Haw hawwww! It's the Bandit, and he's back to pester that pesky Buford T. Justice in another smash-em-up crash-em-up... complete mess of a movie. It's Smokey and the Bandit II, and we're talking about it this week on Time Bandits.

This week on the podcast, we go to the beach - but never make it past the sand! That's right, we caught the movie with one of the best posters of all time, Blood Beach. Not from 1980 you say? Well, it played a film festival in 1980 so too bad. We discuss this monster movie starring John Saxon and more, whether or not it is as good as its advertising, and decide if sticking a piece of celery into a baguette counts as a sandwich. Finally, we have our latest playlist of tracks from 1980 for you to listen to, right here. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2NOWlTzZtIkH04opv3zqKU?si=7LvS9d8WSOuQ_BexH_CA4A --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

This week on the podcast, we get lost in time and end up watching Riki-Oh: The Story of Rickyfrom 1991. This cult-classic based on a manga is ultra-violent, ultra-gory, and ultra-amazing! Hear all about it, and check out our playlist of music from the year punk broke too!  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2ynf60Gmd6sTsqDH19QKMF?si=Go8-PTuJSUWdQplIRfndEA --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

This time on the show, we pop into hyperdrive (so we can look at the neat colourful space lines) and then park by an asteroid to talk about Galaxina (1980). This space-comedy-spoof features Dorothy Stratten in the titular role, as well as Stephen Macht (The Monster Squad) as Thor and Avery Schreiber as a character named Capt. Cornelius Butt. That's the level of comedy you can expect here, and you'll either enjoy it or hate it. Which do we land on? Find out on our latest episode, and then go listen to our latest mixtape of music from 1980, right here.

This time on Time Bandits, we're back in 1980 for a swords-and-sorcery epic of British origin. It's the 1980 cult-classic Hawk The Slayer, starring Jack Palance, John Terry and more. It's about revenge, it's about spinny neon circle things, it's about little creatures we don't get to see enough of, and it's about 90 minutes of your time. How do we feel about it? Well you'll have to listen in to find out.  And before you go, check out our latest mixtape of 1980s tunes linked right here! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2fzMER6b47TwBB0rW4tvwg?si=cFAx4GJVR7Syy-ZF4PpKMQ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

This week on the episode, we talk about the infamous 1994 gore-soaked "family" film Tammy and the T-Rex. Wait a minute, 1994? It's true, our time machines broke this week and we ended up in the 90s. We've got the back story on this wild cult classic, plus a new mixtape featuring jam after jam of 90s essentials.

On this episode of Time Bandits, we go back in time to watch the Cannon Films slasher Schizoid - will it be a melodramatic, soapy slasher with giallo influences worth digging up, or did we travel back in time for no reason. Before we dive into that movie, we discuss what we've been absorbing here in 2020, including: The Trial of Mike Diana, Middleditch & Schwartz, and Bedtime.com? You'll have to listen to hear about that part. Don't forget we have a brand-new mixtape of music from 1980, including songs from: Polyrock, Kate Bush, The Buggles and more.  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4BxCEpq5DgaQlvqNp2wo8t?si=VOhAcwqPS-ehKhWySuGPww --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

This week on the podcast, look up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it... The Pumaman (1980)? Yes! And he's having a really hard go of things, from the looks of it. We talk about the 1980 superhero movie from Italy, most known from MST3K and for its ridiculous flying effects.  We talk about the movie, plus what we have been watching in 2020 (Brutalmoose, Flight of the Navigator and Angel Has Fallen) before we create another great mixtape of music from 1980 for you.

This week on Time Bandits, we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Menahem Golan's The Apple! This sci-fi-fantasy musical rock-n-roll experience is surely a singular experience. How did we enjoy experiencing it? You'll have to listen in to our episode to find out.

On the latest episode of Time Bandits, we go back in time to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Alligator (1980). In a long line of Jaws also-rans and sequels, Alligator stands proud with its John Sayles script, wonderfully humorous characters and cast, and reluctance to let many minutes go by without an attack or two.  Before we go back in time, as always, we each detail one thing we are watching or listening to in 2020: Dan: Xerf Xpec's amazing YouTube channel of vintage Japanese music Casey: Patti Harrison's hilarious "Patti Reviews Exotic Animals" Greg: RuPaul's Drag Race (season 12) All of this, plus another playlist of music from 1980 for you to listen to featuring: New Musik, Billy Joel, Peter Gabriel and more.  Listen to the playlist here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4W4e0GEsvWznP51cc5fI3H?si=4QdjNFkIQm29_YZAIEV4Mw --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

On the latest episode of the podcast, we go back in time to celebrate the 40th anniversary of, uh, The Blue Lagoon!

Before that, they talk about pop culture they're thankful for in 2020, aka. the things we're watching now.  And then, they all talk about some music they have added to the third Time Bandits playlist, available now on Spotify. Featuring: The Talking Heads, Steely Dan, and much more. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5mKRHEbhbgmqMp01LTcRI0?si=AEogXLGCRum8mshFsMqOVQ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

This time on the podcast: Greg, Casey and Dan are social distancing, but that's not going to stop them from watching an Italian not-so-Zombie movie! That's right, Nightmare City from 1980 turns 40 and consider this its birthday party! After watching the movie online, everyone got together on voice chat to discuss everything from crusty zombies to how and why a clay statue can bleed. As always, don't forget to listen to this episode's companion playlist on Spotify.  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6HgIx8QRxZpMVR4oJa8mi7?si=Xfsg53CkS8CxuLIDXYemBA Featuring: Simple Minds, Killing Joke, Elvis Costello & The Attractions, XTC, Genesis, Christopher Cross, Essential Logic, Stevie Wonder and more! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message

We're back! Back in time... for a brand-new episode of the new season of Time Bandits. This time around, we're going to travel 40 years into the past to celebrate a film of our choice, and along the way we'll be making throwback playlists based on the month of 1980 we end up visiting. This episode, we are going to check out the Roger Corman produced Star Wars also-ran titled Battle Beyond the Stars! Or is it Battle Amongst the Stars? Either way, this movie is the beginning of a number of major motion picture careers James Cameron who picked up the slack behind the scenes with special effects, ship-building and more. Not only that, this film serves as the meeting-point for some very important movie relationships that would lead to the creation of some huge, huge movies! So were we dazzled by the stories behind the movie more than the movie itself, or is it a really entertaining and charming film? We've got your answers! And finally, all three of us have added tracks to the first-of-many Time Bandits Playlists!

As a part of the first (and last) Modern Superior Holiday Spectacular, the hosts of Time Bandits got up on stage to skewer the 1989 skateboard flick Gleaming the Cube! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message
