The Game (1997)
Ready to play a game? Well, maybe not the one you're expecting. Zach and Amanda are going all the way back to 1997 and talking all things David Fincher as they discuss the under appreciated Michael Douglas film The Game.

The Crush (1993)
Anyone want lemonade? Zach and Amanda discuss some questionable choices in filmmaking from the 1993 movie The Crush. An underage Alicia Silverstone plays a 14 year old obsessed with her new 28 year old neighbor. But that, of course, is not the entire plot. This film is problematic in more than one way, and we are here to talk all about it. Take a listen and don’t forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Bluesky and Twitter.

Malice (1993)
Plot twist! Join Amanda and Zach as they discuss the 1993 mid-budget thriller Malice. This film has a loaded all star cast, yet it kind of fell between the cracks amidst all the 90's thrillers.

Copycat (1995)
Time to check those squirrel covers and tune in as Amanda and Zach are discussing the 1995 throw away thriller Copycat. In the midst of so many-mid-budget-mid-90's thrillers, why didn't this one take off more? Take a listen and don’t forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Bluesky and Twitter.
