Every other Friday, Doug McCambridge and Jamie Lorello discuss a film from the 1980s. Some are films we haven't seen since we were kids and offer a fresh perspective. Others are films we've never seen before but probably should have. Do they hold up? Are they classics? Or would these films just be better off having been lost to time?

Every other Friday, Doug McCambridge and Jamie Lorello discuss a film from the 1980s. Some are films we haven't seen since we were kids and offer a fresh perspective. Others are films we've never seen before but probably should have. Do they hold up? Are they classics? Or would these films just be better off having been lost to time?

    241: Tarzan in Manhattan (1989)

    On our latest episode, Jamie spends most of the time drooling over this hunk of a Tarzan, Doug wonders of Tony Curtis brought his personal wardrobe to set, and we're bot unsure if this movie was actually enjoyable or if our expectations were just rock-bottom before hitting 'play'. Try and avoid feeding chimpanzees bacon and eggs, attempt to trade cheap jewelry fro cab rides, and join us as we discuss a movie with a title that just seems like a joke in, Tarzan in Manhattan!Visit our YouTube ChannelMerch on TeePublic Follow us on TwitterFollow on InstagramFind us on FacebookVisit our Website

    Since first recording this episode the only update we have is that Jamie met Elisabeth Shue fully clothed in an airport bathroom and there were no primates in sight.In the latest episode, Doug reveals that while he still doesn't enjoy apes in film, he feels much more comfortable when they're wearing clothes, and Jamie becomes frustrated (as all should) with Link's refusal to respect personal space boundaries. A movie with many questions, relatively no answers and a baffling score.

    239: Going Bananas (1987)

    On our latest episode, Doug gets such joy when describing a muscular gymnast attempting to choke out a child dressed as a clown, Jamie attempts to blow the listeners' minds by revealing that the monkey was a man in a suit, and we both are quite confused as to what exactly Jimmy Walker is trying to do in this movie. Be on the lookout for scorpions, encourage an animal revolt at your local zoo, and join us as we discuss a movie that may have been nothing more than a shared fever dream called, Going Bananas!Visit our YouTube ChannelMerch on TeePublic Follow us on TwitterFollow on InstagramFind us on FacebookVisit our Website

    238: Monkey Shines (1988)

    We kick off 'Ape-ril' by digging back into Patreon and releasing an episode we covered for supporters only back in October 2021.On our latest episode, Jamie doesn't think this helper monkey/owner kiss was consensual, Doug gets such enjoyment over a man thrashing a monkey puppet like a dog with a chew toy, and we both agree that this poor guy just 'loved his legs'. Watch out for sudden onset monkey fangs, always unplug your hairdryer when finished with it, and join us as we discuss a movie you'll totally forget that Stanly Tucci was in, Monkey Shines!Visit our YouTube ChannelMerch on TeePublic Follow us on TwitterFollow on InstagramFind us on FacebookVisit our Website
