Some movies for you to watch... (Patreon)

While you wait for our next episode (well, episodes), we thought we’d toss y’all a few movie recs!

You already know what’s hot on your preferred streaming apps, but less talked about are the many free movies available on YouTube. (Like, officially available from their respective studios -- these aren’t just amateur uploads that made it past the copyright bots.)

1. Spaceballs! 

One of our faves, obviously. This one came out in 1986, and despite being a spoof, it *almost* felt like we got another Star Wars movie. (Still wish the action figures Dark Helmet got caught playing with were real, though.)

2. Bats! 

From 1999, Bats is hardly beloved, but it was always on cable in the early 2000s. If nothing else, it’s nice that this is a straight-up horror movie, because if Bats came out even a few years later, we doubt they would’ve resisted the urge to get totally goofy with it.

3. Over the Top! 

Stallone as a champion arm wrestler in 1987 -- you know the score! Cheesy as hell and with a great soundtrack, it’s the kind of movie that goes great with a ridiculously large Wendy’s order and mismatched socks. You know we’re right.

4. Spiders 3D! 

There are sooo many lower-budget Syfy-style horror movies available on YT, including this gem. Synopsis: “After an old Soviet space station crashes into a New York City subway tunnel, spiders begin mutating into gigantic monsters.” Well, we’re sold!

Enjoy! Keep in mind that while these movies played fine on a desktop computer in the States, we have no idea if they’re blocked in certain regions or on other devices.

We’ll be back (at least) twice this month, with a big show and a bonus show! Stay tuned.
