The embodiment of "we have Platoon at home", this Cannon Film was a far cry from their normal excess and nonsense as it looks like they tried to make a serious Vietnam movie with Michael Dudikoff (the guy from the American Ninja movies). Then they did the most Cannon thing ever and changed the name after Platoon came out to sound just like it. But is it any good? You'll have to listen to find out!

This prophetic movie may have disappeared (seriously, try and find it), but the legacy of it lives on. Was it a warning to the future that we all ignored, or was it a sign of the times that we just didn't realize was happening 30 long years ago? Jeremy Piven and David Spade star in this college flick about political correctness.

Even though Sir Mix-a-Lot tried to warn us about what would happen if someone had buns, Jennifer Lopez went into the jungle anyway with Ice Cube and Owen Wilson and what do you think happened? A giant snake wreaks havoc on an unsuspecting film crew! Is this one of those movies that's so bad it's great, or is it just bad? What did you think of Anaconda? Let us know!

A remake of the original Cabin Fever from just 14 years ago, because someone was brave enough to ask the question - "what if we did this movie again, but this time it sucked?" After everyone in the room was done clapping they actually made the thing! Same script, worse actors! James, Patrick, Mattila and Curt wade into this nonsense and take you through the movie scene by scene so you don't have to watch it yourself.

Steven Seagal and his prison durag team up with Ja Rule as they both try their best to embarrass themselves in this early 2000s action movie that takes place on Alcatraz. The only people trying to break out are the people that are embarrassed to be in this movie. Because of the time it came out, it does carry a certain charm from that era, and there is lots of ridiculousness to love and roast.

Did this movie deserve the beating it got from critics and audiences? The Lost World:Jurassic Park followed up one of the most beloved movies of all time, and it split audiences and critics down the middle. Jeff Goldblum was the only star that returned, and adding in Julianne Moore and Vince Vaughn was a big swing. We walk through this movie scene by scene, as always, roasting the bad and trying to find what was done well before giving our final verdict on Steven Spielberg's The Lost...

Knights of the Old Code! It is time to travel back to 1996 and revisit Dragonheart again to see if it still holds up. This is one of those movies that you either saw as a kid and loved it with all your heart, or you didn't see it until later and maybe it didn't hit quite as hard. How does it hold up 28 years down the line? Featuring Dennis Quaid and his disappearing accent, along with Sean Connery giving his all as the voice of Draco, this one had audiences and critics split. Let us know what...

You either love this movie and have been defending it for the last 8 years, or you checked out back in 2016 as soon as you heard the word, MARTHA!! Either way, people have strong opinions on Batman vs. Superman and our hosts are no different. This film has been hotly debated among our group since before we even had a podcast, which is why it made perfect sense to save this one for one of our big episodes, number 150! The gloves are off and we are going to go through this movie and defend it...

Ratings wise this may be the 7th lowest film we've covered, but I'd rather watch almost anything else than this again. Dragon Wars is one of the worst movies ever made, and yet at the time of release was one of the most anticipated Korean films ever to come out. It somehow cleaned up at the international box office, and now it lands in our laps on Bad Movies Rule. Hopefully, you didn't watch it and you just listen to us nuke this thing from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. Join the...

Back in the magical land of the 1990s, Hollywood was turning over every rock they could to find the next great martial arts movie star! Step into the spotlight, Jeff Speakman! A Kenpo master with undeniable skill and technique, but it takes more than that to be a movie star. Let's throw every Asian bad guy from every 80's action movie ever made and see if they can carry him to victory!

While not the first ever made, chronologically first in the saga, and if we had started here we may never have received 8 other sequels. For some that's a good thing, for others, it would be a tragedy. The prequels have been equally praised by the younger generation and destroyed by the older ones, but at its heart is it actually a terrible movie? We go through it scene by scene to see if it deserves the title or not. Not a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, but right here and now. Join...

This is one of those classic bad movies that's been skewered by the best (MST3K), and it's time that we had our crack at it! The patrons voted for this one and so we're off to the desert to follow Billy as he stumbles around blowing up everything he can with his arm cannon while avoiding bullies and attacks from giant shell-less turtles!

Silent Rage is a cross between your standard Chuck Norris beat'em up and a slasher movie, starring one of the inmates from Shawshank Redemption. Chuck Norris finds himself in a full-blown horror movie here, so it's time for BMR to go through this movie scene by scene and see if Chuck pulls it off, or if this one deserves to stay dead and buried!

One of the original side-scrolling beat'em ups of the 1980s was turned into a movie, so you can probably guess how that turned out. Mark Dacascos and Scott Wolf star as Jimmy and Billy and they (kind of) kick their way through the gangs of a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles. You've got rampaging mutants that look like part of the male anatomy, Alyssa Milano as a gang leader, and renegade mailmen, but is it a bad movie that rules or just straight-up bad? Double Dragon is on the block! Join the...

Tommy Lee Jones has 72 hours to steal back a rocket car, and he wastes 98% of that time rolling around with Linda Hamilton. Does this heist movie deserve a second look from audiences, who have it rated at a 29% audience score? Or does this rocket car need to drive off a cliff never to show its face again?

In an alternate future 1984, Tom Selleck is a beat cop chasing down runaway robots. Gene Simmons (yeah, the dude from KISS) is wreaking havoc with killer robo-spider, and only Tom Selleck and his bulletproof mustache can stop him.
