God damn this movie needs more love.

[@DaddysToyKingdom]

A very underrated movie! I love this one!

[@lumen8341]

My teen bedroom posters: Jawbreaker, Romy & Michele's High School Reunion, and Drop Dead Gorgeous. I still have them. 💋👠🕶💖

[@himwhoisnottobenamed5427]

Weirdo. I had posters for movies like Pi, Cube, Koyaanisqatsi. You know, normal movies. 😂

[@peytondoss405]

Jawbreaker had an awesome movie poster 🌟🌟

[@jalap7676]

One of my favorite movies ever. I watch this movie sooo many times

[@Sleeprace]

"amer-I can, I don't know I getit its like a gift from god or something." one of my favorite movies ever

[@CeeJayThe13th]

"Nobody liked anything in the 90s" That's a good quote and pretty true! It took me a long time to get over that and be able to like things.

[@1987Liono]

Not true. I loved this in the 90s. Mad crush on Kirsten Dunst.

[@fogelogel8642]

This, Cruel Intentions, Sugar and Spice, Jawbreaker, Election... it was kind of a golden age of dark teen movies and we didn't even know it.

[@whiplashfilms]

Fogelogel I think Election and Cruel Intentions got and still gets a lot of love. I don't really recall liking Jawbreaker that much. Sugar and Spice was alright far as I remember it; isnt that the one where the girls get the idea from Point Break to rob the bank?

[@fogelogel8642]

That's the one. I forgot Teaching Ms. Tingle! I guess I can see why Brad would have been sick of the genre at the time.

[@culwin]

I assumed these were all cheap knock-offs of each other. Maybe they were actually good though.

[@MyssBlewm]

I never liked Cruel Intentions as much as everyone else, but i did watch it more than just a few times. And I remember not liking Jawbreaker very much when I originally saw it, but I watched it again a couple years ago and I ended up kind of liking it a lot. LOL I really enjoyed Sugar and Spice a lot. Now that I think about it, there were a lot of teen comedies. A lot of bad stuff, but also a lot of hidden gems. I never heard of "All I Wanna Do" until a few weeks ago, and I'm really surprised it's not one of those films that has a cult following.

[@chroniclesofalivingdeadgirl]

culwin no, they were just cheap knockoffs of better movies like Smile and Heathers

[@heisensaul5538]

"Thank god Judge Reinhold walked in." I think that's the first time in about 25 years anyone has said that

[@treemarie213100]

HeisenSaul 😂

[@morrowj74]

its extra funny if you've spent any time in minnesota

[@phineaspoe3910]

If you like Drop Dead Gorgeous (LOVE IT!), you should see Sugar & Spice, high school cheerleaders/bank robbers.

[@JimmiPynk]

Val Hall Another underrated dark comedy that is amazing! no one remembers Sugar and Spice but I absolutely love it! and this!

[@Awakeandalive1]

MORE SARAH = MORE POWER!

[@tracyhale8336]

Aww...the ending is HILARIOUS! The ‘adults’ are the stars at the end. Kills me! Allison Janney, especially.

[@aaronfoster5680]

"Don't worry; Barry Gibb just saved it" needs to be on a t-shirt.

[@culwin]

Never saw this one. Will check it out. Because Sarah is goals.

[@philipisley8348]

"That's nice, John. That's real nice. You know the babysitter's dead!"

[@NJGuy1973]

But Hank got acquitted.

[@thejasonlundgren]

I love Will Sasso in that movie. ARE WE ON COPS??!! ARE WE ON COPS??!!

[@philipisley8348]

"Shut up, Hank. This here's business."

[@mikochaos6310]

to this day my mom and i still quote that whenever we see either cops on tv or when we are in a car together and see cop lights

[@Amy.B]

I didn't know they re-released "Drop Dead Gorgeous" in theaters, it's one of my favorite movies.

