The Boondock Saints (1999)

Boobs. "Species" is a movie about boobs: great boobs, alien boobs, killer boobs, gooey boobs. But the 1995 movie that introduced the world to Natasha Henstridge is so much more. It made Ash and Big D sympathize with a killer alien. It made Michael Madsen try to be an action star. And it turned Gene Lyons into a sci-fi lawyer. In this edition, we put on our lab coats and dissect the mating habits and menstrual discharge of human hybrids, debate whether inviting a lady to shower is polite or perverted, applaud terrific police work, question laboratory protocols, evaluate the sex appeal of Alfred Molina, and utterly shatter Dick Ebert's optimistic view of the film's end scene.

We all remember Christina Applegate as the ditzy Kelly Bundy from TV's "Married with Children," but people often forget she did '90s movies, too. Before starring in "Anchorman" and "Bad Moms," a young Applegate went dark and quirky with "Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead." Commissioner Brad N. told the Shat Crew to do its worst on this comedy, not knowing it was an Ash Schlafly favorite and just wild enough to entertain Gene. The big question: What will Big D say? There's a lot to love with this teen movie, including Bernie Sanders as a babysitter, damaged kids, horrible parenting, Scientology jokes, an adorable romance, and sexy villains. Yes, that is David Duchovny. Ash makes the case that Josh Charles is hot; Gene mourns the loss of another great stoner; and Big D gives us a lecture on responsibility and respect for the dead.

Jim Carrey scored a perfect 0 Wipe Score with "Dumb and Dumber" and almost did it again with "Cable Guy." Can "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" keep the streak alive? Find out why Ace's look gets Ash worked up. Learn about proper dolphin stewardship from Gene. And reminisce with Big D about Super Bowl XXV as the Shat Crew explores the one-liners, physical comedy, and a surprising abundance of sexual situations that made this 1994 comedy a classic. We also delve into "The Crying Game," how the animals kept still, famous rappers-turned-actors, Courteney Cox's shortcomings, and what a dork Dan Marino is.   SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW Android: http://shatthemovies.com/android Apple/iTunes: http://shatthemovies.com/itunes Social Media: Twitch, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat Website: http://shatthemovies.com/ HELP SUPPORT THE PODCAST Donate with Paypal: http://shatthemovies.com/paypal Donate With Venmo: https://venmo.com/shatpodcasts Get Podcast Merchandise: http://shatthemovies.com/shop Shop Amazon With Our Affiliate Link: https://www.amazon.com/?tag=shatmovies-20 Sponsor's Listener Survey: http://shatthemovies.com/survey Leave an iTunes Review: http://shatthemovies.com/review Vote for our Next Movies: http://shatthemovies.com/vote Feeds & Social Media: http://shatthemovies.com/subscribe-and-follow Leave a Voicemail: (914) 719-SHAT - (914) 719-7428 Email: hosts@shatthemovies.com Listen to our TV Podcasts: https://shatontv.com/shat-on-podcasts Theme Song - Die Hard by Guyz Nite: https://www.facebook.com/guyznite

Ash makes Shat The Movies history as we motorboat our way through a star-studded film with the coolest movie poster of 1988: "Tequila Sunrise." This is a serious movie with serious cops who seriously love peanuts and throwing coffee while sleeping with witnesses and chatting on gigantic walkie-talkies. We've got saxophones, sunsets, swing sets, and more twists than a bowl of Olive Garden spaghetti. In this episode commissioned by listener Rachel C., Gene decodes the noises old Iranian uncles make. Big D can't decide if the film is stupid or he is, and Ash puts on her scuba suit to explore underwater hot tub sex.

