Episode #119 - Leprechaun 4: In Space

Leeeppprreeechaauuunnn iiiiinnnnn spaaaaccceeeee! The fourth installment of the Leprechaun series finds our dear Leprechaun in the future, where he has kidnapped the princess of a planet in order to marry into the royal family. Meanwhile, an mad scientist, Dr. Mittenhand, is on a mission to rescue the princess in order to use her regenerative abilities for his own benefit. After rescuing the princess, the troop of space Marines contracted by Mittenhand unwittingly brings the Leprechaun back to their ship, where he begins picking them off one by one. As dumb as this movie is, one thing can definitely be said... Warwick Davis is adorable. Grab your shrink ray, think about baseball, and join us as we crack wise with Leprechaun 4: In Space!

Episode #118 - Dante's Peak

It's Bond vs the volcano in Dante's Peak! Pierce Brosnan stars as volcanologist Harry Dalton, who is dispatched to the small town of Dante's Peak to investigate some possible volcanic activity. After determining that the mountain is on the verge of blowing (like this movie, HEY-O), he tries to warn the town of their impending doom, much to the chagrin of his boss, apparently fresh off his stint as the mayor of Amity. Inevitably the volcano erupts, because this would be a pretty boring movie if it didn't, and Harry must completely ignore the fact that he's a volcanologist in a town with an erupting volcano and instead go rescue a single little old lady who doesn't want to leave anyway... and killing her in the process. Now, along with Mayor Sarah Connor and her annoying kids, he must find away to escape Dante's Peak before the next eruption completely destroys the town. If this was a latter day Bros Bond movie, he would have totally rode a wave of lava. Grab your Nasa transmitter, pour yourself a cappuccino, and join us as we bury Dante's Peak in volcanic ash!

Episode #117 - Basic Instinct 2

Sharon Stone's Catherine Tramell is up to her old murderin' tricks again.... or maybe she isn't. Who knows! Either way, her psychiatrist, Dr. Glass is pretty sure she's got blood on her hands, but he doesn't let that stop him from becoming dangerously and creepily obsessed with her. Hired to give her a mental examination as part of a trial, he eventually finds himself defending her as bodies and evidence pile up, which seems to paint her as a cold blooded killer. But who is the real killer? No, really, I'm asking. I have no idea who the killer is. Please tell me. A erotic "thriller" that has more twists and turns than Nicolas Cage's Trespass and less answers than a broken telephone, Basic Instinct 2 proves one thing for sure... that nobody needed a sequel to Basic Instinct.

Episode #115 - Jupiter Ascending

If I were able to actually mine a plot out of this mess of a movie, writing a synopsis would be a much less daunting task!

Roller-Wolf (Channing Tatum) reveals that Jupiter is the most important person on Earth, and is in mortal danger because of it. When WhereIsMyShirt-Wolf fails to keep her from being kidnapped, he must stop her evil sons(?) from killing her and taking possession of Earth, where they plan to harvest every living human life and turn their essence into youth-goo.