[@H0lyMoley]

Man, I love this film! I saw it when I was young and (let's admit it) not averse to seeing beautiful Hollywood starlets dressing up on-screen. I wasn't expecting to love it as much as I did. Denise Richards' duet with "Jesus"... that has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen on film. And Kirstie Allie just kills it - she is freakin' hilarious from the first moment she's onscreen until the last. It has a young pre-Spiderman Kirsten Dunst, a West Wing-era Allison Janney (playing a very, very different character, and having a blast), and a bunch of other talent. The writing in this movie is so damn good. EDIT: I always kinda thought Richards' character might have killed the boyfriend too. They made a point of having her say that her mom gave her the sniper rifle for her boyfriend, kinda pointing at the mother, but it always seemed like the daughter was the one with the bigger motive.

[@JimmiPynk]

I gotta say I was so excited to see a midnight Screening of this. I was big into the state back then too, but I didn't know Michael Showalter was involved. But I remember this movie and I loved it!!! it's dark satire and so over the top. Kirstie Allie, Ellen Burstyn, Amy Adams, Britney Murphy, ugh such a slice of Nostalgia. Haven't seen it probably since like 2000, but remember it clear! gotta go rent it now. Where is it on Netflix! Also Happy Texas is amazing as well

[@MyssBlewm]

I remember it seemed like everyone was hating on this film when it was originally released, so I never watched it in theatres, but I caught it on tv a couple years later and loved it. LOL Glad you liked it this time around, Brad.

[@jayjeckel]

Thank you, you reminded me that it has been a year or so since I rewatched crocodile dundee 1 and 2 and I need to get around to watching them again. Those movies are great and despite what Sarah says they both still hold up just fine.

[@adiahaalexander9359]

I love this movie I don't remember it being in theatres but I caught it on cable one day and it cracked me up. It's so underrated, no one talks about it which is a shame.

[@ikethenerd8942]

Saw this movie when I was five, used to watch it once a week. Had all the lines memorized. Haven't seen it in over five years due t our vcr breaking!

[@melyntenshi]

This movie was filmed in my old Middle School. I was an extra in this thing! I love this movie so much.

[@Campbellzilla]

My mom and sisters introduced me to this movie, I loved it!

[@DestinyPifer]

This is one of my favorite movies!

[@johnsmithy9850]

Seeing this wants me to hear Brad's thoughts on Heathers.

[@yupitsjessbbyx3]

This is literally one of my favorite movies.

[@treemarie213100]

I have always loved this movie.

[@archer1949]

I was thinking Death Becomes Her as well.

[@stepitup25]

Great movie! Throwback to my teen years.

[@yowee1234]

This is one of my all-time favorite films! I'm so glad you reviewed it.

[@thewhoboy]

I remember when this movie came out I wanted to see it but the group that I was with wanted to see Runaway Bride. Needless to say I never got to see Drop Dread Gorgeous, but I got to see a boring slow movie with Julia Roberts!!

[@Somethingnapalm]

My sIster and I loved this movie, we watched it every time it come on Starz.

[@grahamphillips3916]

Somethingsomethingnapalm

[@Z3ROTH3RT33N]

My family loved this movie. "Airport Hojo!" was a long lived inside joke among us.

[@jlprizm]

I don't remember if I've seen this before but now I really want to watch it. I love these kind of movies.

[@meatballguy1]

I love the irony of Stayin' Alive playing on the radio while you two are talking about a movie in which people die in graphic fashion. XD It's like the beginning of Belko Experiment, with "I Will Survive" playing, which, when I watched it, I was trying so hard not to laugh because of you and Brian's review of it.

[@LaPenserosa1]

Totally random and you probably already know but Vice-Versa was a remake of an old British movie of the same title written by Peter Ustinov. It's funny and the scene you describe is in that movie and just as strange as the new film. Give it a watch, if only to see the bit with the Temple of the Laughing Hyena. Glad to hear you enjoyed Drop Dead Gorgeous. I'll have to re-watch it now because during the entire review I was thinking of the bank heist movie 'Sugar and Spice.' Come to think of it, preppy girls doing criminal stuff was kind of a thing back then.

[@openmind2161]

You guys could make a Seinfield show Out of your Lives or Maybe we are already inside that show

[@LuckyPunkProd]

Didn't they do something like that with '80s Dan?

[@justindenney-hall5875]

(Insert X files music here)

[@KeeperOfUntoldDreams]

I desperately want to see this movie.

[@plum3343]

I was about 9 or 10 when I first saw this movie. I haven't seen it since, but I remember liking it.

