Action Jackson Jul 19, 2018

Show notes

For this 200th episode of Junkfood Cinema, Brian and Cargill bring you all the fireworks packed into Action Jackson! Carl Weathers stars in what is essentially the last great blaxploitation movie produced by JFC mainstay Joel Silver. This might explain why Cargill describes Action Jackson as what would happen, "if Predator fucked Die Hard."
The guys discuss the cast, Craig T. Nelson's dye job, the amazing/incomprehensible one-liners, and the odd connections to both Robocop and Shakespeare.

The Blob (Part One) w/Joe Lynch of The Movie Crypt Jun 13, 2018

Show notes

Beware, Junkions! This week's episode is the first of an epic two-parter as the guys are joined by film director Joe Lynch (of The Movie Crypt) to take on the massive, creeping, crawling, world-eating threat that is The Blob!
Terror has no shape, and neither do the men of Junkfood Cinema.
The guys have a great time discussing the film's practical effects, the deaths that haunt their dreams, and Joe tells some amazing personal stories and behind the scenes nuggets from Blob director Chuck Russell himself, who incidentally was kind enough to record a little welcome for you all. Seriously, this episode is big. Huge! Even bigger than Kevin Dillon's mullet!

Show notes

Would you Junkfood on a plane? Would you Junkfood on a train? That’s right, this week Brian and Cargill make a Midnight Run. And for once, that doesn’t mean they’re getting pie at a diner.
Want the wrap sheet? The perfect buddy movie that’s also the perfect road trip movie from the director of Beverly Hills cop, the writer of Bad Boys 2 and featuring JFC legend Yaphet Kotto. Do we make ourselves understood?
The guys discuss the structure of Midnight Run, the controlled chaos, and how Cher was almost cast? Loosen your cuffs, we’re gonna be here a while.

Smile, darn ya, smile! And share, darn ya, share!
