Jingle All the Way: “It’s Turbo Time!” Adam Darby is back to make Darth and Jason feel as old as possible. Young Adam was FOUR in 1996, you guys (he totally missed the Olympics in Atlanta). But he made up for his glaringly young age with his killer Arnold impressions. He is accompanied by his delightful girlfriend, Alyssa, who is …
Home Alone: “You Guys Give Up, or Are You Thirsty for More?” In case you wonder why you suddenly can’t hear him, Jason had to abandon his own podcast (McCallister style) mid-episode.

Fire in the Sky: “They took him.” Excuse me, waiter? I’d like to order an alien movie, light on the aliens and heavy on the trucker caps.

To that end, Darth and Jason have to ask: If someone can’t pass a …
The Emperor’s New Groove: “BOOM, BABY!” #Hindsighters, Darth and Jason thought they would continue to provide some palate cleansing episodes between Halloween and Christmas for your listening pleasure.

The Princess Bride: “Anybody Want a Peanut?” #Hindsighters, Darth normally writes her show notes with a mixture of condescension and sarcasm. She has to make an exception for this particular movie, however, because it’s simply too perfect to critique.

Aladdin – 10,000 Years Will Give You SUCH A CRICK IN THE NECK!

The Conjuring takes place in a time when your diagnosis …
Shivers: They Came From Within! (Phrasing, boom!) Hindsighters, steele yourselves for bodily and sexual mutilation in Shivers, where super-rapey parasites take over the residents of an upscale condo. In David Cronenberg’s wildly disturbing directorial debut, we venture back to the swinging 70s, when the women were braless and there was an ashtray at every elevator. Seriously, tune in to this …

Are You Afraid of the Dark?: “Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society…” Back in the day, when Melissa Joan Hart was the queen of Nickelodeon (when it was still worth watching), there was this spooky show about campfire stories.
