The Grifters (1990)

"Tequila Sunrise" commissioner Rachel C. returns with another '90s movie full of sexy people doing confusing things. This week, it's "The Grifters," a 1990 neo-noir thriller that proves even John Cusack, Anjelica Huston, and Annette Bening have their off days.

This movie about con people and the con people who love them led to such classy topics as discount grandmas, boob fingerprints, nostalgia trolls, and the kinds of sexual favors landlords can reasonably expect from tenants attempting to seduce them.

"The Grifters," nominated for multiple Academy Awards, also brought us the most unlikely death in Shat history and possible the worst heist since "Safe Men," proving critics love anything that hearkens back to old timey movies.

Shat The Movies didn't invent sexual perversion, edgy attitudes and impeccable taste in music, we just perfected it. More than 25 years earlier, Christian Slater inspired teens to "talk hard" in the 1...

Short Circuit (1986)

We noticed all the biggest podcasts seem to have celebrity hosts, murder or hot takes. Shat The Movies lacks star power. And it doesn't have thrilling true-crime tales. So this week we're banking on m...
