Wick, Lee, Vaughn, and Mike discuss an extremely unhinged Cameron Mitchell performance in a movie starring Grindbin legend, Robert Ginty. Directed by David Winters (Rage to Kill, Thrashin') Codename Vengeance is undoubtedly some sort of tax dodge scheme that nobody was actually intended to watch... yet here we are nearly 40 years later discussing it for 3 hours on a theme month dedicated to a man who didn't even know he made this movie. Happy Camvember everyone!
Camvember 2024 has arrived and the boys find themselves stranded on an island full of fishmen in some weird sex game. Tanner, Bobby, and Mike are joined by new guest Greg (Absolute Zeros: Camp Launchpad, Junior Braves of the Apocalypse) to talk about a very drunk Cameron Mitchell appearance that really isn't supposed to be in the movie.
Bobby, Yobo, and Mike find themselves trapped in an abandoned house for the annual Grindbin Halloween episode! Night of the Demons is your classic "people stuck in a house" movie where we wander around for 90 minutes and hope something fun might happen. Does it? Will Yobo be spread over an open fire?? Did anyone bring the Double D batteries?!
Greg, Chris in Miami, Bobby, and Mike discuss the lesser-known Walter Hill film, lovingly referred to on the show as "Swamp Warriors". When a group of National Guardsmen get stuck in the swamps of Louisiana, they find themselves hunted by locals who really don't like outsiders. Featuring a cast of great charactor actors: Keith Carradine, Powers Booth, Fred Ward, Peter Coyote, and Brion James, this is a movie made for the bin.
The Patreon Poll winner for "Silva September" is here... in October! Vaughn, Chuck, Bobby, and Mike discuss the Fernando Di Leo crime drama in which Henry Silva plays our leading man (only not in his own voice). Does the Boss live up to the hype? Will we get a complete org chart of the mob before the movie is over? Did we find yet another Grindbin movie sponsored by J&B Scotch?! All this... and more!
Wick, Brady, Bobby, and Mike discuss the Taiwanese re-imagining of Snow White. Only this time she is birthed from a space bean and restaurant Cyclops rule the streets.
Yobo, Molly, Bobby, and Mike FINALLY discuss the Gary Coleman "classic" about him living in a train station locker and betting on horses. Who was this made for? Why did they destroy an entire rain forest to build a train station Shakey's? And is Gary just actually a vampire? All these questions will be answered... and more!
Faustus joins Bobby and Mike to talk about the Dino De Laurentiis "spoof" of James Bond films. CIA agent Kelly is stationed in Rio de Janeiro, covertly monitoring a wealthy industrialist, David Ardonian, who harbors a secret plan to sterilize the global population and repopulate the world himself, with captured women in clear cubes.
Tanner, Fern, Bobby, and Mike find themselves locked up with Grindbin All Star Tom DeSimone (Hell Night, Chatterbox, Angel III) in his "sendup" of women in prison movies. What promises to be a fun time ends up being one of the most angry, mean-spirited films we've seen in a long time. Tom, you doing ok buddy?
Summer Sequel Month 2024 comes to the a dramatic close with the Patreon Poll winner, Smokey and the Bandit Part 3. Chuck, Bobby, and Mike discuss the movie that wouldn't die by forcing it's way into existence. Can a Bandit movie exist without the Bandit? Has Jerry Reed seen the first two films?? Did Jackie Gleeson put his mom in this movie?! IT'S ALL IN THE EPISODE!!!
Lee, Daniel, Bobby, and Mike are here to discuss the Lorenzo Lamas "classic" Snake Eater 2! Have any of us seen a Snake Eater before? Does this movie have anything to do with the first one? Do we end the episode fighting on a roof with wheelchairs?! All this... and more!
Yobo, Terry, Bobby, and Mike find themselves locked back up in the Penitentiary for one more fight (even though we said we would never fight again and it doesn't really make any sense for us to be locked up for a third time). Can Canon elevate the Penitentiary series to new heights? Can you eat an orange with the skin on? Will Yobo mention the completely outdated Hawk Tuah girl 15 times?! Find out on this episode of the bin!
