New Patreon supporter Greig has reached back into the 1970's for his first pick and it from the year of the gang movie, 1979's The Wanderers!The production of The Wanderers (1979), directed by Philip Kaufman and co-written with his wife Rose Kaufman, was an adaptation of Richard Price's debut novel. Set in the Bronx of 1963, the film aimed to authentically portray the era's street gang culture. Filming took place on location in various Bronx neighborhoods, including Fordham Road, the Grand Concourse, and Pelham Parkway. Cinematographer Michael Chapman, known for his work on Taxi Driver and Raging Bull, contributed to the film's dynamic visual style. The cast featured emerging talents such as Ken Wahl, John Friedrich, Karen Allen, Toni Kalem, and Tony Ganios.Despite not achieving significant box office success upon its release, The Wanderers garnered critical acclaim for its vivid depiction of adolescence and gang life. Over time, it developed a cult following, appreciated for its blend of nostalgia, pathos, and drama. The film's soundtrack, featuring a selection of late 1950s and early 1960s rock and roll, further enhanced its period authenticity. In 1996, Warner Bros. re-released the film theatrically in the United States, reflecting its enduring appeal.If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter.www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesbackTrailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a world teetering on the edge of innocence and rebellion, The Wanderers takes you back to 1963 Bronx, where leather jackets were armor and gangs ruled the streets like teenage warlords.

"Die Hard but in Beverly Hills" is elevator pitch for The Taking of Beverly Hills. And while the film looked like a sure-fire hit on paper thanks to its star, the then white-hot Ken Wahl, and it's director, Sidney J. Furie, the didn't even get the chance to fade into obscurity - it debuted there. Rob Hill from The Bad Movie Bible joins me to try and find out why. Content warning; When discussing Wahl's past, I quote some homophobic things other people said.
Amongst the sixteen films we cover this time there's a whole lot of ridiculousness on display. However, don't think we're saying that as a negative thing!This time Leo Fong makes his second appearance in a row, Chris wishes that Ken Wahl could've become a big action star, there's a monster unleashed from a lamp, Michael Keaton brings the psycho, Josh doesn't really enjoy his SHOCKER revisit, David Mamet meets ultimate fighting, Christopher Walken is a malicious angel, we talk a duo of new horror films and so much more!Thanks for listening!

Despite their differences and against all odds, an aspiring singer-songwriter and a soldier fall hopelessly in love. Cassie (Sofia Carson), a struggling singer-songwriter, and Luke ( Nicholas Galitzine), a troubled Marine, agree to marry solely for military benefits.The movie is based on a novel by Tess Wakefield, and is something of a soap opera-esque take on a military marriage entered into for the benefitsIt's one of those movies that regardless of the fact you know the ending, it's still inspiring and tear jerking to watch. The actors and actresses portrayed the life and situations to the best of their accuracy while still keeping the storyline center focus. It's a beautiful story of twisted love. From beginning to end it's hard to really know if they will finally let there guards down. But you start to get an incling that they don't despise eachother anymore and from there the friendship and love grows. They learn slowly to overcome their differences of opinions and political views. It doesn't come without its complications but it's a movie for teens and young adults in the world right now. Not everything in the movie is relatable but it gives them real life struggles like Type 1 diabetes, childhood trauma for both of them, drug addiction, PTSD, having to learn how to renavigate life after almost getting a leg blown off; letting eachother help the other one and the loss of a close friend to both of them. And it let's you watch as seemingly normal people try to navigate those challenges. Sofia and Nicholas did an amazing job.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

The next sequel we are reviewing is "Aliens”, which is on our "Mt. Rushmore" of movie sequels and I was lucky enough to interview Actor Ricco Ross about his career. Ricco played "Private Frost" in the movie and had so many great behind the scene tidbits to tell plus we talked about his role of "The Cuban" in "Death Wish 3". I loved Ricco's origin story and how a teacher his freshman year of high school pushed him to do the school played, which led to an amazing career. Ricco had stories about Ken Wahl, Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, Stanley Kubrick, James Cameron, Whitney Houston, and more. Awesome chat! This is also a video interview you can watch at sequelsonly.com/riccoross Links mentioned in this episode: Ricco's IMDb https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0743768/ Next up is "Aliens".

We brought back Nick, who is our creature expert, to help us break this one down. We discussed the difference between "a Prank, a Yank, and a Crank", the actor who voices the cat Ghoulie, the Billy Zabka-like villain, the creepy security guard, and more. PANCAKE!

I was lucky enough to interview Ricco Ross who played Frost. Ricco and I 1st connected when we were doing the "Death Wish 3" reunion for Charles Bronson's 100th birthday, but he had something come up, but we did it. s an actor, his first year out of college he booked reoccurring roles on "Hill St. Blues" & "The Young & the Restless". Soon afterward, feeling type-cast, he decided to study Shakespeare for a year in England at the London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art (LAMDA). That year turned into 13 years of living abroad. There he got "Dirty Dozen 2" and became friends with Ken Wahl (great story about Ken), "Death Wish 3", "Aliens", and actually got "Full Metal Jacket", but that's a story you gotta hear. Great chat.

We wrap up this shitty year with two VERY entertaining action films from the 90's that both feature the always-fun Robert Davi and also have plots that remind us VERY much of our favorite Christmas movie...a little flick called "Die Hard". We start off with "The Taking of Beverly Hills" from 1991, directed by Sidney J. Furie and starring Ken Wahl and Matt Frewer, with several good people in supporting roles. The plot revolves around a group of disgruntled cops who fake a chemical spill in Beverly Hills in order to rob the place blind. Lots of things are blown up, crushed and shot during the runtime and it's a ton of fun! We follow it up with 1995's "No Contest" which stars Shannon Tweed and Andrew "Dice" Clay. This time, a beauty pageant is taken over by a group of VERY bad men who hold the contestants hostage and only the kicks and punches of a former winner can save them! It is a very fun piece of fluff that delivers on every level. Neither of these movies are "good" on any defensible level, but they both left us all with huge grins on our faces and we recommend them.
