November 12th, 2018  |  40 mins 27 secs

0079: Sunshine

November 6th, 2018  |  55 mins 7 secs

This week Chris hosts as we take a look at Danny Boyle's Sunshine, the first of a loose (and late) horror trilogy of shows. Disagreement is rife about whether this is a good film, half a good film, or just rubbish all the way through....

0078: Escape From New York

October 30th, 2018  |  41 mins 56 secs

October 23rd, 2018  |  48 mins 17 secs

0076: Trailer Hell Part 2: The Past

October 19th, 2018  |  19 mins 1 sec

For part 2 of our bad film special Sam shows Alex some terrible trailers from the past. Rogue cops, evil frogs, dinosaurs in warehouses and purple monsters, our minds are repeatedly blown before we decide which of these terrible films will be getting the full on SFRS treatment in a future episode.

0075: Trailer Hell Part 1: The Future

October 16th, 2018  |  23 mins 20 secs

Chris is away filming his Alien short film so Sam and Alex take the opportunity to indulge their taste for terrible films.  In two special episodes we watch a selection of upcoming and old awful looking films, ranking the lot before choosing one to get the proper full show treatment.

0074: Mad Max

October 2nd, 2018  |  41 mins 19 secs

This week the gang watch George Miller's Mad Max, a little Australian indie flick that made a lot of money that introduced the world to Mel Gibson, so has a knock against it from the start.  Join us as we watch an uneven film that a lot of...

0073: The Abyss

September 25th, 2018  |  56 mins 14 secs

James Cameron really loves the water, so he made a very expensive film that was very difficult to film so he could become a fish for a few months.  The result is The Abyss, a clunky blockbuster that has a lot more issues than its watery setting.

0072: Predators

September 17th, 2018  |  52 mins 35 secs

Remember how great Predator was last week? What a well thought out, tightly scripted and tense action film it was? And remember Predator 2? How it took that formula and transplanted it to a city, adding police procedural stuff and weirdo cults to create some fresh and exciting?

Well forget all that because this week we watch Predators, where gruff librarian Adrien Brody leads a group of dull Z-listers around a fake jungle in a vain attempt to locate the magic that made the original film so good.

0069:1984

August 20th, 2018  |  1 hr 2 mins

IT'S OUR 100TH FILM! And what better film to celebrate than the monochrome miserabilism of Michael Radford's 1984, yay! 

0068: Dreamscape

August 13th, 2018  |  52 mins 14 secs

This week we enter the world of dreams where Dennis Quaid is doing some questionable things to other people. Its the ’80s classic no one remembers, listen to find out a million ways this film could have been better, our exciting plans for a new Quantum Leap and how foxes plague Chris’ dreams.

August 5th, 2018  |  55 mins 17 secs
