Whether it's for planning an ambush, escaping a crime scene, staging an elaborate fight, or simply used to get from point A to point B via some solid rock, the tunnel has been reliable since it was first conceived over …

Boogie Nights is a movie we've mentioned a lot on the show. It was released in 1997, and I don't think I've seen it since then! Time to revisit it and see if this holds up after all these years!

With Reegs having been thrashed by a golf ball wielded by his youngest and Sidey committing avicide earlier in the day, the stage is set for another perfect episode of Bad Dads Film Review. This week’s show sees us shamelessl...

Number 5 is alive. But sadly so is casual racism and lazy story telling. We watched Short Circuit. A film we all enjoyed as kids and probably should have left it that way!

Alternative facts, post truth, yes it really is the age of bullshit as far as reality is concerned but movies that are based on real events have always captured the cinemagoer's imagination. Our Top 5 Movies Based On A True …

Kevin Smith takes occasional time out from swooning over us on Twitter to make movies. One of those films forms the subject of this week's Midweek Mention. We watched Clerks and if you listen closely to this podcast, you can …

The train was invented by Englishman Dr Glenjamin Train back in the summer of 1997 when he realised what an incredible name he had for a new form of transportation. No of course, I'm being facetious: the truth is that …

Peter Andre loves The Burbs. He has threatened violence against his fellow hosts if they don't like this movie. This could get ugly!

Sidey pointed out to me this week that our podcast is not for film experts but film enthusiasts which is obvious really because there's little of insight to be had in this weeks show. The distinction that our favourite tattoo...

Our podcast is alive...With the SOUND OF MUSIC! Peter Andre and Sidey have already outed themselves a big Sound of Music fans. What about the others? If you've been on twitter this week you'll know Reegs thoughts. One thing t...

It may not be obvious to our listeners but we do usually put quite a lot of thought into our choices for each weeks podcast, whether it's to link the main feature and kids tv programme thematically or to ensure …

Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard's 2011 THE CABIN IN THE WOODS is a postmodern comedy which takes the familiar tropes and conventions of horror movies to unexpected places. Witty, fun and so incredibly meta that it works both as ...

Ah the humble hat: giver of shade, cooler of neck, warmer of head, is there anything they can't do to aid the cranial region? Loads probably, but that's not important right now. What is important is the Top 5 Movie …

This is a trip down memory lane. It's a movie that Sidey studied at school and that Dan went to see at the pictures on it's opening night. We watched The Third Man, the classic film noir, Harry Lime bootlegging …

With the Bad Dads on the brink of implosion and Dan utterly oblivious the best way to lighten up the mood is for a quick trip to that happiest of places: the graveyard. Not for sex but for the Top …

Risky territory here, as we take our first look at the work of the Coen Brothers. Risky in that I'm going to be very disappointed if any of the guys didn't enjoy this movie! Blood Simple is the 1984 debut …

75% of the Bad Dads wear glasses which it turns out is a decent representation of the general public according to The Vision Council who I've never heard of. That seems like an awful lot if you compare that to …

Stuntman and fight choreographer turned writer and director Jesse V. Johnson's third collaboration with English martial artist Scott Adkins was 2018's THE DEBT COLLECTOR, a superior DTV action crime-thriller. Adkins plays Fre...

Stop the press! Who is Peter André? Well, you're about to find out as this week’s show is brought to you from the mind of the fanatical turophile himself. The second Indochina war waged from 1955 to 1975 with U.S. …

Peter Andre had fond memories of the 1992 Brian De Palma movie RAISING CAIN and with none of the other dads having seen it, the midweek mention was the perfect place to settle down and discuss this feverishly ludicrous psycho...

As the Europeans deify another bunch of hopelessly overpaid man-children so too the Bad Dads cash in with an episode devoted to that most infantile of sports, football. Bad Dad Dan is something of a football fanatic and has a...

Justin Kerrigan's HUMAN TRAFFIC is an exploration of a particular late 90's youth culture: the living for the weekend chemical generation whose hedonism was centred around drug taking and pounding basslines in the super clubs...

Staircases have always played a vital role in cinema; any time our hero or villain needs to ascend or descend a level, the humble stair is there to allow it to happen. Ripe for injecting symbolism into a scene or …

Peter Andre has never seen Shane Meadows genre-smashing 2004 thriller DEAD MAN's SHOES so we sat down this week to watch it. Paddy Considine plays Richard, a former paratrooper returning to the provincial English town where h...
