Can a movie penned in a weekend be great? Can the studio that brought us Superman IV and Masters of the Universe produce a great movie? Is Madmartigan great? What really is great anyway? These questions and more will be answered as Dave and Seth discuss the Cannon Films production of "Cyborg" starring Jean Claude Van Damme. This movie will spoil your supper by filling you up on action while not providing any nutrional substance, but you won't care. Who needs vitamins, or plot for that matter? This movie is a snapshot of 80s b-movie action and we are glad to have watched it, we hope you will be too!

The 1980s helped define the buddy cop genre, Turner and Hooch changed the formula by including a dog as the buddy. The other film of that year to feature a dog was K9 and who remembers that? This movie was so influential that Seth's family even acquired a Dogue de Bordeaux, apparently they do drool a lot. We are joined this week by our friend Frank, this epidsode comes again from our archive of recordings made before we worked on fine-tuning the audio quality.
