The plot revolves around a man putting a contract kill out on his wife, and her lover. But when he ends up shot, things quickly get out of control. A private investigator with questionable morals, a pearl handled revolver, and a guy who just won't seem to die. So does this hold up to the high standards of other Coen brothers films? Or is it a stumble out of the box for the first time filmmakers? Let's find out...Thanks go out to Audie Norman (@TheAudieNorman) for the album art.

He's then offered an experimental implant that allows him to walk again. When the chip inside him starts to talk to him, he sets out to find the men who killed his wife. Written and Directed by Leigh Whannell (of Saw and Insidious fame) is this a worthy Cyberpunk/Noir whodunit? Or just another low budget action flick?

This week, Gary Fisher (The Senior Geek) is joining the show to talk about seeing The Exorcist for the very first time. Often cited as "The Scariest Movie ever Made", it's about a young girl named Reagan who is possesed by a demon. Or is she? The doctors don't seem to think so, but her mother knows something is happening, and she looks to Father Karras for help. Starring Ellen Burstyn, Linda Blair, Jason Miller, and Max Von Sydow. Is this movie as scary as it's reputation makes it out to be? Or is it just a long and somewhat boring movie from the 1970s?

This week, we are staying firmly in the 1980s with one of the seminal kids adventure movies, The Goonies. Dennis Robinson of the Botched Podcast is back because he's never seen this movie. How is that possible? Didn't everyone between the age of 35 and 45 see this movie growing up? Well, not everyone apparently. So, how does it hold up? Is it still enjoyable, or should it stay in the 80s? We also talk about music and scores in movies, and how we look at entertainment over the different times in our lives.Don't forget to check out Lycanbook.com for Dennis' kickstarter on his new graphic novel!Thanks go out to Audie Norman (@TheAudieNorman) for the album art.

This week, Jay Funktastic is back to talk about the cult classic Road House. Released in 1989 starring Patrick Swayze, Kelly Lynch, and Sam Elliott, it's about the best Cooler in the business. An Western masquerading as an 80s action film, but with a lead who's as much philospher as he is fighter. So, is it a movie that lives up to the status of cult classic? Or did it deserve the 5 Razzie award nominations? We'll also get some Drive-In totals for this one!

This week, Diddi returns to talk about the 2018 DC comics adaptation of Aquaman. Starring Jason Momoa, Amber Heard, and Patrcik Wilson. It tells the story of Arthur Curry as he becomes the hero known as Aquaman. DC films don't have the best track record. Is this the movie that breaks the mold of the DCEU, or is it an overly long slog with no real point? And is it any fun?
