Road House, 1989
@yffmpodcast
The 1989 movie, Road House. "Dalton's the best bouncer in the business. His nights are filled with fast action, hot music and beautiful women. It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it"
Tonight is BYOK night (bring your own knife) to this Rowdy* 2 hour bar fight, with Patrick Swayze, Kelly Lynch, Sam Elliot, Ben Gazzara, and Kieth David. The most poppin' bar in all of 3rd World Missouri, Double Deuce, has it all! Come for the fight scenes, stay for the tits.. this move has plenty of both. But don't go thinking this is all some superficial soft-core-porno/hill-billy-kung-fu movie.. because the main character has a philosophy degree from NYU! That's right, Patrick Swayze is sexy both inside and out, and if you don't like this movie, he'll personally rip your throat out.
Directed by Rowdy Herrington. Written by David Lee Henry & Hilary Henkin.

For this year's holiday episode, we encourage you to kick back, relax, take off your shoes and curl your toes into fists on the carpet as you watch this stress-packed, explosive action (or should we say Christmas) movie classic. This week the crew breaks down how Bruce Willis made the gravity defying leap, without the assistance of a fire hose we might add, from television to the silver screen, what exactly does Yipee-Ki-yay mean, mother fucker? and how much of the budget went to hearing aids for the cast and crew after suffering permanent hearing loss from "shooting" this movie? All we can say is, if this is their idea of Christmas, we gotta be here for New Years!Directed by John McTiernan.

"Get ready for rush hour."Enjoy your morning commute on various forms of LA public transit with Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, Dennis Hopper, Jeff Daniels, and Joe Morton. This movie is The wild ride of 1994, starting hot out of the gate with the action that never falls below 50 MPH.. guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your bus seat. In this episode the gang discusses how Speed relates to the LA experience, just how real was that blazing hot chemistry between Sandra and Keanu, and how does a 15 ton bus clear a 50 foot gap in the freeway? Pop quiz, hot shot... try not to get dead.Directed by Jan de Bont.

Join the YFFM gang as we break down the crazy stunts in this movie and just how many injuries they were responsible. Put your bets down now for how many vertebras Jackie Chan broke during this movie. This movie also had subtitles, so don't bother watching if you can't read good.Directed by Jackie Chan.

Under Siege, 1992
01:40:33||Ep. 14@YFFMPodcastThe 1992 movie, Under Siege. "In 1992 a battleship's been sabotaged by nuclear pirates out to steal its warheads. Now, surrounded by terrorists, a lone man stands with a deadly plan of attack."Take those pies out of the oven and save Honolulu from nuclear annihilation with Steven Seagal, Tommy Lee Jones, Gary Busey, Erika Eleniak, Colm Meaney and Patrick O'Neal. This week the gang covers action hero, martial arts master, and real law enforcement agent, Steven Seagal's most successful movie. What is it that makes this action star so cool yet so cringey? Why does his accent change in every scene? and why has he only been making straight to video action movies for the last 22 years? Do you have an opinion about nuclear weapons? Any opinion at all! If so, then that makes you the target demographic for this highly "sophisticated" movie, according to Director, Andrew Davis. But enough of that babbling bullshit.. press play and enjoy!Directed by Andrew Davis. Written by J. F.

How much was Donald Pleasence's wine budget on set? and how big is Derek's crush on Michael Myers as the ultimate horror movie villain?

The gang asks the important questions like what would you do during a zombie apocalypse? how did a movie with such a small budget afford to hire a crew of so many?

So lock yourself in a safe location, bar the doors, cock your shotguns, crack a beer and enjoy.Written and Directed by George A.

It's fun to be a vampire."Jump in the family van for a trip out to Santa Carla (the murder capitol of the world) with Keifer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Jami Gertz, Dianne Wiest, and Edward Herrmann. For this spooky season episode we enter the world of vampires AKA the only sexy movie monster.. sorry Frankenstein. Speaking of vampires.. did we mention this movie is bat-shit crazy? Join the gang with special guests (who also happen to be screenwriters) Kelsey and Hannah as we break down how this originally intended children's adventure movie turned into the sexualized blood-thirsty 1980's horror icon that it is, and how do the frog brothers play into all of this? Recommended for watching with your dog.. maybe not your brother. Think of it as a survival guide..Directed by Joel Schumacher.

The Thing, 1982
01:43:06||Ep. 10@YFFMPodcastThe 1982 movie, The Thing. "Man is the warmest place to hide."Grab your favorite whiskey and spend an Antarctic winter one thousand miles from no where with Kurt Russel, Keith David, A. Wilford Brimley, Donald Moffat, and David Clennon. In this episode we kick off spooky season with the psychological terror movie of the 80's in which no one can be trusted.. not even your dog. Grab a glass of whiskey and watch some of the best "valmorphication" ever put to the screen. If there's one thing that this film's budget breakdown tells us, it's clear the real star of this movie is its practical effects.. sorry Kurt Russel. This is a great movie to put on, tie you and your friends to the couch and.. see what happens.Directed by John Carpenter.

RoboCop, 1987
01:15:18||Ep. 9@YFFMPodcastThe 1987 movie, RoboCop. "Part man. Part Machine. All cop."Keep crime off the streets of Detroit, and corruption out of 15 story boardrooms with Peter Weller, Nancy Allen, Kurtwood Smith, Ronny Cox, and Michael Ferrer. This episode we are joined by *actual human police officer* Ryan to give some fresh takes on this 80's classic. We get to ask him hot takes on the realism of this absurdist action flick, like.. is it police protocol to dual wield pistols out the window of a police car while you're chasing a suspect? How close are police units to having co-ed locker rooms? and how many windows is appropriate for throwing a non-compliant suspect through? All in the YFFM crew is in agreement about this "So good, it's good" satirical Reagan-era reaction to corporate greed and automation, that also just plain kicks ass. Now who wouldn't buy that for a dollar?!Directed by Paul Verhoeven.
