Hack The Movies

I found another lost episode featuring Pedro! This is our missing Meteor Man review from all the way back in 2022! Meteor Man tried to do a lot and featured a bunch of talented Black actors and musicians. For whatever reason it didn't stick the landing back in the day but looking back it was actually ahead of its time. Watch and find out why!https://youtu.be/q4-s_Z7hN-Uhttps://rumble.com/v7eb8h4-the-meteor-man-was-ahead-of-its-time-hack-the-movies.html

Adam from  @AdamDoesMovies  joins me to talk about the late Chuck Russell's Eraser starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. It is sometimes a dark tense thriller full of mystery and betrayal and sometimes it's a wacky action movie with xray guns that shoot CGI rods. It is also considered the end of the Arnold's golden era and his last good movie in the '90s.https://youtube.com/live/5H1-RGm5iwchttps://rumble.com/v7e3goc-eraser-was-the-end-of-the-arnold-era-hack-the-movies.html

Doug from GoodTimesGreatMovies returns to the show for BOYS MONTH and to also talk about Commando! It has guns, explosions, and constant quips.

Spider-Man is about to have a brand new day so it only felt right to go back and revisit his darkest hour. Gil returns to help me review the disastrous follow up to The Amazing Spider-Man.

Monica and Dan return to the show to help me RETURN TO SILENT HILL! The original director of the first film returns to make a movie based on the best game of the series.

Johanna and Ian S. stop by the store to review Seed of Chucky (2004) - the wildest, weirdest, and most divisive movie in the Child's Play franchise!

Dragonheart (1996) was one of the first films to feature a fully CGI character acting alongside real humans. Voiced by Sean Connery and brought to life by ILM, Draco was a groundbreaking creation. Yet despite this technical achievement and four sequels, the movie is rarely discussed today. Angela joins me to explore what stopped Dragonheart from becoming a true classic 30 years later.https://youtu.be/lubpME_YxbUhttps://rumble.com/v7adw5m-does-anyone-remember-dragonheart-hack-the-movies-479.html

The time has come! Highlander is being remade and it seemed only right that we finally dive into the Highlander movies! I love this original film and have seen it countless times. Tom never watched it before we did this episode. Will we share the same opinion? Should there be only one Highlander movie? Let's find out!https://youtu.be/iwwcqAE4U0khttps://rumble.com/v7a5yr4-there-can-be-only-one-highlander-movie-hack-the-movies.html

Mortal Kombat II is finally here! I got Joey C and Gil in studio to talk about this highly anticipated sequel to a movie that wasn't very good. This time we have Johnny Cage, the tournament, and less Cole Young. Does that make the movie KOOL or KRAP? Watch and find out!https://youtu.be/T4_jgrnizqE?si=K3CXUjU5O3CMXuq4https://rumble.com/v79wucw-mortal-kombat-ii-kool-or-krap-hack-the-movies.html

Mortal Kombat II is dominating the box office and video game films and shows are probably more well received than they ever have been.

It's going to be a busy year for The Punisher. He has a special coming out this month and will show up in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. I had Gil stop by to talk about his FIRST on screen appearance. The Punisher starring Dolph Lundgren came out in 1989 and flew under most people's radars. Is it a cult classic? Is it terrible? Where is the skull logo? Find out in this video.https://youtu.be/_3HqIT04QPYhttps://rumble.com/v79ewxa-the-forgotten-1989-punisher-movie-dolph-lundgrens-brutal-cult-classic-hack-.html

There is a new Michael Jackson biopic coming out. I thought this was a good reason to revisit his film Moonwalker! It tells the story of his life and includes real personal music videos about how he felt about fame. Then he turns into a robot and fights Joe Pesci for some reason. Enjoy!https://youtu.be/pJlB5i1UVdo https://rumble.com/v78t6oe-michael-jacksons-moonwalker-pure-musical-madness-hack-the-movies.html?e9s=src_v1_upp_f

There is a new Lanterns show coming out and another Green Lantern showed up in the latest Superman movie. It seems like the Green Lantern is coming back in a big way. In the '00s the Green Lantern comics were some of the best things DC was putting out. It only made sense they would give him is own movie. It is considered to be one of the worst and most mocked superhero films of all time. Frank joins me again to review this film which may or may not have gotten worse with time!https://youtu.be/wQRA_VyOUf0https://rumble.com/v78gt0o-has-green-lantern-2011-gotten-worse-over-time-hack-the-movies.html

Did you know Wes Craven directed a wild DC Comics movie back in 1982? And did you know the same producers behind this swampy cult classic were also deeply involved in making Tim Burton's Batman '89 possible?

The first Peter Medak movie I reviewed before Species II was The Changeling. Here is the Movie Dumpster episode I did where we all talked about this classic ghost story. https://youtu.be/W3p050y3LCk?si=cN3Eao1FRZDcFRKr

The first Species movie was our 400th episode. I thought it was time to team up with Lauren again to talk about Species II. The movie brought back some of the characters, had even crazier effects, and tells the story from a man's point of view. It is even directed by Peter Medak who did the Changeling which is one of my favorite ghost movies. What could go wrong? Turns out mostly everything!https://youtu.be/B5Pqnc3MTJchttps://rumble.com/v77upa2-is-species-ii-sexier-than-the-first-hack-the-movies.html
