2026/04/23

Leprechaun 4: In Space (1996, 1997) is the greatest cinematic crime against both Ireland and outer space! Starring Warwick Davis (with a great performance), the Leprechaun somehow manages to be the only serious character in this muddled mess of a movie.All that being said, this film does give us the first appearance of the green light saber! Move over, Yoda... Here comes Lubdan the Leprechaun!

2026/03/31

Serving as a soft reboot of the series after the disastrous Leprechaun: Origins (accidently released in 2014), Leprechaun Returns (2018) finds Linden Porco taking over the role of the leprechaun.Ignoring all the previous sequels, Returns is a direct sequel to the 1993 film. Regarding the plot, we see the daughter of Tory Redding (Jennifer Aniston's original role) encounter the leprechaun as she works with her new sorority sisters to remodel the farmhouse from the original movie.

"Try as they will, and try as they might, who steals me gold won't live through the night!"What better way to get into the St. Patrick's Day spirit than starting a new series: the Leprechaun movies featuring Warwick Davis!Starting with the original (Leprechaun, 1993), this film is also significant as one of Jennifer Aniston's first roles, a role she may or may not be proud of. Either way, we're confident that her and Warwick remain f.r.i.e.n.d.s.

Based on the failed Superman musical, It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman! (1975) is one of the oddest forgotten relics in Superman history. A made for TV special, the musical was doomed from the start, airing (only once) at 11:30pm EST.Thankfully, at least one person recorded it and we found it. Come join us as we reflect on yet another identity crisis in the DC Universe!

Ever wondered what happens when Superman (George Reeves) swaps his cape for a sales pitch or Uncle Sam?In this obscure 1954 short film, Stamp Day for Superman, Superman busts a burglar who is basically just a guy who didn't have a budget, and Lois Lane gets snagged by his accomplice (who literally just asks her to come get captured, to which she obliges).The moral of the story? Kids should support our country by buying US Savings Stamps!

Time for some Shaq-Fu! Well, not actually.Today we re-visit Steel (1997), which sees Shaquille O'Neal portray a not-so-super supporting character from the Superman universe. Unfortunately, this movie completely ignores any Superman connection (other than Shaq's real life tattoo).Ultimately, this movie had an identity crisis, which perhaps shouldn't surprise us considering it was a DC property. A PG-13 movie with a script that could have been written for Nickelodeon, Steel was no Space

"This looks like a job for . . . Superman!"Before George Reeves became an iconic Superman, gracing the silver screen and fighting for the rights of mole people, two serials were produced by Columbia pictures.Today we look at the second serial, which originally ran as 15 weekly chapters before a feature film. Starring Kirk Alyn as Supes, we see Luther (Lyle Talbot) blackmail the city of Metropolis as he threatens to nuke the city with the help of Atom Man (who wears a glittery stormtrooper

Rankin/Bass Assemble! The conclusion of at least three trilogies at the same time (Rudolph, Frosty, Mickey Rooney's Santa Claus, and possibly Jack Frost), Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July (1979) is in many ways the Endgame of the Rankin/Bass multiverse.In it, we see the Cosmic Forces at play in Rudolph's origin story and how this lynchpin of the multiverse must go to war to reclaim his hero status (and save a cowgirl's circus)!

2025/12/01

After 4 movies with the lovable Jason (and his mother), the Friday the 13th franchise decided to go in a bold new direction and begin what would become a new trilogy of films.The result? This movie was so bad, and people were so disappointed, that the "new beginning" only lasted one movie. Jason returned in Part 6!So, while we don't necessarily recommend watching this movie, come join us as we discuss Friday the 13th, Part 5: A New Beginning (1985)!

While Michael Myers makes a cameo appearance in this movie as an actor (they play the original movie in the background!), the Shape as a force to be reckoned with is nowhere to be found in the third installment of the franchise.Instead, we get the tale of an Irish witch sacrificing millions of children to the season of Winter by using trick-of-treating masks empowered by dust from Stonehenge via hidden microchips. Get all that? Welcome to Halloween 3: Season of the Witch (1982)!
