Tim and Frank map the split between things you use and things you just display. Physical media and toys that invite play vs digital files and NFTs that create fake scarcity. Collecting has shifted. Minimalist “millennial beige” homes and how that vibe bleeds into hobby culture. Funko's oversupply and debt stories. Expensive replicas that stop being toys once the price climbs. LEGO scale display pieces vs sets made to be handled. The difference between collecting for personal joy and buying for resale.

Men at Work (1990) was chosen by co-host Chris, and it's a perfect fit for his love of oddball comedies from the VHS era. Written and directed by Emilio Estevez, the film was a true family affair — with Estevez not only helming the project but also starring alongside his real-life brother, Charlie Sheen. Coming off the back of their late-'80s fame from Young Guns and Wall Street, the pair teamed up for a buddy comedy that blended slapstick humor, blue-collar chaos, and a dash of political satire. Produced by Epic Productions and distributed by Triumph Releasing (a Columbia Pictures subsidiary), Men at Work was Estevez's second outing as a writer-director, following his 1986 drama Wisdom. The project gave him the freedom to craft a film that played directly to the chemistry he shared with his brother — the same mix of bravado and goofiness that made it a cult favorite among fans of early-'90s video store comedies.Filmed primarily around Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach, California, Men at Work embraced the laid-back coastal vibe of Southern California. The shoot was relatively quick and low-budget by Hollywood standards, with much of the film's tone shaped through improvisation between Estevez and Sheen. The movie's soundtrack captured the spirit of the late '80s and early '90s, featuring a mix of surf rock, funk, and classic rock tracks. While it didn't make waves critically, Men at Work found a second life on VHS and cable television, where its offbeat humor and brotherly banter turned it into a nostalgic favorite. Today, it stands as a snapshot of a more carefree era in comedy filmmaking — a time when movies about two guys, a truck, and a ridiculous situation could carry an entire Friday night rental.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter here.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:NordVPNNordPassTrailer Guy Plot SummaryThey're brothers. They're garbage men. And they've just picked up more than they bargained for.Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez star in the ultimate blue-collar buddy comedy — where trash day turns into doomsday. Between the laughs, the chases, and the chaos, these two underdogs are about to clean up the streets… one bad guy at a time.Men at Work — crime, comedy, and complete rubbish.Fun FactsMen at Work was originally written as a dark political thriller, but Emilio Estevez reworked it into a comedy after deciding it would work better as a light-hearted buddy film.Estevez reportedly wrote the first draft of the script in the mid-1980s, years before the film was made, while he was still working on The Breakfast Club (1985).The movie's tagline — "Garbage men by day. Detectives by night." — was coined late in production as a tongue-in-cheek nod to 1980s action clichés.Estevez cast real-life surfer and character actor Keith David as Louis Fedders, the paranoid war veteran, after seeing his intense performance in John Carpenter's They Live (1988).The garbage truck used in the movie became something of a collector's item among fans and was later used in several low-budget TV shows filmed in California.Charlie Sheen's character's surfboard was custom-made by a local Hermosa Beach surf shop, and Estevez let Sheen keep it after filming.The film's theme song, “I'm Gonna Use What I Got,” was performed by The Rude Boys, adding to the film's distinctive late-'80s funk-rock vibe.Estevez and Sheen performed many of their own stunts, including the beach chase sequences, to save on the production budget.thevhsstrikesback@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback
Step into late November with This Week in Horror History, the horror podcast that digs into the spooky anniversaries hiding between Thanksgiving and Christmas. In this episode, we dive into a full week of genre milestones for November 18–25, from cult slashers and gothic ghost stories to Stephen King adaptations, survival horror gaming, and a haunting cannibal romance.We kick things off at summer camp with Sleepaway Camp (1983), the infamous 1980s slasher movie whose shocking final twist made it a cult legend on VHS and a must-watch for every serious horror fan. Then we ride into the fog with Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow (1999), a stylish gothic horror film packed with headless-horseman mayhem, Hammer Horror vibes, and one of Johnny Depp's most beloved spooky roles.From there, we lock the supermarket doors and let The Mist (2007) roll in. This Stephen King horror movie traps terrified townspeople in a grocery store surrounded by Lovecraftian monsters and religious hysteria, building to one of the bleakest endings in modern horror cinema. We also pick up a controller for Condemned: Criminal Origins (2005), a grim Xbox 360 survival horror game that turned a next-gen console launch into a nightmare of crime scenes, jump scares, and first-person brutality.Our Deep-Cut Spotlight sinks its teeth into Salem's Lot (1979), Tobe Hooper's terrifying Stephen King TV miniseriesthat made an entire generation afraid to look out their bedroom windows. We talk small-town dread, the iconic window-scratch scene, and how this vampire story helped shape everything from Fright Night to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Midnight Mass.Along the way, we roll through horror birthdays (including icons connected to The Silence of the Lambs, The Thing, and indie horror favorites), revisit the legacy of Universal's Frankenstein in a Then & Now segment, and close with a Weekly Recommendation: Luca Guadagnino's Bones and All (2022), a melancholic cannibal road movie that plays like a twisted, emotional Thanksgiving watch.If you love horror history, Stephen King adaptations, Tim Burton gothic horror, 80s slasher movies, Thanksgiving horror, and deep dives into cult classics, this episode is your cozy, creepy guide to late-November genre viewing.Subscribe to This Week in Horror History on the Weekly Spooky network so you never miss a horror anniversary, hidden gem, or nightmare from the vault.Sleepaway Camp (1983)Streaming: Currently streaming on Peacock and available via Prime Video (depending on region/packaging).Physical: Recent Blu-ray restorations from boutique horror labels are in print and easy to hunt down for collectors.Sleepy Hollow (1999)Digital: Available to rent or buy digitally on the usual suspects, including Prime Video and Apple TV.Physical: Long-standing Paramount Blu-ray and DVD releases are widely available.The Mist (2007)Streaming: Streaming on Peacock and Paramount+, often as part of their Stephen King / horror lineups.Physical: Blu-ray editions are easy to find, including releases that feature Frank Darabont's preferred black-and-white cut.Condemned: Criminal Origins (2005 – game)Digital: Recently delisted from major digital storefronts, so it's not a simple click-to-buy anymore.Physical / Legacy: Best found as a physical Xbox 360 disc or as remaining PC keys from reputable sellers that still activate on Steam; expect some tinkering on modern hardware.Salem's Lot (1979 miniseries)Streaming: Shows up on free-with-ads streamers like Tubi and on horror-centric services such as AMC+ and Shudder from time to time, though availability shifts.Physical / Digital: There are solid DVD and Blu-ray editions in circulation, and it's typically available to rent or buy digitally on major VOD platforms when it falls out of flat-rate streaming.Bones and All (2022)Digital: Available digitally on Prime Video.Streaming: Also popping up on cinephile-focused streamers such as The Criterion Channel and MUBI, making it easy to slot into a late-night double feature.This episode of This Week in Horror History is brought to you by Savorista Coffee.

