The Jacked Up Review Show Podcast

  My best bud Billi G. Meskel (who's also a superfan of this show) helps me tackle the five current seasons of the hit show Prison Break. What would the announced sixth season (which coincidentally got far more detailed days after we originally recorded this!) look like? What was the direct to video filler film like (despite its lying "Final Break" title)?? Why is everyone so mixed on this Fugitive/24 type franchise??? Are these deadly assassins rejects from The Bourne Identity-Manchurian Candidate????   #JackedUpReviewShow #Podcast #PrisonBreak #TheFinalBreak #WilliamFichtner #WentworthMiller #Hulu #Streaming #DominicPurcell #LegendsOfTomorrow #DCComics #GreatEscape #BourneIdentity #JackBauer #Scofield #Chicago #TheFugitive #ManchurianCandidate #Antiheroes #Nikita #PersonOfInterest #Powertvshow #Sopranos #Yellowstone #Legendstvshow #Transporter

The trio teamed up for the first big group episode of Season 3. Why does this franchise appeal so much to each generation and which are the best films of the saga to introduce to each audience?  ##JackedUpReviewShow #Podcast #ScoobyDoo #Horror #Mystery #Comedy

Jackey, the beloved B-movie icon who played the little girl Debbie in the infamous Manos: The Hands of Fate, joins us for an amusing recasting of who would appear in a bigger-budgeted version and far creepier version of this movie. We also recast it, add different crew and get to even interview Jackey on her various other recent movie roles, her painting career and books that she’s authored. Jackey also sheds additional light on what it was light attending the movie’s premiere, her father’s community theater background (and how he was a fan of MST3k and realized one day his movie happened to be on his favorite show!), the general El Paso’s audience general reactions and how it left cinemas after a two week run. A must-listen for all cult movie fanatics!#JackedUpReviewShow #Manos #ManosTheHandsOfFate #PrimalRage #Bigfoot #Sasquatch #Recast #Redo #ThisMovie #MST3k #MysteryScienceTheater3000 #BMovieStars #FullMoon #TimThomerson #CharlesBand #DaleDabone #CassandraCruz #AndrewDivoff #TVsFrank #Wishmaster #EricRoberts #DTV #Sequels #Torgo #MichaelJNelson #JohnReynolds #TomNeyman #TheMaster #Debbie #Crime #Horror #SciFi #Movies #Discussion #Podcast #JackeyRayeNeymanJones #ChurchOfSatan #Texas #FilmedProductions #TheDevilsRain #WilliamShatner #StarTrek #RealLifeTerror #Horror #SciFi #CreatureFeature #BoggyCreek #TheMaster #Props #ElevatorMusic #FrankConniff #TraceBeaulieu #KevinMurphy #BillCorbett #JoelHodgson #JimMallon #CrowTRobot #TomServo #1966 #1960s #TexasTheaters #IndependentFilmmaking #Moviemaking #Filming #MidnightPremiere #UnintentionalLaughter #FunniestMovie #Dubbing #Crying #ElPaso #CommunityTheater #ComedyCentral #RiffTrax #VHSRecording #ManosTheReturn #Wikipedia #TheSearchForValleyLodge #TheRiseOfTorgo #Facebook #VoicesFromTheBalcony #JimMorazzini #DTVMovies #WWE #Wrestlers #MMAFighter #WebSeries #DebbieChronicles #Supernatural #Revenge #DriveInTheaters #SatanicCults #ChurchOfSatan #Plan9FromOuterSpace #Artist #Paintings #ArtDirection #FrankZappa #CurseOfBigfoot #PatrickMcGee #AlienVsPredator #Alien #Predator #Terror #Showtime #Troma #Dallas #TX #Texas #UrbanMyths #UrbanLegend #Marketing #MakingOf #Infamous #JohnReynolds #IPhone #Android #Phone #AlecBaldwin #BillyBobThornton #Recasting #JackNicholson #TheShining #SteveAndIzzy #EverythingILearnedFromMovies #NicolasCage #TheWickerMan #StevenSpielberg #CloseEncountersOfTheThirdKind #StrangerThings #Netflix #MillieBobbyBrown #ChristopherWalken #SteveBuscemi #JohnLithgow #CarrieFisher #StarWars #LindaBlair #Exorcist #TommyWiseau #TheRoom #QuentinTarantino #PulpFiction #NaturalBornKillers #TerryJones #MontyPython #TheMeaningOfLife #Sick #Scientology #BruceCampbell #EvilDead #TrashCinema #DList #Babylon5 #PatriciaTallman #ClaudiaChristian #JackDeth #Trancers #Dollman #MichaelMadsen #ReservoirDogs #TiffanyShepis #YancyButler #HardTarget #TrentReznor #NIN #NineInchNails #LinShaye #LinneaQuigley #LanceHenriksen #ScreamQueens #NightOfTheDemons #Boobs #Nudity #Shudder #FromDuskTillDawn #TomSavini #CThomasHowell #PonyBoy #CriminalMinds #Vampires #FredWilliamson #Voodoo #MusicVideo #Wishmaster  #HelenaBonhamCarter #MichelleBauer #TraciScoggins #Highlander #DeborahAnnWoll #TrueBlood #Breasts #GeorgeRomero #Models #CaraDelevingne #Valerian #LucBesson #RubyRose #Batwoman #OrangeIsTheNewBlack #TheMeg #ChrissyTeigen #LeoDiCaprio #Oscar #BarRefaeli #CharliesAngels #VictoriasSecret #StellaMaxwell #Tumblr #Reddit #StellaMaxwell #Eegah #Mitchell #WatchOutForSnakes #JoeDonBaker #RichardKiel #BoaConstrictor #JenniferLynch #LifeOfBrian #Twitter #LarryCohen #TheStuff #Species #DieHard #Hellraiser #PeterWeller #Robocop #Art #RipOff #ComicBook #KevinBacon #Legacy #Tremors #Footloose #StephenKing #DarkTower #Merlin #FutureWar #SantaClaus #VillageOfTheGiants #DeathProof #PodPeople #Squirm #GoldenAge #SantaConquersTheMartians #Indiana #Philadelphia #NewJersey #AChristmasStory #JohnSaxon #BruceLee #HorrorHound #DolphLundgren #CableTVShows #HBO

