Get your Hot White Privilege: Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
The debate is on: Is Ferris a cool, charismatic guy with a 'living in the moment' philosophy that we all can learn from or is he a narcissistic bitch boy sickeningly stuffed with so much privilege that he sees manipulation as a way of 'helping' poor Cameron have a good time? It's hard to dismiss…

Get Your Hot White Privilege: Sixteen Candles (1984)
Sixteen reasons that Sixteen Candles (1984) really is the worst of the worst. Sexist. Racist. Rapist. Pinkerbell. Xenophobic. Inappropriate touching. Teenage girl experience through the Male Gaze. Shitty, forgetful parents. Anger Ball grandfathers. Violent grandmothers. Privileged kids. Stupid,...
-
All That Glitters: Legend (1985?)
Cruise in a cocktail dress, Curry in 7-inch platforms and Tangerine Dream. Yup, we're reheating the fantasy feast that is Legend. Some parts are as yummy as every delectable word that comes out of Curry's black-lipped mouth, but ultimately we got a bit sick of Lily as well as the many different...
-
All That Glitters: Labyrinth (1986)
Dark, dangerous and super-creepy...yup, we're talking about Jim Henson's 1986's children cult-classic Labyrinth. Sarah is a spoiled brat, lost in a fantasy world, who wishes away her poor little baby brother Toby. Jareth, a goblin king with a penchant for super-tight trousers and teased hair,...

-
It's Halloween, Witches: The Worst Witch (1986)
We're kicking off Halloween week with The Worst Witch, which just happens to be Sacha's favorite. Super low-fi effects, a ridiculous soundtrack, kittens and Tim Curry - what could go wrong?
-
When Tom Hanks was Funny: Splash (1984)
Behold the mermaid! A male sex fantasy in romantic comedy's clothing, Splash is a straight-up head-scratcher at times, but Darryl Hannah brings it as Ron Howard's version of Ariel, John Candy is perfectly effortless as a lovable letch, Eugene Levy is cracks us up with his neurotic paranoia and…
more -
When Tom Hanks was Funny...The Money Pit (1986)
Money Pit is a romp of slapstick and seal laughs with the best narcissistic Russian composer that has ever graced the silver-scene - but can Shelley play the Long game to get this movie into the Comedy Hall of Fame? And while T. Hanks kills it with his bobble-head comedy chops, is it enough to…
more -
Bizarre Love Triangles: Some Kind of Wonderful
The most gorgeous teenage mechanic falls for Marty McFly’s mama, dumb to the fact that his tomboy besties carrying a torch for him. What a gwat… Special guest George Sukara
-
Bizarre Love Triangles: Pretty in Pink
It doesn’t get more 80s fantastic than Pretty in Pink. Molly Ringwald is a total badass, telling it how it is and so stylish, though we really need to talk about that dress...Joined by special guest Kate Comer
-
The Lovers, The Dreamers & Jim: The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984)
The muppets are together again and there are more dreams, more star cameos, more sentimental songs, more one-liners, more bears and chickens and things, more sex - wait one minute... It's true - Kermit gives Jenny the huggies, construction workers whistle at Piggy, Gonzo gives Camilla…
more -
The Lovers, The Dreamers & Jim: The Muppet Movie (1979)
It's Sacha's Birthday month and we are joyfully celebrating with The Muppets. See Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo & Rowlf on their quest to Hollywood to "make millions of people happy." It'll warm your heart, make you cry and dream bigger. It's the most sensational movie we've reheated yet...
-
Brats Will Be Brats: St. Elmo’s Fire (1985)
A bunch of insufferable white privileged hacks graduate from a fancy East Coast school and become a stalker, a potential rapist, a serial cheater, a drugged out party girl, a white saviour, a chick who doesn’t take her pearls off while doing it and the nihilist that loves her. Poof!
-
Brats Will Be Brats: The Breakfast Club (1985)
Delicious and disgusting at the same time, The Breakfast Club leaves us with so many mixed feelings. Does the constant sexual harassment of Claire leave a bad taste in our mouth? Yes. But do we still get excited as soon as we hear, “Hey, hey, hey, hey”? Absolutely
-
Eating After Midnight Special: Vibes & The Battle of the Pop Princesses
Do you feel like a virgin or are you just a girl who wants to have fun? Why can't you be both? But more importantly...do you feel Vibes? Because its good...it's really, really good. Special guest Christiaan Van Breman joins us once again for a Midnight Special that will fill your heart (All The…

The Many Faces of Madonna: Desperately Seeking Susan (1985)

