This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade finally sneaks in A Pyromaniac's Love Story (1995), a forgotten 90s oddity with a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes that also happens to be one of his all-time favorite films. Set in a fairy-tale version of the present day, the film follows a smitten baker's apprentice (John Leguizamo), an eccentric pyromaniac (William Baldwin, surprisingly unhinged), and a tangled web of confessions, unrequited love, and misplaced gestures. It's a weird, warm, quietly funny movi...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron shake up Cocktail (1988), the Tom Cruise 80s movie that critics savaged with a 9% on Rotten Tomatoes despite making $170 million at the box office. The romance never quite convinces, the tonal swings are abrupt, and yes, the novel it's based on is probably better. But it may also be the best worst movie they've watched yet. Send a text
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Gigli (2003), the infamous rom-com crime experiment that brought together peak-fame Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. Directed by Martin Brest (Midnight Run, Scent of a Woman), the film tries to blend gangster hijinks, edgy romance, and broad comedy, only to collapse under abrupt tonal shifts, baffling character choices, and moments that have aged into outright discomfort.

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron revisit Bewitched (2005), the big-screen adaptation of the beloved 1960s sitcom. Starring Nicole Kidman and peak-era Will Ferrell, the film opts for a meta “show-within-a-show” premise that never fully commits to being a rom-com, a satire of Hollywood, or a straightforward comedy. Directed by Nora Ephron and packed with an overqualified supporting cast, Bewitched isn’t aggressively bad—it’s just strangely flat, hesitant, and uninterested in ...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle The Avengers (1998) — the non-Marvel, deeply forgotten adaptation of the stylish 1960s British TV series. Starring Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman, and Sean Connery, this $60-million misfire earned a brutal 5% on Rotten Tomatoes. What should have been a sleek, sexy spy thriller instead arrives chopped to pieces, with entire chunks of story seemingly removed and replaced by confusion, teddy bear costumes, and weather-controlling nonsense. S...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron crack open The Mod Squad (1999) — the edgy-for-the-90s TV reboot that tried to turn counterculture cool into a leather-jacketed music video. With Claire Danes, Omar Epps, and Giovanni Ribisi cast as rebellious undercover cops, it’s a film that mistakes vibes for plot and attitude for character development. Grab your club soda with lime and join us — because if The Mod Squad taught us anything, it’s that no amount of wardrobe can fix a plot y...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron saddle up for Wild Wild West — the $170-million steampunk western that tried to mash together TV nostalgia, Will Smith swagger, and a giant mechanical spider. Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld at the peak of Will Smith’s 90s superstardom, the film reimagines the classic TV series as a gadget-stuffed action comedy where Jim West and Artemis Gordon race to stop a disgruntled Confederate villain from literally selling off the United States. Along th...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron hit pause on watching movies and open the mailbag for a year-end Q&A. They touch on how the podcast got started, reflect on their favorite disasters so far, and give a sneak peek at what’s coming next. Because if this Q&A taught us anything, it’s that watching terrible movies is easy—explaining why you keep doing it is the hard part. Send a text
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron ring in the new year with New Year’s Eve (2011) — the bloated, celebrity-packed rom-com that treats Times Square like a narrative dumping ground. Directed by Gary Marshall and stuffed with more recognizable faces than an Oscars montage, the film juggles dozens of half-baked story lines involving dying wishes, stalled elevators, maternity ward competitions, and a fragile New Year’s Eve ball. So grab your champagne, set your expectations low, ...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron sprint, tackle, and elbow their way through Jingle All the Way (1996) — the holiday madhouse where Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a mattress salesman with the physique of a Greek god, Sinbad turns it up to 11 as an unhinged postal worker, and Phil Hartman seduces a neighborhood of moms with fresh-baked cookies. So grab your non-alcoholic eggnog, take a dose of 90’s nostalgia, and join the guys as they unpack bomb scares, mall-Santa cartels, and...