Today on the Wreckfast Club, we're looking at a film that many of our hosts refer to as, 'The Lost Boys with girls.' Which clearly later influenced Chronicle, which is basically 'The Craft with boys'. Things are about to get witchy as we discuss snake-men, experimental surgeries and the underwhelming power of magic, as this week, the Wreckfast Club pulls the old bitch and swait, and presents: The Craft!

We knew we had to come back off of our hiatus with something big and beloved by all! So get ready for the story of dirty grandpa poots, talented ball hunters, people turning into giant apes, and one of the most misguided setups for a sequel we've ever seen. We talk live action animes, solar eclipses and the dangers of being human in fighting franchises. Get ready to get kamehamehammered, as the Wreckfast Club presents: Dragonball E...

Multipass! We talk the confusion of sci-fi films when they're part set in space and part set on earth, we talk mistaken identities, useless future inventions and Jean Paul Gautier's career. There's horrible, gold, fat, elephant monster aliens, there's dog-bollock head aliens, there's Gary Oldman and Ruby Rhod. It's all here in this insane (and insanely good!) film, as this week, the Wreckfast Club presents: The Fifth Element

We're back with a bumper second installment of our retelling of a story about a young wizarding boy who is just trying to do his best in this crazy, crazy world. We talk weird spells that people have in their locker, you'll hear the word 'bow' more than you ever thought possible, we discuss Voldemort making young boys suck his toes, we demand justice for Ludo Bagman and we finally get to see what David Tennant was in this film for....

Hey there Potterheads and casual Gillyweed enthusiasts! Did you miss us? Well we're back baby! Christmas break is over and we're starting the new year with another delve into the wonderful wizarding world. This film is filmed like everyone involved wanted to get it over and done with as quickly as possible. It's a breakneck tour through quidditch cups, tournament challenges, school dances. There's unforgiveable curses and Krum shot...

You may have gorged yourself to bursting, like disgusting little piggies, but there's still one more festive treat to squeeze into your little piggy snout this festive season, and it's part two of our episode on Hook! Pan learns to fly, a child is stabbed and people are remarkably cool about it, one other kid rolls into a big, fat ball, which is how I've been getting around over Christmas. It's all here, in part two of the Wreckfas...

Welcome to jingle month everybody!! When the evil Captain Hook travels to our world and steals his children, an old Peter Pan must travel to Neverland and remember who he was in order to get them back. Is this a Christmas film? It's got snow in it. We talk old, fat, Pan, we talk Never-boys, we chat sexy mermaid kisses, and the age old question everyone has been asking about plane windows. It's all here in Part One of The Wreckfast ...

The sexiest man of all time, starring alongside iceman from Top Gun, in a Western? Oh, you best believe this is peak Wreckfast Club fodder. Get ready for the invention of crotchless chaps, why you shouldn't wear any form of red around Kurt Russell, a re-enactment of the famous 'NO' scene, and general nonsense about horsies, as this week, the Wreckfast Club presents: Tombstone!

Dave once had an extensive dvd collection consisting of every Arnie film ever made, plus an odd little film called Music and Lyrics, that he doesn't remember buying or having bought for him. It stars a 47 year old Hugh Grant, getting off with a 31 year old Drew Barrymore. They both sing songs in it. It also 'stars' Everybody Loves Raymond's brother and Sally from Third Rock From The Sun. Nobody remembers this film and it sounds com...

Today we are thoroughly exploring the John Carpenter Bell Curve as we ask, why did he make films designed to drive dave off the deep-end? We discuss big, burly, hairy men who aren't Kurt Russell, alien invasion plots, defenestrations and dry will defacing. We also enjoy a rendition of the 'interesting' soundtrack and drunkenly retelling the longest fight scene in cinematic history. Obey. Consume. Reproduce. The Wreckfast Club prese...

"Hey!" We hear you shout, "It's nearly the end of spooky month and we've not had a single horror film from the Wreckfast Club, what gives?" To which we reply, we gives, and we also takeths away, for we are your gods. But, we are benevolent, so here is what you've been asking for, a notorious 80s schlock, exploitation, slasher. The acting is some of the worst you'll see, the deaths are laughably over the top (and largely avoidable) ...

The heist is on which means everything is planned. Even the things that seem unplanned. Or even when the plan seems to go wrong. Or even when there's no possible, logical way the events that happen could ever be part of a plan. Get ready for smug, slick vault robbing, a rag-tag collection of very specifically skilled people, the worst accent you've ever heard and a lot of twists and turns (but no stakes) as the Wreckfast Club prese...

Get ready to have nightmares about freakishly flappy turtle mouths as we look back on an obnoxious, cash-in, nostalgia inducing, wonder of a film, that launched the career of a young Sam Rockwell. The dialogue is overwhelmingly 90s, the soundtrack is weirdly 80s, the fight scenes are surprisingly good but all-in-all, it's a film where none of the main characters ever need to interact with one-another. Still, it's a lot of fun, as t...

In a world of precognition and preventing crimes before they happen, today's film forces us to ask ourselves the difficult questions like, is it okay to shave people and make them float in suspiciously seminal looking water? Would you rip your own eyes out to get away with murder? If everyone drives cool future cars on rails, why would anyone still drive a none rail car? All this and more as today, the Wreckfast Club presents: Mino...

The year is 2016. Britain has voted to leave the EU. Game of Thrones and Fleabag are on the tele. The two hottest, Hollywood stars in the world right now are Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence. Fresh off his stand-out performance in Guardians of The Galaxy, studio execs decide it would be cheaper to also film Pratt's next film in space, rather than pay to come back to Earth. That's how this film came along. A film with an interestin...

If you're a fan of the Street Fighter game franchise and it's colorful cast of instantly recognisable characters, then we suggest you look away now! This film is Street Fighter in name, sure, but I'd you're expecting streets, fighting, signature moves and game-accurate, sexy, costumes - then you're shit out of luck my friend!

In a war torn, alternative future, giant mechs called jaegers are humanities last defence against enormous monsters coming out of a breach in the Pacific ocean. The jaeger pilots are rock stars and humanity is doing pretty well for itself (those smug bastards). It all goes Pete Tong when the government decides to scrap this vital, publicly funded health service, in favour of wasting billions on grand, but ultimately innefectual ini...

A landmark episode of the Wreckfast Club for number 150 as we finally do a Tarantino film. But not a film he directed. Get ready to hear if Dave thinks he could give himself a dirty Tarantino, why it's weird that Tarantino wrote his own character and the migratory habits of ducks. There might even be a little bit of talk about the film, who knows? As this week, the Wreckfast Club presents: From Dusk Till Dawn