[@maxcardillo6390]

never heard of this movie until now. I was born in 95 so I would of not seen it when it came out. but after watching you talk about it. it sounds hilarious

[@rayhs1984]

Quick look says that this movie debuted at 11 and was in 1200 screens for 2 weeks.

[@Dill_Pickle5760]

Do more of these, this was great

[@nibblitman]

Yeah this was filmed at my Middle School. I remember seeing my locker a few times in it and thought that was super cool

[@FishTitan64]

15:28 Your car is possessed. AIN'T NO OTHA EXPLANATION.

[@Never_heart]

I have to watch this

[@wilikerdinkles100]

I remember watching this on vhs when I was 6 years old. I don't how I was able to watch it without my parents noticing. Which is crazy considering all the cursing and crazy shit that goes on in the movie. I still think its a really underrated movie and recommend checking out. Just don't let the kids watch it too.

[@fenderlove]

Drop Dead Gorgeous is one of my favourite movies of all time. "Take down the goddamn Frieda sign, you lazy sons of bitches!"

[@peterp2626]

Fun fact: the IMDb page for this movie has the wrong trailer. They included the trailer for the 2010 direct to video "Drop Dead Gorgeous" with Jeremy London. www.imdb.com/title/tt0157503/

[@sofiaciel7599]

This movie's name just makes me think of that old British band, Republica. It was the title of their OTHER song, heh.

[@badbenito]

Best cast ever! Hilarious!

[@traerichard]

Such a great movie!!!!

[@futuremovieactor]

I have so many requests, but just one costs a 100 bucks, so I've really got to make it worth my while.

[@Johnny0lovely69]

at 25:00 it did happens in Revenge of the Nerds

[@jetfire851]

The "driving off with a girl possibly against her will" is from Animal House, when Bluto rides off with one of the Jackie Kennedys from the parade float. At the very end you see them identified as "Senator and Mrs. John Blutarsky".

[@Username159_]

Doug Glassman On the DVD there's an bonus feature of 'where are they now' of the cast as if it was a documentary and they had him become President.

[@Imladros]

That flick is 18 years old?! Fuck I'm old...

[@ramsfan0868]

SARAH!!!

[@Zeitgeist6]

It does sound like Sixteen Candles. Been a while since I've seen it but I seem to remember Anthony Michael Hall doing something similar.

[@robotdan]

15:28 might wanna mute that before youtube slaps you again

[@robotdan]

ok anime thing

[@whiplashfilms]

I havent seen this in at least 15 years but as soon as you brought up the former beauty queen who's now an anorexic it all came back to me. funny movie as I recall, not sure why I didnt watch it more.

[@fenrirblaze9350]

Make them Watch What About Bob?

[@mrmusickhimself]

One of my cult favorites, Brittany Murphy was so damn good. And Will Sasso may not be P.C. but I laugh at "I'm the judge! I'm the judge!" everytime.

[@JohnnyDaBird]

damn tripping right now and brad held his breath from 0:28

[@PalehorseThirteen]

Brad looks like he's still in the 90's.

[@cartridgegamer5224]

I agree it's a great flick,and hot chicks and a funny accent,Canadian maybe(sounded kinda Irish).Its the same accent that Stuart's mom from beavis and butthead.

[@SunglassesManOfficial]

I really want to see this now, but it's not available on Netflix DVD to rent lol I might just buy it

[@morrowj74]

ladies and gentlemen the movie big.

[@geoffreysorkin5774]

25:18. that's the end of Animal House.

[@numberonehickey]

Have you seen Crocodile Dundee In LA

[@Arroyo2099]

Interstate 60 rocks!!!

[@shaharavigdori8641]

please review natural born killers

[@th3mdt]

Wait, Interstate 60? Isn't that a Bob Zemeckis film? With a brief appearance by Michael J. Fox? I remember really liking that film, check it out.

[@whiplashfilms]

th3mdt Yes and No - Its a BOB GALE movie, who cowrote all the Zemeckis films pre Forrest Gump, so its easy to get them confused

[@th3mdt]

I knew there was some connection, because I know Bob Gale worked on Back to the Future. Thanks for the clarification.

