They might not get talked about as much as other iconic horror franchises, but the first three Hellraiser movies are all fantastic. And in Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, Pinhead gets restless in Hell and decides he'd like to wreak some havoc on Earth, untethered by the laws governing him in the underworld. Come for another great Doug Bradley performance, stay for a new cast of Cenobites (and dodge those killer CDs).

Bats (1999) | A '90s Creature Feature for All the Chiroptophobes Out There

We love our '90s creature features here on the show, and while 1999's Bats delivers on some pretty gnarly-looking bats, it lacks in most other areas that would make it a horror classic. Still, this is absolutely worth checking out if for no other reason than to marvel at the fact that this entire movie — from finished script to its theatrical release — was made in just over five months.

In the 1990s, a horned-up nation watched with bated breath as Fox Mulder and Dana Scully made their big-screen debut, the possibility of these two finally kissing hanging heavy in the air. It wouldn't come to pass in this one, but 1998's X-Files: Fight the Future is a great sci-fi thriller that deftly bridges the divide between hardcore fans of the show and its extensive mythology and those who have never seen an episode.

Shownotes
Dick Tracy is Warren Beatty's lifelong obsession, and though he maintains a death grip on the rights to the character to this day, he did give us one of the most visually striking comic-book movies ever made. Though it feels like this 1990 film has faded somewhat into obscurity, it remains full of bold choices, fantastic design, and some of your favorite actors of the time doing the craziest things. What's not to like?

In this episode, we sit down with production designer Patrick Sullivan, who has had an incredible 30-year career in the industry, working on big budget blockbusters, Oscar-winning films, and everything in between. We talk to him about his career, but perhaps most importantly, he was a set designer on 'Twister' and we put him in the hot seat, grilling him on just how in the world the food looks so good during that scene at Aunt Meg's table. Have you been chasing a steak that looked as good as the ones in this movie your whole life like we have?

Forgive me for being one of those "back in my days" guys, but back in my day, we kids freaking loved to read. Macaulay Culkin's 'The Pagemaster' (1994) feels like the culmination of a generation's obsession with reading and disappearing into our own imaginations, something that now feels like a lost art.

There are plenty of movies out there that make you think, "This was an Oscar winner?" Not to take anything away from 'As Good as It Gets,' but hindsight does make you wonder why exactly voters were so enamored with this one.

Okay, we wouldn't necessarily call this movie "great," because it makes a ton of unforced errors. But there's still a lot to like here, including one of the most incredible climactic scenes ever put on film. Keanu Reeves was probably right to pass on this one (and Sandra Bullock basically had to do this), but 'Speed 2' is a fascinating film - and occasionally pretty solid.

Shownotes
Nobody could ever accuse Kevin Costner of not taking huge swings throughout his career, and sometimes those huge swings resulted in Oscar victories. The pinnacle of Costner's career might have come with 1990's 'Dances with Wolves,' which perfectly married his penchant for bold storytelling and his personal vested interest in exploring and unpacking the myth of the American west.

For those of us who grew up in the 1990s and enjoyed a sick day or two, 'The Jerry Springer Show' was inescapable. The controversial and raunchy show was one of the biggest cultural touchstones of the decade and remains in the zeitgeist to this day.

We're starting off this year's holiday celebration by talking about one of our favorite family 90s Christmas movies - 1994's 'The Santa Clause!' Scott Calvin is what appears to be an awful father, forever changed by becoming Santa Claus, while his ex-wife and her new husband Neil attempt to annihilate the magic of Christmas for Scott and Laura's young son Charlie. Essentially, none of the adults come off all that great here - but it's still a holiday classic!
