Not to be confused with that stupid Jimmy Fallon/Drew Barrymore nonsense. Tom and Nick have a blast talking about the notorious 1985 bomb “Fever Pitch,” starring Ryan O’Neal. O’Neal plays Steve Taggart, a Los Angeles newspaper sports reporter assigned to investigate compulsive gambling. He travels to Las Vegas and immerses himself in the gambling world, only to become increasingly addicted himself. His gambling begins to affect his career, finances and relationships, turning his journalistic investigation into a personal battle with addiction. This is widely considered one of the worst movies ever made, and, unintentionally, one of the funniest films of all time. Tom and Nick dissect what went wrong, talk about the previously acclaimed work of director Richard Brooks, why the movie is so incredibly hilarious, and how it’s been unavailable for decades, but is now, inexplicably, being broadcast on Turner Classic Movies next week!! Also, Nick has seen this movie dozens of times, and it is truly his favorite bad movie of all time. [Ep 2]
Tom Hush and Nick Digilio kick off Theater of Trash with the insane beauty of the greatest robot dinosaur love story ever told, 1994’s Tammy and the T-Rex. Denise Richards, Paul Walker, and Terry Kiser lead a cast delivering performances so completely ridiculous and over-the-top that they’re glorious. Tom and Nick dig into what makes this bizarre movie work on so many levels, along with the fascinating story of how it ever got made. They also get into the movie’s 2 very different versions: the straight-to-video, PG-13 family-friendly cut and the absolutely bonkers unrated “gore cut,” packed with outrageous kills and ridiculous violence. Both are awesome. Both are also terrible…and that’s exactly the point! [Ep 1]
