for the full episode join the Patreon [patreon.com/fashiongrunge] I just saw this for the first time about two weeks ago in the theater (so 80s) thanks to Charles. He told me we just had to cover this for the pod and I'm so glad he did. If I didn't already have a crush on Bruce from 'The Fifth Element' , I now am obsessed with John McLean. This fil…

192: You are the most egocentric corpse I've ever met. | An American Werewolf in Paris (1997) 56:35

2h ago56:35

56:35

This is one of those 90s movies that really shouldn't have been made. Lucky for you that it was so bad that we still ended up having plenty to say about it. Mikey had the unfortunate experience of seeing this in the theater, but in 1997 we were really spoiled for choice at the cinema each week. It wouldn't be a true exploration of 90s movies if we …

1:04:03

If you can believe it, this is my first watch of this cult classic. I somehow managed to never see it until now and I'm obsessed. Of course Mikey is along to talk one of his comfort films and his immense history with this gem. It works for the October season and this also reminds me of The Substance, I've recently seen. Other points are this amazin…

190: Now, was I supposed to turn into the skid? | Hideaway (1995) 1:06:18

20d ago1:06:18

1:06:18

It's movies like this that make me love the 90s. The ability to make multi genre horror thrillers with a domestic medical drama and demon afterlife subplot is unmatched. I was searching for something to review in October and this has been on my list forever, mostly for the stacked cast. I went in knowing nothing and this was nothing short of a wild…

Yes, this is our last foray into the 'Dark Side of the 90s' Vice series.

189: Hey, ladies, wanna see my spirit stick? | Bring It On (2000) 1:04:47

2M ago1:04:47

1:04:47

I'm ashamed to say that this is my first watch of Bring it On. The upside to this is that I loved it and I'm pissed I didn't see it the first go round. I remember everyone talking about it when I was in high school but because I didn't have cheerleaders at any of my schools, the concept of a cheer movie wasn't my bag. This prompted me to create yet…

2M ago58:16

58:16

I love reviewing films that have been on my list for ages but haven't watched yet. This was such a great film that I took me way too long watch. Over the past few years this has become a theme, so much that I made (and will add to) another list on Letterboxd about films I was obsessed with on a late viewing. This has now joined the ranks of that li…

It was the thing you could only dream about, to revisit one of your teen idols crushes from back in the day.

What a doozy of a movie to get back to our regularly scheduled programming here on the pod. For this episode we are talking the plot hole ridden and badly acted film from 2000, The In Crowd. Now, the late 90s and early 00s are riddled with films that you can't even believe were made or 'direct to video' movies and sequels before the dawn of streami…

1:05:48

Since Charles has been waiting 30 years to see this film I had fairly reasonable expectations. Thankfully this film you can find on YouTube, but that's about the only place you'll see it. You would think in 1993 a film starring Jason Priestley of 90210 fame involving a road trip to Hollywood would be a smash. Welp, that didn't happen. Most of the t…