The beach party crew (Mary, Julie, Bobby, and Mike) are back for the first week of Summer Sequel Month 2024! This year we find the beach infected by the British Invasion, a doppleganger Frankie, a confused Don Rickles, one of the stiffest chair shots you'll ever see, and... are we still having fun in beach world???? Find out on this episode of the bin!
Steve and Izzy from EILFM (Everything I Learned from Movies) join Bobby and Mike to discuss the Albert Pyun "classic" that he apparently filmed, dumped off to an editor, and never looked at again. An all female rock band gets the gig of a lifetime, they just have to fly across the galaxy to get there, that sounds fun... right? There has to be SOME fun in this movie... right? There has to be a movie in here... right? Find out on this episode of the bin!
Matt (from Movie Melt!), Yobo, Bobby, and Mike discuss a German movie about a man whose dick starts talking to him on his birthday. The guys also delve into exciting topics like how much a box costs and proper library foot etiquette. All this... and more!
Bobby, Brady, Vaughn, and Mike discuss one of the attempts for the Cannon Group to go legit with the John Frankenheimer thriller, 52 Pick-Up. Written by Elmore Leonard (Grindbin all-star for Stick), starring Roy Scheider and Ann-Margret, and featuring incredible performances from John Glover and Clarence Williams III, this movie is a real hidden gem in the Cannon catalog. Even stranger, this might not be the first time Cannon tried to adapt this film...
Bobby, Chef Robby, fourth chair Vaughn, and Mike talk about the animal attack movie that's actually about a man's insecurities facing baldness. Featuring an incredible performance from Henry Silva, Robert Forester getting multiple police partners killed, and a potentially very problematic relationship; Alligator has eveything you could hope for in a Grindbin movie!
Welcome to the Grindbin father's day special! Join Wick, Chuck, Bobby, and Mike as they discuss the winner of a recent "good" movie Patreon Poll from writer/director Paul Schrader. When George C. Scott's daughter goes missing on a church trip, he hires a private investigator (Peter Boyle) to track her down. What ensues is a dive into the seedy underworld of the west coast adult industry, and George C. Scott in the most ridiculous wig you've ever seen.
Chef Robby, Wick, Bobby, and Mike endure the worst movie we've ever watched on the Grindbin. There have been a lot of intellorable movies on this show but nothing, NOTHING, compares to The Legend of the Roller Blade Seven. From the director of Hell Comes to Frogtown and Baby Ghost, comes the worst excuse for a "movie" ever created. Thanks to our Patreon member who requested it! (we do really appreciate your support...)
Bobby, Yobo, new guest Joe, and Mike talk about what many on letterboxd deems the "worst Burt Reynolds movie". Based on an Elmore Leonard novel (and screenplay) Burt finds himself fresh out of prison and getting caught up in the local Miami crime scene. Strap in for lot of horrible jokes, the return of Jai alai to the bin, the weakest of insects, and Burt getting splinters in his mouth from the most wooden performance ever on the Grindbin.

This is right up there with all the movies I rewatch when I want a pick me up. The joke at 2:48:01 made me spit my drink everywhere.
You guys totally missed... The girls make music... 'Music from the Heart'
Jerry Reed can make some good music!
Blackie is from W.A.S.P. not Ratt!
I was having a bad day until I heard this episode, classic material!!!!👍🏾
Ghoulies III. Right off the top Mike sounds like nothing has ever annoyed him as much as the fact that this movie even exists. By the end, defeated indifference.
Never heard of Moving Target. Linda had sworn off nudity by this point, and her next films with nudity (like Bedroom Eyes 2) were body doubles. Oddly, I completely lost interest in her career at that exact moment. Also, Mr. Crown's next call should come from a California state correctional facility.
The Unknown Comic was a featured performer on the Gong Show and not subject to the gonging rules. His act was very dirty and he toured with Murray Langston as his opener. He revealed his true identity on a live broadcast on NBC's Real People TV show in the early 1980s to huge ratings.
I'm scared to listen to this episode. I saw this movie only once, in 1990 or 1991, and I remember it being unpleasant and horrible. I dared to hope for boobs, but all I got was a homeless romcom that nobody wanted.
