Episode Description from the Publisher

Not every movie is a masterpiece, and not every comedy plays by the rules—but can a film be gleefully stupid and strangely brilliant at the same time? Join the gang as we dive into the wild fantasy comedy Cabin Boy (1994), the polarizing oddball from Disney’s now-defunct Touchstone Pictures banner (with a little Tim Burton magic in the producer’s chair). Chris mistook it as conventional when picking this review—prepare for groans, laughs, debates, and plenty of gabbing about this bizarre misadventure. Arrogance gets a reality check, a pampered “fancy lad” gets humbled the hard way, and perhaps we all hopped aboard the wrong ship (stagecoach?) This may be a bumpy ride, so don't get seasick! Oh fancy boy, indeed… Next up is a similar type of film starring Sly. Stay tuned.  Please rate us a 5/5 on Apple, Spotify, or Podbean, and review us on Apple.  Our episode catalogue: https://searchersfilmpodcast.podbean.com/