Send us a textA single question—what's your go-to condiment?—turns into a full-on catch-up that's equal parts cozy, chaotic, and weirdly revealing. We compare ranch loyalty with mustard purists, confess Miracle Whip-on-hot-dog crimes, and admit to breakfast choices that should probably be illegal. Food opens the door to everything else: newborn sleep shifts, basketball season chaos, and the small household rules that spark big laughs, like when Christmas movies are “allowed” to start.From there, we dig into the media that's shaping our season. We debate Hallmark predictability, share comfort rewatches, and talk about how streaming turned choosing into a marathon of scrolling. Nostalgia makes a comeback—VHS tapes, Redbox walls, judging movies and games by cover art—and we admit it still works more often than not. The audiobook tangent hits a nerve: AI narration might be efficient, but it can't replace a human performance that breathes life into the story.If you're hunting for watchlist ideas, we've got plenty. We shout out Game Night for sharp comedy, then pivot into war films that stick with you—Unbroken, 12 Strong, Land of Bad, and the moments in Saving Private Ryan you can't unsee. We admire practical filmmaking too: Top Gun: Maverick's real cockpit footage, Tom Cruise's stunt obsession, and the way authentic risk charges the screen. It's a tour through comfort food, comfort films, and the rituals that make busy seasons feel grounded.Hit play for laughs, confessions, and a stack of movie recs.

