Beowulf (1999)

Remember when we covered "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation" and wondered why Christopher Lambert had be replaced as Raiden? This week, we got our answer: Shat The Movies' favorite Frenchman was busy filming "Beowulf."

On paper, this 1999 sci-fi adaptation of the Old English epic poem sounds like a disaster. In fact, movie commissioner Emmet in Orange had never even seen "Beowulf" when he requested a review.

Filmed on a $3 million budget, this Mortal Kombat-style action-adventure is loaded with anachronistic dialogue, comically odd weapons, overcomplicated gadgets, incredible cleavage and combat that mostly consists of doing flips.

This movie's plot armor makes "Game of Thrones" Season 8 seem reasonable. The soundtrack and bring-your-own-costume style feel like we've slipped into a 1990s Romanian rave, and watching poor Rhona Mitra seduce Christopher Lambert hurt our souls.

In this episode, we discuss the monster who could have been beaten by Kevin McCallister, the succubus who stepped right off the set of a Whitesnake video and how Big D gained 24 pounds in just four days of hanging out with Gene.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

"Terminator 2: Judgment Day" is the rare sequel that launched a franchise from good to unbelievably great. Does "Terminator 2" hold up after two decades? Absolutely. This prime specimen of sci-fi action perfection has it all: Edward Furlong escaping in the aqueduct chase. Arnold Schwarzenegger shredding cop cars in the mini-gun shooting gallery. Robert Patrick jamming his finger through countless heads. Linda Hamilton cracking skulls and field-stripping rifles like a pro. And if all of that doesn't convince you to listen, imagine the joy of hearing Gene, Roger and Big D try to wrap their heads around time travel in a non-determinist universe. "Terminator 2" is God's gift to blockbuster moviemaking, and Shat The Movies worships it.

Beverly Hills Cop (1984)

Beverly Hills Cop (1984)

"Beverly Hills Cop" launched Eddie Murphy's international movie career and was the biggest box office hit of 1984, but is it overrated?  No, dummy. This is the police comedy that brought us the banana in the tailpipe, the synth sounds of "Axel F," the lovable Judge Reinhold at Det. Rosewood and Bronson Pinchot's bizarre accent. Does Eddie Murphy's laugh get annoying? God yes. Do the action sequences make sense? Hell no. But "Beverly Hills Cop" gets our Shat Stamp of Approval. Find out why, and let us know what you think!

The Breakfast Club (1985)

The Breakfast Club (1985)

High School was a very different place for teenagers back in 1985. There were no cell phones, lockers were still in use, and there was this strange building on campus called the "Library" that housed books and delinquents on Saturdays. In this week's review, Rog, Big D, & Gene explore the hit film "The Breakfast Club". We explore whether or not the themes of teenage angst, High School stereotypes, and John Hughes-style diversity still hold up over 30 years later. The Shatty Trio also share stories of their own High School experience, predict where the characters are today, and tackle the question as to why a movie called "The Breakfast Club" only served lunch.

Commando (1985)

Commando (1985)

Give "Commando" some respect! Seriously! This Arnold Schwarzenegger action extravaganza paved the way for watch-based action shows like "24," spawned Arnold comedies like "Kindergarten Cop" and proved you can, in fact, have too much calypso music in a movie. This episode has something for everyone: Big D wows by using his military experience to backseat drive the world's worst Special Forces operatives. Roger busts out his world-famous Austrian accent, and Gene tells the tragic tale of Val Verde, a nation forgotten because it never existed. Relive Schwarzenegger's tactical mistakes, marvel at Dan Hedaya's awkward Spanish accent, swoon over the implied homosexuality, and cringe at the veiled pedophilia. It's all here on Shat The Movies. Sit back, press play, and LET OFF SOME STEAM.

Rocky IV (1985)

Rocky IV (1985)

Rocky IV punched its way into the heart of '80s kid by giving us an overload of all the things America loves: a dopy Sylvester Stallone, a terrifying-yet-misunderstood Dolph Lundgren, a sexy robot, Cold War speeches, Carl Weathers' mustache and training montages. Sure, the punches looked off, the scenes were largely recycled and A GUY DIED IN AN EXHIBITION FIGHT, but after 31 years we're still thrilled by this beefcake brawlapalooza that's tough as snails Leave a Review - http://shatthemovies.com/review Subscribe & Social Media - http://shatthemovies.com/subscribe-and-follow Website - http://shatthemovies.com Email - mailto:hosts@shatthemovies.com Our TV Podcasts - https://shatontv.com/shat-on-podcasts Theme Song - Die Hard by Guyz Nite

The Last Starfighter (1984)

The Last Starfighter (1984)

The Last Starfighter brought us Rylans, the Kodan, Zando-Zans, Grig, Beta Units and whatever the hell Centauri was. It also delivered childhood dreams of video game supremacy that would carry us to the stars. But does all that make up for hammy acting, eye-melting CGI and an alien race who look like balding boobs? That's this week's debate, and Shat The Movies' three-man panel is split like never before. So load up your meteor cannon, strap into your gunstar and get ready to discover a whole lot more about Roger's sex life.

Tombstone (1993)

Tombstone (1993)

"Tombstone" packed in the stars: Kurt Russel, Val Kilmer, Sam Elliot, Bill Paxton, Dana Delaney, Powers Boothe, Charlton Heston, Jason Priestley, Steven Lang, Billy Bob Thornton and more. And it packed in the action with a relentless shoot-em-up pace. But did it pack as big a punch as we remember? From historical accuracy to production quality, let's cock the hammer on this 90's western and explore some hot topics, including: how many shells and double-barreled shotgun holds, when it's permissible to seek a new wife, how long after an assassination attempt you must wait to play billiards, and the difference between Doc Holliday and Doc Hollywood.

Christmas Vacation (1989)

Christmas Vacation (1989)

"National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" tops nearly every list of favorite Christmas movies and holds a warm place in our hearts. But it isn't flawless. For every "shitter was full", there's an attic plank hitting Clark Griswold in the face. For every moment Chevy Chase shows his genius, there's a scene where he's forcing a laugh that never comes. If you're a huge fan of "Christmas Vacation" or a closet hater, this episode of Shat The Movies is for you. Happy holidays from Roger, Gene and Big D.
