Cinema Chop Shop
This is a movie podcast that goes under the hood of iconic films and genres, examining what works and what should be retooled to make them better.

Shawn, Joey, and Todd are joined by Alley as they dig in to uncover the best deep cuts in Dark Fantasy films.
Joey bears responsibility for picking this episode's watch party, 2003's Despiser. Will its DIY indie charm make this a CCS favorite, or will we despise Joey for all of eternity? Grab this one on Tubi or YouTube and watch along!

Travis and Shawn reconvene to closeout our exploration of "So Bad, They're Good" Martial Arts movies. With legends like "King of the Kickboxers", "Samurai Cop", "Ninja Terminator", and "Undefeatable", it's gonna be a knock-down, drag-out, episode.
The gang kicks off their two-part "Partial Arts" episode with a watch party of the (at one point) lost classic, "Miami Connection". The movie is available to stream on several free services, so watch along and have a few laughs.
