Thrill Me Podcast

The lads finally get a Don 'The Dragon' Wilson film on the podcast with 1996's blatent Die Hard ripoff, Terminal Rush. Adam and Jared discuss strange editing decisions, poor villains, an over the top 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper and the choice to go with a major monument like the Hoover Dam when you only have the budget to buy a Hoover vacuum cleaner. A list of what they have been watching is also included.

Adam and Jared quickly cover off on their initial thoughts on 2025's romance/slasher movie, Heart Eyes.

Adam returns to the cinema for the first time in six months and joins Jared to discuss this year's confined space thriller, Flight Risk. Ridiculous hair and accents are discussed in depth as well as the sheer stupidtiy of the minimal characters involved. They also run through their latest viewing efforts.

After wading through Dolph's mid-2000's catelogue last episode, Adam and Jared jump back into some sci-fi horrors with 2024's Alien: Romulus. How does it stack up against the classic (and not so classic) entries in the series. The lads give their verdict along with a quick dive into what they have been watching.

Adam and Jared run a stringent eye over Dolph Lundgren's Man of the 2000's application and decide whether or not he can unseat current Man of the 2000's, Thomas Jane.

A trip to the coast gets Adam and Jared in the right head space to cover 1995's Jaws ripoff (in more ways than one), Cruel Jaws. A very short list of what they have been watching and an up or down on an upcoming slasher film round things out.

A listener pick, Adam and Jared dissect the early 90's 'Die Hard in a school' film, Toy Soldiers. The decision making of the bad guys comes under scruitiny as does the amount of action cred you have when you are constanly seen in your underwear. And just how underrated is Louis Gossett Jr? Also, the watch list is brimming with plenty of new films to discuss. Big thanks to Ben for suggesting this movie.

The lads ring in the new year with a higher brow early 80's slasher, 1981's Happy Birthday to Me. Adam and Jared go in depth on the Crawford Acadamy gtop 10, the five hundred red herrings the movie throws up and the need for a good editor. They also cover off on the last movies they have watched for 2024.

A very MERRY CHRISTMAS to all as Jared and Adam finish off our three day Christmas extravaganza with a viewing of John Woo's dialogue free Christmas action film, Silent Night.

Christmas episodes back to back with the little known French horror/thriller Deadly Games next on the agenda. Adam and Jared jump to conclusions as to the villains motivations, are stumped by 80's technology and endlessly wonder about the size of location the movie is set in. Jared also provides a detailed list of what he has been watching while Adam responds with 'I've watched nothing.'

After talking smack about this movie for months, Adam and Jared finally get to look at this years Christmas offer from Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Red One. Will it defy expectations and perhaps be much better than expected. And the lads go through what films they have been watching over the Christmas period.

The lads return to Robert Bronzi territory with the schlocky, Bronson mixed with a werewolf supernatural horror thriller, 12 to Midnight. Has Robert's acting got any better? Does he convince as somebody who is married and can Adam and Jared outrun Tito Ortiz if he is unhappy with their criteque of his acting performance? Jared also provides some insight into what he has been watching. Adam predictibilly fails to add anything to this.

Happy Friday the 13th!!!! A listener asked a question about which Friday movie we would do a commentary on and we decided that Part 5 was the obvious choice. A warts and all deep dive into the film with a warm welcome reserved for the one the only, Demon and those damn enchiladas!!!

Adam and Jared get banged up in Alcatraz with Steven Seagal and Ja Rule for 2002's Half Past Dead. Plenty of it doesn't make sense and the lads wish Kurupt could have been the star and the film could have just been The Rock. They also discuss what they have been watching recently, Red One's release in the cinema and whether urinating in a bottle and handing it to a PA should be a crime.

Things get really weird this week as Jared and Adam wade through the extremely weird 80's body horror movie, Society. Saying that the discussion goes off in some interesting places is the understatment of the year. They also include a lengthy discussion about what they have both been watching recently.

Jared and Adam get doled up into their finest loungewear to present the first annual Haddonfield Community Awards. Who amongst the Emergency Services staff will win a coveted award for their dedication to duty?

Jason Statham takes his love of bees way to far and begins killing everybody in sight in the 2024 action/thriller, The Beekeeper. Jared and Adam turn the heat up on it and try to answer the age old question - To Bee? Or not to Bee? They also spend 30 minutes going through their recent watch lists.

The lads test Jared's bulls roar theory by taking a look at the first sequel in the Jaws franchise, 1978's Jaws 2. Is the shark actually working this time? Do we miss Hooper and Quint? Will the teens in peril make for a better movie? How close is this movie to the original in quality? Big questions require big answers. And as always, they cover off on what they have been watching this week.

After watching the fake Charles Bronson last episode, Adam and Jared get stuck into some real Charles Bronson with 1983's serial killer thriller, 10 to Midnight. The Cannon guys throw everything at the wall with nude killers, weird sex toys and enough exploitation elements to sink a ship. And in the middle of it all, the granite face of Charles Bronson! The lads also throw out their recently seen.

Adam and Jared go back to the Robert Bronzi well to see if he can convincingly act like a priest who looks like Charles Bronson. His methods are unorthadox. His background is murky and he doesn't mind throwing down with family members or firing warning shots at the devil. The lads also include a short recap of what they have been watching this week.
