Moviesucktastic
Summary: Our front lines start at the ticket booth, and our trenches have stadium seating. We spend our mornings picking the jagged shrapnel of fractured plot lines out of our battle-scarred minds. Sure, we could watch good movies. But where's the fun in that? We are grown men with passionate opinions regarding the often adult-themed films we discuss, and are occasionally prone to using bad, naughty, or otherwise unwholesome words. You have been warned.

Continuing with the Halloween Movie fest we talk about It Comes At Night, Goodnight Mommy, Alien Covenant, Stephen King, Killer Klowns From Outer Space, The Gracefield Incident and The Darkness.
More Halloween goodness! This week we talk about the films The Lords or Salem, Life, Day Of The Animals, The Fly (1986) and From Beyond The Grave.
We review Scott's challenge of Galaxy Of Terror and kick off Halloween Horror films for October with The Babadook.
Scott and Joey have been on a small hiatus but they are back and in full force! This episode is mostly a catch up one. We do talk about some films but there is a touch of political talk to even things out.
Enemy Mine was a film that directly challenged Star Wars but in a more serious dramatic attempt. Although better than we remembered it still has its problems. Listen in and decide for yourself.
The Last Starfighter was the first film to utilize all computer graphics by way of Crays Servers. Some scenes look pretty good but most look downright terrible. The film itself isn't entirely bad but we remembered liking it more as kids.
WarGames actually doesn't deserve to get the Moviesucktastic treatment as it's a pretty good film. Everything is top notch from the cinematography to acting. Move along, nothing to see here.
Teen sex, malls, killer robots and the 80's! Just about everything you'd want in a film about such things. Cheesy and poorly acted at times but that won't stop you from liking the hell out of this movie.
Deadly Friend is on many top lists for Wes Craven. Although there are parts of the film that are classic Wes, it feels like the studio may have interfered and deviated from the book a little too much.
Hollywood and computers have always been a bit of an issue in the 80's. Electric Dreams is no different. Although inventive on how technology was used it was completely by accident. Bud Cort as the computers voice is a big plus and saves the film.
With the recent controversy over Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, Joey and Scott head back to Superman's roots and celebrate the greatest Superman film ever made, complete with Richard Pryor as a computer hacker and the infamous junkyard fight.
In the last of this round of listener request episodes, Joey and Scott review two documentaries for Steve Brooks on films that never made it to the big screen, Alejandro Jodorowsky's version of Dune, and Superman Lives starring Nicolas Cage.
Part of Moviesucktastic's listener request reviews, Joey and Scott tackle the slapstick absurdities of Mr. Bean's Holiday for YouTube vlogger Amy McLean. Also on board, some trailers from 360soundandvision for The Face in the Wall and The Glasses 2.
Joey and Scott review the notorious Ken Marshall (who?) vehicle, basically Willow meets Star Wars, with a dash of Tron. If you survived the 80's, you still have nightmares about crushed Cyclops and Charlie Bucket's math teacher turning into animals.
Evils Toons was played on late night Skinemax on a regular basis. Joey never saw it fully until recently and didn't take too well to it's horrible pacing, bad acting and even worse plot structure. Scott was a bit more forgiving (not by much).
