BMFcast Extra 083 – Gray Lady Down
Gray Lady Down (1978) is a star-studded submarine disaster movie which sometimes focuses more on procedure over spectacle. Still, this new Shout Factory Blu-ray might be worth a look. Also discussed are Twin Peaks (1990) and Heavenly Bodies (1984).
We are tinkering with the formula of BMFcast Extra starting with this episode and would LOVE your feedback. Please leave us a note letting us know what you think.

BMFcast431 – Capital Punishment – Project KICK
Capital Punishment (1991) had a budget of $12 after paying stars Gary Daniels and David Carradine. Supposedly it’s about a killer drug that gives you super adrenaline and makes your babies born deformed. Gary Daniels is an underground kickboxer who both gets swept up in the investigation and was a part of it all along? It’s weird.
In the second half, Harlo raves about Sorry to Bother You and The Ant-Man and the Wasp, while Chuck references Ready Player One. Then everyone fights about movie musicals. Enjoy!

BMFcast Extra 082 – The Phantom
The Phantom (1996) is a mistreated superhero movie that is just starting to gain a cult status. It features Billy Zane and Treat Williams hamming it up (as they should) and it’s worth a look. SO GO LOOK.

BMFcast430 – American Cyborg Steel Warrior – Jarsus
American Cyborg Steel Warrior (1993) is a silly title for this very late stage Cannon Films effort that features a lady, a cyborg, the star of Hologram Man and a fetus in a jar. They’re all going from one side of Charleston, SC to the other, for varying reasons. Along the way bullets fly and everyone gets kicked in the face!
In the second half, Maki has thoughts on Solo: A Star Wars Story and Spaceballs. Chuck spends time on Amazon Prime with Electric Dreams and A Very British Scandal. And Harlo enjoys several Coen Brothers movies. You enjoy too!

BMFcast Extra 081 – Brenda Starr
Brenda Starr (1989) is good starring vehicle for Brooke Shields but it stumbles along the way for reasons that are difficult to nail down. However, Timothy Dalton is here to be awesome and attempt to save the day.
