All in one movie from 1999 — and nobody talks about it. This week on Cinema Psychos, Brian and John are joined by Amanda and Lucy of Wine & Crime — the true crime & comedy podcast — to dig into Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999), the mockumentary dark comedy that bombed at the box office, got roasted by Roger Ebert, and quietly became one of the greatest cult films of the decade.

Kazaam (1996) Was Even Worse Than You Remember | Shaq's Genie Movie Reviewed
Cinema Psychos Movie Reviews
Subscribe to our newsletter so the algorithm can't stop you from finding us- https://the-cinema-psychos-show.kit.com/9e9a267e76 In 1996, Touchstone Pictures looked at Shaquille O'Neal, looked at their checkbook, and said: "Genie movie. Let's go." Nobody wrote a real script. Nobody asked questions. And somehow, nobody noticed the kid protagonist falls nine stories into an abandoned building in the first five minutes and should be dead for the entire rest of the film. This week on the Cinema Psychos Show, Brian and John are digging into Kazaam — one of the most competently filmed disasters in...

Is Waterworld Really That Awful? | Kevin Costner is a MERMAN Who Drinks HIs Own Pee
Cinema Psychos Movie Reviews
Kevin Costner spent $200 million making a Mad Max ripoff on the open ocean — and the man has gills behind his ears. That's right. Waterworld's hero is a merman. A gill-having, web-toed, pee-drinking merman. And Cinema Psychos is here to ask the only question that matters: Really That Awful? Brian and John go full deep dive on Waterworld (1995), one of Hollywood's most notorious production disasters and one of the most divisive bad movies of the 1990s. They cover everything: why shooting on open ocean is genuinely suicidal for a film budget, how Kevin Costner fired his own director...

How Corporate Greed Killed Batman Forever | Toys, Angry Parents, and McDonalds | 10th Anniversary Episode!
Cinema Psychos Movie Reviews
McDonald's killed Batman. Then Warner Brothers buried him in neon. After Batman Returns traumatized parents and Christian groups, McDonald's panicked and pulled their Happy Meal deal. Warner Brothers, terrified of losing fast food merchandising money, forced a course correction that gave us Batman Forever—a neon-soaked, toyetic mess that abandoned Tim Burton's gothic vision for Joel Schumacher's campy, pun-filled nightmare. In this 10th anniversary episode of the Cinema Psychos Show, hosts Cottington and John Wooliscroft do a full Batman Forever fix and Batman Forever review—ranting about...

Is Panic Room (2002) Just "Home Alone" With Competent Criminals ? ft. Anastasia Elfman
Cinema Psychos Movie Reviews
Is Panic Room just Home Alone For Adults? David Fincher's 2002 home invasion thriller is sharper, darker, and weirder than you remember — and this week we're breaking down every inch of it. Brian, John, and returning guest Anastasia Elfman revisit one of the most underrated thrillers of the early 2000s. They cover Fincher's Hitchcockian direction, those impossibly fluid CGI camera moves, and the film's relentless tension-building — plus everything the IMDb synopsis conveniently left out. On the table this week: whether Jared Leto's cornrow-sporting Junior ruins the film or serves it...

Ready or Not (2019): The Horror Comedy That Gets Better Every Time You Watch It | feat. KT Baldassaro
Cinema Psychos Movie Reviews
Ready or Not 2 is in theaters — so we went back to where it all started. Brian, John, and filmmaker/critic KT Baldassaro (@MovieRuntime) dig into the 2019 original and make the case that it's one of the smartest, funniest, most satisfying horror comedies of the last decade. A bride. A devil-controlled game box. A mansion full of rich lunatics. Hide and seek to the death. What we cover: Why this is more satire than horror and why that makes it better — Samara Weaving's all-time performance and why she carries the whole film Why Adam Brody's Daniel has the real character arc, not...

Send Help (2026) Is Sam Raimi's Triumphant, BLOOD-SOAKED Return to HORROR with Anastasia Elfman!
Cinema Psychos Movie Reviews
Sam Raimi is BACK — and he brought the blood, gore and laughs! This week on The Cinema Psychos Show, Brian and John are joined by returning fan favorite Anastasia Elfman to break down Send Help, the gloriously unhinged, darkly comedic horror film that proves Sam Raimi still has the sickest tricks up his sleeve. We're talking demonic camera moves, Rachel McAdams absolutely losing her mind, the most satisfying workplace revenge scene in recent memory, and enough gore to make Evil Dead fans weep with joy. Is this the Sam Raimi film we've been waiting for since Army of Darkness? We think so. But...
info_outlineThis week on episode 287 of the cinema psychos show, we are coming to you straight from the 2023 Eerie Horror Fest to discuss Evil Dead Franchise; A film franchise that not only launched the careers of Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell, but also gave us a perfect example of how to tell a cabin in the woods horror movie.
But what is it about this franchise that makes it such a horror icon? Is it the insane gory visuals, the slapstick humor, or simply Bruce Campbell. Grab your broomstick and book of the dead as we dive into the world of The Evil Dead.
