    When we were together for our live show, we took the opportunity to record a pair of in-person Shocktober episodes, and here's the second! We had a lot of fun trying to untangle FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S 2, which is based on a video game none of us know much about and the sequel to a movie 2/3rds of us hadn't seen! Perfect Flop House conditions. Lees meer

    Afspelen
    When we were all in Louisville together for our live show, we took the opportunity to record a pair of Shoctober episodes all together in person, and this is the first one! What happens when the only version of Dracula that Luc Besson seems to be familiar with is "Bram Stoker's Dracula?" We get DRACULA (2026), which takes all the extra nonsense from the Coppola version and adds some more French nonsense on top of it. Lees meer

    Afspelen
    Much like a horror movie villain, the Scream movies refuse to die, even though with every new sequel the films shed more of what that made the franchise special and the whole thing just becomes a regular ol' slasher series. Eventually you get late installments like SCREAM 7. Some have called it the worst Scream of all! Will we agree? Lees meer

    We say goodbye to Smalltember with a true bad movie jewel (thanks to Alonso Duralde for recommending it) -- the kid/tween/teen musical comedy STANDING OVATION, one of the few movies about a singing competition that also makes room for a mob subplot and a child who threatens people with deadly animals.

    Afspelen
    Smalltember winds are blowing in, and this year the currents brought us a doozy. SURFER: TEEN CONFRONTS FEARhas already become a new bad movie classic, and we had a lot of fun(?) confronting this strange object that arrived at Flop House central like a beached whale. It's a metaphysical monologue! It's a stealth religious film! It's a military thriller! It's a surfing movie! It's a dad wasting his kid's time! It's a way to use up old home movies by sneaking them into your narrative film! It's all this and much more! Lees meer

    We close out Max Fun Drive 2026 with some true pain. Stuart's proclaimed "least favorite movie," 40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS, a supposed "sexy romcom" that's actually a melange of unfunny shenanigans, poisonous attitudes, nothing that resembles actual human behavior, and (trigger warning) some unacknowledged sexual assault. It's... a lot. But at least it led to a funny episode -- like a flower, blooming from a pile of shit. Lees meer

  31. Exit to Eden

    18 april 2026 · 1 uur 29 min

    Afspelen
    For Max Fun Drive 2026 (starting this Monday 4/20)the Peaches issued a fiendish challenge to one another -- we each get ONE pick to bedevil the others with, and Stuart starts us off with a doozy: 1994's EXIT TO EDEN. It started out as an erotic BDSM novel by Anne Rice, so clearly the best person to bring the heat was Garry Marshall, known for such previous Flop House faves as Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. So climb on board the sex boat and take a ride with us to sex island as we dissect this wild misfire. Lees meer

    AI is bad, except maybe it's not, maybe AI will help you solve the murder of your wife before it executes you for the murder of its wife... wtf is Mercy saying, anyway? Maybe it's saying if you put your hero in a chair for 100 minutes your movie will feel inert. Especially if Chris Pratt is that hero? Hard to say, but we do our best to untangle one of the silliest flops of the year. Lees meer

    "What's the Bratz of the 2020's?" we asked ourselves, chasing that ultimate Bratz high. "Could it be Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie?" While perhaps not reaching those lofty heights, this was nearly as bonkos as reviews suggested it would be -- a psychedelic fantasia filtered through a combination Hello Kitty/candy store. The movie was not meant for us, but we had a fun time talking about it. Lees meer

    Yes, we never heard of it either.
