We’ve finally broken through the dystopic hellscape of January films, so we reward your perseverence with two iconic comedy classics in the Flux Capacitor. Don’t worry, VIA VHS stays true to form as we ridicule a sub-par, 1992 animated propaganda film about why trees are good, but human bad. DIRECTOR BIRTHDAY SPOTLIGHT: This week we have two birthday boys in Tobe Hooper, an iconic horror master and B-Movie auteur, along with Frank Darabont, who’s obsessed with prisons and angry e-mails. Tobe Hooper-https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001361/?ref=nvsr_1 Frank Darabont-https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001104/?ref=nvsr_2 FLUX CAPAXITOR- February starts off with a bang as we discuss two amazing comedy classics and a late 90s Mel Gibson action flick. 1999-Payback:ttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120784/?ref=nvsr_1 1994-Ace Ventura:Pet Detective: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109040/?ref=nvsr_1 1974-Blazing Saddles: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071230/?ref=nvsr_1 In this week’s Rewind Review, we decided to do something a little different. Not only did we review an animated film for the first time but we chose a film we adamantly hate! Look, I love trees, I love nature but I hate being preached too, and Fern Gully:The Last Rainforest is a very pretentious and preachy kids movie. Despite being mediocre at best, we discuss the film’s incredible cast that includes Robin Williams, Tim Curry, Christian Slater and both Cheech and Chong. We also examine the similarities between Fern Gully and a certain blockbuster from 2009 by James Cameron, did the highest grossing film of all time rip-off a low level kid’s flick? You be the judge.