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron unwrap Deck the Halls (2006) — the holiday comedy that tries to bottle Christmas spirit and instead dumps out seasonal misery. Matthew Broderick plays a joyless optometrist who’s obsessed with Christmas, while Danny DeVito shows up as a restless salesman who decides that turning his house into a space-visible light beacon is the key to existential fulfillment. So grab your hot cocoa, and join the guys as they break down mustachioed stu...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron kick off Horrible Holidays with Jack and Jill (2011) — the Sandler-verse twin comedy that tries to coast on wigs, pratfalls, and CGI jump roping. With Adam Sandler playing both an ad executive and his chaotic sister, Al Pacino delivering a fully unhinged performance fueled by real-life financial desperation, and Katie Holmes standing politely off to the side like she wandered onto the wrong sound stage, it’s a film so sloppy it somehow swept...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron dive into Obsessed (2009) — the glossy, PG-13 thriller that tried to channel Fatal Attraction but forgot to include the actual attraction. With Idris Elba playing the squeakiest-clean husband in movie history, Beyoncé maintaining moral perfection at every turn, and Ali Larter going full Lifetime-villain with zero explanation, it’s a film so neutered by studio notes it may as well have come with an abstinence pledge. Grab your tequila, don’t ...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron slide into the sun-bleached, Florida-fried madness of Striptease (1996) — the political-strip-club crime caper that paid Demi Moore a record-breaking salary to anchor a movie that can’t decide if it’s political satire or a sexy crime thriller. Featuring Burt Reynolds caked in Vaseline, and Ving Rhames wielding a cordless drill, it’s a film that turns Hiaasen’s dark comedy into pure, neon-tinted chaos. Grab your lint trap, queue up some Annie...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron dive into the glitzy, sleazy chaos of Showgirls (1995) — the infamous NC-17 trainwreck that tried to mix Vegas glamour with social satire. Directed by Paul Verhoeven and starring Elizabeth Berkley fresh off Saved by the Bell, it’s a film so ambitious, so uncomfortably earnest, it turned neon and nudity into high camp legend. Grab your fries, throw them dramatically into the air, and join Ade and Aaron as they wade their way through bizarre r...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron kick off “Naughty November” with Fifty Shades of Grey (2015) — the Twilight fanfic-turned-global-phenomenon that had everyone clutching their pearls. Dakota Johnson stars as Anastasia Steele, a shy literature student who trips into the life of Christian Grey, a billionaire control freak with a hardware-store loyalty card and a passion for legal documents. The guys unpack the awkward dialogue, endless red flags, and the “playroom” that appare...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron wrap up their “Horrible Horror” month with one of the most infamous bad movies ever made: Troll 2 (1990). This so-called sequel has no trolls, no connection to Troll 1, and no idea what it’s doing—and that’s exactly why it’s perfect. The guys dive into the world of Nilbog (“Goblin” spelled backwards), where a vegetarian cult turns humans into plant goo for dinner. They discuss the kid who pees on dinner to save his family, the dad who bellow...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron take a wild ride through Maximum Overdrive (1986), the only film ever written and directed by Stephen King — and for good reason. Fueled by cocaine, ACDC, and zero directing experience, it’s the story of killer trucks, homicidal vending machines, and a group of survivors holed up in a North Carolina truck stop wondering how this movie got made. From a drawbridge that eats cars to soda cans that kill Little Leaguers, the guys break down every...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron get lost on Summer’s Isle with The Wicker Man (2006), Nicolas Cage’s legendary descent into bee-filled chaos. Part horror remake, part unintentional comedy, it’s a movie that wants to say something about faith, feminism, and honey production—and somehow fails at all three. From a rocking California Highway Patrol outfit to Cage screaming “Not the bees!”, the guys break down every bizarre creative choice. They debate why the island’s women ta...
This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron kick off their “Horrible Horror” series with Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey (2023). Pooh Bear and Piglet trade in honey pots for meat cleavers after Christopher Robin heads off to college, and the result is somehow even worse than you’re imagining. Shot in just ten days for under $100,000, this slasher manages to turn one of childhood’s most beloved franchises into a rubber-mask gore fest. The guys break down everything from Pooh crying ho...
