Zapped! vs The Shining

Today we cover Stephen King inspired movies featuring Scatman Crothers.  Scott Baio is a high school student who gains the ability of telekinesis and uses it as any of us would:  to undress girls in public in the teen comedy Zapped!  Then Jack Nicholson moves his family into haunted hotel and decides to kill them when he gets bored in the Kubrick masterpiece The Shining.

Captain America (1990) Vs. Skatetown, USA

Welcome to the podcast where we take apart two movies, debate them, and grade them to see which will be redeemed.  Today we dust off the underrated film from 1990: Captain America. It starred Matt Salinger as Steve Rogers, Scott Paulin as the Italian Red Skull, and Ned Beatty  It never saw the light of day in US theaters, and was a dusty VHS tape passed around at Comic Cons until recent history.  We also review the forgotten roller disco movie:  Skatetown, USA.  Patrick Swayze, in his first role, plays a street tough who "owns" the roller disco.  Scott Baio, Flip Wilson, and Dorothy Stratten also star in this movie which is a series of comedy vinettes, roller disco dance numbers, and band performances.  It has never been legally released on home video in any format.
