With the "Running Man" remake coming out soon, Jerome and Brian decided it was fitting to review one of their favorite comedy horror films of all time, "Shaun of the Dead" (2004). When the movie first came out, no one was familiar with Edgar Wright unless you watched the BBC channel. Because of the success of this film, he was able to complete his "Cornetto Trilogy" after this. This film is hilarious, well written and even emotional at the end.

Jerome and Brian's "horror-o-thon" continues with quite possibly one of the best remakes of all time. And no, they already reviewed "The Thing (1982)". It's the "The Blob" from 1988. It caught both hosts by surprise and they kind of wish they discovered this when they we're younger. It's a B-Movie, but it's treated with much seriousness and effort to create a new twist on the original Blob story. It's gory, turns tropes on their ears and even has a child kill. It's awesome.

This week Jerome and Brian take a look at two Hammer Horror films. One is another classic pairing/face-off between Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing in the The Mummy (1959). The writing and editing is not that good, but the colors and performances are worth watching for. The second film is another remake of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde (1971). The twist this time is that that the obsessive doctor can now change into a woman. It's ripe for an A24 remake with hip, young actors to modernize it. The film is good in it's own right.

It's Halloween season and Brian is in charge of the festivities. To start off, Brian and Jerome will journey back to 2003 when maybe even then this film came out too late. It's Freddy vs. Jason (2003) and coincidently AMC Channel just had a whole weekend dedicated to both iconic franchises. It's a mixed bag, but boy once the horror legends start fighting, the film gets fun. Brian paired it with Stan Hansen vs. Big Van Vader from NJPW Super Fight 1990. It's the infamous match where Vader got his eye popped out. It's brutal. It's gruesome. Now you can see why Brian paired the two together.

Jerome and Brian are back on their superhero movie bullshit. They take a look at the four superhero movies released this year (Captain America: Brave New World, Thunderbolts*, Superman and Fantastic Four First Steps) and provide their thoughts. Brian questions whether online grifters know what their talking about when it comes to box office expectations. Jerome really dislikes Brave New World but feels Superman is the best Superman since the original. Lots of thoughts. Different perspectives.

"Sergio September" concludes with an all time classic film, "Once Upon a Time in The West" from 1968. Featuring iconic performances from Charles Bronson, Henry Fonda, Jason Robards and the now recently deceased Claudia Cardinale, this film is a triumph of film making. The direction and cinematography is incredible. The visual storytelling is on point as well as the massive landscapes and costume design. Brian and Jerome recorded this two days before the passing of Hollywood legend Claudia Cardinale (strange timing, we know). But they have nothing but love and praise for of the all time great films.

"Sergio September" continues with the finale of the "Man With No Name Trilogy" or the "Dollars Trilogy" to others, with "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" from 1966. It's a powerhouse of a film with incredible direction, cinematography and music. It was not as well received when it initially came out in 1966, but overtime has become a generational classic with iconic imagery and music. It's now regarded as a masterpiece and one of the greatest films ever made.

Jerome and Brian continue "Sergio September" with the second film in the "Dollars Trilogy" with a "For a Few Dollars More" from 1965. Often overlooked because of its placement in the series, this film is still regarded as one of the top Westerns of all time. It's actually one of Brian's favorite films of all time as he picks this as the best of the trilogy. The music, cinematography, acting, costumes and sets are tremendous. You can tell with this film that Sergio Leone really found his stride as director.

"Sergio September" is underway as Brian and Jerome are set to watch four of Sergio Leone's classic Westerns. They start with a "Fistful of Dollars" and because of the awesome coincidence of AEW using the main theme from the film as part of Hangman Page's entrance for All In Texas, they just had to pair it with the film. Both love Clint Eastwood and Westerns. When mixed with a 5 * match, it's like pairing peanut butter and jelly.

Jerome and Brian end "August with Altman" with his final film, A Prairie Home Companion (2006). It has an all-star cast with very little plot. Sounds like Robert Altman. Both agree the music is great and the casting and acting is very good. But both also agree that this film was Robert Altman accepting his mortality and facing his immanent death months later in 2006. It's a perfect way to close out the month.

Jerome and Brian continue "August With Altman" with a film that got nominated for multiple Academy Awards, including Best Picture. It's the prequel/precursor of Downton Abbey with writer Julian Fellows and his collaboration with Robert Altman in this 'who dunnit' murder mystery. The cast is star studded from Michael Gambon to Helen Mirren to Clive Owen to Maggie Smith, etc., etc. Brian is fascinated by the film while Jerome was hoping for more of the dark humor that Altman usually brings to the table.

August with Altman continues with a request from co-host Brian who has lived in Los Angeles his whole life and only heard about how classic L.A. "The Long Goodbye" is. After finally watching it, Brian is in love with the film now. Jerome is just as impressed with the stylish noir work but the script is not the greatest. But Sterling Hayden steals the show.

It's August...With Altman. Jerome and Brian are on their Robert Altman bullshit again and have dedicated another month to the famed auteur director. This time they take a look at one of his earlier works which many consider an all-time classic "M.A.S.H." from 1970. It's a dark comedy with multiple characters talking over one another. The hosts are used to that. They also paired up the all-star cast with an all-star six man tag from the WWF days as Randy Savage, Adrian Adonis and Harley Race takes on Ricky Steamboat, Junkyard Dog and Roddy Piper from February 1987. It's an elimination match that would set the table for Survivor Series, later to come that same year.

Originally scheduled as a review episode of the newly released "Happy Gilmore 2", with the sudden passing of legend Hulk Hogan, Jerome and Brian called an audible. Seeing similarities between the return of Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore character and Hulk Hogan's return to the WWE in 2002, they decided it was only fitting to pair up the match with the movie. Both give their thoughts and feelings about Hogan and where might his legacy lie now that he is resting in peace....brother.

Adam Sandler month continues with a very unpopular film that somehow Brian seems to love...Pixels (2015). It's a mashup of Independence Day, Wreck it Ralph and the typical Adam Sandler picture. Most actively dislike this movie but Brian tries to defend the craziness that's in this film. Is it stupid? Yes. Is it poorly written? Maybe. All we know is that "JFK shot first."

Brian and Jerome continue Adam Sandler month with a film that is widely regarded as not just one of the best Adam Sandler movies, but one of the best romantic comedies of all time. The Wedding Singer (1998) was popular hit when first released and has gradually gained an even bigger following through home video, streaming and tons of TV airings. This is Jerome's first time viewing the film, and boy was he impressed.

Jerome and Brian decided July was the perfect time to honor the career of Adam Sandler leading into the big streaming event of the summer...Happy Gilmore 2. We can't get there unless we re-visit Happy Gilmore (1996) first. It's become a comedy/sports classic that has built such a following that a sequel is coming 29 years later. It's paired up with the Broad Street Bully match between the Nasty Boys vs. Cactus Jack and Kevin Sullivan during Slamboree 1994. It's a top level brawl that was ahead of its time, similar to the brawls Happy gets into.

Jerome wraps up his month long 40th Birthday celebration of movies from 1985 (the year of his birth). His choice of Out of Africa seems a little odd, but all things considering it won the Best Picture Oscar as well as Best Director. Brian and Jerome seem to be on the same page as they think the film is overrated and did not deserve the Oscars it did win. They love the technical aspects of the film, but everything else was very...meh.

Jerome's 40th birthday bash continues, this time with one of the few Westerns to be released in the 1980's. Clint Eastwood takes the helm of one of his final Westerns in 1985's "Pale Rider". The script has issues but the overall direction and acting is fantastic. Is he a ghost? Who knows?
