Newman from Movies 4 Dayz stopped by the virtual studio to howl at the moon and wax philosophically about the nature of the beast within us all. Seems perfectly reasonable when taking on a ridiculous premise like an alcoholic werewolf police officer. It's Lowell Dean's sequel to his pet project.

My first-ever guest, Donnie, is back to answer the timeless question: Can you be so horny that you come back from the dead? That seems to be the case for Johnny Dingle and the townsfolk aren't too happy about it as we take on Bob Balaban and Dean Lorey's:

A demonic djinn attempts to grant its owner three wishes, which will allow him to summon his brethren to Earth.
What would you wish for? I wished for a new guest to hang out and talk about a bad movie they love and I got it! I was joined by Sully, from the Jacked Up Review Show, to talk about what we'd wish for along with the lore and splendor of a 90s horror film that wears its love for the genre on its celluloid sleeve. We're talking:
Wishmaster (1997)
Director: Robert Kurtzman
Writers: Peter Atkins
Stars: Tammy Lauren, Andrew Divoff, Angus Scrimm
I hope you had a good time listening and, if you want more, check out Sully and a carousel of co-hosts at Jacked Up Review Show where I will soon be hanging out talking more Wishmaster. And you can Jacked Up Review Show Podcast all over social media.

With the Los Angeles area fires raging, I wasn't sure if there would be an episode this week...or any time soon.

This episode is dedicated to my home and the people here fighting for it.
For this episode, I was joined by Stephen from The Stacks Podcast to talk about an Italian giallo so desperate to masquerade as American that it won't stop mentioning the Super Bowl. So, grab some un-sauced spaghetti and join us for:

Dystopian December has arrived, but I couldn't quite let go of Lundgren Calling. I was so happy to hear that Dolph is now cancer-free, so Vee from the Movies You Missed podcast joined me once again to get wet-wired with a dystopian sci-fi flick that also happens to be a techno-thriller where Lundgren got second billing.

Endless Summer was so much fun that when the opportunity to bring you a Bonus Episode popped up like the new girl at school, I just couldn't resist!

The Epic Adventures series was a ton of fun but it's in the rearview. #EndlessSummer starts now! I had the distinct pleasure of sitting down with a friend who was one of the founding fathers of the Sheist International Film Club, he's one of the brightest minds in Bills Mafia, and it was a long time coming to get Uber Hansen on the show. The wait was certainly worth it as we had a ton of fun discussing the most modern movie we've ever done on the show and all the baggage that came with it. We're talking about Don't Worry Darling.

Darragh had such a good time helping me induct Drop Dead Fred into the Bad Movies We Love Hall of Fame he returned to help me close out the Epic Adventures series with a movie that's even weirder! Coincidentally, this film also deals with the childhood trauma of its main character and it did a number on us as kids too. We're talking about Walter Murch's 1985 Emerald City sequel: Return to Oz.

My film club friend and the author of The Vein Introduction to Macabre Myths and Monsters, Aide Vein, joined me to talk about a maligned movie that butters its bread with monsters, myths, and legends.

It's finally happened. After years of hard work, I finally found someone to talk Waterworld with! My friend Paul stopped by for a Ulysses Cut episode and it's just as robust and crazy as you might imagine. It's about as long too. So, apologies in advance for that but I assure you it's worth it as we raise the banner and induct Waterworld into the Bad Movies We Love Hall of Fame, Class of '24.

My buddy Newman from Movies 4 Dayz joined me to kick the tires and light the fires on July's Epic Adventure series, and we're starting with the only transition that makes sense coming out of June-Claude Van Damme, and that's Gary Goddard's Dolph Lundgren vehicle: Masters of the Universe

Since we've got a Stanley Cup Finals Game 7 in real life, it's only fitting that our resident hockey expert, Stephanie, returns to celebrate June-Claude Van Damme with a first-time watch, covering the only movie set during the Stanley Cup Finals Game 7.

In the first episode of June-Claude Van Damme, Ben from the Cinema Shitshow told me to "look for something hard" so I went out and found it with his co-host Nix!

My friend Ben from the Cinema Shitshow joined me for a solo outing (of sorts) as we loaded up the super-truck with ice, hit up a roadside diner for a bunch of food we couldn't pay for, let our buttcheeks blow in the wind, and were all ears for Roland Emmerich's first American feature: Universal Soldier.

This show has afforded me the opportunity to make a lot of new friends. So, I invited one of those friends on, for the first time, to talk about the Stephen Norrington low-budget sci-fi horror sleeper: Death Machine.

I had the distinct pleasure of sitting down with the prolific and wonderfully talented author of Children of the Dark, Exorcist Falls, The Dismembered, and so many more...Jonathan Janz is in the house! And we got to talking about demons, the benefit of complex character choices, subverting expectations, Jaws (because it rocks!), and the absolute mastery of Laura Linney in Scott Derrickson's breakout big-screen film: The Exorcism of Emily Rose.

Back in January, I got to sit down with my new friend Vee from the Movies You Missed podcast to talk about a film I had never seen before but was a big influence on them. Loaded with flair, attitude, style, and a surprising amount of motorcycle jackets given the lack of motorcycles in the film, Hackers excels in the tech thriller genre where a lot of its peers failed.

I've had to take some time off due to circumstances beyond my control, so thanks to everyone who hung around and came back for more. Back in the middle of January, I was joined by my new friend Stephanie from the Sheist International Film Club who wanted to share her love of a sci-fi horror film that took a lot of flack back when it came out.

Nix from the Cinema Shitshow rejoins me to complete our equally unofficial Empire Pictures trilogy of episodes that has spanned multiple podcasts as we take on a movie for kids that can be enjoyed by adults (or maybe that's the other way around): Stuart Gordon's Robot Jox from 1989.

Hello, Bad Movie Lovers! I thought I was done for the year, but as I've been chipping away at some other year-end movie projects I realized most movies I get to cover on this show are at least 20 years old. And that got me thinking about all the lovable bad movies I saw this year and not wanting to wait 20 years to bring attention to them. So I found a little gas left in the tank and put together the first-ever Bad Movies We Love year-end list. Hopefully, there's something you'll be willing to take a chance on.
Whether this is your first time listening or if you have been a long-time listener, thank you so much for being part of Bad Movies We Love. I hope you enjoy the show.

It's the first-ever Bad Movies We Love Christmas Special!! Scott Cole popped back in to talk about a movie whose themes are much deeper than the slapstick surface but didn't stand a chance at the box office in 1994 despite an amazing cast and an Oscar-nominated filmmaker at the helm. We're talking Mixed Nuts. Plus, we get into our Christmas movie staples and some not-so-cookie-cutter Xmas films to embrace. Happy Holidays!

Our favorite Nostagliaphile is back! Vanya is back to celebrate Christmas in true 80s excess. There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home. Is it the best in the franchise? Is it the worst?