A spark of madness is often the first step toward creation. On today's episode, we welcome Bojan Dulabic, a passionate Vancouver-based filmmaker who pulled off a small miracle—he made a full-length zombie movie for just $5,000. But this isn't just a story of budgeting brilliance; it's a tale of relentless passion, artistic vision, and the kind of self-taught wisdom you can't get in film school.Born in Bosnia, raised in Germany and Croatia, and finally settled in Canada, Bojan Dulabic's journey into filmmaking is stitched together by war, displacement, and a child's fascination with VHS tapes in his mother's shop. His early life sounds like something out of a global coming-of-age novel. And perhaps that nomadic upbringing seeded in him a gift for observation—a key trait in any great storyteller. When he finally turned his teenage creativity into a film project in high school, something clicked. Not just the shutter on a camera, but the internal compass of a man who knew he had to follow the path of cinema, even if it meant doing it on his own terms.This wasn't a journey paved in gold. His first feature, shot for $4,000, was a comedy that taught him the ropes. His follow-up? A feature-length zombie film titled Project Eugenics.What could have been a cliché genre dive instead becomes a thoughtful narrative on misinformation, the chaos of modern life, and yes—zombies as metaphors. “To me, a zombie flick... it's not about the zombies. It's always about something else,” Bojan reflects. In his hands, the walking dead become symbols of mass confusion, manipulation, and the blurred lines of truth in our hyper-connected world.There is a playful seriousness to Bojan's philosophy. He reveres Romero and admires Rodriguez, but he walks his own road. Like Alan Watts would muse about the dancer and the dance, Bojan seems less concerned with final outcomes and more with being in the creative flow—tripping over obstacles and finding meaning in the madness. He shares stories of juggling a wedding, a tight shooting schedule, and DIY visual effects like a magician with duct tape. His secret? A mindset that embraces “safe confusion”—a term borrowed from Tarantino—that invites the audience into mystery without losing them.What's more, Bojan brings a rare humility to the table. He speaks about his cast and crew with deep respect, understanding that low-budget filmmaking doesn't give you the license to burn out others for your dream. His actors often worked just a few days, each scene scheduled with precision.His respect for time, energy, and goodwill may be the real reason his film came together. For him, filmmaking is not just a creative act but a spiritual contract—with himself, with his collaborators, and with the audience.This podcast isn't just a technical breakdown of low-budget indie cinema. It's a spiritual blueprint for artists who feel the fire but lack the funds. Bojan's approach is radical because it's so simple: take stock of what you have, and build from there. Whether it's stock footage, free VFX plugins, or your friend's living room—use it. More importantly, finish it. Don't wait for permission. Make your movie now.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.
"Like no one has ever been, like, aroused by close up magic, right? You're just like, ah, wow. That was my card. My God, where did that ball go? Who knows? Can I just pay for my, like, mozzarella sticks" - Nic This week, Myopia Movies continue Creepy Kid Movie Month with The Ring — the iconic, blue-green, early-2000s mood piece that taught us two essential truths: never trust a VHS tape without a label, and if a horse looks at you funny on a ferry… just walk away. We dive into Gore Verbinski's eerie remake, the very specific shade of Pacific Northwest Depression Filter™, Naomi Watts' crusade against cursed media, and the seven-day slow decline of a family held together mostly by caffeine and denial. Along the way, the panel examines horse suicides, VHS nostalgia, Pacific Northwest lighthouses, creepy kids named Aiden, and the logistics of a ghost girl committing long-distance murder through a Zenith television.

Edward Scissorhands analysis [29:30] Amanda Graham shares how when Edward Scissorhands came out she was attending Liberty University, which is an exceptionally conservative, religious American university. It was miserable and she was in a group called ‘The Liberty Freaks'. Outside the university was a $1 theatre and you weren't supposed to go. You would get in trouble for going to see a movie.

