Steve and Izzy from EILFM (Everything I Learned from Movies) join Bobby and Mike to discuss the Albert Pyun "classic" that he apparently filmed, dumped off to an editor, and never looked at again. An all female rock band gets the gig of a lifetime, they just have to fly across the galaxy to get there, that sounds fun... right? There has to be SOME fun in this movie... right? There has to be a movie in here... right? Find out on this episode of the bin!

Jul 18, 2024

Matt (from Movie Melt!), Yobo, Bobby, and Mike discuss a German movie about a man whose dick starts talking to him on his birthday. The guys also delve into exciting topics like how much a box costs and proper library foot etiquette. All this... and more!

Jul 11, 2024

Bobby, Brady, Vaughn, and Mike discuss one of the attempts for the Cannon Group to go legit with the John Frankenheimer thriller, 52 Pick-Up. Written by Elmore Leonard (Grindbin all-star for Stick), starring Roy Scheider and Ann-Margret, and featuring incredible performances from John Glover and Clarence Williams III, this movie is a real hidden gem in the Cannon catalog. 

Even stranger, this might not be the first time Cannon tried to adapt this film... 

Jun 26, 2024

Bobby, Chef Robby, fourth chair Vaughn, and Mike talk about the animal attack movie that's actually about a man's insecurities facing baldness. Featuring an incredible performance from Henry Silva, Robert Forester getting multiple police partners killed, and a potentially very problematic relationship; Alligator has eveything you could hope for in a Grindbin movie!

Jun 12, 2024

Welcome to the Grindbin father's day special! Join Wick, Chuck, Bobby, and Mike as they discuss the winner of a recent "good" movie Patreon Poll from writer/director Paul Schrader.

When George C. Scott's daughter goes missing on a church trip, he hires a private investigator (Peter Boyle) to track her down. What ensues is a dive into the seedy underworld of the west coast adult industry, and George C. Scott in the most ridiculous wig you've ever seen.

Jun 3, 2024

Chef Robby, Wick, Bobby, and Mike endure the worst movie we've ever watched on the Grindbin. There have been a lot of intellorable movies on this show but nothing, NOTHING, compares to The Legend of the Roller Blade Seven. From the director of Hell Comes to Frogtown and Baby Ghost, comes the worst excuse for a "movie" ever created.

Thanks to our Patreon member who requested it! (we do really appreciate your support...)

May 22, 2024

Bobby, Yobo, new guest Joe, and Mike talk about what many on letterboxd deems the "worst Burt Reynolds movie". Based on an Elmore Leonard novel (and screenplay) Burt finds himself fresh out of prison and getting caught up in the local Miami crime scene. Strap in for lot of horrible jokes, the return of Jai alai to the bin, the weakest of insects, and Burt getting splinters in his mouth from the most wooden performance ever on the Grindbin. 

May 9, 2024

Lee, Bobby, new guest Mike Bagford, and original Mike discuss the Franco Nero detective movie where he goes to Italy to solve a case but instead finds his estranged son, kisses him on the lips, and then dates Sybil Danning for awhile. But he don't give a damn, he's the Cobra!

May 2, 2024

Part-time guest Tim Yobo, Matt, new guest Greg, and Mike discuss a little known direct-to-video action flick starring Jason Miller (The Exorcist) and featuring the on-screen debut of Grindbin all star Tim Robbins (Franternity Vacation). Like many of the random island action movies we've covered in the past, this is a hidden gem and absolutely bonkers. 

Apr 26, 2024

The boys are back and stuck on a boat in the open sea. After debating for 30 minutes about Milk consumption, Yobo, Bobby, Mike, and new guest John discuss the John Huston CLASSIC the Bermuda Triangle. If you love floating dolls who eat raw meat and extended scenes of debating whether or not a dotor has the energy to cut someone's leg off, this is the movie for you!

Apr 11, 2024

Yobo, Fern, Bobby, and Mike discuss the winner of a recent Patreon poll. A town is flipped upsidedown when a space ship crash lands near Baltimore. It's low budget filmmaking at it's finest. 

Apr 4, 2024

Bobby, Fern, Julie, and Mike discuss the Tony Curtis horror film about his lady friend growing a strange tumor that births a 400 year old demonic Native American spirit. Tony plays a psychic yet somehow didn't see this one coming. 