When we think of the best '90s horror movies, we think of "It," "Event Horizon," "Jacob's Ladder," and "Scream." Nobody ever brings up "The Silence of the Lambs." Maybe they're too scared. This cinematic gamechanger introduced us to the terror Anthony Hopkins could unleash and reminded us just how sharp Jodie Foster's jawline really is. In this brothers' birthday gift to listener Jon R., The Shat Crew settles life-or-death questions, including: Why make a skin dress when a "skin vagina" will do? Who approved these action sequences? How did Buffalo Bill kills so many women when he's so bad at killing? Why is society so interested in how people were killed, rather than why? And what was with the anagrams? Hear the tale of Big D brutalizing a fellow soldier; learn the history behind Precious the Poodly-Poo, and celebrate this masterpiece with some fava beans and a nice chianti.  SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW Android: http://shatthemovies.com/android Apple/iTunes: http://shatthemovies.com/itunes Social Media: Twitch, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat Website: http://shatthemovies.com/ HELP SUPPORT THE PODCAST Donate with Paypal: http://shatthemovies.com/paypal Donate With Venmo: https://venmo.com/shatpodcasts Get Podcast Merchandise: http://shatthemovies.com/shop Shop Amazon With Our Affiliate Link: https://www.amazon.com/?tag=shatmovies-20 Sponsor's Listener Survey: http://shatthemovies.com/survey Leave an iTunes Review: http://shatthemovies.com/review Vote for our Next Movies: http://shatthemovies.com/vote Feeds & Social Media: http://shatthemovies.com/subscribe-and-follow Leave a Voicemail: (914) 719-SHAT - (914) 719-7428 Email: hosts@shatthemovies.com Listen to our TV Podcasts: https://shatontv.com/shat-on-podcasts Theme Song - Die Hard by Guyz Nite: https://www.facebook.com/guyznite

Shat The Movies is no stranger to Nicolas Cage movies and teen movies; it was only a matter of time before the two collided in the '80s classic "Valley Girl," a film that stoked our loins and crushed our hopes.  It's something like "Romeo and Juliet"—in that both scripts have characters and things happen—but calling Randy and Julie star-crossed lovers is a stretch. "Valley Girl" feels more like a mix of "Grease" and "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" (another Nic Cage flick), with some painful lingo to spice things up. Gene was utterly confounded, asking: Do girls really check out boys en masse? Why didn't hippies turn into cool '80s parents? Why do all the characters look the same age? And is Randy a stalker? Ash set the record straight by letting us know girls don't dance around in their underwear at sleepovers, radio dedications are romantic, New Orleans parents are super chill, and Nic Cage is a good kisser. And Big D was the biggest fan of all: excited by the seedy side of Hollywood, cheering for the live music acts, and longing to live in a body small enough for car sex.

On paper, "Boogie Nights" looks destined to fail: A new, 27-year-old director Paul Thomas Anderson gambling on making a period drama about porn ... starring Marky Mark and Burt Reynolds ... based on a short film about a guy named "Dirk Diggler" that Anderson made when he was 18.  But instead of a campy tits-and-ass disco disaster, "Boogie Nights" turned out to be a breakout film powered by picture-perfect camerawork, a mind-blowing soundtrack, a swirl of emotions, and a dynamite cast including Philip Seymour Hoffman, Julianne Moore, Heather Graham, William H. Macy, John C. Reilly, and Don Cheadle.  Seriously, all those people were in one movie that featured a prosthetic dong, crappy kung fu, and bell bottoms. Ash, Dick, and Gene naturally swooned over this masterpiece of '90s cinema, which brought up conversations about vintage porn, the darkness of the '80s, drug PSAs, Thomas Jayne, and of course that time Ash commissioned Shat the Movies to cover "Magnolia."

Canadian listeners Denis and Jillian commissioned this year's Shat Christmas comedy, "Trading Places," explaining that it's been their holiday comfort movie for years. Upon viewing, we're not sure it's a Christmas movie, or a comedy, or particularly comforting. But Trading Places made some bold social statements, helped elevate Eddie Murphy to one of the hottest names in Hollywood and got Jamie Lee Curtis topless. Join the Shat Crew on this holiday romp as we discuss power suits, the difference between "True Lies" and "The Full Monty," frozen orange juice concentrate, stolen valor, and the horrible disguises of '80s cinema.