Danskere er som regel pinligt gode til at dyrke deres nationale selvværd gennem de landsmænd, som formår at skabe sig en karriere i det brændvarme, internationale stjernelys. Af alle danske skuespillere, der har gjort sig godt i filmverdenens højeste luftlag, tænker de fleste nok hurtigt på Mads Mikkelsen, Connie Nielsen eller Viggo "Gu' fa'en er han DANSKER!" Mortensen. Ikke os. Vi tænker nemlig enten på Svend-Ole Thorsen eller - som i nat - på en stanghøj kvinde fra Rødovre ved navn Gitte aka. Brigitte Nielsen aka. Brigitte Stallone aka. Brigitte Nielsen igen! Gazellen fra Vestegnen, der lagde Hollywood for sine fødder, er uden sammenligning en af de største Moviebox-stjerner vores lille, danske land nogensinde har affødt. Det kræver popularitet, storhed og Hollywood glamour, som hun leverede i 'Rocky 4' og 'Beverly Hills Cop 2', men det kræver også støvet bundskrab fra tilbudsgitteret nede på Esso-tanken, som vi skal dyrke i aften. Første Brigitte-film i aften kommer fra Niels, og han tager os med ud i rummet til 'Galaxis' (1995). Hvad er Galaxis? Det spørger alle om, ikke mindst Niels, og han har SET filmen. Ask bringer aftenens nok bedste bud på en kvalitetsfilm, når han tager os med til det barske Conan-univers, hvor Brigitte svinger sværd og stænger som kvindelig barbar i 'Red Sonja' (1985). Og så runder Sonny af med 'Mission of Justice' (1992), hvor Brigitte måske nok spiller en lille rolle, men som stadig fortjener at få sin dag i lyset... og så at blive pakket væk for evigt. Denne episode er optaget live foran et veloplagt publikum i Grand Teatret i august 2025, hvor vi fejrede vores seks års fødselsdag. En episk aften fyldt med fest og farver, som denne episode er et godt eksempel på. Også en aften, hvor vi igen fik lov til at møde alle jer lyttere, og det er altså svært ikke at blive benovet over jeres fortsatte støtte, til vores maniske besættelse af VHS. Især stor tak til vores Patreon-støtter, der som altid får en længere episode end alle andre - 10 minutter, for at være præcis. Og HUSK det nu: Spol båndet tilbage, når du er færdig! Med venlig hilsen, Casper, Niels, Ask & Sonny

It's Homecoming week in Pondhill, 1994. Fourteen-year-old P is barely holding it together, shaving a single whisker in the bathroom mirror, writing a note he almost can't take back, and dialing his best friend Kev before a Zippo flame turns fear into momentum.At school, P's movie-trivia fluency sabotages Kev in a "battle of the sexes" quiz, earning heat from Kev and former best friend Bex. After class, the band - P, Kev, and Dizzy - argues Pantera vs. Korn, then mainlines '90s VHS nostalgia with Ace Ventura and The Crow.Then the impossible slides by in stainless steel: a DeLorean. Its driver, "Miss World," knows her metal, quotes regrets, and won't take three teens on a joyride yet. She'll be back tomorrow at 11 A.M.Under Friday-night lights, P pulls down a highlight-reel TD in a scrappy eighth-grade pickup game while Dizzy's hustling block saves the play. Back in the stands, P's parents pitch football and fitting in. P keeps tugging his shirt straight and his purple beanie low, but the question won't leave him alone: who is he allowed to be, especially if the words for it don't exist here?SMALL BLOCK is a feature screenplay by Ashley Lauren, performed live and mixed like a feature film for your ears.

We're back! This week we're talking about Demon WInd from 1990. This film has one of the most infamous VHS boxes of the time. Everyone knows the box, but how does the actual movie hold up?

