A visually insane movie with impressive sets and costume designs, an Oscar-winning cinematographer, and great dinosaur/creature FX that slightly predate Jurassic Park! All that and more in this endearingly uneven, cyberpunk-influenced adaptation that would have an even bigger cult following if it weren't for the shame of the creatives involved! In addition, K-Tron shares her spoiler-free thoughts on the horror comedy Slotherhouse, while Alex does the same for Bring Her Back, the John Wick spinoff Ballerina, the Shark serial killer thriller Dangerous Animals, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion and Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning (with some additional thoughts from Tim)!

Welcome to another episode of Death Don’t Do Fiction, the AIPT Movies podcast! The podcast about the enduring legacy of our favorite movies! It’s May, which means it’s time for the AIPT Movies podcast’s “Mayhem” series! Where we cover movies that kick ass in the literal sense! In this week’s episode, Alex, Tim, and guest Tony Sedani discuss the messy-yet-beautiful 1991 Bruce Willis action romp, The Last Boy Scout! Sleazy 90's vibes! A mile a minute pace! Satan Claus! Goons in sunglasses! $650 pants! An iconic celebratory jig! Football that's somehow even more dangerous than usual! A stadium with a secret hangout and fireplace! A surprisingly loud, public, and messy "professional" assassination! A guy with the name Joe Hallenbeck who has actually seemingly gone to hell and back! Behind the scenes friction that inspired a character in True Romance! A great musical score from Lethal Weapon & Die Hard's Michael Kamen! A cast that includes a young Halle Berry, Damon Wayans, Danielle Harris, Taylor Negron, and Bruce McGill! A shot of excessive violence and entertainment that's effectively a who's who of 90s action cinema with Tony Scott's visually stunning direction, Joel Silver producing, Shane Black writing endless one liners, and Bruce Willis delivering one of the greatest cigarette-smoking performances of all time! In addition, Tony discusses his Mission: Impossible series rewatch in preparation for “The Final Reckoning,” while Alex shares some spoiler-free thoughts on Fight or Flight, the third movie in the French Netflix action series, Last Bullet, and Final Destination Bloodlines!
