Last summer, something monumental happened. One of Uncuffed's founding producers, Greg Eskridge, came home after more than 30 years in prison. In this episode we’ll bring you back to that emotional day last summer when he walked out of the San Quentin gates, free at last.

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبIt's another case of two movies with extremely similar plots being made right on each others heels in the 1999, but in completely different ways. Marvel at Bruce Willis' weird hairpiece, at how damaged the young Haley Joel Osment appears, watch Kevin Bacon dig a big goddamn hole in his yard while his creepy kid is played by an actor nobody remembers as you yell at the TV, it's "Paint It Black! How does a guitarist not recognize Paint It Black!!"…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبA remake/reboot of the somewhat bizarre, Queen-scored, yet wonderfully endearing 1980s fantasy flick Highlander is apparenly on its way, for real this time. The original really shouldn't have work, NONE of the sequels worked, and the TV show spinoff had a rabid, but small fanbase. But Henry Cavill is — most likely — starring in a remake of the OG film and stepping into Christopher Lambert's sneakers and trench coat as Connor McCloud. But what do we, the fans who have been there since the beginning, want from a remake, if anything at all?…
Look, it was a really good run — 27 movies over seven decades is nothing to sneer at. But as producers of the James Bond films quest once again to find a new actor to step into the 007 tux, one must ask the question: In the 2020s, do we really need a new Bond? Must the epic series continue, or should Bond be allowed to retire into the desert forever? Well, we all know that as long as someone can make some money off yet another Bond and another Bond movie, they will. But we'll still complain about it.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبAh the cinematic experience that was Wolf Man (2025) — we waited months and months through delay after delay for a werewolf movie that...wasn't actually a werewolf movie because it had a similar but really different monster, but it was also trying to be a cabin-in-the-woods movie, and a boring one, yet it was called Wolf Man despite being about neither a werewolf nor Lawrence Talbot. Fuck. And then there was the extraordinarily creepy, extraordinarily gross, and somewhat overwrought Nosferatu from Robert Eggers, who is making his own werewolf movies soon — which presumably is about actual werewolves. Ok...enough...listen...do it now!…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبThe movies in the 80s — horror movies, family movies, movies about talking pets, and cartoons about talking dinosaurs — they were all somehow incredibly, hauntingly dark as shit. Here are some of the movies from our childhood that left a dent, a scar, a mangled bit of psyche in their wake. Do we have any in common?…
1 Road Games (1981), Steven Seagal's Worst, Columbo on TV 58:50
58:50 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب58:50
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبIt's 1997. You pop a VHS that contains from-cable-recorded copies of Glimmer Man , Fire Down Below, and On Deadly Ground and watch them in succession until you can't take any more horrendous dialog and fake New York accents...or berets and sleeveless cardigans. You switch the input back to TV, and after the screen flickers blue for a moment, and then you're 10 minutes into a Columbo TV movie special, so you don't know who did it just like Peter Falk. Later that night, on the Million Dollar Movie, you resign to insomnia and catch Road Games, a gem from 1981 about a trucker on the barren highways of Australia engaged in a deadly game of cat and mouse — with a super young Jamie Lee Curtis playing his a hitchhiker companion. And you watch the whole, damn, thing — with weird late-night commercials. You fall asleep to Above the Law on the couch as a form of self flagellation whilst you dreaming of a short, trenchcoated detective chewing on a cheap cigar fighting Rasta gangsters and Keenan Ivory Wayans in a Road Warrior knockoff. It was a time of drastic magic.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبAt one point, a young Leonardo DiCaprio was in consideration to play Patrick Bateman in American Psycho (2000), the surprisingly excellent adaptation of a horribly difficult book to adapt with the same title by Brett Easton Ellis. The role of Bateman, of course, went to Christian Bale. Now, as news circulates that we may be getting a new adaptation of the novel about yuppie madness in 1980s New York City with Austin Butler stepping into the role, we take a look at what it might have been like if DiCaprio had been the one running through a hallway covered in blood, naked save for a pair of Nikes, wielding a chainsaw.…
1 The Color of Money - Forgotten Scorsese Rewind 55:11
55:11 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب55:11
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبMartin Scorsese has directed a lot of hits, and a few downright classics, but there are also a few semi-forgotten gems in his filmography, the best of which is The Color of Money (1986). It was a weird move for the already accomplished director: a movie about pool hustlers starring an aging Paul Newman and a up-and-coming Tom Cruise and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio that's actually a long-delayed sequel to a film Newman starred in back in 1961, The Hustler. Newman reprises his role as Fast Eddie Felson at a very different point in his life than when we last saw him squaring off in marathon games of straight pool with Jackie Gleason's Minnesota Fats. It's a bit of a slow burn with an unconventional protagonist and an ending that leaves you feeling good but a little hollow inside, too. Take a deep dive into this forgotten classic with us!…

They are dramas, romances, horror, action, and some of the most saccharine sap you'll ever come across, but they're all Christmas movies. So, what exactly makes a movie a "Christmas movie" and where do we draw the line? And, of course, we run down our all time favorite Christmas movies — and we get into a more niche category: Holiday Movies.…
1 Tango in Tokyo: Examining the Cinema of Tango & Cash and Showdown in Little Tokyo 1:50:45
1:50:45 التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احب1:50:45
التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبThey're both ridiculous buddy cop team-up movies from the 1980s and 1990s, but of very different star caliber and budget. Tango & Cash (1989) saw Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell join forces as two LAPD super cops who are framed by Jack Palance's crime boss, who has a weird thing for mice and CCTV monitors. Showdown in Little Tokyo (1991) sees post- Rocky IV Dolph Lundgren team up with Brandon Lee in one of his first film roles as two...cops who, uh, well, there's a story we're pretty sure. And it follows a lot of same beats thumped by Ray Tango and Gabriel Cash. Prepare to dive into the cinematic complexities of two of the goofiest action (comedies??) to come out of the '80s.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبAh yes, the family-friendly mildly supernatural vehicle for a young Tom Hanks just breaking his way into feature films from the TV world. We all have such fond memories of Big (1988), but have you ever really thought about the psychological damage inflincted on the characters involved? And what the hell happened to Josh after the movie was over — a kid who lived as an adult for weeks and had a number of...mature experiences before being shot back into his 10-year-old body? And his poor mom?! And Susan (Elizabeth Perkins)...how does she go on knowing what happened and that she fell in love with a grade-schooler!?! Let's get into it.…

التشغيل لاحقا التشغيل لاحقا قوائم إعجاب احبIt's difficult to overstate the sheer awesomeness of the original Predator (1987). It's just about the perfect action movie, and it's a blending of sci-fi, action, and horror that is extremely rare in all of movie history, not to mention a lightning-in-a-bottle cast that could only work in the late 1980s. So why has every single sequel (yeah, Dave's looking at you, too, Prey) sucked so bad?! We take a deep dive into Predator, as well as Predator 2, Predators, The Predator, Prey, and we gloss over the two AVP movies, as is deserved. Let's go! Stay tuned at the end for Tom's artistic reinterpretation of the score from Predator (1987).…

One is a neat little '90s thriller with Meryl Streep, the other is a strange coming of age movie with a super young pre-Hobbit, pre-Rudy Sean Astin. Take a trip into this weird little corner of movie trivia with our stunning analysis of White Water Summer (1987) and The River Wild (1994).