In our Species 1995 Movie Review, we drop you straight back into the chaotic brilliance of mid-90s cinema, where practical effects, erotic sci-fi horror and unapologetic B-grade madness collided to create something truly unforgettable. In this episode of Born to Watch, Whitey, Gow, and Damo go deep into the 1995 creature flick that defined many a teenage boy's movie-going experience. They unpack the film from top to bottom, celebrating the nostalgia, questioning the logic and laughing at the sheer absurdity that made Species a cult classic.Whitey kicks things off by reminding us that the nineties were the final analog decade. Plans were made by phone, movie rumours spread by word of mouth, photos were printed, and mystery still existed. Out of that world came an alien seductress named Sil, played by Natasha Henstridge in her unforgettable debut. The boys discuss how this “erotic sci-fi horror” served as the perfect storm of schlock, suspense, and snorbery, with a surprising amount of A-grade pedigree hiding behind the B-grade sheen.The crew swap first-watch stories, revealing who saw it at the movies, who wore out the VHS and who had only seen the, let's say, memorable scenes on repeat. They break down the cast, including a peak Michael Madsen showing maximum smoulder, Ben Kingsley collecting a paycheck, Forest Whitaker feeling everything as an empath, and Alfred Molina delivering one of the most gloriously stupid character decisions ever put on screen.From there, the episode dives into Species' glaring logical gaps. The boys question how a creature only days old can understand cars, language, currency, sex, and self-sacrifice. They rip into the nightclub bathroom scene, which was somehow empty, the world's cleanest train conductor uniform, the magically perfect self haircut, and that spectacularly unconvincing fake-death scene, which makes no sense. Add an oil reservoir under Los Angeles, a fireball that should still be burning today and a final sewer showdown straight out of Aliens, and you have a recipe for pure nineties chaos.The team also digs into production trivia. Henstridge's big break as a 19-year-old model, Madsen's reluctance toward violent roles, HR Giger's sexualised creature design and the film's surprising success at the box office. The boys even cover Species' most prestigious accolade, the 1996 MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss, complete with an on-stage pash and a very unimpressed boyfriend watching on.As always, the gang wrap things up with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, Snorbs Report, Ordinary People and Question Time, where the dumb decisions of this film truly shine. Was Spa Man the dumbest man alive? Would anyone ever leave a hot tub to answer the phone? Do diabetics get a raw deal in this movie? Why does Sil's intelligence fluctuate depending on what the script requires? It is all here, and it is all hilarious.This Species 1995 Movie Review is full of nostalgia, stupidity and sci-fi sleaze, but above all, it is pure Born to Watch. Strap in for '90s madness, a whole lot of snobs chat, and plenty of laughs as the boys relive one of the most chaotic creature features ever made.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONIs Species the most outrageous sci-fi horror of the '90s, or just the most unforgettable?Did Natasha Henstridge redefine the term B-grade icon?Would you have survived Sill's mating spree, or ended up like poor Rapey Robbie?Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or at BornToWatch.com.auDo us a favour: hit follow and drop a five-star review.

The answer to all these questions is obviously “yes!” In this episode, we're digging into the genre of VHS pop, which is often thought of as the upbeat and optimistic cousin of late night lo-fi.

What if the movies you remember from childhood… never actually existed?The ones you swear you saw — on a worn-out VHS tape from Blockbuster — with a wild plot, bad dubbing, and a cover burned into your brain…But no one else remembers them.This week, we rewind to a stranger era — a time when movie aisles stretched like cathedrals of neon light, and every clamshell box whispered something incredible.The age of the VHS fever dream.Together, we'll explore the blurred line between the real and the imagined—those low-budget, high-sincerity flicks that defied logic, physics, and probably every copyright law known to man.Some of the movies we describe this week are 100% real.Some are completely fake.And the challenge?You have to figure out which is which.
The Beatles produced five films during their time together: A Hard Day's Night, Help!, Magical Mystery Tour, Yellow Submarine, and Let It Be. Some were cinematic successes, and some were not, but―along with subsequent reissues, bonus material, and Peter Jackson's The Beatles: Get Back, a documentary companion to Let It Be―they comprise an endlessly fascinating document of key phases in the group's career.In this comprehensive deep-dive into the band's movies, author and longtime music journalist Steve Matteo follows the origins, filming, and often frenzied fan reception of projects from the 1964 premiere of A Hard Day's Night through 1970's Let It Be to the release of Get Back in 2022. Matteo explores the production process, original theatrical film releases, subsequent VHS, DVD, and Blu-ray releases, and bonus materials, along with the US and UK soundtracks. In addition to copious anecdotes and behind-the-scenes details, he also places these films in their larger context, a period of unprecedented artistic and commercial innovation in British and world cinema. Filled with stories and insights that will satisfy collectors, buffs, and casual fans alike, this is the definitive account of an underappreciated part of the Beatles' creative output.

