BMFcast404 – Nighthawks – Peek A Boo Cop
Nighthawks (1981) combines two of our favorites, Rutger Hauer and Sylvester Stallone (along with Billy Dee Williams) in the story of a couple beat cops tasked with stopping an international terrorist. Does this slow burn thriller pay off for us?
In the second half we go nuts with movies, as we’ve all been quite busy watching the movie based on The Room (2003), The Disaster Artist (2017); hit up Netflix for Master of None and the longly-titled documentary Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond – Featuring a Very Special, Contractually Obligated Mention of Tony Clifton (2017); catch up on some new comedies in The House (2017) and Baywatch (2017); get weird with Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) and weirder with Colossal (2017); and delve into blockbuster fare with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), Jurassic World (2015) and Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015). That might be the longest sentence we’ve ever put together.

BMFcast Extra 056 – Fuzz
Fuzz (1972) is a hard one to talk about, so we go off on tangents like “Why is Burt Reynolds famous?” and “Yul Brynner’s voice: What’s up with that?”

BMFcast Extra 055 – I The Jury
I, The Jury (1982) was recommended to us based on the theme music alone. This adaptation of a couple of Mickey Spillane Mike Hammer novels features Armand Assante as a pissed off private dick doing… something. Whatever it is though, he’s angry about it!

BMFcast403 – Chrome Soldiers – Iraq Defeats Truman
Chrome Soldiers (1992) is a TV movie reuniting two of our favorites: Gary Busey and Yaphet Kotto! However, neither really gets used the way we’d like in this tale of Vietnam Vet bikers taking on corrupt cops and a drug ring in Oregon.
The second half is chock full of so many movies we’re just gonna make a list, so check it out if you like any of the following: Justice League (2017), Spider Man Homecoming (2017), The Maze Runner (2014), Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials (2015), The Hitman’s Bodyguard (2017), The Incredibles (2004), Toy Story 3 (2010), Alien Covenant (2017) extra features, Arsenal (2017), Black Butterfly (2017) or Office Christmas Party (2016). Phew!

BMFcast402 – Security – Molotov Couchtail
Security (2017) is a mix of Die Hard and Home Alone but with Antonio Banderas and Sir Ben Kingsley in a Bulgarian mall-jail. Banderas is a down on his luck security guard whose mall is ambushed by mercenaries looking to kill a small child. How do you say, ah yes, not bad?
In the second half we quickly chat about Suspiria (1977), Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) and Stranger Things 2. Happy Thanksgiving!

BMFcast Extra 053 – Amityville The Awakening
This 97th Amityville sequel has taken many years to finally get released, and now thanks to Google Play you can see it for yourself. However, we debate if you should bother doing that or not.

BMFcast400 – Ninja III The Domination – Clamaydia
Ninja III The Domination (1984) is an oft-requested Sam Firstenberg/Cannon classic. A mysterious ninja goes on a rampage before succumbing to his wounds, but not before possessing an aerobics instructor who continues the murders. Sho Kosugi is also there to stop the carnage. Yes, this movie is INSANE.
After the break we take a metric ton of listener correspondence to celebrate 400 episodes, but not before Harlo discusses IT (2017) and Thor Ragnarok (2017), Chuck feels Netflix’s Stranger Things 2 isn’t as good as the first season, and BJ discovers just how much he loves Little Shop of Horrors (1986).
