Podcast Collab Special 1: Frankenhooker with Ross and Tripp from 'A Tripp Through Comedy' and Bottom Five Girlfriends
Attention Filmjitsu listeners! With no reason beyond a desire to watch and review a b-movie with a respected pair of other podcasters, Mike and Jay invited Ross Bratin and Tripp Burton from the movie-review pod A Tripp Through Comedy for their first Podcast Collab Special! And what movie could possibly warrant enough discussion for four film podcasters? Why Frankenhooker of course! This 1990 horror-comedy updates Mary Shelly's classic tale by moving it to New York City and filling it with hookers and "super-crack." Among Mike and Jay's all-time favorite b-movies, will Ross and Tripp be as enthusiastic about a film featuring the tagline "A terrifying tale of sluts and bolds?" Find out by giving the extended main review a listen and then stick around as all four hosts count down their Bottom Five Girlfriends, lists that have at least one heavily-debated hot-take as well as one unanimous pick! So put on your six-inch platform heels, don your best purple bra and get ready for 90 minutes of fun, because Filmjitsu and A Tripp Through Comedy are teaming up and asking you, "Wanna Date?!?"

Episode 56: She-Devil and Bottom Five Team Ups
As "Hot Filmjitsu Summer 2025" concludes, Jay "Streep-slaps" Mike with the Meryl Streep grenade he annually pulls the pin on. This year Mike had to endure "She-Devil," a 1989 "comedy" about a housewife seeking revenge on her philandering husband by punishing the high-society romance novelist who stole him. Featuring the unlikely combo of Meryl Streep and Roseanne Barr as its headliners, "She-Devil" was the perfect choice to partner with the guys' Bottom Five Team Ups, a list of promising—or at least intriguing—marquee matches that wound up disappointing in some way. After the guys finish talking about everyone from Elvis to Estelle Getty, they take a moment to offer their respects to another great talent that recently passed with a game of Kick Two, Pick Two. And, as always, the cycle of mayhem continues with Mike revealing what Jay's next cinematic punishment will be.

Episode 55: Weekend at Bernie's II and Bottom Five Islands
Mike sends Jay back to the beaches of 1993 with Weekend at Bernie’s II, the definition of an unnecessary sequel that doubles down on absurdity by giving everyone’s favorite dead guy a tropical vacation, a voodoo curse, and an uncanny ability to boogie. Will Jay find the sun-soaked slapstick charming, or will Bernie’s reanimated antics leave them washed ashore in cinematic despair? After the main review, the guys island-hop through their Bottom Five Islands, a countdown of movie atolls, sand traps, and forgotten rocks that prove not all paradise is worth visiting. Then, it’s time for another heated round of Dueling Double Bills, where surprise titles must be paired with equally unexpected cinematic companions. Finally, Jay leaves Mike stranded with his pick as this "Hot Filmjitsu Summer" of punishment concludes. So grab your sunscreen, pack your conch shell, and remember: dead men may tell no tales, but they sure can ruin your vacation.

Episode 54: Superman IV: The Quest for Peace and Bottom Five Super Powers
As the 2025 version of Superman cleans up at the global box office, Jay sends Mike to 1987 to watch the most maligned version of "the man of steel" this side of anything Zack Snyder touched. Superman IV: The Quest for Peace was Christopher Reeve's final screen outing as the character which began with the largely beloved '78 Superman. Will their respect for the actor's undeniable skill and charisma withstand a movie featuring "Nuclear Man" as its main villain? Find out in Mike's main review and then stick around as the guys count down their Bottom Five Super Powers, a list of extraordinary abilities they find anything but. After that, the co-hosts dust off Kick Two, Pick Two to pay tribute to one of Mike's fallen heroes, after which he wipes his tears by assigning Jay the next film that'll keep this "Hot Filmjitsu Summer" a cinematic scorcher!

Episode 53: Deep Rising and Bottom 5 Unintentional Porn Titles
After years of slapping Jay with a cinematic tortilla the size of a cruise ship, Mike shows mercy and assigns Jay a Filmjitsu-team favorite... set on a cruise ship. On paper, there's no way 1998's "Deep Rising" could earn a positive review, for not only does it have a title that makes filmgoers do a double-take, but it also has Treat Williams as the headliner and is directed by the guy responsible for "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra." But in a "hear me out" for the ages, Jay—and Mike—explain why "Deep Rising," and indeed all b-movies, are worthy not only of your time, but your love as well! And speaking of love, how about that title!? After fawning all over, "Deep Rising," the guys list off their Bottom Five Unintentional Porn Titles, movies with names that make you blush when you mention what you were up late watching last night! After that, this saucy theme is kept alive during a game of Dueling Double Bills until, finally, Jay reveals what's in store for Mike on the next episode. So sit back and grab some lotion and Kleenex because it's summer and time to turn on Filmjitsu!
