Tori Spelling stars as the headlining cheerleader in the second in our Lifetime True Crime double feature, Death of a Cheerleader, directed by William A Graham. Based on the sad 1984 murder of Kirsten Costas, this Lifetime movie showcases all of Tori Spelling’s raw acting talent, which can only be compared to that of a comatose ferret. Oh, and she’s The post 30 –<BR> Death of a Cheerleader 1994 appeared first on BannedCast. | |||
| 29 – A Killer Among Friends 1992 | 17 août 2020 | 01:04:27 | |
This week we kick off our Lifetime True Crime double feature with Charles Robert Carner’s A Killer Among Friends. How closely does this dramatization staring Tiffani Amber Thiessen and Patty Duke hew to the true events of the tragic murder of Michele “Missy” Avila, and how effectively do those early 90’s fashions help convey the sense of impending horror?

| 28 – Predator 1987 | 03 août 2020 | 01:05:47 | |
The second in our alien double feature, it’s our review of John McTiernan’s Predator! Why are we reviewing this cult classic?

| 27 – The Thing 1982 | 20 juil. 2020 | 01:05:02 | |
It’s the first in our alien double feature that totally omits that iconic 1979 Ridley Scott film! Today we instead review the equally iconic 1982 John Carpenter film The Thing. We get to the bottom of Kurt Russell’s beard, Wilford Brimley’s diabetes, and Donald Moffat’s eyebrows, with some mention about plot, cinematography, and all that other stuff. But those eyebrows The post 27 –<BR> The Thing 1982 appeared first on BannedCast. | |||

| 25 – Cobra 1986 | 22 juin 2020 | 01:12:12 | |
It’s the double feature no one was asking for: Stallone Cops! We begin with George Cosmatos’s Cobra, in which Stallone plays a policeman who doesn’t like junk food, Coors Light, or Mexicans in cars listening to Gloria Estafan. This movie is the disease, and BannedCast is the cure! Listen to BannedCast Movie Trash for reviews and discussions of the movies The post 25 – <BR> Cobra 1986 appeared first on BannedCast. | |||

And you thought those Star Wars prequels were bad. It’s time for the second in our Space Jam double feature having nothing to do with either Michael Jordan or Looney Tunes although there is plenty of slapstick comedy in this “sci-fi” adventure from director Luc Besson, The Fifth Element.

Covid-19 lockdown continues as we travel to the stars for the first in our Space Jam double feature having nothing to do with either Michael Jordan or Looney Tunes.

It’s time for the second in our stripper double feature, Paul Verhoeven’s Showgirls! And don’t you dare call Nomi a stripper—she’s a dancer goddamnit. One of us is convinced that this movie is better than its reputation as one of the worst films ever made, and one of us thinks its reputation suits it just fine.

Time for the second in our pandemic double feature, it’s Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion, a movie featuring just the right amount of Gwyneth Paltrow and perhaps not enough Kate Winslet. Is this pandemic movie better than Outbreak? Listen to find out because the answer is most definitely ‘yes’—Outbreak sucked apart from a few rednecks getting lit up by an army helicopter.

| 20 – BONUS Tiger King Reunion | 20 avr. 2020 | 00:29:29 | |
The cast of Tiger King reunited and it feels so damn good that we had to discuss it on a BannedCast bonus episode.

More contentious than pro choice versus pro life, Republican versus Democrat, and Billie Eilish versus musical talent is Joe Exotic versus Carol Baskin, and at least one of us is on team Baskin. That’s right, we’re interrupting our pandemic double feature to talk Rebecca Chaiklin and Eric Goode’s docuseries Tiger King in a podcast that’s probably two weeks too late The post 19 –<BR> Tiger King 2020 appeared first on BannedCast. | |||

Is Jennifer Lopez really 50 years old?! If she is, Jenny from the block doesn’t look a day over 49-and-a-half.

Many have heard of it, few have seen it, and fewer still have anything good to say about it. Today we kick off our barroom double feature with Roger Donaldson’s 1988 film Cocktail. How bad is it?
