Season 02 - Episode – 3 – 1... 2 ... My Coffee's Coming For You

The Adventures in 80s Cinema Podcast is back for another nostalgic trip , and we are heading straight into a haunted fixer-upper!

In this episode, we dive deep into the 1985 horror-comedy classic, House. Step inside the surreal nightmare of troubled novelist Roger Cobb as he battles personal demons and actual monsters hidden behind the walls of his late aunt's estate.

We break down the shift in tone from traditional haunted house scares to dark slapstick comedy, analyze William Katt's brilliant performance as the fragile protagonist, and celebrate George Wendt's fantastic turn as the nosy next-door neighbor.

We also look at the film's incredible practical effects—from the hideous closet monster to the undead Vietnam War veteran—and debate how its unique blend of trauma and humor shaped the horror-comedy genre of the mid-1980s.

Dust off your Walkmans, grab your popcorn, and join us for the ultimate retrospective on the house that greets you with a smile... and kills you with a scream!

Season 1 -Episode - 11 – Eye of the Tiger, man, Eye of the Tiger!

Dust off your satin boxing trunks and crank up the synth, because this week on Adventures in 80's Cinema, Joe and Daisy are firing up the time machine to revisit 1982. We're stepping back into the ring with the Italian Stallion himself for the high-octane, neon-drenched sequel that defined a decade: Rocky III.

After the gritty underdog vibes of the '70s, Rocky Balboa has it all—fame, wealth, and more endorsements than he can count (including a legendary cameo on The Muppet Show). But success has made him "civilized" and soft, setting the stage for a brutal fall at the hands of the most ferocious antagonist in the franchise: James "Clubber" Lang, played by the one-and-only Mr. T.

Season 1 -Episode - 10 – The Karate Kid – Wax on, Wax off!!

Fire up the DeLorean, listeners! This week, Joe and Daisy are crane-kicking their way back to 1984 to discuss one of the ultimate underdog stories of the decade: The Karate Kid.

It's the film that made "wax on, wax off" a household phrase and turned a shower-curtain-wearing Ralph Macchio into a martial arts icon. We're breaking down Daniel LaRusso's journey from New Jersey "fish out of water" to All-Valley Champion, but we're not just talking about the tournament.
