Bad Movies Rule!

#126 The A-Team (2010) Sep 29, 2023

Show notes

Here's the burning question - does "The A-Team" hit the bullseye as a nostalgic tribute to the 80s show, or is it just another loud mindless action movie? The critics hated it but even though the audience liked it, not enough people went to see it to justify a sequel.

We go scene by scene through the movie. Murdock makes a plan and every one of them is about as foolproof as a screen door on a submarine. Murdock's insanity is the only thing that makes sense in this crazy movie, and Face is so smooth he could charm a grizzly bear into bed.

#125 Blind Fury (1989) Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

Get ready for the world of "Blind Fury" (1989). Directed by Phillip Noyce, this action-packed adventure delivers more sword-swinging action and eyebrow-shaving moments than you can imagine.

We follow Rutger Hauer's portrayal of Nick Parker, a blind Vietnam War vet with some seriously impressive sword skills. While he can fight better than sighted people, he ends up stuck in a situation that becomes like a terrible NPC escort mission. With the most henchman I've seen a bad guy have on the payroll in a while, and a plot that takes more detours than your last road trip, "Blind Fury" is a cinematic experience that defies easy categorization.

But here's the big question: Does "Blind Fury" manage to carve out its own unique place in '80s action cinema, or is it just a quirky footnote in the grand history of movies? Join us as we navigate this unpredictable journey, delivering our verdict on whether "Blind Fury" is a surprisingly entertaining hit or a head-scratching "seriously, what were they thinking?" miss.

#124 DOA: Dead or Alive (2006) Sep 15, 2023

Show notes

It's time to venture into the wild world of "DOA: Dead or Alive" (2006). Directed by Corey Yuen, this action-packed ride promises more kicks, flips, and roller girls than you would typically find on a Saturday night at a karate dojo.

Join us as we follow a group of martial artists, including Jaime Pressly, Holly Valance, and Devon Aoki, on a mission that's part fighting tournament, part volleyball game, and all parts bewildering. With characters so thinly sketched they make a paper doll look three-dimensional and a plot that's about as coherent as a tumble down a flight of stairs.

But here's the ultimate question: Does "DOA: Dead or Alive" rise as a guilty pleasure in the pantheon of martial arts cinema, or is it simply a punchline in the grand joke of cinematic history?

#123 Elektra (2005) Sep 08, 2023

Show notes

Get ready as we dissect "Elektra" (2005) on the Bad Movies Rule Podcast. Directed by Rob Bowman, this flick promises more ninja action, but my step dad made promises too and look where that got us.

Join us as we follow Jennifer Garner's portrayal of Elektra Natchios (not Nachos, sadly), an assassin with supernatural skills that she rarely uses, on a mission that's part NPC escort quest, part fighting F List characters, and all parts perplexing. With villains so dumb, they make you question why you're watching, and a plot trying so hard, it rivals a tween at a sleepover.

But here's the million-dollar question: Does "Elektra" shine as an unintentional comedy gem in the superhero genre, or is it just a punchline in the grand joke of cinematic history? Join us as we slice and dice our way through the madness, delivering our verdict on whether "Elektra" is a hilariously electrifying hit or a super-powered "seriously, what were they thinking?" miss.

#122 The Fog (2005) Sep 01, 2023

Show notes

Get ready to dive into a world where the fog's thicker than your uncle's conspiracy theories – we're about to unravel The Fog (2005). Directed by Rupert Wainwright, this film is so foggy, you'll need a GPS just to find the plot.

Join us as we step into a town where the Fog literally out-acts Tom Welling, Maggie Grace, and Selma Blair. We're talking more mist, less clarity, and a suspense level that's more "wait, what?" than edge-of-your-seat.

But here's the real question: Will The Fog leave us spooked, or just scratching our heads like we're in a daze? Grab your flashlight (and maybe a foghorn, just in case), and join us as we venture into the haze, the haunts, and the hilariously hazy moments of this fog-filled thriller.

#121 Encino Man (1992) Aug 25, 2023

Show notes

Don't forget to check out BrianDrawsMovies and use the promo code BADMOVIESRULE for 15% off.

Get ready to dial up your nostalgia, because we're digging deep into the '90s with Encino Man (1992). This flick is a wild ride through teenage awkwardness, caveman confusion, and more cheesy humor than you can shake a club at, along with a surprisingly unlikeable performance from Sean Astin.

Join us on the Bad Movies Rule Podcast as we unearth the hilarity of Brendan Fraser and Pauly Shore taking us on a journey that's part buddy comedy, part prehistoric pandemonium. From the moment we accidentally dig up a frozen caveman in a backyard, you know you're in for a ride that's, well, as unexpected as a caveman in a Los Angeles suburb, even though he seems perfectly fine with it.

But the real question is, does Encino Man still have the chops to rock our socks off, or has it turned into a fossil of cringe-worthy '90s clichés? Grab your slap bracelets and neon windbreakers, because we're diving headfirst into the world of Encino Man to see if this flick is a buried treasure or just another relic of a bygone era.

#120 Red Sonja (1985) Aug 18, 2023

Show notes

Hosts: James Hauser, Curt Mummer, and Ryan Mueller.

The sword-and-sorcery spectacle, Red Sonja (1985) showcases Brigitte Nielsen as the titular character, a warrior with a thirst for vengeance and a wardrobe that's more revealing than practical. While Red Sonja trains tirelessly to avenge her family's murder and save her kingdom (and maybe find actual armor), Lord Kalidor sweeps in with his trademark Austrian accent, ready to take on the villainous Queen Gedren.

Red Sonja - a film where the titular character is just a supporting act to the Austrian Oak that is Arnold Schwarzenegger. So grab your swords (and maybe some hairpins to tame that mane), and join us on this comically unbalanced adventure where even when it's supposed to be her moment, Arnie's just too much to overcome.