What if home isn't a place you find, but a place you build step by step? I sit down with author and family physician, Brittany Penner, to unpack Children Like Us: A Métis Woman's Memoir of Family, Identity and Walking Herself Home, her powerful Métis memoir about identity, adoption, and the radical work of healing. From being carried out of the hospital by a social worker to navigating a white Mennonite upbringing, Brittany traces how the Sixties Scoop shaped her beginnings and how lineage still insists on being seen-- in faces, gestures, and the stories that refuse to disappear.Brittany shares the artistic leap that changed everything: throwing away a 100,000-word draft(!!!) and rebuilding the book through photographs and VHS tapes. We talk about using images to verify memory, honor body knowledge, and write with precision without losing lyric grace. She opens up about medicine too and reveals how tending to her own pain transformed how she advocates for Indigenous women in clinical settings, why believing someone can be the most clinical act of all, and how she protects joy in her creative life so it doesn't calcify under the weight of systems.At the heart of this conversation is a simple practice with a profound arc: walking herself home. After a separation that reawakened old losses, Brittany found steadiness in daily walks, watching seasons turn as grief softened. We explore found family, kinship that ignores the word “half,” and the way motherhood reframes generational trauma with tenderness and resolve. If you're wrestling with where you belong, how to write your truth, or how to hold hope when hope feels heavy, this episode offers a map that is honest and quietly brave.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review.

Guest Spot Episode: In this episode, we're diving into Solo (1996) — the high-octane, cyber-soldier action flick starring Mario Van Peebles as a government-made killing machine who grows a conscience and goes rogue. It's got jungle warfare, robot ethics, 90s cheese, and some wild explosions. We're not going solo on this one either — we're joined by the @B-Action Podcast crew to help us close out the Month of Action in style. Come hang with us as we ask: Was Solo ahead of its time or just a forgotten VHS relic? Why did Mario Van Peebles deserve better? And how does it stack up against other '90s sci-fi action? Don't just watch Action, B-Action!!!
In this special bonus episode recorded before their Season 8 finale discussion, Berly and LA score the ultimate get: Ben Edlund himself, the genius writer-producer who literally gave their podcast its name with that iconic "denim-wrapped nightmares" line from Season 6.Ben takes the hosts on a wild ride through his Supernatural journey, from joining the show in Season 2 (after binge-watching all of Season 1 on VHS tapes like some kind of monster) to navigating what he describes as the show's "muscle car, bro-y" culture while being the guy who brought whimsy and chaos to the series. He reveals the origin stories behind fan-favorite episodes like "Monster Movie" (spoiler: it involved solving the "good will hunting on the board" problem of classic Hollywood monsters), "The French Mistake" (originally pitched as more Broadway Danny Rose, Kripke made it meta perfection), and the Ghost Facers theme song (yes, that's Ben singing in falsetto).The conversation gets emotional discussing "Abandon All Hope" and the heartbreaking deaths of Ellen and Jo—a decision Ben clarifies wasn't solely his but one he committed to making as devastating as possible. He also defends killing too many characters (sort of), explains why Andy and Bobby should've stuck around for story leverage, and admits he probably wouldn't kill a dog in "Repo Man" if he wrote it today.Fair warning: Ben's a delightfully rambling genius who goes on tangents about everything from Bat Boy to Steely Dan production modes, and the hosts are living for every minute of it.Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_EdlundFootnote: Since the recording of this interview, Berly and LA have, in fact, cried during another one of their episodes.Send us your review!Support the showTHANK YOU FOR LISTENING!Please rate and review Denim-Wrapped Nightmares wherever you get your podcasts!
