Originally published for patrons only on 15 December, 2021 as Dishonorable Unmentionable #20 in the midst of our second season, this mini ep details how Night of the Demons changed Z's relationship to lipstick.

Originally published 28 July, 2024 for patrons as Dishonorable Unmentionable #67 this was a last minute bday ask from Keith. Z relented and has yet to forgive.
Directed by the Michael Mann himself, this feature length version of an episode of the original 1980's tv series feels just as pretentious as you'd expect. Maybe more. Ask Alonso.
Outro: Professor Ping performing Crockett's Theme (Serious Go-Fast edit)

Original published Sept 8, 2021 for our paid subscribers as Dishonorable Unmentionable #13, this episode gave Z a whole new way to hate Tum Crosie and in which Keith realizes that Kelly McGillis is a bit of a... the origin of certain feelings.

Originally published Oct 13, 2021 for our paid subscribers as Dishonorable Unmentionable #15, this remains one of our favorite films to talk sh*t on. Plus it is the origins of Keith's hate affair with all things associated with James Wan.

Friend of the pod Randall joins us for an unprecedented second time in one season!
Unfortunately for another stinker... Ice Pirates (1984) combines an interesting premise, unique scifi aesthetic, an embarrassment of talent, lazy/offensive humor and an inexplicable bevy of tedious robots.
Nevertheless we persisted and talk Mormonism, satanic panic, the Crosby family tree, Betamax and the Vilanch of it all.

Outro: I Hear the Mermaids Singing by Tina Davidson

The only Black lesbian film about Black lesbians in film known to humankind, The Watermelon Woman deserves more recognition. Not just for the unfortunate rarity of those combined identifiers but also for its unique mixing of genres/media, its humor, emotional vulnerability, the risks it take, and overall ambitiousness.

We kick off June with a film we've talked about doing since the inception of this podcast and which we both have recollections of. With performances far better than the material, it's not quite tragi-gay but does feel a bit like a D.A.R.E. presentation.

Turns out this movie chronicles some real life events and askes the view to sympathize with a convicted murderer and sex offender. We were unaware of the film's relation to said events beforehand. But we stan Rupert Graves.

In post-war Los Angeles, Ezekiel Rawlins is just trying to keep a roof over his head. Soon, a job opportunity presents itself that will change his life forever.
In his first of two appearances this month, Denzel brings Walter Mosely's Easy Rawlins to the screen. Although it deviates from the novel in some places, the plot unfolds in a crafty, writerly style.
Oh man, who am i writing for?
Don Cheadle steals the show in this one as Mouse. Lisa Nicole Carson (Coretta) blew us away in her limited screen time. And Barry Shabaka Henley is perfect as the Woodcutter.