[@D0ug1997]

I keep coming back for Sarah's cry at 11:57. Don't know why

[@morrowj74]

Senator and mrs. blutarsky. the end of animal house.

[@MrKaywyn]

Very funny review.

[@jswalton2009]

If I made a good offer to you brad would you and brain or Dave review the entire Saw Series with a movie a week leading up to the release of Saw Legacy this October.

[@justindenney-hall5875]

the movie you were thinking of sara was revenge of the nerds the lead character played by robert carradine has sex with the stuck up lead cheerleader by tricking into thinking he was her boyfriend which he did by stealing his darth vader mask at a carnival where everyone was in costume and they do it in the moon room of the funhouse .And I agree with brad there some fucked up parts in that movie , but I've loved it since I first saw it as a child and porky's (my parents were rather liberal...)

[@paulsmith8510]

My friends and I have a Drop Dead Gorgeous Party every year.

[@GoldenGyroBalls]

Sarah kind of looked like Mia Wasikowska in the thumbnail for some reason. Probably the hair.

[@jstalk1]

Here's the movie to review: The Magical Legend of the Leprechauns. Randy Quaid goes to Ireland and shenanigans ensue between leprechauns and fairies. It is so weird (clearly drugs were used to make the film). Have Brad, Sarah, and Dave watch this. The whole review will consist of "What the hell was that we just saw?"

[@TempleofAmon666]

Maybe I should give it another shot. I hated it when I saw it in 99.

[@fleacythesheepgirl]

Brad stop teasing us you have to review Overboard :D

[@th3mdt]

I always get this one confused with Sugar and Spice, a movie I think I've seen bits and pieces of on cable about cheerleaders that rob a store or something in plastic masks?

[@NJGuy1973]

They were written by the same woman, a former teen beauty queen. But Sugar and Spice got re-edited so much that she asked to be credited under a pseudonym.

[@thatquietkid]

i love this movie so much! "no she's just screaming mom mom cause she's got Tourette's"

[@treemarie213100]

jon butler thats one of my favorites too! This movie had so many good ones like that.

[@frenchcookie42]

How much would I need to pay for the whole gang to watch 'Fire With Me' before the new season of Twin Peaks come out?

[@heisensaul5538]

Now Sarah, you are confusing Brad with Josh Hadley. He was that guy in the 90s.

[@90sgrungechick5]

Oh God, I remember Jerry Springer's Ringmaster...

[@LigerFan]

I hope someone on Patreon goes for "Like Father Like Son"! Dudley Moore swaps bodies with the one, the only, the inimitable KIRK CAMERON!

[@dancepiglover]

That scene in "Big" where he has sex with that woman is the only reason I don't like the movie. That's messed up.

[@himwhoisnottobenamed5427]

Yeah, I mean he’s still a kid. Even if he is in an adult body.

[@JetblackThemeTime]

Micheal Ian Black?

[@1000huzzahs]

I thought the movie where that one girl is raped-by-deception WAS "Revenge of the Nerds."

[@StonedGremlinProductions]

It is, but it seems like Sarah was thinking of something else.

[@smashfanwii]

i guess I had a fever dream because I could've sworn I thought you guys did a screening of It's Pat. please don't do a screening of It's Pat.

[@StonedGremlinProductions]

A recent crossover Allison and I did on Movie Nights is on It's Pat.

[@smashfanwii]

Stoned Gremlin Productions oh yeah! I must have gotten those mixed up. WHELP, gonna watch that now!

[@sylviaphillips5803]

I don't know who Tom Lennon is but I know John Lennon

[@skeevy_nyx]

Copyright claim for 0.5 seconds of a Bee Gees song.

[@JimWellsIsGreat]

What a weird re-release. Great movie, though.

[@Launchpad05]

I would rather watch all 5 episodes of 'Chuck Norris Karate Commandos' than watch 'Jerry Springer'! No, I would hijack any station that still airs that crap, and air nothing but 80's cartoons just to show people how dumb they were for watching him!

[@grahamphillips3916]

Marc Baker's

[@Stefano.C]

Someone should recommend Vanilla Sky already! xD

[@darknessviking]

FIRST

[@chroniclesofalivingdeadgirl]

I never liked Revenge of the Nerds. Like that one sucked! And I have high tolerance on that kind of shit.
