  • EP#131: Congo (1995)
    Apr 29 2024

    Charlie & George travel to the dangerous jungles of Central Africa to tackle cult 90s blockbuster oddity, Congo!

    It has all the ingredients for a blockbuster: based on a Michael Crichton novel, from the makers of Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park, creature effects by the late Stan Winston, and a diverse cast including a scenery (and sesame cake) devouring Tim Curry - but is it successful? Tune in to find out! Retro Ramble 2024

  • EP#129: The Terminator (1984)
    Mar 30 2024
    Charlie and George travel back in time "about 40 years" to finally get around reviewing 1980s classic, The Terminator! A huge film for the brothers and many others, it's a deep dive into the low budget thriller that started a franchise, that likes it protagonist, cannot be stopped! One of the most important films of the decade, it made Arnold Schwarzenegger a bonafide star and introduced the world to James Cameron, the most successful director of all time!

  • EP128 - Drop Zone vs Terminal Velocity
    Feb 26 2024
    1994 gave us not one, but two skydiving action thrillers, so Charlie and George thought it was only fair to revisit, review and compare both Drop Zone and Terminal Velocity. It's Wesley Snipes vs Charlie Sheen. It's Gary B (that's Busey) vs the KG - Used to Be. There can only be one victor, but who are the boys backing? The results may surprise you!
