Better Off Dead (1985)

Better Off Dead (1985)

Listener John Enright asked Shat The Movies a year ago to put the Best of John Cusack up for a vote. Then he waited month after month and heard nothing: no "Say Anything," no "Grosse Pointe Blank," no "Sixteen Candles."

Fed up, Enright decided to grease the skis of justice with some hard-earned cash and three words everyone had been dying to hear: "Better Off Dead."

Big D nearly fainted. Gene Lyons squealed. Roger asked, "Is that the one with the boombox?"

"Better Off Dead" truly is a movie that would not get made today: a little-known short-film director named Savage Steve casting an obscure young actor in a lead role about teen suicide, featuring Korean drag racers who only speak Howard Cosell, possible exchange student sex slavery, and stop-motion dancing hamburgers? What could be more '80s?

This warm blanket of nostalgia took us back to Dick Ebert's childhood memories of collecting G.I. Joe Flag Points and throwing piss bombs from his third-floor video gaming nest. And it unearthed Roger's woeful tale of the breakup that ruined him for life.

Meanwhile, Gene tells listeners why jumping is a terrible way to kill yourself and Old Man Dick Ebert rails against paperboy Johnny and his quest for $2.

Braveheart (1995)

Braveheart (1995)

Premature kilts, revised history, foppish Brits, Crossfit Scots, a 40-year-old Mel Gibson, a hot 9-year-old princess, undying love, and a romance nobody wanted to see. "Braveheart" brought a new degree of violence and complexity to the historical action genre and made 3 hours fly by. Don't miss Roger Roeper's triumphant and sexually-charged return to Shat The Movies, Big D's baffling discussion of black eyes, and Gene's uncomfortably intimate recollections of his high school science teacher.

Timecop (1994)

Timecop (1994)

Laughable wardrobes, finding excuses for Jean Claude Van Damme to kick things, gratuitous Belgian sex, gratuitous Belgian sax, an avalanche of one-liners, massive plot holes and The Splits Over Troubled Waters ... it's Timecop! Gene gets deep into physics and time travel theory. Kerri eviscerates the previously unknown "Timecop is like Blade Runner" crowd, and Big D perfect YET ANOTHER action star accent.

Conan the Barbarian (1982)

Conan the Barbarian (1982)

Soundtrack of the gods, camel-punching, surprise romance, imperfect allies, meaty snakes, cannibalistic orgies, and a unanimous Shat Score. Conan The Barbarian often is lumped in the same shitpile as other fantasy movies, including its sequel, but this abused gem gets nearly everything right. Hear all the reasons to love this not-quite-blockbuster underdog, including its strange literary origins and historical references, and learn just how dangerous this movie was to make. Big D impersonates Arnold Schwarzenegger during climax. Kerri Gross endorses Conan from a feminist's perspective, and Gene struggles to keep it together.

Casino (1995)

Casino (1995)

A sparkling Sharon Stone, labyrinth storylines, crappy explosions, loud suits, popping eyeballs, James Woods pimpin', and a Joe Pesci blowjob? When you want it all, "Casino" delivers. And it takes 3 tectonic hours to do it. Guest host Kerri Gross lends a female touch (sorta), encourages domestic violence (sorta), and tells us about the one time she put a glass pipe where glass pipes shouldn't go. Gene counters with a tale of his "gooch" and laments the loss of a Robert DeNiro in his prime. Big D has no idea how to pronounce "Goodfellas."

Flatliners (1990)

Flatliners (1990)

"Med students explore to see what might lie beyond death" might be the advertisement, but what we got was the old bait-and-switch. Instead of that exploration, Flatliners gives us pseudo-Freudian analysis delivered by 1990's Brat Pack 2.0... all of which we found surprisingly enjoyable.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

Did you know 1990's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was the highest grossing independent film of all time? It was. Did you know creature master Jim Henson lent his magic to the film? He did? Did you know this is one of the most clever films ever written, inspiring countless other comic book movies? That one's debatable.