Robb and I continue our on-going conversation by switching it to how pretentious and poorly researched half the film and TV discussions end up being while making sense of the origin of this nonsense.  #TVProducers #BatmanVsSuperman #QuentinTarantino #BrianDePalma #Homages #Avengers #DC #Marvel #Controversy #MovieBuff #Geeks #Nerds #Geekdom #TwitterFeud #Noir #Netflix #B&WMovies @ModernDayMovies

Here with Robb Antequera of the film blogsite The Cinema Drunkie as he discusses how the visual style of the '80s cartoon Superboy and stylish CSI franchise glued him to the small screen every time. We later dive into what is missing in today's staged reality show settings, long-time TV dramas making controversial cast changes, Netflix taking over TV binge-watching and our various encounters with hostile fanboys and their endless band-wagons. 

In our first ever Comedy Roast special, we decided to unleash it during the holiday season for a winter-filled franchise known as HBO's GAME OF THRONES:   Like any roast, we get to the nitty and gritty about why it created a divisive fanbase, the lack of proper plot outlines & end with some compliments.     ROASTERS: Gil Palmer, James Bruno, Tom Lindaman & Cam Sully   GUESTS: Oreo Brewer & Josh Hansen   INTRO: I've Been Meaning to Watch That's Manika Dulcio     SONGS INTRO: "Game of Thrones Dead Character Medley (Parody)" by The Warp Zone     

It's time for another annual special to two of our favorite Christmas time movies of all time: GREMLINS 1 & 2.   What is the most cynical line of dialogue by far?   Despite the first film being rather violent, isn't it surprisingly how low the body count actually is?   What other funny easter eggs on corporations, Hollywood & celebrity personas will you find in the sequel?   All that while avoiding getting anything wet!     OUR GUESTS INCLUDE:  John Paul Dozier & Charlie Hildebrand (Action Movie Saturday on Twitter)

A look at the cancelled then later rescued cable TV epic SNOWPIERCER occurs in this minisode:   *What solid casting does this edgy mature audience-minded show contain?   *What does this do with the premise that is way more captivating than the movie version?   *And what does it offer apart from other apocalyptic genre offerings?         SONGS USED: "Delay Rock" and "Exit the Premises" by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Boomer (from Podcast in the Woods) joins me to summarize Bret Easton Ellis' satirical look at terrible human beings disguised as established elites.    How much more graphic is the book version of AMERICAN PSYCHO and what are some surprising trivia about how it got greenlit?   What sequence of events actually did happen and which ones were in Patrick Bateman's demented mind?   Why was RULES OF ATTRACTION appropriate subject matter for Quentin Tarantino's partner-in-crime Roger Avery?   All that and other books by Ellis that could possibly be adapted in the future with the right satirical filmmaker!    

YT Comedian/Podcaster Hoff Matthews joins me to sum up our favorite moments about the so-bad-it's-good slasher dark comedy franchise SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT.   Which installment would be so much better if it loosened up on the disturbing backstory?   Is the first sequel still one of the best quotable bad movies of all time?   Are director Brian Yuzna's later entries honestly the best?   All this and theories on if it inspired other OTT comedies!       FOLLOW HOFF MATTHEWS HERE: https://hoffmatthews.com/     MUSIC USED: SNDS 2 OST Soundtrack by Perry Botkin      

It's time for more unofficial Christmas/Winter set movies and more for this holiday season so get ready as we go into overdrive in delivering more whacky entertainment for your earbuds:   I decided it was time to revisit the Christmas backdrop set other adaptations of THE BOURNE IDENTITY.   In this minisode, you get a look at the original '80s mini-series event as well as the criminally underrated fighting game THE BOURNE CONSPIRACY which combines elements of the books and the movies!     MUSIC USED: "Delay Rock," "Leopard Print Elevator" and "Double O" by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/     Other Free-To-Use Music by Soundscrate.