-
The Many Face of Madonna: Who’s That Girl
Sacha comes hot, taking a lot of issue with this 1980 screwballer. Aimee is still laughing but agrees that if Madonna was just Madonna, it would have been sooo much better. Gatos ex machina!
-
Not Made in China: Big Trouble in Little China
The greatest sidekick in the world, Jack Burton, helps his friend Wang rescue the green-eyed girl from the evil incorporeal Lo Pan. Sacha and Aimee are joined by special guest George Sukara for this absolutely scrumptious reheat of this John Carpenter classic.
-
Eating After Midnight Special: The Trauma of Coming to America 2
Sacha and Aimee rant for approx. 20 minutes about the needless shit show that is Coming to America 2. Listen to this. Don’t watch that.
-
Not Made in China: The Golden Child (1986)
From the fact that it can’t-settle-on-a-genre to its leave-the-camera rolling comedy, this Eddie Murphy vehicle stings a little on the way down. While there are bites of Cinnabon throughout, this takeout might need to go into the trash...it smell funky.
-
Crushed Out On Cusack: Say Anything (1989)
Special Guest Alix Martin joins us on this reheat of Cameron Crowe’s seminal classic in which an idealistic underachiever falls in love with a brain “trapped in the body of a game show hostess”, gets his heartbroken - and then gets a pen! Is he a stalker or is he sweet? Do we care? It’s John…
more -

The wonderfully weird world of Pee-wee, the most inclusive, imaginative and incredible Christmas special ever, for reals... Join Cherry and Globey and Floory as well as Grace Jones, KD Lang and Charo!!! One of the best things about growing up in the 80s...seriously.
-
Aimee & Sacha reheat Trading Places (1983)
Merry Christmas! Funny as hell or is it just too close to the bone? Trading Places tells the truth but is it through a series of ‘Birth of the Nation-esque’ slapstick? Are white people really that creepy? And is there anything funnier than Dan Ackroyd in a filthy Santa suit? Join us for the romp,...
-
Aimee & Sacha reheat Planes , Trains & Automobiles
This Thanksgiving were serving up a huge slab of white privileged with a side of entitlement. We’ve also got anxiety-on-the-cob and homophobic pie. Yeah! It’s a classic 80s comedy! Or is it....?
-
Aimee and Sacha reheat Coming to America (1988)
Is it a perfect comedy? A progressive feminist film? A sentimental rom-com? A celebration of all things black and beautiful? It’s Coming to America folks and we believe it’s all these things and more...Let your soul glo...
-
Aimee & Sacha reheat Fright Night (1985)
Welcome to the campiest, creepiest freakiest flick of the 80s with long lady fingers, iconic overacting, lots o’ lots of vampire teeth, and a few too many minutes for Sacha’s liking. Happy Halloween!
-
Aimee & Sacha reheat the Lost Boys (1987)

-
Aimee & Sacha rewatch The Goonies (1985)
Hey you guys! Watch the Goonies = happiest childhood memory. Looking for treasure, fishing for crabs with your teeth, the problematic truffle shuffle and grape ice cream. I love Martha Plimpton, Mama Fratelli’s black hosiery and ugh Andy. Water slides, rock-a-bye baby, oh this movie is too much....
-
Aimee & Sacha rewatch Stand By Me (1986)
Why were we obsessed with the 50s in the 80s? Is Goofy a dog or a man? And do you wanna see a dead body? The best movie ever about friendship, growing up, adult bullies, raw meat in the sun and leeches. Don’t forget to bring a comb!
-
Aimee & Sacha Watch The Princess Bride (1987)
‘Death cannot stop true love...only delay it for awhile.’ And the same can be said for this episode! Just like Inigo Montoya, we didn’t give up. Hope it is worth the wait, friends.
-
Eating After Midnight Special: River Phoenix
Our first Eating After Midnight Special celebrates the actor, the artist, the activist, the spirit of River Phoenix on what would have been His 50th birthday.
-
Aimee and Sacha rewatch The Neverending Story (1984)
Ignite your imagination and break your heart with a sledgehammer. Bastian reads a book, Atreyu goes on a quest, Artex succumbs to the sadness and Falkor blinks with one weird eye.......Mooooooonchiiiild.
-
Aimee & Sacha watch Joysticks
Manhood, boobs, feathered hair and the Pacman swipe...Possibly one of the most offensive, bad taste movies ever made.
-
Aimee & Sacha rewatch Flashdance
Oh what a feeling of being hit with the broken dream hammer, Grunt, Daphne Duck, and that is not Jennifer Beals
-
Aimee & Sacha watch Footloose
White thriller, how to save your dog during a zombie apocalypse and f*cking Ariel
