It’s Halloween, which can only mean one thing — time for the Bloody Good Screen crew to dive headfirst into some gloriously dodgy sequels!

This week, Mark, Taz, Niall, and Marcus tackle the sixth entries in three legendary horror franchises:

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers

Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare

Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives

From cult chaos and killer comebacks to dream demons and undead machete-swingers, we’re celebrating spooky season by asking one simple question: which horror icon nailed their sixth round the best?

Grab your popcorn, crank up the spooky tunes, and join us for a Halloween episode full of laughs, nostalgia, and a lot of questionable continuity.

This week on Bloody Good Screen: 90’s Movie Club, Mark, Niall, and Marcus dive into two very different classics from the decade that defined blockbuster cinema.

First up, we go on the run with Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive (1993), one of the greatest cat-and-mouse thrillers of the 90’s. Then, we swap suspense for slapstick with Leslie Nielsen in Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991), a comedy sequel packed with outrageous gags and deadpan brilliance.

Along the way, we also chat about our latest film watches, from past classics (or not) to modern releases, giving you plenty of recommendations for your next movie night.

If you love 90’s films, action thrillers, or classic comedy spoofs, this is the episode for you.

This week on Bloody Good Screen: Movie Club 90s Edition, we're diving headfirst into two of the most explosive, over-the-top sci-fi action flicks the decade had to offer: Paul Verhoeven’s satirical bug-blaster Starship Troopers and Michael Bay’s asteroid-smashing epic Armageddon.

Join Mark, Niall, and Marcus as they relive the glory (and chaos) of giant alien insects, questionable military propaganda, and Bruce Willis saving the world with nothing but oil rig grit and Aerosmith ballads. Is Starship Troopers a misunderstood masterpiece or just a gory space romp? Does Armageddon still make us cry… or cringe?

Grab your flamethrowers and space shuttles – it's time to settle into some proper 90s mayhem.

This week on Bloody Good Screen: 90’s Movie Club, we’re diving into a double dose of Arnie as we tackle two iconic — and wildly different — classics from the golden age of Schwarzenegger cinema.

First up, it’s memory implants, triple boob and Martian mayhem with Paul Verhoeven’s sci-fi epic Total Recall. We break down the mind-bending plot, the incredible practical effects, and question — was it all just a dream?

Then, we swap bullets for blackboards as Arnie goes undercover in Kindergarten Cop. From tough guy to lovable teacher, we talk heartwarming moments, chaotic classroom scenes, and where “It’s not a tumor!” became the most quotable line of the decade.

Expect plenty of nostalgia, 90's cinema and music chart trivia, and laughs as we pit action Arnie against wholesome Arnie in this ultimate 90s face-off!

GET TO THE CHOPPER!
