The Flop House

Covid has kept us from in-person live shows for more than two years, but last weekend we made our triumphant return at The Bell House in Brooklyn, and we hope to line up more soonish (in addition to keeping the odd streaming show)! What could possibly live up to that event status? Uh... how about a LIVING VAMPIRE? We discuss Morbius! Fangs to all who came out in person!Wikipedia entry for MorbiusEver tried Microdosing?

Stuart tries to explain JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to Dan and Elliott. Are they more confused afterward than they were at the beginning? Perhaps! Thank you to Policygenius for their sponsorship.

Episode 375 is ALIVE! We keep raiding Blank Check for some of our finest guest stars, which is why it was only a matter of time before we'd add "America's finest film critic," Ben Hosley, to that list. And Ben asked if he could do "that stupid robot movie from the 80's," and following a brief round of "Is THIS the Film?, Dan figured out that Ben was asking for Short Circuit 2. Thus it twas spake. Thus it came to pass.Wikipedia entry for Short Circuit 2Movies recommended in this episodeThe CatThe CounselorRRRAssassin's CreedEver tried Microdosing?

It may SOUND like a Cinemax film from the 90s, but Virtual Obsession was actually a 3-hour ABC television EVENT, starring Peter "Caterpillar Brow" Gallagher, Mimi Rogers, and Bridgette Wilson, and directed by Mick "I Know Stephen King" Garris. Will Dan be able to convince Stu and Elliott that they're sad they missed it?Ever tried Microdosing? Visit Microdose.com and use FLOP for 30% off + Free Shipping.

Somehow one of the most boring movies we've EVER covered on the show + Dan recovering from Covid-19 = an especially raucous episode of The Flop House. We suddenly remembered that we could watch horror movies during months that AREN'T October, so we decided to make the ultimate sacrifice to watch Firestarter -- we signed up for Peacock. Did we regret it? Listen to find out!Wikipedia entry for FirestarterMovies recommended in this episodeNanny McPheeFire IslandThrough a Glass Darkly

We may not love the direction the country is headed right now, but at least the recent Independence Day holiday inspired this hilarious game from Elliott!

The Mixed-Review House rolls on with Kenneth Branagh's second outing as Hercule Poirot, Death on the Nile. It's a character he seems committed to playing, despite seemingly having no particular understanding or affinity for the source material. But hey, at least he's keeping the CGI pyramids industry in business!Wikipedia entry for Death On the NileMovies recommended in this episodeMad GodMiami ViceHorror Express

Dan's back in the driver's seat for this mini, and he challenges Elliott and Stu to a game so insidious, it almost breaks the podcast.Ever tried Microdosing? Visit Microdose.com and use FLOP for 30% off + Free Shipping.

Despite its relative financial success and reviews that are more "mixed" than bad, M. Night Shyamalan has become such a FH all-star, that we had to check out Old: The Beach that Olds People. (As Dan is fond of saying, "Don't get hung up on our name.") Unsurprisingly, it gave us a ton to chew on. Please don't be mad at us just cause we don't think it's a masterpiece, Blank Check buddies. Maybe y'all should skip this one. Everyone else in the world -- enjoy!Wikipedia entry for OldMovies recommended in this episodeCrimes of the FutureBrotherhood of the WolfMädchen in UniformEver tried Microdosing?

Elliott takes us on another journey through a movie ONE of us have seen, but the others haven't -- in this case, the gritty crime thriller Night of the Juggler, a movie completely devoid of juggling.Ever tried Microdosing? Visit Microdose.com and use FLOP for 30% off + Free Shipping.
