The Rewinders Podcast rewinds - and reboots - movies from the 80s and 90s that we watched as kids. We talk about what is remembered and felt about it as a child. Then, we determine if the movie still holds up. In between that we sing, make jokes, and act dumb in general. Current hosts of the Podcast are Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan. Movies are reviewed on a bi-weekly basis and are released on Monday mornings.

Monday Aug 17, 2020
These demons want you to explore the pleasure found in pain. They are the real givers in a relationship of demonic proportions. Plus, Pinhead is just one dapper fella. I imagine it must take a long time to put those pins in every morning - making them so uniform, orderly, and straight. I bet he has a pin-butler or pin-valet or whatever they are called, who come into your quarters to help you get ready in the morning, and he is all like "Sir, are you ready for your pinning this morning?" and Pinhead will sigh and nod - he is really starting to think maybe its a little gauche to continue the pins-in-the-head routine... but the pin-butler is just so damn good, and he is on contract for the next year... Pinhead is not going to just throw that money away.
Where was I? Oh yes, Pin-butler...
Join Lee and Joe as they discuss chains, hooks, blood, and skinless ladies before determining if this movie still holds up.

So, I hear you want an in-ground pool, huh? Gather round kids, I have a story for you. A story of a family that thought it would be "cool" to have an in-ground pool. But, what they didn't know was that they would escavate buried caskets accidentally.
And we all know spirits don't like it when you win a game of hide-and-seek after having their remains hidden... right??? RIGHT?!?!?!? Well, they don't.
So, the children of the family will suffer the fate of animated clown dolls, animated hungry trees, automatic scoot floors, and the most useful static on an analog TV ever.
Don't peel off your face, but do listen to Lee and Joe discuss Poltergeist and determine if it still holds up.

Monday Aug 17, 2020
Puah puah puah puahhhhleeeeeze take some preventative aspirin or naproxen before watching this movie. It will give you a headache. Outside of that, this is a fun adventure in mixing HAND ANIMATION with live action in a film.
Roger Rabbit sees pictures of his wife playing patty-cake with another man and goes crazy. The plot goes thicker as a highway is being proposed to bulldoze right through Toontown. Thing get real crazy real fast in this movie, but since cartoon tricks are available to use in this real world - there are even zanier solutions to the crazy problems.
Plus, who doesn't want drinks delivered to you by cartoon penguins!?
Lee, Joe, and Ben discuss the film and determine if it still holds up.