Mar 27, 2024

Tanner, Luke, Bobby, and Mike celebrate March Madness by discussing the Gabe Kaplan EPIC about college basketball. You ever wanted to watch extended on ball drills in your movie? Did you ever want to see the team win by 40 and never trail? Then this is the sports movie for you!

Mar 13, 2024

Vaughn, Lee, Bobby, and Mike discuss a family film about a kidnapped boy who has his tongue cut out and is raised to be a criminal by his adopted parents David Carradine and Paul L. Smith. It's as wild as it sounds and is a movie (and an episode) worth checking out. 

Feb 28, 2024

Bobby, Fern, and Mike discuss a request from a listener and... we would like to formally apologize Germany. Not only did we not enjoy this movie, we've found a new Tentacles. For whatever reason, if you love this movie, this might be one you want to skip. 

Feb 20, 2024

Bobby, Wick, Chef Robby, and Mike are jacked like hell to see Grindbin all stars James Glickenhaus (Shakedown, McBain) and Robert Ginty (White Fire) return to the bin but all they can think about is how Christopher George (Pieces, Enter the Ninja) cooks a hot dog... Seriously, we are still thinking about it... everyday. 

Feb 6, 2024

Chris in Miami, Jeff, Bobby, and Mike get ready for the big Super Match this Sunday by discussing the lost "football" movie starring Ernest Borgnine, Oliver Tobias, Henry Silva, and Charles Napier. 

The backstory for this movie is legendary but a guest's personal connection to this film uncovered during the episode is mind blowing. 

Jan 24, 2024

Chuck, Tim, Bobby, and Mike discuss the unforgettable Greydon Clarke classic featuring George Kennedy pissed off on a boat with a killer cat. This movie has everything you could ever want: complicated crime plans, maritime law, and paperwork!!!! 

Jan 3, 2024

Bobby, Chef Robby, Jersey James, and Mike break down the proto-buddy cop movie starring James Caan and Alan Arkin as two San Francisco cops who spend most of the time beating the hell out of people; especially if they didn't commit any crimes. try

Dec 28, 2023

Yobo, Matt, Terry, and Mike discuss one of the greatest Grindbin movies yet! Death Machines has EVERYTHING you could ever want from a bin movie: overly complicated criminal plans, milk toast characters who you don't want to root for, excessive paperwork as a plot device, and more! 

Dec 20, 2023

Wick, Yobo, Chris in Miami, and Mike celebrate the holiday season with the classic Santa slasher, Silent Night, Deadly Night. When little Billy's grandpa tries to warn him about the evils of Santa, the kid doesn't listen and his whole life is destroyed. It's a movie, and episode, full of very valuable life lessons just like catatonic Grandpa used to tell you. 

Dec 14, 2023

Pia Zadora finally returns to the bin! Yobo, Bobby, new guest Jeff, and Mike discuss this Pia Zadora, Telly Savalas crime caper in Las Vegas. Despite being financed by Pia's then husband, filmed at his hotel (The Riveria), and simply a vehicle for more Pia screen time, this is a strangely enjoyable movie! So grab a Pia-tina and enjoy extended scenes of Telly gambling and grabbing butts. 

This episode featured some technical difficulties in our first hour. If you're interested in seeing and hearing the almost four hour cut (including live watches of Telly Savalas music videos) check out our Patreon

Nov 30, 2023

Steve and Izzy from EILFM join Bobby, Mary, and Mike as Camvember 2023 comes to a close with the adult film Cameron didn't know he starred in... allegedly. Dixie Ray, eventually cut into an R rated film called "It's Murder Baby" is a noir thriller that features some of the most uncomfortable, exposition laden sex scenes, and a very, very drunk Cameron. It's the perfect, akward way to end 2023's Camvember. 

Nov 22, 2023

Camvember 2023 continues with J.M. Brandt returning to talk the original Slaughter with Bobby and Mike. Surely there are lots of outstanding questions we had from the second movie that are answered here, right? There has to be incredibly backstories for characters we met in the second film, right? There is at least a super computer at this Mexico (South America) base, right?!

Find out the answers to these questions (probably not)... and more!

Nov 16, 2023

Yobo, Daniel, Matt, and Mike talk about the reunion of Cameron Mitchell and Leo Fong! It's a Camvember miracle, right? right?! 

Featuring Cameron drooling over a teppanyaki, extended talk about Necco wafers, and Daniel's new rap persona.
