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.

Joe watches them once, riffs them once - and never watches them again.
This week Netflix imported a holiday film from Brazil and dubbed it - and it was done pretty well actually.
Its a film about a cranky guy, who hates Christmas... who gets all cranky, on Christmas... and ends up Groundhoging Christmas, sort of, thanks to Grandpa cursing him with old man magic, or something. One mistress, two homes, and three dogs later he learns the magic of Christmas.
The last episode of this year's A Very Netflix Christmas - sync the audio up with the Netflix logo and riff along!

From left field, Bethany comes out of holiday movie riffing retirement to join me on this extra special short film.
The Colonel is cooking up some chicken that is too good to not fall in love with... then Mother-in-Law... or actual Mother, I never quite understood her place in the family (as you will hear in the recording) - comes in like a poor-man's Lucille Bluth to ruin the day.
Experience a full Lifetime movie in the span of 15 minutes and hear Bethany's own history that connects her to the actual Colonel Sanders, not the beefy-McBeefcake one.
Joe and Bethany watched it once, and riffed it once with a special Christmas Day episode of A Very Netflix Christmas.

Why stay shackled to the same person all year when you can party with them over all the "holidays" with no commitments? Wait, but isn't agreeing to something like that a commitment?! Oh no, its already falling apart!
Add a dash of a Yoda-like little girl... a non-United States accent... and a raunchy aunt and you have a "holiday" movie that gives you some chuckles between the feel-good moments.
Joe watches it once, and riffs it once before never watching it again. Sync the audio up to the Netflix logo and riff along!

Watch it once, Riff it once. That is the way we do things during A Very Netflix Christmas.
This week, we follow a penny pincher from DC who is tasked to find every reason to shut down Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. Meanwhile, a pilot who can't stop giving has to hide his "dirty secret" or single handedly close the base down due to his actions. Who knows, maybe those CG geckos will bring some luck and the pair will fall in love instead and the Christmas Drop will go off without a hitch.
A ridiculous plot, a young couple who don't care for each other up front who are destined to fall in love, and a mean lady wanting to shut the base down who needs to be shown the true meaning of Christmas... its a recipe for another episode of A Very Netflix Christmas!

Feel the holiday fever with The Rewinders Podcast, or at least Joe. Its that time of the year when movie reviews take a back seat to Modern Holiday Movie Riffing! Sync up the podcast to the Netflix logo of the corresponding movie and have Joe along for your viewing to say stuff - witty or not.
We only watch the movie once - and we riff the movie that one time... why? why would we want to watch these movies a second time?!
Watch as Stacey and Margaret switch places AGAIN, but this time... cousin Fiona joins in the switching! Its like a Las Vegas Cup Game... pick the real Margaret, watch the cups, where is she?
How is this a holiday movie? It happens around Christmas, and they decorate a palace. CHRISTMAS!

One day you are playing a game of muuuuuuuurrrrrrrduuuuuuuuur... and thinking, "its just a game."
Then, comes along a movie about muuuuuuuuurrrrrrrduuuuuuuuur... and... its no longer... just a game.
Its a movie about murder! and a silly one at that. Filled with a bunch of actors you've seen all over the place (your mileage may vary depending on age).
Tune in, and listen to Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan chat about the movie CLUE and tangent to the corners of the Muppet universe. Does Clue hold up after all these years? Is a remake warranted? Will Dan ever watch Escape from New York ever again?! Listen and find out!

In a time... of lockable rotary dial phones, there were two men seeking a way home.
A time of no cell phones, wood-paneled vehicles on our roadways, and no TSA checkpoints at airport terminals.
This, my friends, is the 80s and the world of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
Follow Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they discuss the finer points of the 1987 film and debate if a reboot is necessary or "needed".

Ladies and Gentlemen, you may not want that body of yours snatched. Plus, Guy Ritchie instructed us to NOT SNATCH... but here we are. Plant-Alien-Snatchers are gunna snatch you all up and replace us. There is no hiding, there is only turning into hairy trash.
Join Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan as they ponder the invasion that doesn't seem to stop invading (1956, 1978, 1993, 2007, 2021?). Although, this version - the 1978 version - is hailed as the best of the bunch... does it stand up after all these years. Take a listen and find out!

Take one part Dawn of the Dead... One part Short Circuit... one part horney camp... and one part undiscovered Terminator and you could possibly get the movie, Chopping Mall. Somehow this huge mall caters to many family owned businesses and not chain stores, and one of them is going to host a SECRET - SEXY party for the youth of undefined age. Old enough to know better, young enough to have sex openly in front of their friends or acquaintances. But the movie doesn't stop with that... No, we have malfunctioning mall security robots that use their "non-lethal" tools LETHALLY. Did I mention they are insanely LOUD? Because they are, but no one can hear them. Ladies and Gentlemen, grab your "Cock Starter" kit and cuddle with with this episode of The Rewinders Podcast. Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan discuss the film, the possibility of a reboot and if Dan will ever be the same again.