To close out the parent's basement themed week, Tom & JJ reflect with Cam on the infamous movies featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000/RiffTrax that actually aren't a pain to endure nor unwatchable.   There Are Worser Crimes Against Cinema!     SONG USED:  "A Clown in the Sky" by Farid Barron Trio

Filmbuff Jeff Kerr, Poet Oreo Brewer & the usual podcasting suspects welcome interviewer Jimmy Carter for a tribute on actor/filmmaker Jack Nicholson.   TOPICS INCLUDE: *Discussion on his rare appeal with both critics & audiences, the best parodies of him & how his career is a special kind of lightning in a bottle *When did he become the recognizable "character" while avoid becoming a mockery of himself? *We note the dramatic beats & Natural cadence in his dialogue mixed with his quirky charisma) *Was ventriloquist comedian Otto Petersen the best at doing impressions of Nicholson? *Jimmy also gets to talk about what it's like meeting both Nicholson AND Elvis Presley in-person from actual experience!   INTRO CLIP: Film '82 special with Ian Johnstone Interviewing Jack Nicholson

We get to sum up our favorite quotes, character studies, battles & recurring mysteries on the spin-off Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.   What is more gripping here compared to other Trek outings?   How does it handle a throwback to the original show while balancing out legal arguments, planetary terror, tech talk & tactical action like the later shows became known for?   SONGS USED: "End Credits" and "Subspace Rhapsody End Credits Melody" by Jeff Russo    

In this Minisode, I reflect on a special kind of spy/mystery show you might'be encountered on Masterpiece Theater: THE BLETCHLEY CIRCLE.   The premise involves some British code-breakers who must track down unusual serial killings during the '50s. Is it going to appeal to those who want some first-class TV or only the cozy viewing crowd? Find out in this quick reflection on one of the many recent small-screen hits.     SONGS USED: "Chase" and "Pulse Rock" by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/    

It's another week of talking about key pop culture stuff you might've encountered in random capacities (if not your parent's basement); check this out: We've got a tribute to the revolutionary TOY STORY saga that launched Pixar into being the king of the CGI animated drama style with gripping scripts, animation breakthroughs and noteworthy characters.   To start us off as we speak on the four movies, TV specials, videogames, meta-storybooks & rather appropriate merchandise, we got 3 exclusive voicemails from mega-cartoon fans: Dina Gonzalez (and her son Draken), Dr. Nic Hoffman (Myopia Movies & Required Reading) Ocho (from Drunk Discussions)     Free-To-Use Music by Soundscrate!

Bada-bing, bada-boom: it's time for us to finally discuss our favorite moments and characters from HBO's The Sopranos.   Other discussions include joking about the failed attempt to syndicate it on other edited TV networks & James gets to do his best Tony Soprano impressions!   GUESTS INCLUDE: Poet & YouTuber Oreo Brewer Josh Hansen (Baseball's Bastard Son, Action Movie Book Club)      

Everyone's encountered a Dick Wolf TV show production at one point whether it's while sick in bed from school or at a random party so it's time to have others note the absolute most memorable antagonists (who were either one-offs or a recurring presence).   How many were corrupt big pharma suits, corrupt detectives or shady prosecutors and how many were atypical thieves, spree killers and truly shameless crimelords?   Some quick and to-the-point reminiscing about some clever must-see TV that resembles a potboiling, page-turning novel!       SHOWS MENTIONED: Law & Order saga (Original show, SVU, CI, OC, Trial By Jury, Conviction) New York Undercover FBI & FBI: Most Wanted Chicago Fire/PD Chicago Justice       GUESTS FEATURED: Aahana Asija (Jean from X) Leanne Caruso Oliver Rockside & Jasen Bach (In Your Earholes Network) Oreo Brewer     Free-To-Use Music by Soundscrate.

We continue our hysterical group conversations to reflect on some of the whackiest comic book versus matches in publishing history. Talking Points include: *Is the Darkseid Vs. Galactus match underrated? *Did you know that the Green Hornet & Lone Ranger were related? *Why did they make a DC Comics Vs. Mortal Kombat event when there was no fatalities? *We also surprise each other with crazy trivia       GUESTS FEATURED: Daniel "Nightmare Nerd" Ryan, Oreo Brewer, The Predator Minute trio (Cliff Stevenson, Shane Kelley & A-aron Landerville), James Bruno, Gil Palmer, Tom Lindaman & MIke Ensing         SONG USED: "The Ultimate Showdown" by Lemon Demon
