  • We Doing Siege Movies - The Park Is Mine

    Before Tommy Lee Jones became a household name in the 90's, he was Mitch, a vietnam vet who takes over Central Park in New York City in order to bring attention to the issues the veterans are facing.Based off a novel of the same name by Stephen Peters, this was in heavy rotation on HBO back in the mid 80's, who also financed it. Yaphet Kotto plays the police chief trying to end the parks occupation without violence, but all the booby traps, snipers, and hidey-holes make that kind of difficult. Is this an unsung hit of the 80's? Does it go completely insane at the end? Should you watch it? Tune in and find out.If you like the video, rate, subscribe, and if you post a review anywhere, you can mention a movie you'd like us to cover and we will make an episode on it.#tommyleejones #yaphetkotto #80's #thriller #newyorkthriller #nyc #centralpark

  • Rat Pack Rat (2014)
    Jun 9 2026

    A Craigslist Sammy Davis Jr., a slimy, dying man-boy and an old mommy are all here for the... Rat Pack Rat Eddie Rouse gets hired by a mom to do his Sammy Davis Jr. act for her dying son. He turns out to be Steve Little and things get weird, but Rouse does do some singing to this poor, sweet, disgusting son. I love the late Eddie Rouse. I love the still alive Todd Rohal. So, for a birthday gift to myself, we watched this short film. It's filthy, grotesque, full of heart, shocks and hilarity. Basically, it seems to be, in fact, a Todd Rohal film. Watch it on youtube and watch this episode. Join the Rohal army.

Petersen) vows revenge, setting out to nab dangerous counterfeit artist Eric Masters (Willem Dafoe).

As Chance's desire for justice becomes an obsession, Vukovich questions the lawless methods he employs.This movie is soaked in 80s. From the art, costumes, the Wang Chung soundtrack, it's oozing a time and a place that doesn't exist anymore. Is this movie great? Was it ever? Does it hinge in surprise and brutality or is it a classic noir that deserved every accolade it got? Tune in! Find out! Jules picked this one for fun and you could pick one for us also. Review us on Apple podcasts and mention the movie you want us to cover and you're good to go.

  • Ben Mendehlson - Return Home
    May 22 2026

    A divorced Australian (Dennis Coard) leaves the city and comes home to his brother's (Frankie J. Holden) gas station. Gary (Ben Mendehlsohn), picks him up for the airport as he...Return Home.That's an incredibly boring synopsis for a movie that is a real gem. If you read that, you'd never watch it. And you couldn't anyways, unless you're in Australia. But? This movie is really beautiful and tender. The relationships are kind, the brotherly love is strong but unspoken. Gary is kind of a dufus, but he wants to be better. Again, this doesn't make it sound great, however, this is easily one of the best movies we've covered on this podcast. At about the halfway point, you realize the brother needs to move home and help with this gas station or it will go under and you are wildly excited for that decision to be made. We highly recommend this movie and maybe if you email Australia (just in general), you can talk them into streaming the remastered blue ray to the world. We'd all be better for having watched it.If you like the episode, rate, subscribe, and if you review it on a podcasting platform or where there could be an actual review people will read, you can pick a movie for us to cover.#benmendelsohn #podcast #returnhome #australiancinema #australianmovie #denniscoard #RayArgall #frankiejholden
