Shat the Movies: 80's & 90's Best Film Review

• Airheads (1994)

  This week, Shat The Movies cranks the amps, loads the water guns and storms the radio station for 1994’s Airheads. Commissioned by listener John W., this forgotten rock comedy captures a moment when being a long-haired metalhead still meant something—and when you had to physically take hostages just to get your demo played. Gene and Big D relive the glory days of Blockbuster soundtracks and flannel rebellion while asking: was Airheads secretly a Gen X prophecy about streaming, soulless algorithms and the death of radio or just a juvenile comedy where Brendan Fraser, Steve Buscemi, and Adam Sandler somehow make the dumbest idea ever seem kind of badass? Along the way, the hosts debate Brendan Fraser’s heartthrob era, Steve Buscemi’s brief flirtation with “normal guy energy” and why physical media might be the only thing keeping our culture alive. They also accidentally invent the world’s first militant anti-Spotify movement. Is Airheads an under-appreciated anthem for the lost rock generation—or proof that metalheads should never be trusted with firearms, fake or not? Crank it up and find out.

• Dungeons & Dragons (2000)

  This week on Shat the Movies, we roll for initiative with Dungeons & Dragons (2000), a fantasy flop packed with rubbery dragons, chaotic CGI, and Jeremy Irons chewing every piece of scenery in sight. Gene and Big D brave the nonsensical plot, baffling performances, and a magic system that makes zero sense, even for D&D fans. Is it so bad it’s fun, or just a critical failure?

• The Last Dragon (1985)

  This week, Shat The Movies enters the world of Harlem kung fu, Motown soundtracks, and glowing fists with 1985’s The Last Dragon. Commissioned by listener Daylen, this mashup of martial arts flicks and music videos introduced audiences to Bruce Leroy, the Shogun of Harlem and one of the wildest cult classics of the ’80s. But does its mix of camp and kung fu still shine today, or is it just a guilty pleasure best left in the VHS era? Gene and Big D debate whether Taimak was an underrated action star or just a wooden lead propped up by Vanity’s charisma.  The Shat Crew relives Sho’nuff’s scene-stealing swagger, the bizarre Eddie Arkadian subplot and a soundtrack so strong it sometimes overshadows the movie itself. Along the way, Dick and Gene marvel at the glowing special effects, question if Leroy’s innocence makes him endearing or frustrating and admit that this might be the most “1985” movie ever made. Is The Last Dragon a true martial arts masterpiece with soul or just Motown’s strangest experiment? Who’s the master? Sho’nuff!

• Dead Poets Society (1989)

  This week, the Shat The Movies boys dust off their prep school blazers and follow Robin Williams into Welton Academy for 1989’s Dead Poets Society. Commissioned by listener Rob F., this Oscar-winning coming-of-age drama gave the world “Carpe Diem,” a standing-on-desks finale, and enough inspiration to launch a thousand “cool teacher” clichés. But does it still move us 35 years later, or has it become too earnest for its own good? Gene and Big D wrestle with their own school baggage while debating whether John Keating is a saintly mentor or a reckless enabler who lit fires in his students without offering any guardrails. We revisit Ethan Hawke’s breakout role, the betrayal of Cameron (still unforgivable), and whether Neil’s tragedy hits harder as adults who now understand the crushing weight of parental expectation. Along the way, Big D confesses he usually hates “inspirational teacher” movies, Gene compares Keating’s lessons to Krav Maga, and both hosts admit Robin Williams nails his most delicate performance without veering into schmaltz. Is Dead Poets Society timeless poetry, or just a prep school fantasy that collapses under its own sentimentality? Seize the day and find out.
