Pulp Fiction (1994)

These dark times call for dark movies, and '80s comedies didn't get any darker than "Heathers." The Winona Ryder and Christian Slater box office flop found a way to laugh at teenage suicide, bulimia, date rape, homosexuality, religion, hypocrisy, cynicism, sex, and murder in a way that made Big D blush. Gene Lyons and Ash Duke join Shat The Movies to relive their high school years, forced emotional outpourings, and Shannen Doherty's face on this episode commissioned by longtime listener Dan Fletcher and spooky podcaster Carmelita Valdez McKoy.   How did Stanley Kubrick impact "Heathers"? Was the pep rally scene inspiration for "Smells Like Teen Spirit"? Why did young Ashley own a monocle? And most importantly: Is Heathers a truly groundbreaking film or just a cult classic. Find out in this week's "Shat The Movies."

Can a movie based on commercial relationships be so bad, it's excellent? That was the question posed by Jim B & family when he commissioned the 1988 rip-off of ET, #MacAndMe. Big D uses a sick day, so Rog invites his cohosts of @TheFloridaMen, Benny & Mister C to review the film that Paul Rudd turned into a cult classic through his numerous appearances on the Conan O'Brien Show. Benny admires the interior decorating skills of the young alien while filmmaker Mister C theorizes MAC's alien race went extinct due to vacuum cleaners. All three hosts feel cheated that neither Ronald McDonald nor the San Francisco 49ers showed up to their birthday parties. So, sit back, grab a straw, and enjoy the healthy products of our corporate overlords. It's the latest episode of STM.

Could the best adaptation of Jane Austen's "Emma" be the version that explores the lifestyles of over-privileged rich teenagers living in Beverly Hills during the mid-90s? That was the question raised by listener Sarah L when she commissioned the 1995 hit comedy, #Clueless. Ash joins Rog & Big D to break down the film that defined fashion trends throughout the decade. Ash fawns over Amy Heckerling's screenplay and the new direction of teen movies while Big D questions whether Cher's manipulation methods create an unhealthy double standard when it comes to gender roles. All three hosts get lost in the nostalgia of the soundtrack. So, let's hop in our Jeep, kiss our ex-stepbrother, and head to the valley for a ragin' house party...it's the latest episode of STM.

If we sealed 90’s pop culture in a time capsule and opened it up 30 years later, the result would be a VHS tape of the 1992 film, #WaynesWorld. As a birthday present to himself, listener Steve W commissioned the that inspired numerous comedies throughout the decade. Classic features like “It’s Pat” and “Stuart Saves His Family”…..NOT! Rog & Big D record from their Mom's basement studio while reacquainting themselves with early 90’s vernacular such as “Schwing,” “Party On,” & “Ass Sphincter.” Big D revels in breaking the 4th wall while Rog gives credit to the real hero of the movie: Director Penelope Spheeris. The OG Shat Duo share personal stories of how Wayne's World inspired them to find each other and create an underground entertainment show. So, let’s hop in the MerthMobile & crank up the volume on Bohemian Rhapsody, it’s time for the latest episode of STM. Party time, excellent!

Teenage coming-of-age films saturated the 80's box office, but only one combined an oversexed virgin, wrestling singlets, and Madonna: #VisionQuest. Long time Shat the Movies listener Nelson commissioned the 1985 film that some have described as "Rocky w/ Nosebleeds." AEW Wrestling Superstar, QT Marshall (aka Mike Cuellari), accompanies Rog & Big D to breakdown Louden's journey. QT explains the insecurity of being in the ring wearing underwear while Rog finds himself strangely attracted to State Champion, Brian Shute. Big D rewrites the ending to lead into a much darker sequel. All three hosts wish they had a father figure like Elmo in their life. Zip up that sauna suit and let's go for a run, it's the latest episode of STM.

We all agree that these are pretty turbulent times. Appropriately, it was with great anticipation that we circled our calendar for the 1994 Oscar-winning juggernaut, #ForrestGump. Commissioned by listener Joshua R, the film that solidified Tom Hanks as an American Icon was a welcomed respite from the cynical nature of today's movies. Kevin Bracket of Reel Spoilers joins Rog & Big D on a nostalgia trip through what some have called "a baby-boomer version of Disney's America." Kevin swoons over the double-disc soundtrack while Big D questions whether the song selections were too "Randy Newman-like" for his taste. Rog discloses his desire to go forth on an adventure with just his thoughts. All three hosts proclaim Sally Field deserved an award for her performance. So, lace up those tennis shoes and take a piece of chocolate from the box. It's time for the latest episode of STM.

When it comes to cult musicals, we typically think of Rocky Horror Picture Show, Little Shop of Horrors, & This Is Spinal Tap. However, a little film about the T-Birds, Pink Ladies, and overt references to sexual intercourse has quietly become a new generational cult movie. No...not that Grease, we're talking about Grease 2! Listener Mike from Norfolk is part of that new Rydell High School crew that stopped hand-jiving and started bowling. He even went so far as to build a replica of the "Cool Rider's" Honda Scrambler. It was fate that he commission Shat The Movies to review his favorite obsession. Fellow Grease 2 enthusiast, Ash joins Roger & Big D to debate whether the sequel is better than the original. Ash swoons over the empowering female character of Stephanie, while Big D explains the rules of being a Pink Lady. Rog discounts Ash's favorite song as nothing more than a B-Side recording from Meatloaf. All three hosts cringe during the "Let's Do It For Our Country" performance. So, put on a leather jacket without a shirt underneath and get ready to jump the luau pool. It's the latest episode of STM.

When you want a hitman, you hire the best. When you want a review of your favorite 90's film, you hire Shat the Movies(?). That's the conclusion Mike from Quincy reached when he commissioned the 1994 English-language French action thriller, #TheProfessional. Shat on TV's Rookie of the Year, Ashley Schlafly joins Roger & Big D in Little Italy to follow a reserved Jean Reno, a sadistic Gary Oldman, and a younger-than-we-remembered Natalie Portman in a movie that was robbed by "Wild Reeds" at the 20th Cesar Awards. Ash explores the complexity of Matilda's relationship with Leon while Rog explores the purity symbolism of milk in classic cinema. Big D asks the question: "Is Leon slow, or is he just foreign?". All three hosts swim in the uncomfortableness of that scene with the dress. You know the one. So, let's head to the corner bodega for two quarts. It's the latest episode of STM.
